ajayeb form tiger animal snake [source: Cambridge Online University Library] ='heart'>♥ the parable of the twelfth camel
An old man, sensing his impending death, called to his side his three sons, to share with them the little he still owned. He said to them='lgc'>: my sons, I have eleven camels. I bequeath half of them to the oldest, a quarter to the second son, and to you, my youn="trms">gest, I give a sixth. Upon the father's death, the sons found themselves quite perplexed='lgc'>: how to divide their in="trms">heritance='qstn'>? A war over the division of goods seemed inevitable. With no apparent solution, the sons went to a neighbouring village to seek advice from an old sage. The old man thought awhile and then shook his head='lgc'>: I cannot resolve this problem. The only thing I can do for you is to give you my old camel. He is not very obedient and often does as he pleases. I don't know if you can use him but I think he may help you divide your in="trms">heritance. The sons brought the old camel back with them and divided up the in="trms">heritance='lgc'>: the first then received six camels, the second three and the youn="trms">gest two. This then left the camel of the old sage, which they could return to his owner.
