Anwar BAB emphasizes that his actions are not to anticipate fate, but rather a form of readiness so as not to burden others. Anwar was moved after witnessing his neighbor die without anyone to take care of things.

"It's my fault, sorry, my neighbor died, there was no one to take care. Then like the neighborhood head, 'Hey, this shroud hasn't been bought yet.' His family is not around. Especially like, sorry, people who are less fortunate. So I thought, well, when Allah gives, it shouldn't be a cause for fear, it's just like a preparation," Anwar expressed as quoted by Liputan6.com.
