The Story of Alladen Mohammed the Founder of IslamAn Allegorical TaleByAnthony J. Faber ©Perpetual Copyright (2011 CE) by Anthony J. Faber and Neothomism, P.C. (PA)Once upon a time, there was a poor street kid named Alladen Mohammed, wholived in Nazareth, in the Roman Province of Judea, where the capital was Jerusalem.One day, Alladen asked a Roman Soldier if he would like to guess the odds of a marblebeing choosen from under three cups, under one of which, the marble had been hidden.The Roman Soldier said no, and then told Alladen to get out of town. So, Alladen madehis way up to Jerusalem, where, the Caliph of Jerusalem was Josef al Sherif, and wherethe evil Grand Vizier, was Juan de Gedido. Alladen made his way around and about themarket square in Jerusalem, and began speaking with a furniture salesman named, Josef.Josef said to Alladen, “I can see that you must go on a great journey in order to find your fortune. This is called the Spirit Journey or the Heroes’ Journey.” “Now, I will giveyou 50 sestare coins, and you must not come back until you have accomplished a greatfeat,” said Josef. So, Alladen took the money and headed for Baghdad to studyphilosophy, metaphysics, and jurisprudence under Averoes and Avicenna at theUniversity of Baghdad. On the way to Baghdad, Alladen was jumped by a group of thieves, but, Alladen killed all of them with his rapier sword and took their booty for himself. In the pack of one of the dead bandits, Alladen found a lamp. Alladen rubbedthe tarnished lamp three times, and opened the lamp bottle by pulling out the cork which
 
held it closed. Lo and Behold, out came a Magic Jinn or Genie. The Jinn said, I am theJinn of Al Kadar, do you have any wishes for me?” Alladen thought about it and thensaid, “Well, right of parley, how many wishes to I have?” The Jinn then manifested aBook and looked into it for awhile. Then, the Jinn said, “I suppose that you have threewishes, at a minimum, and no more,” said the Jinn. Alladen thought for awhile, and thensaid, “First, I wish that you remain within earshot so that you can hear my later wishes.”“Wish granted”said the Jinn, “Next,” said Alladen, I wish for an additional One hundredMillion wishes, or an infinite number of wishes, whichever is greater.” The Jinn lookedvery troubled, but said, “Allright, I can see that your wish comes within the Magic Rule,therefore it is granted.” Alladen then said, “I wish that, as to any wish, subsequent to thiswish, that any such wish can be changed, altered, modified, or cancelled, by any later wish by me, Alladen.” “Wish granted,” said the Jinn Al Kadar. Then Alladen said, “Iwish for the gifts of Wisdom, Reason, and Logic,” “Those are certainly wise wishes,”said the Jinn, “they are granted.” Alladen then said, “I wish for a Magic Carpet to takeme and you to Baghdad, so I can study philosophy, metaphysics, and jurisprudence under the scholars Avicenna and Averoes.” “Wish granted,” said the Jinn. Also, said Alladen,“I wish for an immortal soul and immortality for me and my body and soul.” “Wishgranted,” said the Jinn. Alladen and the Jinn then flew on the Magic Carpet to Baghdad,where Alladen spent a number of years studying philosophy, metaphysics, andjurisprudence under the scholars Avicenna and Averoes. Soon, Alladen developed intoa Druid Gray Wizard, who is a master of Subtle Gray Magic. After a time, Alladen saidto the Jinn, “I wish that you owe me an amount of money equal to One Million sestares,which is binding as a non-interest, non-due date loan to me from you my Jinn.”
