Description: | Suleyman tells us about a Muslim, who picked figs from the land of St Sergius, and got blinded by the saint. He promised that he would sacrifice his best sheep if the saint would open his eyes. The saint had mercy and opened his eyes, and the Muslim sacrificed his best sheep for the saint. The saint is known for keeping his word. Both Christians and Muslims would go there to swear by his name, when they wanted to find out the responsible person for a certain damage or harm. | |
