and generous and always remembered Allah (SWT). One day Shaikh
Abu-ar-Rabie (RA) went to her village. He had been told that she had a
goat that gave both milk and honey.He bought a new bowl and went to
see the goat. When he got there, he was shown the goat and he milked
it. Sure enough, sweet white milk came gushing out. Shaikh
Abu-ar-Rabie (RA) drank tohis fill and then he asked they got the
goat. She narrated to him an amazing story.
She said, "There was a time when we were very poor and had nothing but
a she-goat. When Eid-ul-Adha came around, my husband suggested that we
sacrifice the goat and have a feast. The she-goat was our only means
of sustenance so I reminded my husband that Allah hasnot made it
necessary for us to sacrifice an animal under such circumstances.
Therefore, we spared the goat till the next Eid-ul-Adha. As chance
would have it, we had a guest onthat very same day. Since Allah has
commanded us to entertain our guests, I asked my husband if he would
now slaughter the animal and I would cook its meat for our guests.
Myhusband took the goat outside behind a wall, lest the children
should cry on seeing it killed. A little while later another goat
appeared bearing an exactresemblance to our own. By Allah! This was a
blessing. A miraculous she-goat that yields both milk and honey was
sent down to us as recompensefor feeding our guests."
Lady Fiddah often reminded her children thatthe goat feeds on what
grows in their hearts. "So long as your hearts continue to be noble
and un-tarnished by evil, its milk will remain good andsweet, but as
soon as yourhearts become false, its milk will also turn bad. Guard
your hearts against evil and Allah SWT will make everything beneficial
for you."
