Hatim finally reached the city of Karam. There, he asked people about the man who said the words, “One who speaks the truth is always at peace.” They told him that they did not know anyone who said those words, but there was a man who lived in the old city of Karam, and on his door these words were engraved. He had a big mansion that still looked new even after hundreds of years. The people of the city Karam told Hatim that the person had seen a number of generations go by, yet he did not look a day past his youth. He had lived since the time when the city of Karam stood on that spot! Hatim was so fascinated after hearing the old man’s description that he decided not to rest and walked straight to the old city of Karam to see the mysterious old man.
