An elderly lady was well-known for her Iman and for
her confidence in talking about it. She would stand in front of her house and
say Alhamdulilah "Allah be praised" to all those who passed by. Next
door to her lived an atheist who would get so angry at her proclamations he
would shout, "There ain't no Lord!!"
Hard times came upon the elderly
lady, and she prayed for Allah to send her some assistance. She would pray out
loud in her night prayer "Oh Allah! I need food!! I am having a hard time,
please Lord, PLEASE LORD, SEND ME SOME GROCERIES!!" The atheist happened
to hear her as she was praying, and decided to play a prank on her.
The next
morning the lady went out on her porch and noted a large bag of groceries and
shouted, "Alhamdulilah, Allah be praised!" The neighbor jumped from
behind a bush and said, "Aha! I told you there was no Lord. I bought those
groceries, God didn't." The lady started jumping up and down and clapping
her hands and said, "ALHAMDULILAH WA SHUKRILLAH. He not only sent me
groceries, but he made the devil pay for them!"
