11.The good and bad results


It is stated that there were two sons to the king of Bakhtar
region.Both were strong, skilled soldiers, and courageous
individuals. The king thought that after him there would be a
fight for the throne, and in this way there would be use of the
swords and a fight among them.
After careful consideration, he divided the kingdom into two
parts during his lifetime and gave one part of the kingdom to
each of his two sons. And he was given final advice: "Be united
and always help each other, so that their welfare is ensured."
Both brothers were the same and equal in terms of soldierly
power and art, but they were as far apart as the sky and earth.
One was a God-fearing, just, and godly individual. The second
brother was the opposite of his brother; he was greedy, hard-
hearted, and a bad charcter person.During his father's reign, their
lives were the same and equal, as there was a lot of affection and
love for both of them from their father. But after the death of the
king, there were results as per their habits.
The first son became well-known and famous, and his country
prospered. There were many fruits in the gardens and many
heaps of grain in the fields of the village people, and everyone
used to praise him and pray for his longer life for this reason.
On the other side, another king began looting the people in his
kingdom and began filling his treasury. He began to cause many
kinds of trouble and problems for the people. As a result, people
began to flee the country, abandoning their lands and fields and
migrating to other countries. When the king of the neighbouring
country was able to know this condition of the problems, he was
attacked in his kingdom, and he finished his rule of the
kingdom.
There was no justice in the cruelness.
Such a foolish person is unfit to rule.
Such cruelties will not be successful.
The poor man's curse will be directed at him.
Crusading by raising the hands of the poor
He has no place in the world's yellow light.
 
Explanation: Hazrat Saadi mentioned the recompense of deeds
in this story in the pursuit of wisdom. If someone believes or
does not believe in the firm rule of Allah, one who sows barley
will only get barley, whereas someone who sows wheat will
receive wheat. In the other world, the person will be punished or
rewarded based on his actions in the world during his life
time.But in this world, the dealing will be settled as per deeds
and thinking. Yes, it is possible that the result will come late in
some cases.
