11 Preface وَأَمّا بِنِعمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثYusuf AliBut the bounty of the Lord — rehearse and proclaim!1Besides the petitioners, who ask for help, there is the case of those who do not ask but are nevertheless poor—poor but contented in worldly goods, or poor in knowledge or resources and not even knowing that they are poor. If you are bountifully endowed by God, your duty is to make that Bounty spread far and wide. Proclaim it and share it, as the holy Prophet always did. Spiritually we all belong to one of these three classes in one sense or another,—orphans, petitioners, and victims of poverty. We all receive God’s grace and guidance in some degree or other. We all owe it as a duty to our fellow-men to be kind and helpful to those less endowed in any respect than ourselves.
