Khoja heard that opium is intoxicating. He wanted to find out if this was so, and bought opium from the moscatel. After trying a little, he then went to the bathhouse.
While washing, he thought: “What nonsense! And it doesn’t get you drunk, and it doesn’t go to your head. They say all this on purpose. Or did the moscatel deceive me? I’ll go to him and find out.” With these words, he ran out into the street naked. Passers-by asked him:
- Khoja, what does this mean?
He explained it to them in detail, and everyone roared with laughter.
