Answer:

There was once an old man who had three sons and saventeen camels. The sons were called Hameed, Naeem and Rafiq. The father was getting very old and one day he called his sons together and said, 'Boys, I am old and one of these days I will die. When I am gone please promise me that you won't quarrel over my camels. I want you to divide the camels in this way. Hameed, you are the oldest and you must have half the camels. Naeem, You are the second and you must take a third. Rafiq will get a ninth.'

The boys promised not to quarrel but do exactly as their father had commanded. A few days later when the father died, the boys arranged the funderal and when that was over they got down to the business of sharing the camels.Hameed, the eldest boy, said, 'Father wanted me to have half the camels, but half of seveteen is eight and a half. How can I take half a camel? The best idea would be for me to take nine camels and you two can share the rest.'

The others did not agree. Naeem said, 'You are already getting the biggest share. Why should you get half a camel more? It's best that you take eight.' Hameed said that it was a good idea but it was not according to their father's wish. The youngest, Rafiq, interrupted: 'How about selling one camel and then dividing the money?' The other two did not agree to this suggestion. 'Then what about killing one camel and feeding the village in memory of our father?' asked Rafiq.
