SACRIFICE TO ALLAH 
(A story of Abu Darda RA)

(A story of Abu Darda RA)
This is the beautiful story of one opportunist who did not let go of his chance to get guaranteed pleasure in the Hereafter.
There was a hypocrite companion of the Prophet who cultivated his garden next to the property of an orphan.
The orphan claimed that a specific palm tree was on his property and therefore belonged to him. The hypocrite rejected the claim

So the orphan boy went to the Messenger of Allah to complain.
He ï·ș measured the two gardens and found that the palm tree did indeed belong to the hypocite.

The orphan erupted crying. Seeing this, the Prophet ï·ș asked the hypocrite âWould you give him the palm tree and for you is a palm tree in Jannah?â
However, the hypocrite rejected the prophet ï·șâs offer and missed the opportunity and went away angry.

But someone else saw the opportunity â Abu Darda. He went to the Prophet ï·ș and asked,
âYa RasulAllah, if I buy the tree from him and give it to the orphan shall I have that tree in Jannah?â
The Messenger of Allah ï·ș replied, âYesâ
âYa RasulAllah, if I buy the tree from him and give it to the orphan shall I have that tree in Jannah?â
The Messenger of Allah ï·ș replied, âYesâ
Abu Darda had chased after the hypocrite and asked, âWould you sell that tree to me for my entire garden?â 
(Abu Darda had a garden of 600 TREES!!!!!)
The hypocrite answered, âTake it, for there is no good in a tree that was complained to the Prophet about.â

The hypocrite answered, âTake it, for there is no good in a tree that was complained to the Prophet about.â
Immediately Abu Darda went home and found his wife and children playing in the garden.
âLeave the garden!â he shouted âWeâve sold it to Allah! Weâve sold it to Allah!â
Some of his children had dates in their hand and he snatched the dates from them

When Abu Darda was later martyred in the battle of Uhud, RasulAllah ï·ș stood over his slain body and remarked
âHow many shady palm trees does Abu Darda now have in Paradise?â
