A school teacher wrote a note home to Abdul's mother: "Dear Mrs. Nasrudin, your son, Abdul, is a smart boy, but he spends all of his time with the girls. I am trying to break him of this habit."
The teacher received this reply: "I wish you success. Please let me know how you do it. I have been trying for years to break his father of the same habit."

What Is Wrong With Me?
"Doctor," a woman said as she rushed into Mulla Nasrudin's house, "I want you to tell me frankly, exactly what is wrong with me." Nasrudin looked her over from head to foot, then said, "Madam, I have three things to tell you.
First, you are about fifty pounds overweight, Second, your looks would be improved if you took off several layers of rouge and lipstick. And third, i am not the doctor. the doctor's office is across the street."

Painting Wonder
Mulla Nasrudin was chatting with his master who had taken up art.
"When I look at one of your paintings, Sir," he said, "all I can do is stand and wonder."
"Wonder how I do it?" asked the master.
"No," said Nasrudin. "Why you do it."

Law Of Compensation
Mulla Nasrudin's son, home from college, was talking to his father about the "Law of Compensation," which he had studied.
"If a person loses one eye," he explained, "the sight in the other becomes stronger. If he loses the hearing in one ear, the hearing in the other becomes more acute. If he loses one hand, he becomes more agile with the other."
"I guess that's right," said Nasrudin. "I have always noticed that when a man has one short leg the other is longer."

Borrow From Me
A well-known dead-beat caught Mulla Nasrudin on the street one day before the Mulla could duck.
"I am really in a jam and need money," he said to the Mulla," and I have not any idea where I am going to get some." "I am sure glad to hear that," said Nasrudin.
"I was afraid you might have the mistaken idea you could borrow some from me."

Unmarried Forever

Who's The Boss?
"You ought to stand on your two feet and show your wife who is running things at your house," a big, bossy fellow said to his friend, Mulla Nasrudin.
"There is no need to," said Nasrudin, "She already knows."
"There is no need to," said Nasrudin, "She already knows."
