Later Nasruddin picked up a pair of tongs from the house took it to the bazaar and shouted, "I sell this pair of tongs for 3000 Dinars."People gathered and asked, "Why do you charge 3000 Dinars for this while the actual price is just 0.5 Dinars?" He answered "You have fixed the price of a sward which stretches five meters to be 3000. Every time my wife quarrels with me, she throws the tongs at me from a distance of then meters far. Doesn�t it worth 3000 Dinars?" The size of the world Once a crowd of people stood on his way and asked, "How many meters is the whole world?" Before Nasruddin�s answer a funeral passed by.

He answered, "Forty years" After ten years he was asked again. He answered, "Forty years" People said, "Ten years ago you were saying forty years. Now you again say forty years." Nasruddin answered, "Man's answer is only one. Even if you ask after twenty years I will give the same answer". The benefit of moon Nasruddin was asked whether the sun was more beneficial or the moon. Nasruddin answered, "The answer is so clear that does not need explanation. The sun rises in the bright day. Its presence is not very useful. But the moon appears in the dark nights. It illuminates the darkness of the night. It is quite obvious that the moon is a thousand times more advantageous as compared to the sun". Buying a flute Nasruddin was passing by a group of boys in a street. The boys requested him to buy wooden flutes for them. Nasruddin promised to do so. Among them one of the boys paid the price of a flute ahead. Nasruddin promised to buy one of him too.In the evening the boys were waiting for Nasruddin to come and asked him weather he had bought flutes or not. Nasruddin took out a flute and gave it to the boy who had already paid the money and told the others that playing flute was good only for rich boys. Joke People asked Nasruddin, "How long will the human live on the earth? "He answered, "Till the heaven and the hell are full. In the shadow of clouds Once he was digging pits in a desert. A person asked him, "What are you doing?" "I have hidden some money in this desert. Now that I try to find it, I can not." answered Nasruddin. That man said, "But you didn�t put any sign on it, did you?" Nasruddin answered, "When I was burying the money a mass of cloud was casting its shadow on it, but now I don�t know where the shadow is?" His divorced mother Nasruddin went to a city and fell sick there. Those people who had come to inquire about his health asked him, "God forbid, if you die, who will be your heir?" Nasruddin said, "I have only one mother who was divorced by my father in the last days of his life. It shows that I don�t have a heir." Should have a value It is said that whatever Nasruddin was requested to lend he would have given it the next day. Some one asked him what the reason for doing so was. He said, "I want nothing to become worthless." Inside and outside Once Nasruddin took his donkey to the bazaar and gave it to a broker to sell. He himself stood at a corner and was watching the scene. The broker started describing the donkey by saying "This donkey which is for sale is a very young and fast one.Any one who buys this will be fully satisfied. Nasruddin told to himself. "If my donkey is so good why shouldn�t I buy it myself?" He went to the broker, fixed the price and bought the donkey. He took the donkey home and told the story to his wife. His wife told him, "I also did a very good business.When the milk man came and was busy weighing milk, I deviated his attention and put my bracelet in the weight pan. Equal to the weight of the bracelet I got more milk." When Nasruddin heard of her cleverness, he said, "God Almighty bless you. You try from inside and I will from outside so that the daily expenses of the family are easily met." Donkey for sale Once Nasruddin took his donkey to bazaar to sell it. If a customer came from the front, the donkey would open its mouth and bite him and if from behind it would kick him.A person told Nasruddin, "Due to this fault no one will buy the donkey. "n answered, "My intention is also not selling the donkey. I actually want peoples what this donkey does to me."

Nasruddin answered, "Yes" The person requested Nasruddin to give him a bowl of that vinegar. Nasruddin answered, "If I were to give it to every one, it would not have lasted so long." Is it me or him Nasruddin was to take a long trip. He made a hole in a pumpkin shell and hanged it around his neck so that he is not lost. One night, while he was sleeping, a jolly man removed the pumpkin from his neck and put it in his own. When Nasruddin woke up, he saw the pumpkin in the other person's neck. "I am sure i am this person. If so, who am I myself?" He asked. His lost donkey Nasruddin lost his donkey. He was looking for it in the streets and at the same time thanking God Almighty. Some one asked him, "What are you thanking God for?" "Because if i were with the donkey, I would have been lost too. A third person was needed to look for both me and the donkey" he answered |
