One day, Musa and Ibrahim were walking to the farm holding a basket of food

1

All of a sudden, a big black monkey jumped out of the bush and got them scared.

2

The monkey threatens them, and asks them to drop down the basket of foot for him, else, it will bite them.

3

They became very afraid and kept down the basket for the monkey. They ran back home and reported what had happened to their father.

4

Their father thought of what to do and he got a brilliant idea. He gave them another basket, hidding a wicket dog instead of food inside it. On their way back to the farm, the monkey jumpa out of the bush and tries to scare them once more.

5

This time around, the two brothers willingly and happily gave out the basket to the monkey without any hesitation.

6

After collecting the basket, the black monkey opened it expecting to see food. Surprisingly to him however, a big dog jumped out of the basket and started barking and biting his hand while he tries to run for his life.

7

That is how the two brothers went back home feeling satisfied that, the monkey had learnt his lesson.
