KISWAHILI: MALI HAZIJAZWI.

Alikuwepo mtu mmoja aliyekuwa mfanya biashara wa vitu vingi. Mtu huyo, alitaka kukusanya pesa mpaka zijae. Kwa hiyo basi, siku moja maskini alienda kuomba msaada kwake akisema, “naomba unisaidie pesa nikanunulie chakula ili niweze kula nyumbani kwangu.” Mfanya biashara huyo alijibu, “siwezi kukusaidia kwa sababu pesa hazijawa nyingi.”

Kesho yake, yule maskini alimuomba tena, akisema, “naomba unisaidie basi kwa siku ya leo kama hizo pesa zimekuwa nyingi.” Yule mfanya biashara alikataa tena akisema, “pesa hazijawa nyingi, nikizijaza nitakusaidia.” Mwishowe, yule mfanya biashara alifilisika, mpaka akaanza kukumbuka kwamba, angemsaidia yule maskini alipokuwa na mali. Ndiyo maana watu walimwambia kwamba, “mali hazijazwi.”

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye hukataa kuwasaidia wahitaji wale wanaomumba msaada wake, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, huendelea kuidharau mali anayoipata maishani mwake. Yeye hutaka akusanye mali nyingi zaidi ndipo akubali kuwasaidia maskini, kwa sababu ya kutokuelewa mwisho wa maisha yake, na kile kitakachompata kwenye siku mbeleni.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na yule mfanya biashara aliyemnyima yule maskini msaada alioumba kwake, kwa sababu naye, huwanyima wale wanaomwendea wakiomba msaada wake, katika maisha yake. Ndiyo maana watu humwambia kwamba, “mali hazijazwi.”

Msemo huo, hufundisha watu juu ya kukubali kuwasaidia wahitaji wanaoomba msaada kutoka kwao kwa kile wanachoweza kuwasadidia, ili waweze kupata Baraka za kufanikiwa zaidi, maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: WEALTH IS NOT FILLED (MONEY IS ALWAYS NOT ENOUGH).

There was one man who was a merchant of various things. He wanted to raise money until it was full. So one day a poor man went to him asking for help, saying, “Please help me to buy food so that I can eat at home.” The businessman replied, “I cannot help you because there is not much money.”

The next day, the poor man begged him again, saying, “Please help me some for today if that money is full.” The businessman again refused, saying, “I don’t have much money, if I fill it up I will help you.” Eventually, the businessman went bankrupt, until he began to realize that he could help the poor man when he was rich. That is why people said to him, “wealth is not filled (Money is always not enough).”

This saying is likened to a person who refuses to support the needy who seek his assistance in his life. Such person continues to despise the possessions he acquires in his life. He wants to accumulate more wealth and then he will start helping the poor, because he does not understand the end of his life, and what will happen to him in the future.

This person is like the businessman who refused to help the poor person who asked help from him, because he too denies those who approach him seeking help in his life. That is why people say to him, “wealth is not filled (Money is always not enough).”

This saying instills in people an idea of helping the needy who need help from them in what they can support them with, so that they can receive blessings of greater success in their lives.
