Story of the week

Once upon a time...

and long ago, in the distant land of Al-Marghrib, was a sultan who ruled over his dominion with justice and equity. His reign was one of peace. There were no querrel to quell, no judgments to bestow, and no wars to be fought...

One day, the sultan feeling gloomy and bored, decided that he needed a jester of his own. He called Joha and sent him to find the most foolish man in the land. Then, Bring him to the palace that we make him our private Jester," Replied the Sultan.

With these final words, Joha left the high walled palace, returned to his house, to prepare for that unexpected journey. Once ready, he kissed and hugged his skeptical wife and four children, then, climbing on his stubborn mule, set out in search of the foolest man in the land...

Seven months later, Joha returned alone to the palace. He was immediately taken to the Sultan who, without wasting a second, asked, "Have you found my idiot?"

Joha smiled and bowed his head, "Yes, Oh Wisest of the wisests, Oh my adored Sultan."

"Where is he?" Demanded the Sultan.

"He righ in front of you, Oh strongest of the strongests."

"Where?"

"Here."
