June 2nd, 2017, posted in ChARACtERs, MESSAGEs, POEPLes, STORiES, Sufism
One day Bohlool arrived at Abbasid Caliph Haroon Al-Rashid‘s palace and saw that the throne was empty. There was no one to stop him, so he unhesitatingly and fearlessly went and sat in Abbasid Caliph Haroon Al-Rashid‘s place. When the court slaves saw this, they immediately started whipping him and took him off the throne. Bohlool started crying.
Abbasid Caliph Harun Al-Rashid came and saw this; he asked those nearby why Bohlool was crying. A slave told him the whole story. Abbasid Caliph Haroon Al-Rashid scolded them and tried to cheer Bohlool up.
Bohlool said he was not crying at his condition, but at Haroon Al-Rashid’s condition. “I sat on the seat of Caliphate wrongfully for a few seconds and received such a beating and endured such misfortune; but you have been sitting on this throne all your life !! What troubles you must receive, yet you still don’t fear the consequence.”

Bohlool And the Khalifa’s Food
May 12th, 2017, posted in ChARACtERs, MESSAGEs, POEPLes, STORiES, SufismIt is said that Abbasid Caliph Harun Al-Rashid sent some food to Bohlool, in the hope of drawing him towards himself with this benevolent act.
His servant brought the food to Bohlool, put it in front of him, and said, “This is the Khalifa’s special food, he has sent it to you to eat.“
Bohlool placed the food in front of the dog that was sitting in the ruins of the place. The servant screamed, “Why did you give the Khalifa’s food to the dog !!”
Bohlool said, “Be quiet !! If the dog hears that the Khalifa sent this food, it won’t eat it either.“
