The purchaser found an earthenware utensil filled with gold buried in the ground. Hence he went to the seller and told him: \u201cTake your gold, for I have purchased from you only the land and not the gold.\u201d The former owner replied: \u201cWell! I have sold you the land together with whatever is in it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Hence both the buyer and seller presented their case to a third person in order to resolve their dispute. He asked them: \u201cDo you have any children?\u201d One of them replied: \u201cI have a son.\u201d The other replied: \u201cI have a daughter.\u201d The one presiding over their case then said: \u201cGet the boy married to the girl. Spend some of this wealth in seeing to their needs and give the rest in charity.\u201d (Saheeh Bukhari #3472)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Lesson:<\/strong> The end result of having a big heart is always sweet.
