SPEAKING UNDER OATH A Mulla Nasrudin Story


SPEAKING UNDER OATH
A Mulla Nasrudin Story
By
VIKRAM KARVE


Mulla Nasrudin was a witness in a court case. He was asked to take the customary oath that he would speak the truth and nothing else but the truth.

What is your occupation?” the judge asked Mulla Nasrudin.

“I am the greatest man in the world, your honour!” replied Mulla Nasrudin.

Surprised at hearing this answer, the judge asked Mulla Nasrudin, “Isn’t that a bit too much to say?”

“I know it does not sound modest, your honour,” said Nasrudin, “but I have no choice since I am speaking under oath.”
