NASREDDIN HODJA
He lived five hundred years ago but he
still remains among us today in our minds.
His name is a household word in Turkey.
In everything he did there was not only
something funny and smart but also there
was reality.
Here is a story of the Hodja :
As the story goes, the Hodja owned a
donkey and fed him well. Nevertheless
on an unlucky day his donkey ran away.
The Hodja couldn’t afford another one
but he seemed almost happy to the
villagers who saw him. “Allah be prased “
he repeated. “Why do you thank Allah when
your donkey has run away? ”
“I was not on him when he ran away.
So I am safe, if I was on him we would
both be lost.“ answered the Hodja.
