EP 4: PYRAMIDS AND LOST PRECIOUS BRACELET|EP 4: ACROSS NILE| A TIME TRAVEL STORY

 DISAGREEMENT WILL NOT BE PARDONED
‘Why you are wandering here and there. Join us in our discussion,’ just then one student from a small room invited them inside. A group of boys seemed to bear different age groups, were revising their lesson about reflection of light delivered by Al Haytham in morning.

‘I’m not agreed with the concept of pin hole camera. How can we save images on any screen like our eyes? This is disgusting. We’re just wasting our time,’ a brown haired, strong looking boy was trying to impose his point.
‘I don’t think so; light enters in our eyes and then reflects back in a straight line. The theory of camera will enhance the beauty of this land one day. Sir, Al Haytham is admirable for such a great work,’ another boy with a small beard argued back. 

‘He seemed right. Knowledge of optics will lead us to save the images out of our eyes soon and also we could be able to cure many sight malfunctioning,’ one of the fellows agreed the second one.
‘Off course,’ Murtaza tried to hold his glasses but he didn’t find any on his nose.

‘I’m not saying it myself. I’m older and more acknowledged than you all. You should concur to me without asking for any justification. Above all he same point is also interpreted in many Islamic books that light can’t travel in a straight line. We should stop this research at once,’ that brown haired boy got up and erupted in anger. It seemed he didn’t like the disagreement at all. In a single loud breath, he tried to give the lot of justifications to prove his point. Silence prevailed among the group for a while. Hassan and Murtaza looked at each other thoughtfully.   
‘I’m not still agreed. We all have read almost all books thoroughly with translation,’ the boy with beard got up calmly and brought a heavy pile of rough brown papers from one corner.
‘Where is it written or interpreted, show me. The argument will be over?’ he forwarded those books.
‘What do you think? Is it really here? You may also have learned these’ small beard boy suddenly turned towards Murtaza and Hassan for support.
‘Actually, we are new comers. We’re about to learn these soon,’ Murtaza replied awkwardly.

‘Learn these soon? These are in Arabic. We only memorize some verses of Quran with translation near the exams and forget after that. We have some books in cupboard but we haven’t touched them even,’ Hassan whispered.
‘Don’t worry, I’ll keep my words,’ Murtaza feeling the strong feeling of guilty at that time.
‘I am sorry, may I have read it somewhere else. Put this back respectfully,’ meanwhile that brown haired boy got embarrassed on his wrong reference after searching thoroughly.  At astonishment to Hassan and Murtaza that group started their discussion again serenely as nothing was happened a while ago.
‘Let us go. We have to take some rest,’ Hassan got up hurriedly and came outside with Murtaza.
‘Thanks god, I thought that man would kill the other but he instantly cooled down after admitting his mistake. I don’t believe this; they all were tolerant about the different point of views of each other irrespective of belonging to different cultures and different sectors of Islam?’ Hassan was surprised.

‘This is 11th century, dude. Muslims were well equipped with the proper religious and worldly knowledge at that time. Their strong educational base enhanced their capability to rule the splendid empires in the following centuries. Not like us, fellows of 22nd century who neither knows the world nor the way to heaven. Every one claims to be scholar at its place and we rush behind him blindly without asking about his/her authenticity,’ Murtaza replied thoughtfully.

A PRECIOUS BURIED BRACELET IN A PYRAMID

‘The security is very tight at pyramids because of the threats and attempts from robbers from all over the world. No one is allowed entering inside the pyramids. We can’t do it for you. I’m sorry,’ one of the men told him. He was looking the chief among those three.
‘I’ll pay more than you can think of. Find any way to enter there. I want this bracelet at any cost,’ He showed them the picture of queen, wearing a beautiful bracelet.
‘A colorful sketch! Do you draw it? Are you an artist?’ they all went amazed after looking at the colorful picture in front of them.
‘No, I’m a scientist. Can you look this bracelet for me or not?’
 ‘Where are you from? You’re looking us strange. Your shadowed face, your dressing, your language, even this picture every thing is bizarre,’ the first man replied again.
‘Nothing is strange. I only have some malfunctioning in my system,’
‘What! Where you have what in you? We don’t understand,’ those robbers looked at each other.
 ‘It’s just because of that so called scientist Zaka. I can’t adjust the language and dressing code while moving in times. I had to move directly from future to past, skipping the present but soon I’ll access it too,’ that strange man got irritated and muttered to himself.
‘Why don’t you understand that I want this bracelet to get rid of my shadow? My physical presence is impossible without the stones from that bracelet? Ok I’ll look for some one else. I can’t let that so called scientist win again,’ he screamed on them and turned back.
 ‘I think we can work out any idea to enter in the pyramids,’ the chief robber stared at the picture thoughtfully and called him back......
