A Supplication Answered.









Abu Abdullah bin Ja'far, better known as Al-Balkhi, relates: "One day,heavy winds and torrential rains destroyed the field of a woman I knew who lived in the desert.People went to console her, and all she did was to raise her gaze to the sky and say : 'O Allah, all hopes is in you, you are the best to replace that which is lost,and in your hand is a replacement for what has been destroyed.So deal with us in a manner that is befitting of you, for our provision is from you, and we turn for all of our hopes to you'.Only a short time passed before a very affluent man,whom we did not know,came to us.And when we told him what had happened, he bestowed upon her 500 dinars."
