The king wanted to test Abu Nawas smartness. So he invited Abu Nawas to palace. You want me, your majesty? Greeted Abu Nawas. "Yes you have fooled me three times and that's too much. Iwant you to leave the country. Otherwise you will have to go to jail,"said the king. If that's what you want, i will do what you said, said Abu Nawas sadly. Then remember from tomorrow you may not step on the ground of this country anymore," the king said seriously.Then Abu Nawas left the king's palace sadly.
The following morning the king ordered his two guard to go to Abu Nawas's house. The guard were very surprised found Abu Nawas still in his house. He had not left the country yet. Instead of leaving the country, Abu Nawas was swimming in small pool in front of his house. Hey, Abu Nawas! Why haven't you left this country yet? The king ordered you not to step on the ground of this country anymore, didn't he? Said the guard. " Sure, he did answered Abu Nawas calmly. But look at me! Do i step on the ground of this country? No, i don't step on the ground. I am swimming on the water, continued Abu Nawas
