It has been heard that a strange scene was taking place, on a daily basis, not too far from the Sultan's palace. Apparently, every morning, Joha could be seen stepping out his house's front door, to take a deep breath and exclaim, as loudly as he could, "Let this house be safe from lions!" Then, he would turn around and head back in.
Confused by this odd behavior, the neighbors decided to confront him, after a week had passed since the affair started. They gathered into an impressively large and curious throng and moved as one to seek him out of his home.
When Joha appeared, they asked him, "What is going on with you now? For a week, you've been stepping out every morning to scream, 'let this house be safe from lions?' Don't you know that there aren't any lions around here?"
"Aha!" Exclaimed Joha, "It works."
