HIS FAMILY ATE HIS GRAPES SO HE BUILT A MOSQUE.
A man in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on that fateful day returned home from work just in the nick of time as the time for Asr prayer approached. He was received by his family and aides at his doorstep, who took in his loads, including a box of grapefruits he got on his way back home. He had bought it for himself and his family.
He proceeded to the masjid to pray, and by the time he came back, to his disappointment, his family had finished the grapes he bought without minding he was interested in them too.
He was disappointed, but that singular act inspired him to do something worthwhile for himself. What did he do?
Before he could have his meal, he stepped outside away from his family, made a phone call to his account manager, an architect, and an engineer, a quantity surveyor, etc., had a quick chat with them, and tasked them with the duty of buying a piece of land in the most expensive neighborhood for a mosque to be built thereon as sadaqah jariyah. There and then, he wrote a check to fund the project before finally heading back home to have his meal.
A box of grapes inspired him to do that because if his family, despite their love/affection for him, could eat up the whole box of grapes without taking into account his own interest too while he is alive, how wise would it be for him to expect that a sadaqah jariyah be made on his behalf while he is gone?
