Disappointed by all worldly efforts, the prince sought refuge in prayer. It was such a deep and sincere one, thus answered well by Allah, and in answer there to a physician was sent from heaven. He was the master…spiritual healer…, and he disregarded the royal physician’s view and employed his own method of investigation into the heart…a very skillful diagnosis was reached. He had discovered that the real cause of the maiden’s illness was her love for a certain goldsmith of Samarcand. Who had bought her, kept her alone for six months, and then resold her. She was in love with his physical smartness, could not part with him, and was unable to bear his deceit and exploitation of her. Unable to reject and denounce her beloved (goldsmith), she had denied the sincere love of the prince.
The physician asked the prince to fetch a goldsmith from Samarcand and hand over the slave girl. The prince, who has surrendered his soul to love, surrendered to Divine Will and did as the holy physician commanded. The girl reunited and married the goldsmith, restoring her health and happiness.
