Dimonds & Pearls…!!!

The following incident took place when Muhammed Ali's daughters arrived
at his home wearing clothes that are not modest. Here is the story as
told in detail by one of his daughters:

When we finally arrived, the chauffeur escorted my youngest sister,
Laila, and me to my father's suite. As usual, he was hiding behind the
door waiting to scare us. We exchanged hugs and kisses as we could
possibly give in one day.

My father took a good look at us. Then he sent me down in his lap and
said something I will never forget. He looked me straight in the eyes
and said, 'Hana, everything that God made valuable in the world covered
and hard to get to. Where do you find diamonds? Deep down in the
ground, covered and protected. Where do you find pearls? Deep down at
the bottom of the ocean, covered up and protected in a beautiful shell.
Where do you find gold? Way down and in the mine, covered over with
layers and layers of rock. You've got to work hard to get them.'
