**Aba Hashim visited Imam Hadi (PBUH) to complain about poverty. Before he spoke, the Imam reminded him of Allah’s greatest blessings—faith, health, and contentment—showing that true richness lies in what we possess spiritually, not materially. The Imam then gifted him 100 Ashrafis and taught that with every hardship comes ease.**
This inspiring story from the life of a companion of the Prophet (PBUH) reminds us that true strength lies in trusting God and making use of the abilities He has given us. With just a single piece of wisdom — “Whoever shows self-sufficiency, God will make him self-sufficient” — he transformed his life from hardship to dignity. A beautiful lesson in faith, effort, and divine provision.
