The ship's owners tried one expert after another, but none of them
could figure but how to fix the engine. Then they brought in an old
man who had been fixing ships since he was a youngster. He carried a
large bag of tools with him, and when he arrived, he immediately went
to work. He inspected the engine very carefully, top to bottom.
Two of the ship's owners were there, watching this man, hoping he
would know what to do. After looking things over, the old man reached
into his bag and pulled out a smallhammer. He gently tappedsomething.
Instantly, the engine lurched into life He carefully put his hammer
away. The engine was fixed! A week later, the owners received a bill
from the old man for ten thousand dollars.
"What?!" the owners exclaimed. "He hardly did anything!"
So they wrote the old mana note saying, "Please send us an itemized bill."
The man sent a bill that read:
Tapping with a hammer $ 2.00
Knowing where to tap $ 9998.00
Effort is important, but knowing where to make an effort in your life
makes all the difference. Knowledge in Islam is highly valued.
Knowledge will benefit us in this world and in the hereafter.
