The story is told of a guy who comes up to a Muslim man in the street and tells him, "You gotta help me. I've lost everything looking for a woman to call my own -- my house, my job . . . I've lost my life's savings trying to woo and to please, but to no avail. Can you spare me any money? Any amount, large or small, I'm begging you. I'm alone and I need to survive." (He breaks down and cries.)
Well, the Muslim man is sensitive to the other man's plight but he is wise to the ways of humanity and he says to the beggar, "I'd like to help but if I give you the money you need to survive, how do I know you won't spend it on a woman?"
And the beggar says, "Oh, I got goat money."
