Description: | Suleyman tells us about a Muslim woman in Istanbul who had heard that her Christian friend was going to visit the St Gabriel Monastery. As she could not have any children, she asked the Christian woman to bring sand of saints from the St Gabriel Monastery. When the Christian woman returned to Istanbul, she was visited by the Muslim woman, and as she had not brought any sand of saint with her, she took ordinary sand and gave it to the Muslim woman. About a year later, that woman had a child. Suleyman explains that her faith caused her to have her child. | |
