In
an
African
Forest
A
man once passed through a forest in
Africa,walking at his leisure
smelling
the flowers and admiring the beauty of the place and wondering at the way
the sunrays fingered their way through the dense branches.
When
suddenly he
Oheard the sound of fast approaching danger that was loud
and frightening.
When
he turned, it was to face a large lion charging at him. The lion's thin
waist made evident his hunger. With the lion chasing him, the man's heart
nearly leaped out at the
sight
of it all, and so he started to
run for his life.
The lion was about to catch up with him when the man
came upfront with a well. Then with a mighty leap he jumped into the well
and ended up dangling in the heart of the well hanging onto a rope.
The
lion's voice eventually quieted; but then soon heard the hissing of a
snake that had a giant head and a long body which came from somewhere
below him.
Just
as the man was thinking of how what to do about the lion and the snake, a
black mouse and a white one climbed up to where the rope was attached and
started to nibble away at the rope.
The
man was petrified and so started to shake the rope hoping to get rid of
the mice. As he did so the rope began to swing and knocking him against
the walls. The man started to feel something wet and sticky come into
contact with the sides as he banged against the walls. The man licked the
substance only to find that it was honey; the type made by bees in the
forests and mountains. The honey thought was so sweet and delicious that
he continued to do so and forgot the situation he was in.
Suddenly
The
man woke up???!! For it was all just a horrible dream!!!
So
the man decided he should get his dream translated. So he went to meet a
religious scholar (one knowledgeable in the translation of dreams). He
told the scholar of his dream.
The
scholar laughed and said: “Don’t you know its interpretation
The man said he didn’t. So the scholar replied:
“the
lion that was chasing you was the angle of death
and the well with the snake in it is
your grave
and the two mice are the nights and the
days that are depleting form you life”

The man asked, “And how about the honey?”
The scholar replied:
P“That
is the sweet taste of life

that is distracting you and made you
forget that death,
& day of judgment are just behind you"
Is
there anyone who will reflect
before it is
Too
Late???

Sweet Dreams !!

Wa Assalamu Alaikum
