Hadhrat Ibraahim Bin Adham narrated that once he met Hadhrat Khidhr (alayhis salaam). Hadhrat Khidhr presented him with a green utensil filled with soup. Hadhrat Ibn Adham refused to accept it. Hadhrat Khidhr commented: “I have heard the Malaaikah say: ‘If a man refuses acceptance of a gift presented to him with sincerity, then his need will not be fulfilled even when he asks.’ ”

               If there is no valid Shar’i reason for refusing acceptance of a gift presented with sincerity and love, it should not be rejected
