The Story of the One-Eyed Pirate and His Daughter Jasmine

There was a pirate called Abu Ein who was harsh, violent, and evil, who stole gold from ships and also ice cream from girls, and he treated his employees and workers with extreme severity, but the sailor Murtaq loved apples so he would eat them secretly behind the pirate Abu Ein’s back. One day the pirate saw him, so he ordered the men to throw him into the sea for the sharks.

Everyone feared the pirate, but the pirate did not fear anyone except his daughter Jasmine. She always told him that she loved him, but she did not love evil and did not like his behavior or actions. She told him that he must change and that God Almighty is capable of changing him, so he would reply to her and say I do not want to change. She would say to him in that case I cannot live with you, so he would say to himself it is possible when Jasmine sees me doing beautiful things she is likely to love me.

So the pirate Abu Ein took his daughter to the amusement park, and they rode the rides and ate the meal that Jasmine loved a lot - the delicious berry cake. In the morning of the next day, the pirate Abu Ein found the sailor Murtaq eating apples, so he was surprised and asked him in astonishment you are not dead yet, so he ordered the men to arrest him and throw him again into the sea.

So Jasmine discovered at that time that the pirate Abu Ein would not change, as it was only an apparent change. Jasmine was very sad about that, so she went to sleep, but she did not wake up from sleep, so the doctor came, and he said to him you must treat her, so he said to the doctor I cannot do that, and for the first time in the pirate’s life, he discovered that he has an eye that tears. The pirate Abu Ein prayed to God Almighty and said that he was longing for change, but there was no power with him, so you are stronger than me oh God help me and change me and heal my daughter Jasmine.

The pirate Abu Ein changed and started treating the sailors with good treatment, and took them to the amusement park after his daughter Jasmine recovered, and invited them to a big party, and then the pirate Abu Ein lived happy in inner peace because he learned that true change starts from within and starts only with the full power that God Almighty places in us…
