Giving Without Showing Off

What does it mean to give without showing off? When Hasan struggles to decide how much of his savings to give to charity, Baba shares the beautiful story of a secret gift given from behind a door. Through three powerful historical stories from the life of Imam Husayn (a.s.)—from paying a dying man's heavy debt, to rewarding a teacher of the Holy Qur'an, to handing a small fortune from behind a door to protect a poor man's dignity—Hasan learns what sadaqah truly means.
