The Guarantor of Gazelle

The hunter ashamed on listening this and became cool. He kept his eyes down and said: “I am following her for quite a long time.”
The merciful man said:“I know.” The hunter said: “she is one of the fastest hind among the desert hinds. I can’t lose her.”
The hind looked with disgust to hunter’s misdeed and cursed him. She got support of his gown to save herself from the hunter. The merciful man had sheltered her in a way that hunter could not reach her. Hind felt happiness.
She felt a lovely feeling which she never experienced before. She never felt such a feeling while grazing and running in pastures, drinking spring’s water, on being a mother of the beautiful babies, grazing in heaven like pastures, taking sun bath, running behind wind, looking towards her pair and enjoying the soft grass.
So what kind of feeling was this? What a state of peace was it? What was this peaceful feeling? Perhaps this was the feeling of safety in the shelter of the merciful man.
The merciful man said to the hunter: “leave the hind in desert for Allah’s sake. Let her to live as she has the right to live.”
The hunter said: “I have also the right to live.” The merciful man said: “will you live your whole life shedding deer’s blood?” the hunter said: “this is also a profession.” The merciful man shakes his head anxiously and said: “this will end up in nothing except the death of the desert’s deer.” The hunter said: “it is their destiny which is written by Allah for them.”
The kind man became furious and said: “hunter commits such atrocity.” Showing no patience the hunter said: “I don’t bother these things, just give me the hind and end up this game.” The kind man said: “hind has right to live freely in the desert. They have the right to graze, walk, drink spring water and take sun bath.
What a beautiful sight it is! When they are busy in grazing. Isn’t it painful that the desert loses its beautiful hinds on the hands of cruel hunters?”
The hunter had given up his patience. He said angrily: “don’t think that I will leave the hind from hunting by your heart touching advices.” The kindhearted man said: “take anything you want from me except this hind.” Hunter said insistently: “I don’t want anything except the hind.”
The kind man said: “I can’t hand over the hind to you even if I have to sacrifice my life.” The hunter was like a fire tornado. The hunter kept his hands promptly on the dagger which was tied on his waist and said: “if necessary, I will not refrain from shedding blood.” There was hissing of anger and rhetoric from his voice. On the other side the hind was very much worried about the kind man. She was afraid of coming any harm to him. Hind had made a sudden decision and that was to hands her up to the hunter so that the kind man does not get any harm. But what will happen to his kids? Her heart came out on thinking this and tears come out. She made a sigh of pain: “o’ Lord of the deer! O’ Lord of the wide desert, how miserable this life became with the hands of the cruel hunters, which is made so beautiful by you. Heart trembles and the eyes weep.”
Sadness was ruling on her heart. It seemed like thorns had torn her apart.
The merciful man said:“I will give you what you want instead of the hind. What do you want?” the hunter said with pride and selfhood: “I don’t want to make a deal for this hind.” The companions of the kind man said: “then what do you want?” may be you want to sale it on your own price. So it is good to sale it to us which will be a better plan.”
Another companion said:“if you were familiar to our leader, then you might certainly give it to Him.”Hunter said flippantly: “I don’t have anything to say to your leader, I just want to get the hind.” The merciful man said: “the hind had requested for her safety from me in her misery. She is hoping for freedom.” the hunter laughed loudly and said: “you are talking nonsense. Who had heard or listened ever that a hind had requested for help from someone?”
The companions of the kind man said: “it is so disappointing! Aren’t you seeing that? How you are refusing it while knowing each and every thing.”
Suddenly, the kind sight of the merciful man had melted the hunter’s heart. The spiritual, lightening and pure sight of the kind man was attracting everything. He was looking like a king of all hearts.
The hunter felt his weakness in front of him. People called Him Abul Hassan Al Reza. The hunter had turned his face from Him and said: “I don’t know anything, may be you are right, but,………, how?” he couldn’t continue his talk. He turned down his sight. He couldn’t bear to see the beautiful eyes. He thought: “did the hind take shelter of him? He was annoying. He kept thinking for a long time. He thought:“even if she had taken shelter of him I would not her leave to go. I didn’t see any hind fastest than her yet. Long neck, powerful legs, black spotted red skin and two bright eyes! I should to take her to caliph’s court in return he will give me gold dinar.”
Greed and temptation aroused in his heart. The happiness of getting gold coins was clear on his red cheeks. He had left the horse’s stirrup and said forwarding: “I can’t bear more. Hand over me the hind, before any mishap.”
The kind man said:“anger is the enemy of mind. Show some patience.” Then the kind man turned to the hind which was looking towards Him and said: “o’ hind! You had come under my shelter to escape yourself. You are watching the situation. There is no way except to request for another proposal.”
The kind man said to himself: “how poor this hind is. She is eagerly demanding for her safety.” Then He had taken her face in His hands. The hind felt His love and saw a light within her. Her eyes were brightening with happiness.
The kind man said to the hunter: “now as you are not willing to leave her or sale her, then there is another request for you.”
The hunter asked:“let’s see what you want?” the kind Hashmi said: “the hind has little children which are waiting for her. They are worried in her absence. Let her free for some time to go to meet her children for the last time to say goodbye to them.”The hunter said in wonder: “do you think that I am fool to let her go.”
The kind man said: “it is not so.” The hunter said: “you want to make her run by this plan. It’s your dream.” Kind Abul Hassan said: “believe me o’ young man! There is no fraud. I don’t tell a lie and don’t make people fool.” The hunter asked: “then what?”the merciful man said: “I have told you that she has small children. Give her a chance to go and see them for last time.” On listening the children’s name the hind became energetic. She thought about scenes of the greenish grass and plants. She forgot her sadness and her heart filled with the smell of her children as the fragrance of grass touches the hearts and the morning dew reminds of life.
The hunter moving his bear said: “how do you know that her children are waiting for her.” The kind man said: “you can understand from her eyes.”
The hunter said: “if I let her go to meet her children then it will be hard to find her.” the kind man said: “I guarantee you of her return.” The hunter said: “it is nonsense.” The Hashmi Sayyed said: “if she didn’t come back then I will go with you.”
