â??A taxi driver in Tehran, in a very hot summer day, has many Passengers, and, has room for only one more. He stops at a line up of passengers waiting under a tree (shade),he asks for the destinations of the passengers, and allows the only MULLAH to get on the Taxi. After he drives for a long distance, he looks at the MULLAH, and regrets that MULLAH has to get off as his destination is in the opposite direction! The MULLAH gets off! After MULLAH leaves, other Passengers ask about the logic of Driverâ??s conduct. . The driver replies: I wanted the MULLAH To leave the SHADED AREA FOR A TRUE BELIEVER, AND , to DUMP HIM IN A HOT PLACE TO GIVE HIM HIS OWN MEDICINE!â??
