The talking Donkey of the Bible

The Talking Donkey of the Bible

Sami Zaatari

The Bible is a book filled with great myths, fables, and magical adventures.

One of these great fables and magical story is the talking donkey who spoke to Balaam!

Numbers 22: 28-30

8 And the LORD opened the mouth of the ass, and she said unto Balaam, What have I done unto thee, that thou hast smitten me these three times? 29 And Balaam said unto the ass, Because thou hast mocked me: I would there were a sword in mine hand, for now would I kill thee. 30 And the ass said unto Balaam, Am not I thine ass, upon which thou hast ridden ever since I was thine unto this day? was I ever wont to do so unto thee? And he said, Nay.

The story speaks for itself, Balaam feels insulted by the talking donkey, and then the talking donkey tries to calm Balaam down!

I only bring this up to silence desperate missionaries who always argue against hadiths which show supernatural events. Therefore whenever you come up with one of these missionaries.

And Allah Knows Best!
