Shepherd and the Wolf


Once a shepherd had taken his goats to graze. At that time a wolf caught one goat and ran off. The Shepherd started shouting. At that moment, the wolf left the goat and started speaking to the shepherd. The wolf said, “I am surprised at you people, Mohammad (s.a.w.a.) is calling people toward the truth in Mecca and you people are in unmindful”. The shepherd after hearing this became Muslim. He went to his tribe and narrated the incident. Thereafter, the children of shepherd prided to the fact that they were children of the person with whom a wolf had conversed.
