A Mullah Nasruddin / Nasreddin Hoca story
The Dog Minister
One day, when Mullah Nasruddin was walking toward the mosque, he saw a large dog at the door. He shooed away the dog, but instead it ran right up into the pulpit, where it began to bark and howl.
“What an amazing thing,” cried the Mullah. “This stupid creature must have been a former minister here!”
