Bahlool and a Thief

Reading Time: < 1 minute

One day Bahlool was wearing new shoes. He went to the mosque for prayers. He saw a man staring at his shoes. Bahlool understood that he wanted his new shoes. Helplessly, Bahlool stood for Salat (prayer) with his shoes on.

The thief said, “Salat (prayer) isn’t done with shoes on.”

Bahlool replied, “I won’t have my Salat (prayer), but I will have my shoes.”
