Once, at a festive ceremony at the Emir of Bukhara, Ibn Sina was sitting in a circle of honored guests.
The girls danced to oriental music and served treats. One of them bowed before Ibn Sina with a large dish of pilaf. Having placed the dish, the girl groaned and could not straighten up. Apparently, the dish was quite heavy, and the girl was fragile.
The guests were sitting on the floor, and the poor thing froze in this position. The eyes of those present turned to her. Something had to be done.
Ibn Sina with a sharp movement pinched the girl's breast. She screamed in surprise and straightened up. The vertebra fell into place.
The girl ran away, and those present began to smile, appreciating the resourcefulness of the famous Master.
