A local, but rich man, decided to take a trip around the world. He took half of his gold, put it into a clay pot, covered it with palm oil, and gave his close friend to keep, not declaring the true contents of pot. The traveled with the other half of gold.

A year passed, and a search by the friend revealed the source of an offensive smell in his room to be the pot. He threw away its content, and saw the gold, which he picked from the ground. He then, replaced the palm oil and kept the pot.

Another year passed, and the rich man returned. He requested for his pot and it was given to him. Getting home, he saw that the gold was gone. He then realized his foolishness of not informing his friend of the true contents of the pot. Consequently, he could not demand for the gold, and wasted away in silence and agony.

Some months later, he was visited by an old friend from another village, who saw his plight and offered a solution that would redeem his gold and over!

He was to get a good sculpture (to carve a look-alike image of the friend who stole his gold), and a baby monkey that was to be chained to the carved image, and nurtured for the next six months.

When the monkey was six months old, the rich man was sent to asked his friend (who stole the gold), to allow his son (Musa) to follow him to the market, so as to help carry some goods home. He agreed, saying, "Haba, Musa is your son. Do you have to ask for permission?"

The rich man took Musa and hid him, and later returned to Musa's parents alone, telling them that something strange happened at the market, that as their son (Musa) bent down to carry the goods, he turned into a monkey!

The rich man asked them to wait while he went to fetch him. As he left, Musa's entire family had gathered outside their home, not believing a word of the report.

The rich man got home, unchained the monkey from the look-alike image of his friend (which had served as a home for the monkey), returned with the monkey, and released it when he neared the gathering.

The monkey, seeing Musa's father, held on to his legs, (thinking he was the image of which it was used to!). As the monkey held on to Musa's father, the rich man shouted, "Everybody see!. He recognized his father out of the whole gathering!!".

Musa's father struggled and tried to push away the monkey, but the monkey held fast. With a heavy heart, Musa's father chained the monkey in the backyard, as they could not take it into the house.

When villagers came to see the monkey, it would just sit still, but anytime Musa's father appeared, the monkey always made attempt to hold on to him, thereby confirming the rich man's claim that the monkey was really Musa, and that he recognized him!

After two weeks of refusing food, Musa's father visited the rich man and asked, "Tell me in the name of God, did Musa really turn into a monkey?" The reply, "Is anything impossible in this world? If gold in a pot can disappear, what makes you think your son did not turn into a monkey?"

Musa's father said, "Say no more. Your gold did not disappear, I only kept it for you. Wait, let me go and bring it." He returned with a pot filled with gold to the brim, and Musa was also released to him.

Every problem has a solution, if you thing hard enough.
