Best example of Honesty, Trust and Truthfulness by Bukhari...
There was a scholar named Bukhari, who lived in Saudi Arabia. He was famous for his honesty. Once he set out on the long journey by ship. He kept one thousand Dinars in a bag for his expenditure during journey. During the trip Bukhari became friendly with fellow passengers. Bukhari used to tell them words of wisdom. He became closer a passengers and show him the bag with thousand Dinars. That passengers was tempted and planned to acquire them by hook or crook.
One morning he started crying and shouting, "Hi, I am finished, my one thousand dinars have been stolen." The ship staff said, "why are you afraid. Who would steal, the thief will be here only. We will search all the persons and thief will be caught." And they started frisking each traveler. When the turn of Bukhari came, the staff and passengers of the ship told him, " Hey sir, why you should be searched. It will be crime to suspect you." After hearing this Bukhari told, No, My friend Dinars have been stolen and a doubt will remain in his heart. Therefore you should search me." Bukhari was also searched and nothing was found with him, After two days of depressed mood the traveler asked Bukhari "you had a thousand Dinars, where are they?" Bukhari said smilingly, "I have thrown them into the sea. You want to know why? Because I have two great fortune in LIFE - one HONESTY and second TRUST of other people. If they would have found Dinars with me and I had told that it belong to me, they would have believed me. But in spite of that people would have suspected my honesty and truth fullness. I can lose wealth but do not want to lose honesty and truth fullness at any cost.
