The Power of a Tale: Dabasir’s Journey from Slavery to Trading
Dabasir captivates his companions with a story of his own transformation—an age-old story of redemption and resilience. He reveals that he was once a slave in Syria, born into hardship, and later toiled in his father's saddle shop in Babylon. His early life was marked by youthful extravagance and reckless spending, leading him into debt and despair. He describes how he indulged in luxuries beyond his means and, as a result, became heavily indebted, losing his home and his wife.
