| Once
upon a time there was a man named Juha. He had one donkey,
and every day he and his donkey would take a walk. One day Juha was
sitting on a tree and he started cutting the branch he was sitting on.
Then a man walking in the street saw him and told him that if he would cut
the branch he would fall on the ground. Juha said to the man: “you
don't know what happens in the future. Only Allah knows that”. The man said:
“You will see!” and he left.
After Juha finished cutting the branch that he was sitting on, he fell to the ground and realized that the man was right. After he fell, Juha thought to himself "Maybe the man knew everything. Juha ran after the man and asked him, “When am I going to die?” “ You will die the day your donkey screams and his tail goes up,” the man replied. The
rest of the day Juha was preparing for his death and was waiting
for the screams of his donkey. When it was sunset, his
donkey screamed and the tail went up. Once Juha heard that, he slept
under a big tree and covered himself with a white sheet believing that
he was going to die. A man who had lost his way came across Juha
sleeping under the tree and asked him for directions. Juha
said : “When I was alive, I used to take that street”.
