Junaid’s New Neighbor
When Junaid went to greet his new neighbor, the old man snarled and slammed the door in his face. After enduring the man’s rude behavior for several weeks, Junaid despaired. “Oh God,” he prayed, “please take this man’s life.” That night, God came to Junaid in a dream. “This man has been your neighbor only a few weeks, but he has been my neighbor for sixty years. If I can abide with him, you can too.” When he awoke, Junaid remembered God’s words. “I shall let the man be as he is,” Junaid decided. “For who am I after all?” TINY T TALES ALES FROM THE SUFIS 101
