    In a quiet village far away from the city, there lived a poor man named Musa. He owned nothing but a small mud house and a rusty hoe. Every morning before the sun rose, Musa would walk to the farm barefoot, hoping to find enough food to keep him alive for another day.

    The villagers often mocked him because of his ragged clothes and empty pockets. Children laughed when he passed by, and even some elders refused to greet him. Yet, Musa never complained. He had a kind heart, always smiling and saying “God provides.”

    One evening, as Musa walked home tired and hungry, he saw a little boy crying by the roadside. The boy had lost his way and was starving. Without hesitation, Musa gave the boy the only piece of yam he had saved for his dinner. The boy ate, and together they found the boy’s family.

    Unknown to Musa, the boy’s father was a wealthy trader who had been searching for his son all day. Overwhelmed with joy and gratitude, the man promised to reward Musa. At first, Musa refused, saying, “I only did what is right.” But the trader insisted and gave Musa land, clothes, and enough money to live a better life.

    From that day, the poor man was no longer mocked. He became respected, not for his wealth, but for his kindness. And whenever anyone asked him how he rose from poverty, Musa would simply smile and say:

     

    “A poor man is never truly poor when his heart is rich with kindness.”
