One hot day, Mulla Nasruddin was taking it easy in the shade of a walnut tree.
After
some time, he started eying speculatively, the huge pumpkins growing on
vines and the small walnuts growing on a majestic tree.
Sometimes I just can't understand the ways of God! he mused. Just fancy
letting tinny walnuts grow on so majestic a tree and huge pumpkins on
the delicate vines!
Just then a walnut snapped off and fell smack on Mullah Nasruddin's bald head. He got up at once and lifting up his hands and face to heavens in supplication, said:
