The story of the prince and his servant who was devoted to prayer and had a great affinity for prayer and supplication with God.
The prince needed a bath at dawn and called out to Sunqur, "Hey, lift your head."
"Take the basin, towel, and soap from the shelf so we can go to the bathhouse, my dear."
Sunqur immediately took the basin and towel and went with him side by side.
There was a mosque on the way, and the call to prayer reached Sunqur's ears in public.
Sunqur was very fond of prayer and said, "Oh my prince, oh kind master."
"Please wait here for a while so I can perform my obligatory prayer and recite 'Lam Yakun.'"
When the imam and the congregation came out, they finished their prayers and recitations.
Sunqur stayed there until nearly breakfast time, and the prince waited for Sunqur for a while.
He said, "Oh Sunqur, why don't you come out?" Sunqur replied, "This skilled one won't let me."
"Be patient, look, I'm coming, oh light of my eyes. I'm not unaware that you're in my ear."
He waited seven times and called out until he became exhausted from waiting.
His response was, "He won't let me come out yet, oh honorable one."
The prince said, "In the end, no one remains in the mosque. Who keeps you there where you are seated?"
Sunqur replied, "The one who has bound you from outside has also bound me inside."
"The one who doesn't let you enter inside doesn't let me come outside."
"The one who doesn't let you step this way has tied the foot of this traveler on this side."
"The sea doesn't let the fish out, and the sea doesn't let the earthlings in."
"The essence of the fish is water, and the essence of living beings is clay. Here, tricks and schemes are futile."
"The lock is strong, and the opener is God. Put your hand in submission and acceptance."
"Even if the keys become tiny particles, this opening is only from the Almighty."
"When you forget your own schemes, you will find that youthful fortune from your old self."
