Shoes and Feet, Juta or Payon

In life's grieves and sorrows, I have never been broken heart and lament. But only one time when I have no shoes, nor enough money to purchase the shoes. I reached in kufa's Mosque in surprised and shocked condition. 

I saw a man without feet, so I thanked Allah that I have feet, and I postponed my plan to buy the shoes.

One night the old man said this is only one my offspring in life. There is a tree in this forest, people go there, for their wishes. I had been going there, spend a lot of long nights for praying a son to God underneath that tree.

Unblest, Badbakht

Some pious fellows met and began to talk on different affairs. A man began to slander that man    who was not present at the moment. A pious asked the question who was present in the meeting " Had you ever gone to war against non Muslims"? He replied that he never puts his feet outside the house.  

Then Pious Dervish Said!

Friends! I never saw unblest man like this, who is reckless regarding battle against non Muslim,
but a Muslim worried by his language.
