Abu Nuwas ingenuity in solving a problem that occurs in and around it makes the king Baghdad Harun Al-Rashid very curious to find weak points, so the king made unrelenting test Abu Nuwas. One day the king summoned Abu Nuwas to come to the palace because there is something to say. Then came the Abu Nuwas to the palace to the wondered, "What else the king called?" 

Abu Nuwas arriving in front of the palace, the king came to see him and told to sit. "Lately I often get stomach upsets. Said the royal physician, I was exposed to cold," king began to open up the conversation.

"Dear Lord, what can be done so that my Lord called me here?" Asked Abu Nuwas.

"I just want you to catch the wind and imprison him," the word of the king.

Abu Nuwas pause. Not a word out of his mouth. He was still confused how to prove that the arrest was really a wind. Wind can not be seen, and no more strange objects from the wind. Another case with water, although not colored but can still be seen. The king gave me three days to complete its task.

Then Abu Nuwas go home with shared command of the king. The statutes are made Abu Nuwas must drain all its capabilities. Although there were heavy live, but Abu Nuwas realize that this is part of life must be lived. He believe that Allah will spread way out of any trouble that afflicts every humans.

Abu Nuwas wits to solve the problem, while the next day the given by the king was gone. It is making Abu Nuwas could not sleep all night. The dawn began to emerge was greeted with chant that echoed dawn call to prayer from the mosque to mosque. After praying at dawn, Abu Nuwas begged Allah  to be given a way out of the issue.

It was late afternoon, but Abu Nuwas have not found a way out. "Maybe it's my destiny to get into jail for failing to carry out the commandment of the king," said Abu Nuwas herself as he trudged toward the palace. On the sidelines of devotion to fate, he suddenly rememberred something, namely Aladin and the lamp will. "Is not that the genie does not look?" Asked Abu Nuwas in the heart. He was prancing bubbling excitement then quickly ran go home after nearly 5 kilometer journey to the palace had gone through. Arriving at home, Abu Nuwas immediately prepared his needs to be given the king.

After all puposes was ready, with a confident and sure steps, Abu Nuwas rushed to the palace, because the king was looking forward presence. Exactly, when he set foot on the righ of the palace gate, the guards immediately lets him go because the king was impatient waiting for his presence.

Sitting on a plush throne, the ruler of Baghdad is a direct bill promises Abu Nuwas, "How Abu Nuwas? Do you have imprisoned the wind?"

"Already, the glorious majesty," replied Abu Nuwas with beaming face, taking out a bottle that was corked and hand over to the king.

"Where the wind, Abu Nuwas?" the king asked with curiosity.

"I do not see anything," denies the king.

"Sorry, my lord, is the wind can not be seen, but if your majesty want to feel the wind, this cap should be opened first," says Abu Nuwas explained.

In accordance with the request Abu Nuwas, the king of Harun Al-Rashid immediately open the bottle cap. The stench was terrible out of the bottle makes the king almost threw up.

"What's that smell, oh Abu Nuwas?" Asked the king angrily.

"Sorry, the glorious lord, before I pass gas and then put it into the bottle. For fear the wind that I throw it out, then I was imprisoned in a bottle," Abu Nuwas replied with a half frightenend.

Abu Nuwas explanation makes sense, so the king did not get mad at him. For the umpteenth time, Abu Nuwas survived the test of a given king of Harun Al-Rashid. Abu Nuwas incessantly utter gratitude for the gift of Allah  given to him.
