Disappointed at Majnun's action, his parents took him to the Ka`aba, and told him to pray as they would pray; he said yes. The multitude followed, to see what prayer was going to take place. On hearing the name of Majnun, Majnun's parents first prayed, "God, take away the love of Layla from the heart of Majnun." All the others listened. Then they asked Majnun to come and pray as they did. He said, "Then shall I have Layla if I pray?" They urged him to come and pray. He said, "God, give me Layla." And all present said, "Amen."
