16 Preface أَو مِسكينًا ذا مَترَبَةٍYusuf AliOr to the indigent (down) in the dust.1Persons down in the dust can only be helped from motives of pure charity, because nothing can be expected of them—neither praise nor advertisement nor any other advantage to the helper. Such help is help indeed. But there may be various degrees, and the help will be suited to the needs.
