The Khalif Haroun er Reshid lay one night between two slave-girls，one from Medina and the other from Cufaand the latter rubbed his handswhilst the former rubbed his feet and made his yard to stand up. Quoth the Cufan girl'I see thou wouldst keep the whole of the stock-in-trade to thyself；give me my share of it.'And the other answered'I have been told by Malikon the authority of Hisham ibn Orwehwho had it of his [grand]father
that the Prophet said'Whoso bringeth the dead to lifeit is his.'But the Cufan took her unawares and pushing her awaytook it all in her own hand and said'El Aamesh tells uson the authority of Kheithemehwho had it of Abdallah ben Mesoudthat the Prophet said'Game belongeth to him who taketh itnot to him who raiseth it.'
