«أَدْخَلَ كُلُّ مِنْهُمْ يَدَهُ فِي جَيْبِهِ»
Each person in the gathering put a hand into a pocket.

Putting hands into pockets is an observable response to the address. It shows readiness to give and dramatizes collective movement; it says nothing here about each person’s exact contribution.

Keep the causal chain in order: rhetoric, emotional response, physical gesture, possible payment. An observed gesture should not be inflated into an unsupported monetary total.
