Hatimtai
asked, "Who is Husn Bano? Tell me something about her."
Muneer said
that an old man had told him about her. Husn Banoi was the only daughter of a
rich merchant. When he fell fatally sick, he called the king, who was his
friend, and requested him look after his daughter.
He gave all
his wealth to the king. This wealth was to be given to Husn Bano when she grew
up.
The king
looked after up, the king gave her a small palace and all her wealth and she
comfortably lived there.
Husn Bano's
nurse, who had always been with her, was like a mother to her.
Once her
nurse told her that now that she was old enough to marry, many bad people may
desire to marry her in greed for her wealth.
So the
nurse decided to put a condition for anyone who wanted to marry Husn Bano. A
set of seven puzzles had to be solved by the one who wished to marry her. She
wrote these seven puzzles had to be solved by the one who wished on the wall of
the one who wished to marry her. She wrote these seven puzzles on the wall of
the palace for everyone to know.
Munneer
told Hayom, "Out of the seven puzzles the first four are to find out who
said these words and why."
"The
first is, 'Have seen it once but would like to see it again."
"The
second is, 'Do good and cast it into the river."
"The
third is, 'Evil begets evil,"
"The
fifth is to get information about the mountain that echoes."
"The
sixth is to get the pearl that is equal to the size of a duck's egg."
"The
seventh is to gather information about the Hammam Baadgard."
Hated said,
"These seven puzzles are not easy."
Muneer
said, "I know. That is why no one has come to try out these seven puzzles.
But what I do, Hatim? I love Husn Bano, and I want to marry her. But how can I
solve these seven puzzles?"
