*40 Hadīths For Children With Stories*
*Episode 6: A Ghost*
Once upon a time, a trader was coming back home late at night. Suddenly he saw an old, poor black man preparing to spend the night next to a wall. No one accepted him into their houses fearing that their children would be scared of him. The trader decided to help him. He took him into his house, offered him hot soup, gave him clean clothes and a room to stay.
In the middle of the night, the old man sleeping near the window suddenly woke up with a noise. He saw that two burglars were trying to enter the house through the window.
The black man raised his hands and shouted loudly;
"What are you doing there?"
"Oh my mother! A ghost!" Screamed the burglars when they saw the black man in white pajamas, and they threw themselves from the window. One of them broke his leg and the other injured his head. Because of the noise, the trader and his family woke up and they captured the burglars.
How wonderful is the reminder of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (Blessings and Peace of Allāh be upon him):
والله في عون العبد ما كان العبد في عون اخيه
رواه مسلم
*"Certainly Allāh helps His servant, as long as he helps his brother!"*

*Pearls Of Motivation*
Your journey is yours alone. Not everyone will understand it or like it. It’s ok. Use the pain of the past for the strength you need today.
