[Machine] I used to work in Daynabaz and treat people there. Then Yazid bin Umayyah was appointed as the governor of Yemen, and he came with men from the companions of the Prophet ﷺ . A man who had come with him approached me while I was irrigating the crops, and he had a walnut in his hand. He sat on a water channel, breaking the walnut and eating it. Then he pointed towards a bucket and said, "Persian man, come here." So I approached him, and the man said to me, "O Persian, can you plant this walnut seed in this water?" Finanjah replied, "What benefit will I get from that?" The man said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Whoever plants a tree and takes care of it until it bears fruit, then every fruit that comes from it is a charity in the sight of Allah.' " So Finanjah asked him, "Did you hear this from the Messenger of Allah?" The man replied, "Yes." Finanjah then said, "I will guarantee it." The man said, "From it will be the walnut of Daynabaz."
