Summary "Abdallah eli nelilehtinen apila: Arabialainen kertomus" by Édouard Laboulaye is a fictional tale written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around a wealthy Egyptian merchant named Hadji-Mansur living in Djeddah, who grapples with the sorrow of not having children. His life takes an uplifting turn when he learns he is to become a father, leading to a series of events that explore themes of fortune, friendship, and destiny. The opening of the narrative introduces us to Hadji-Mansur, a merchant with a tumultuous past, known for his sharp business acumen but haunted by the absence of an heir. His fortunes change when his Abyssinian wife announces her pregnancy, overwhelming him with joy and desires for wealth and legacy. As Mansur dreams of his future son, he decides to name the child Omar after witnessing a dervish as a positive omen. The newly born child is meant to be raised alongside a Bedouin boy named Abdallah, setting the stage for a tale of friendship, rivalry, and the interplay of fate in their lives, foreshadowed by the dervish's mysterious warnings about their destinies.
