Sometimes truely needy people who seek help from charity organizations are denied help. I personally know of 2 such cases. An expat widow with an orphan who has to work so hard to make her ends meet and has to spend many long hours from her young son. Also another expat woman and her son who were staying with a family she barely knew (they were helping her fisabillah). She made just enough money to eat. She and her child were denied charity. In fact, I was told that a sister who was helping them with their applications walked into the charity office and the workers were not very helpful at all. They were too busy beautifying themselves. Perhaps this could be one of the reasons why some of the beggars have to beg in the streets.
