Come. Let me share with you what I found in Parables. Written by Syed Hassan Al-Attas.
The Iman And The Mouse.Once upon a time, three new converts were standing in prayer. One became the Imam, while the other two prayed behind him. While they were praying in deep concentration, a mouse passed by. One of them said, "Eh, a mouse.."
Upon hearing his companion remarks, "Quiet! Don't you know that those who are praying cannot speak?"
The Imam then replied, "I am the only one who has not spoken."

Constant In Speech
There was once a dervish who lived in Turkey. One day, someone asked him, "How old are you?" He replied, "Forty years old."
"Three years ago, when I asked you your age, you said you were forty years old too."
"True. I never change what I say about my age."

The Fat Man And The Thin Man
Two dervishes were travelling together. One of them was fat and the other was thin. The thin man was always fasting while the fat mat ate more than eleven times a day! One day, they arrived at a certain country. Unfortunately, they were mistaken to be criminals and were captured and imprisoned.
After two weeks, they were found to be innocent and the jail gates were opened to set them free. Unfortunately, the fat dervish had died but the thin man was still alive. The king ruling the country at that time was surprised to hear this. Finally a wise man stood up and said, "Sire, the fat man enjoyed eating, so when he was given a very little to eat in jail, he could not take it. That was why he died. The thin man however was used to fasting. This means that he has trained himself to withstand hunger. That is why he is alive."
