Description:Suleyman tells us about a man who found a naked djinn in his house. The djinn promised that it would make him wealthy if kept this as a secret, and that it would make him poor if he revealed the secret. The man did not believe the djinn and exposed it to the villagers. That man lived in poverty and without children for the rest of his life.
