A mosque imam in London used to take a bus to travel. Sometimes he pays the fare directly to the bus driver (not the conductor). One time he paid the bus fare, then immediately sat down after receiving a change from the driver.
After he counted, turns out the driver's change from the excess is 20 cents. There is the imam's intention to return the rest of the change because it is not his right. But it occurred to her mind not to return it, anyway just a dime that is not so valuable.
Generally people also do not bother in this way. After all, how much penny does the driver get for the rest of the passenger's payment that is not returned by most drivers because it is just a loose change, meaning the driver does not lose if he does not return the 20 cents.
The bus stops at the priest's dismissal stop. Suddenly the priest paused before he got out of the bus, handed 20 cents to the driver and said, "Here's your money, your change is over 20 cents that is not my right." The driver picked it up with a smile and said, "Are not you the new imam in this city? I have long thought to come to your mosque to know more about Islam, so I intentionally test you with the excess change. I want to know your attitude. "As the priest stepped off the bus, his knees felt weak and almost fell to the ground, until he clung to a pole close to him and leaned back.
His gaze looked up at the sky and said, "O Allah, I almost sold Islam for only 20 cents." (Al-Brithani wa amaanatul Imam, Ahmad Khalid al-Utaiby). So preach not only with the proposition, but also with morals, so that people do not get away from Islam because of our behavior that is not in line with what Islam outlines.
Every one of us is sohibul Islam (the bearer of good name of Islam). Do not think when we do bad just our bad name but also the name of Islam we are religious with him. In each chest we have a good name of Islam brought everywhere.
Isyhadu bi ana muslimun! (Watch that I am Muslim!)
