  In the great trading city of Cairo, where the Nile River brought prosperity to merchants from across the known world, there lived a wealthy but eternally dissatisfied trader named Hakim al-Tamm. Despite owning several shops, a magnificent house, and warehouses full of precious goods, Hakim was consumed by an insatiable desire for more wealth.

  While other merchants were content with honest profits, Hakim spent his days scheming to acquire greater riches. He would cheat customers when he could, underpay his workers, and constantly seek ways to expand his fortune, believing that happiness would come only when he possessed more gold than any other man in Cairo.
