The mullah was new and very young, he told himself with disgust.
2
Shah Mirza went off joyfully, evidently having implicit faith in the mullah.
3
The mullah stood with his back to it and beckoned King nearer.
4
The mullah glared at him but let him by without a word.
5
The mullah did not look round, for he knew what was happening.
1
The shaikh, or holy man, consented; for the acceptance of such an invitation accorded with the sunnat, or law and tradition of the prophet.
2
We rode up the street of Remmoon, and found the shaikh and principal men of the town lazily smoking in the shadow of a house.

Every kraal has its Oddai (shaikh or head man,) after whose name the settlement, as in Sindh and other pastoral lands, is called.
4
Shaikh said outlining a future vision could build up opposition to Assad.
5
Shaikh Ibrahim said to himself: 'Why am I sitting so far away?
1
They assemble in a large hall, where they take their seats in a semi-circle, facing the shekh.
2
The sultan then took leave of the shekh, and returned with his intended son-in-law to the palace.
3
Previous to the experiment, we had decided on making a bargain with the shekh for the journey to Palmyra.
4
When it was noon the shekh again desired his pupil to knock at another door, and order dinner to be brought in.
5
This he said out of compliment; but the shekh replied, "My lord, the marriage cannot be valid without a dower."

But death stepped in, and the Akhoond passed into history.
2
When not busy in the wars, the Akhoond was always to be found at Saidu.
3
The Akhoond was not, however, its civil ruler.
4
The title Akhoond merely means "teacher," and he was, primarily, a religious teacher and nothing more.
5

10
The sheikh had been hospitable to Stanton, but things were different now.
11
I do not see the sheikh being eager to part with you.
12
The sheikh's eyes twinkled as he recognized the force of that argument.
13
How does the sheikh reward the boys for their quest for knowledge?
14
The sheikh's people, as they came near the elephants, began screeching violently.
15
Even the sheikh's wife and daughters performed their part, with our assistance.
16
That makes Qadir no better than the French in the sheikh's eyes.
