In this tale from Jami's Haft Awrang, a simple-minded man from Ghor takes refuge in a shop, eats the shopkeeper's food, and falls asleep. When warned to flee because the city's ruler has ordered a search, the man hides in a minaret but foolishly shouts out, instructing the searchers not to look for him because he is not there. This narrative serves as an allegory illustrating the nature of extreme ignorance and stupidity. It demonstrates how a foolish person's own naive words and actions inevitably expose their guilt and whereabouts, despite their attempts at concealment.
