For children, - Islam and Greed

Abbasid Caliph Haroon Rashid desired that any one who had seen the
Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) in his lifetime be brought before him.
After some time a very old woman was brought before the Caliph Haroon
Rashid. The Caliph Haroon Rashid asked the old woman, "Did you see
Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) yourself?" She said, "Yes! Oh Sir." The
Caliph Haroon Rashid then asked her if she remembered any narration
from him. She said yes and said,"When old age comes two things become
young, one is hope (lofty aspirations) and the other is greed."The
Caliph Haroon Rashid thanked her and gave her one hundred dinars. The
woman thanked the Caliph Haroon Rashid and she was taken back.
Half the way some thought passed through her mind and she desired to
be brought before the Caliph Haroon Rashid once more. When she was
shown in, the Caliph Haroon Rashid asked, "Well, why have you come
back?" She said. "I just came to inquire whether the monies you gave
me were once for all or is it to continue every year?"
The Caliph Haroon Rashid thought. "How true is the Holy Prophet
Muhammad (SAW) word?" she has hope of life even now and she has greed
for money too. The Caliph Haroon Rashid said, "Don't worry; you will
be paid every year." She was taken back but on the way she breathed
her last.
