A true gentleman’s wealth is measured by how many guests have eaten at his table. Even if he has only one goat and a handful of rice, he will slaughter it for a stranger. When a guest arrives, the gentleman personally washes the guest’s hands, pours the shaah (tea) with his right hand, and refuses to let the guest leave without canjeero (flatbread) wrapped in cloth for the road. He does this without counting the cost.
