Bahlool and the Funeral Procession

The judge of the city passed away, and a large crowd gathered to attend the funeral. Someone asked Bahlool, “Is it better to walk in front of the coffin or behind it during the procession?” Bahlool replied, “It doesn’t matter whether you walk in front or behind the coffin. The important thing is to avoid being the one inside the coffin!”

This story shows Bahlool’s humor and wisdom, emphasizing that the most important thing in life is not the details of ceremonies, but rather ensuring that we remain alive and active in our journey.
