Mullah Nasruddin's house was on fire, so he ran up to his roof for safety. There he was, precariously perched on the roof, when his friends gathered in the street below holding a stretched-out blanket for him and shouting, "Jump, Mullah, jump!"
"Oh no I won't," said the Mullah. "I know you fellows. If I jump, you'll pull the blanket away just to make a fool of me!"
"Don't be silly, Mullah. This isn't a joke. This is serious. Jump!"
"No," said Nasruddin. "I don't trust any of you. Lay that blanket on the ground and I'll jump."
