He later learns the reality of his friend’s situation and understands the importance of giving the best of what he has without expecting anything in return, other than the reward of Allah. He also learns that giving in charity is not solely about donating money but involves helping others by listening to their problems and finding solutions by volunteering your time, and your skills and talents.
