00:00Balul and the sage in Haran Rashid's court.
00:03Haran sent for a certain sage of Greece.
00:05When he came, Haran greeted him with majesty, splendor, and respect.
00:11For a few days, court rulers and the great men of Baghdad came to see this philosopher.
00:16On the third day, Balul also went with some people.
00:19In the middle of the formal and petty talk, Balul suddenly asked him,
00:23What kind of work do you do?
00:24The sage was aware of Balul's insanity, so he wanted to make him look like a fool.
00:29He answered, I am a philosopher, and I awaken the dead, people's minds.
00:34Balul replied, don't kill those minds that are alive by giving wrong ideas.
00:39Reawakening the dead, people's minds, is your compensation for that.
00:44Haran and his courtiers laughed a lot at Balul's answer, and the sage shamefully left Baghdad.
