Once Ali had to leave the chai shop for several hours because he ran out of tea, of all things, and he had to bring more from its storage place. In his absence, everyone criticized him. Someone cracked, “That Ali is as useless as a cabbage.”
Nasruddin said, “Not true, my friend. Even a cabbage can be cooked and eaten. But what useful object can Ali be turned into?”
Bear Bones Books is pleased to announce the pending release of the redesigned edition of The Uncommon Sense of the Immortal Mullah Nasruddin: Stories, jests, and donkey tales of the beloved Persian folk hero, collected & retold by Ron J. Suresha.
“The author’s roundup is exhaustive, perhaps one of the most honest of all English collections that have been published as popular Mullah Nasruddin literature.”
Nasreddin Hoca ordered a new shirt from Hussein the tailor, and when it was ready, he went to the tailor’s shop to pick it up.

Young Nasruddin was passing a vineyard and was very thirsty, so he jumped the fence and began to pull down and gobble the luscious grapes. But Bekri, the owner, spotted him and yelled…
