Fish Headffor the Fisherman

A fisherman righteous in Tunisia living in a simple hut of clay. Every day he drives his boat to catch fish. Every day, he used to deliver all their catches on the poor and leaving only a piece of boiled fish head for it as dinner.
The fisherman then studied to great sufi sheikh, Ibn Arabi. As time passed, it became a sheikh as his master.
At one point, one of the students the fishermen will not travel to Spain. Fishermen were asked to visit the Shaykh al-Akbar, Ibn Arabi. Fishermen were advised that the requested advice to him. He felt in his soul deadlock.
The students went to the city of Ibn Arabi. To the locals, it is asking the residence of the sheikh. People showed him a beautiful castle like a castle standing on top of a hill. "That's the house of Sheikh," they said.
The student was shocked. He thought how very worldly than his teacher Ibn Arabi, who are nothing more than a simple fisherman.
With great hesitation, he went to visit the mansion shown. Along the way it passes through the fertile fields, the streets are clean, and a lot of cattle, sheep, and goats. Every time he asked the people he meets, he always answers that the owner of all estates, land, and livestock was none other is Ibn Arabi. Ceaselessly he asked himself, how could a materialistic as it can be a Sufi master.
When he arrived at the castle, what proved to be the most feared. Wealth and luxury that he witnessed at the house of the sheikh he never imagined, even in his dreams. The walls were made of marble, the entire surface of the floor is covered with expensive carpets. The waiters dressed in silk. Their clothes more beautiful than what is worn by the richest man in his village.
Students were asked to meet with the sheikh. The waiter replied that Shaykh Ibn Arabi caliphs were visiting'll be right back. Shortly thereafter, he saw a procession approaching the castle. First appearing forces honor guard composed of soldiers caliph, complete with gleaming armor and weapons, riding horses dashing arabia. Then came Ibn Arabi with a very beautiful silk dress, complete with turban commonly worn by the sultan.
The students then brought before Ibn Arabi. The waiters made up of a handsome young man and pretty girl brought pastries and refreshments. The students also delivered a message from his master. It became increasingly alarmed and indignant when Ibn Arabi told him, "Say to your master, the problem is it still too attached to the world."
When the disciples returned to his village, the fishermen teachers enthusiastically asked if he had met with the sheikh of it. Full of doubt, the student admitted that he had indeed met. "Then," said the fisherman, "whether it entrusts to you a good advice for me?"
At first, the students refused to repeat the advice of Ibn Arabi. It is deeply offensive berkecukupannya considering how he sees life Ibn Arabi and how berkekurangannya his own life.
But because the teacher was constantly forced, finally the disciples told him about what was said by Ibn Arabi. Hear it all, the fisherman tears. Plus his amazement, how could Ibn Arabi's life in such a lavish, bold advise teachers that they are tied to the world.
"He's right," replied the fisherman, "it really does not care about all that she had. As for me, every night when I eat fish heads, I always wished that the whole fish.
