Seven Year Old Vinegar
FandyienBut Otto, what about us? Registered Userregular
A remote relative knocked at Mulla's door and said "I hear that you have some fine seven-year-old vinegar."
"That's right."
"Give me some."
"Look." Mulla said. "If I were to give my vinegar to any casual friend or relative who knocked at my door, it wouldn't last seven days, much less seven years."

A man wanted to borrow Mulla's donkey.
"It would have been all right" Mulla replied, "except that my donkey is brown."
The man said: "Doesn't a brown donkey give rides?"
Mulla said: "I don't want to lend the donkey, and what I said is good enough as an excuse."

Offered some food from the king's court, Bohlul put it in front of a dog. As the hungry animal began to eat with gusto, Bohlul turned to the courtiers:
"Don't tell him it is from the king's banquet."
A man was claiming to be God. He was taken to the Caliph, who said:
"Last year someone was claiming to be a prophet. He was executed."
"Serves him right." The man answered. "I hadn't sent him."

Nasreddin (variously Nasrudin, Nasrettin, etc.) is a legendary folk character in the Middle East and Central Asia, portrayed as a wise fool, clever simpleton, or instructive prankster.
Nothing is conclusively known about the person who originally inspired the stories, but popular tradition considers him a minor cleric from Anatolia in the 13th or early 14th century. The oldest surviving manuscripts containing tales of Nasreddin date from 16th century, and are Turkish. By the 19th century, tales of the older Arabic trickster character Juha became amalgamated into the lore of Nasreddin.
"Well, Nasreddin. I know you lost your only donkey. Life may be difficult without it. But, don't be too sad brother," the man tried to cheer him up.
"Do I look sad?"
"Yes, you look very sad. You looked much sadder than you did when your wife died."
"At that time you all tried to cheer me up by saying 'Don't be too sad, my brother Nasreddin. We'll get you a new wife.' But now you see, nobody offers me a donkey to replace my lost one."

"Last year someone was claiming to be a prophet. He was executed."
"Serves him right." The man answered. "I hadn't sent him."
and then he was executed
"In the whole world, that's all I have." Replied the dervish.
