What do you get when you cross a seed and a $ mind?
You basically get $... Lots, and lots of $$ of course!!!
Now then, let's talk about money and seeds in terms of fruit business. Hmm... where do I start? Ok, good... Let's start there.
You are a student, studying in the field of fruitology and one day when it was your birthday, your mum gave a present... A seed! An apple seed! You were thinking, why does mum have to give something so cheap? So cheap and small and tiny and little... It could easily slip through your pocket hole without even noticing it! But because you're an obedient kid of your mum, you kept it locked safe somewhere.
Then something suddenly struck your mind, "How about if I plant this seed and perhaps one day I could taste the sweetness of what mum gave me..?" You said to yourself that that was a good idea and you instantly went to do it. You planted it in the little beloved garden of yours in front of your house.
As days pass by, you consistently took care of that soon-to-be-apple-tree of yours. You put fertilizers and you water it, hoping that one day it'll fruit with the best and sweetest of fruits. Weeks then pass by... Months, and years...
It then came to one day, where fruits were jutting out from branches all over your apple tree. Hundreds of them..! You collected them and decide to sell some of them. You were able to sell all the apples, quite a lot of money you got. But the little wicked mind of yours were saying that "it's not enough... it's not enough... let's have more..!" So you decided to plant more trees and get more money. The seeds were gotten from some of the apples that was collected.
As time passes by, you were able to expand your business... By the doubles! And triples! And so on..! Until one day you became a tycoon, a fruit tycoon!
Moral of the story; with a seed you can become a fruit tycoon. So let's become fruit tycoons!
"The parable of those who spend their substance in the way of Allah is that of a grain of corn: it groweth seven ears, and each ear Hath a hundred grains. Allah giveth manifold increase to whom He pleaseth: And Allah careth for all and He knoweth all things."
[al-Baqarah, 2:261]
