Please, please let me tip you!

I know I've written about this before.  I simply cannot get over service workers refusing a tip.  OK, I get the notion that a 15-20% tip in the US simply doesn't happen here.
But can't I tip 5 dirhams on a 50 dirham bill?  In dollars, that's like a buck twenty five on a on twelve dollar bill. 
I paid the bill, with tip, and I had to reiterate that the excess money was for him to keep. 
Is tipping that much of an American thing?
