Abu Ommamah
Abdur Rahman Bin Yazid Bin Jabi says that a slave woman of Abu Ommamah told him that Abu Ommamah was very fond of giving alms. He never rejected any beggar but always sent them away with something, be it a date or an onion, whatever he possessed in the nature of food at the time. One day a begger came but Abu Ommamah had no food to give all that he had in his possession were 3 ashrafis. He gave one ashrafi to the beggar who then went on his way. Another beggar came; he gave him the second. Then a third came he gave him the third. Witnessing these 3 incidents the slave woman said I became angry, as he had not left anything behind for us. and
She says Abu Ommamah then lay down rested until the call for zuhr prayer was heard. I awoke him; he performed his ablution and went to the mosque. She says I felt sorry for him, as I knew he was fasting so I took out a loan on some things and prepared a meal for him. I lighted a lamp and moved towards his bed in order to make it when I saw ashrafis lying there. I said to myself that Abu Ommamah had given earlier in the confidence that these ashrafs would come later.
prayer he saw the When he returned after the Isha dinner cloth and the lamp alight and smiling said, “This is the good from Allah”. I remained standing at his head until he completed his meal. I said, “May Allah show mercy on you. This money you left behind like this and didn’t even tell me that I could have picked it up”. Abu Ommamah said in surprise, “which money? I didn’t leave anything behind?” She lifted the bed and showed him the ashrafis lying beneath. When he saw them he became happy and was very much astonished. She says “I then stood up and embraced Islam”. (Hayatus Sahabah)
