A short story on selflessness


Once a certain rich man decided to donate all his material wealth, among the poor and needy. He prayed to God, "Allah, I want to donate and distribute all my wealth among the poor and needy. I want to do it in such a way that nobody in the world should know about it."

As soon as he ended his prayer, he herd a divine voice. "If while you donate and distribute your wealth, your are totally absent. Then let the whole world know about it, it won't make any difference. However whilst  while doing so, even if an iota of you is present, then it is best that you don't distribute your wealth for no credit will accure from that act.
