ALAS!....HE WAS CAUGHT
God blessed Omar with wisdom to master for practical exam. Since he had lots of time, he was confident. The day came for physics practical exam. Students entered the lab one by one and they all seemed tense due to exam fear. External examiners were from other colleges and they had a box in front of them. One by one took a piece of paper from the box in which question was printed and showed it to examiner. Omar did the same thing and examiner noted down his question number and handed him the paper. When he opened the paper there was a difficult question in electricity. He didn't know formula for it. However he made all electrical connections properly and tried to take readings. Still the equipment didn't work and he tried in so many ways but of no avail. At last he went to examiner and said, "Sir! the equipment is not working". Examiner tested it many times and said, "Yes..your equipment is not working and I'll make a note of it in your answer sheet; continue with your work". Omar asked, "If the equipment doesn't work properly...I'll be getting wrong answer". He assured that he knew it and made a note on his answer sheet that the equipment was not working.
Now Omar had two problems first he didn't know formula, secondly the equipment didn't work. He prayed, "Lord! Help me in this horrible situation. Just like David I pray....I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence comes my help. He will not suffer they foot to be moved: he that keeps you will not slumber. Somehow help me to pass this exam. Give me the formula for this question. Satan is trying his level best to destroy my faith in you and let him be put to shame. I pray this in Jesus name". He praised God. Silently he prayed in tongues with the anointing of the Holy Ghost. Correct formula appeared in his mind and he thanked God for it. In order to wash electrodes he went to the water sink nearby. As he washed his electrodes, from his back his classmate whispered, "I don't know formula for my question. Do you know?" Sunder came close to him and started washing his electrode. Omar was surprised because Sunder was the best student and he always obtained first rank in class. He himself sought Omar's help and Omar felt proud. Omar told him formula. While they were washing and discussing softly, Omar forgot that he was in exam hall. When they turned back, they saw examiner standing behind him listening to everything. Omar stood as though he saw a ghost. Examiner demanded angrily, "Where is your answer paper? What is your examination number?" Omar showed his answer paper and murmured his number. When others heard the noise, they all turned around and starred at them. Omar was caught red handed. Examiner wrote this in red ink in the papers of Omar and Sunder. Omar felt ashamed and didn't dare to look at anyone. He felt like a wolf covered in a sheep's skin.....outside putting on Christian act though inside evil deeds. He thought about terrible consequences. For duty sake he finished exam and came out. Others felt sad for him. Some criticized him, "They will fail you in this, so you better get ready to write exam once again in September". Some lectured to him, "How can you write in September.....if they catch you red handed they'll will debar you from writing exam for three years. After three years you would have forgotten everything.....you go to a tutorial college to learn everything all over again and write your exams". Omar heard everything silently and returned to his room with his head down.
