So, with fear and trembling, he threw himself from the tower on to the sand; and at midnight he rejoined the Shaikh, and told him his story. The Shaikh immediately set out on his road, saying: "It is better to keep at a distance from the wrath of God." They fled in great haste; and that city is, to this day, buried in sand. Sometimes a wind comes, and lays bare the minaret or the top of the dome. It often happens also, that a strong wind uncovers a house, and when any one enters it he finds everything in perfect order, though the master has become white bones. But no harm has come to the inanimate things. - [Previous: 18.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.18.2) - [Next: 18.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.18.4) - [Up: 18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.18) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.18.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.18.3) · Pramāṇa
