An interesting anecdote narrated by Chaudhry Sahib comes to my mind. When Chaudhry Sahib went to Tashkent, the Muslims there invited him to a dinner.
Among the guests was the Mufti of Tashkent who was quite huge. When the dinner started, some of the participants realized that the Mufti was feasting at a galloping speed.
Impressed by his swiftness, one of the diners asked him rather facetiously, as if seeking his ruling on the issue, “Mufti Sahib! At what point do you say that so and so is fully satiated or how can you tell that he is really satiated.”
Mufti Sahib was a very experienced and seasoned person; he understood fully where he was coming from. He replied very confidently: “People may have their own experiences in this regard. However, in the light of my prolonged experience, you can only pronounce someone ‘satiated’ when either the food before him is finished or he himself is finished!”
Chaudhry Sahib used to narrate this anecdote in such an interesting manner that each time it was amusing in a new way.
