Someone in the mosque of Sinjar voluntarily called the adhan in a manner that the listeners were repulsed by it, and the owner of the mosque was a just and virtuous emir, he did not want him to be offended. He said: O young man! This mosque has old muezzins, I have assigned five dinars to each of them, I will give you ten dinars so that you go somewhere else.

They agreed on this and he left. After a while, he came back to the emir on a passage. He said: O lord! You did me wrong by expelling me from that place for ten dinars, because here where I have gone, they are giving me twenty dinars to go somewhere else and I do not accept! The emir became beside himself with laughter and said: Beware! Until they become satisfied with fifty, do not accept!

No one scrapes clay from the surface of hard rock with an axe,

As your harsh call scrapes the heart.
