Blind beggar. Physically deformed people are the pitiful beggars, who are really in need. This older man didn`t have even eyeballs, but only bare, deep pits. I saw many who had lost legs because of polio.

 

"The Muslim gives alms for merit and most beggars believe that they are helping you on your way to Heaven by allowing you to give them."
