HERKESİ MEMNUN EDEMEZSİN


 

SEMANUR-ŞEHİT AHMET ÖZSOY İHO




One day, the late Hodja was going to a village with his son.

He let his son ride the donkey. Some people saw them and said:

"Ah, look at today's youth! He's comfortably riding the donkey while making his poor old father walk. Shame!"

The boy said:

"See, Father? Didn't I insist? Please don't be stubborn anymore — you get on the donkey."

So the Hodja got on the donkey instead. They went on a little further and came across some others who said:

"Well, just look at that! An old man like you should know better. You've lived your life, you're nearing the end — and yet you make this young, fresh boy walk in this heat?"

The Hodja then took his son and seated him behind him on the donkey. They hadn't gone far when they encountered another group of people. These ones remarked:

"Such cruelty! Two people riding one poor donkey on such a long road? And this man is supposed to be a scholar!"

Now the Hodja, annoyed, got off the donkey and had his son get off too. They started walking, leading the donkey in front of them. It wasn't long before they met a few more people who said:

"Good heavens! What foolishness is this? The donkey walks freely, hopping and skipping, while these two poor souls walk behind it in the heat, covered in dust and sweat. How absurd!"

After hearing all this, the Hodja turned to his son and said:

"Listen, my son. If there’s anyone who can escape the tongue of the people, more power to him! No matter what you do, you can never please everyone. Just try to please Allah, that's what truly matters."
