📖 Reading Passage / النص القرائي
My friend, Peter, has always been fat, but things got so bad recently that he decided to go on a diet. He began his diet a week ago. First of all, he wrote out a long list of all the foods which were forbidden. The list included most of the things Peter loved: butter, potatoes, rice, milk, chocolates, and sweets.
Yesterday I visited him. I rang the bell and was surprised to see that he was still as fat as ever. He led me into his room and hurriedly hid a large parcel under his desk. When I asked him what he was doing, he smiled and then put the parcel on the desk.
He explained that his diet was so strict that he had to reward himself occasionally. Then he showed me the contents of the parcel. It contained five large bars of chocolates and three bags of sweets.

💡 The Moral Lesson of the Story
This story teaches an important moral lesson. Peter wanted to be healthy, but he rewarded himself in the wrong way. The story shows that self-control is important and that rewards should support good behavior, not destroy it.
الحكمة من القصة: تعلمنا القصة أن ضبط النفس مهم، وأن المكافأة الحقيقية تكون في الالتزام بالهدف وعدم إفساده، وهذا يتماشى مع قيمنا الإسلامية في الصبر والانضباط.
