When asked about how he was feeling at the moment, Maqbool said, “I’m very grateful to the RTA for the honor they bestowed on me. I’ve shared the news with my family back home and on Facebook and everyone is congratulating me. My father would say make sure your income is from honest sources and Allah will honor you and give you something better than what you would have earned from dishonest sources. When I told my father what happened, he said I did the right thing and he was so proud of me. It’s such a great feeling.”

“I wasn’t sure at first if it was really gold but I said to myself, ‘leave it, even if it is so much gold, no matter how much it is worth. It is not worth more than one dirham of honest income’. So we called the authorities and later it was confirmed that it was solid gold. What I want to say to people is work hard, work honestly and never take what does not belong to you. Allah will honor you in front of everyone; that is the true reward.“, Maqbool added.
