CP
One day, the boy went into an oasis
that lay outside Madinah. He found
date trees growing in the cool,
shady oasis and as soon as he saw
them, he picked up some stones
and started throwing them. The
stones hit the palm trees and the
dates fell down into the sand. After
a while, the boy stopped throwing
stones, and started doing some-
thing else he enjoyed very much:
that was eating the dates which he
had knocked down from the trees.
The dates tasted delicious and the
boy ate them all, giving no thought
at all to the damage he might have
caused the trees. He did not think,
either, about the owners of the
trees. They became very angry
when they found out what the boy
had done. The owners of the trees
knew that the boy would come back
to the oasis to throw more stones
and eat more dates as they fell to
☺ ☺
