In folklore

The image of the genie Hottabych, who grants wishes with the help of his beard, has long since become popular. Anecdotes and jokes about Hottabych and Volka have spread, in which "adult themes" are usually exaggerated.

Old man Hottabych wakes up in the morning with a terrible hangover, his head is splitting, as if the cats have shit in his mouth ... He reached for his beard, but it is not there. He wakes up Volka sleeping next to him with trembling hands: - Tell me, O venerable Volka ibn Alyosha, where has my beard gone? Volka replies: - I told you, let's immediately order a liter of vodka. And you are all yours: "another fifty, another fifty" ...

In music

The book about Hottabych, as well as a certain genie emerging from the bottle, are mentioned in the song by Vladimir Vysotsky “Song-tale about the genie” (1967).

The hero of the song, a drunkard, whose main life credo is "If I have decided something, I will definitely drink it" - opens another bottle, from which, to his surprise, a genie appears, inviting him to beat someone for his salvation. The alcoholic remembered “the children's detective -“ Old Man Hottabych ”and asked the genie for wine, and then the palace, but the genie told him:“ We are not trained in such matters, and apart from mordobiti - no miracles! ”. On this basis, a quarrel occurred between them, during which the genie hit the drinker. He called the police. The guards of order “took the sick person out, hands him behind his back, and threw him into the“ black funnel ”in a big way. The further fate of the genie to his "liberator" is unknown:

In the infamous article "What Vysotsky Sings About" the song was for some reason called "A Tale of the Russian Spirit", " who poured out of a wine bottle, but, despite his abilities, “could not do anything against the police”. The police took the "Russian spirit"". An unexpected conclusion is drawn from this: “At first, it’s like joking about the police, which“ wring their hands ”and“ throw a sick person on a grand scale, ”and then there is discontent with the law and justice.".

Notes (edit)

Volka and Old Man Hottabych at football. Volka:
- Hottabych, I'm rooting for that team over there, make it win.
- Oh, the most glorious of all youths, you can execute your faithful servant,
but I am powerless here. This is the Russian national football team.

Hottabych, can you conjure without casting a spell?
- Oh Volka, that's how I always do magic.

- You see, O Volka, this is not exactly a spell, you just will
for several thousand years in a row to fulfill the wishes of different e ...
not such spells you will still utter.

Once Old Man Hottabych woke up from a fucking hangover, went up to
the mirror, looks, fuck your mother, no beard. Totally fucked up
asks Volka:
- Volka, where did I fuck my beard?
To which Volka replies:
- I told you, old man, let's immediately order a box of vodka, damn it,
and you all, asshole, 50, 50.

Volka Kostylkov found a bottle at the bottom of the Moscow River.

Ghassan Abdurahman ibn Hottab

APPEARANCE AND CHARACTER:

"It was a skinny and dark-skinned old man with a beard to the waist, in a luxurious turban, a thin white woolen caftan, abundantly embroidered with gold and silver, in snow-white silk trousers and pale pink morocco shoes with high curved toes." The old man was surprisingly quick-tempered and fell into a rage at any trifle, but very quickly calmed down and tried to correct the consequences of his anger. Good-natured and very curious.

MAGIC THINGS AND TECHNIQUES:

Hottabych had a magical beard; when uttering incantations, it was necessary to pluck a hair from the beard and tear it apart. "The old man sighed heavily, tore out one hair, another, a third from his beard, then in his hearts pulled out a whole bundle of it and began to tear them into small pieces with fierceness, uttering something concentrated ..." Often hands were also required for witchcraft. "Then Hottabych began to tickle his fingers in a variety of combinations: now with separate fingers, now with all the fingers of his right hand, now with his left, now with the fingers of both hands, now once with the fingers of his right hand and twice with his left, then vice versa."

RELATIONSHIP WITH TALE HEROES:

The pioneer Volka pulled out an old copper jug from the pond and, opening it, found a genie in it. Djinn Hottabych, in gratitude for his salvation from a thousand-year imprisonment, decides to do good to Volka and fulfill all his wishes.

CONSEQUENCES OF MAGIC:

With tips on the geography exam, Hottabych obtained a re-examination for Volka. So that Volka could get into the cinema for an adult film, the genie conjured a beard for him, and all the spectators came to look at the bearded boy. Hottabych presented the pioneer with a magnificent palace and a caravan of slaves, who had to be urgently removed to avoid trouble. Attempts to create a watch and a phone ended in failure, tk. the wizard did not know how they worked. In the end, the genie got a job as an illusionist in a circus.

Note:

Hottabych's brother is Omar Yusuf ibn Hottab, taken out of a jug by Volka's friend Zhenya, an unattractive old man with an evil face and eyes burning like hot coals. He promised that Zhenya would die of old age and immediately turned him into an ancient old man. Having envied Hottabych's gold teeth, he conjured diamond ones for himself. I wanted to personally check what the moon looks like and, despite persuasion, went into space. Due to its low body weight, it turned into an artificial satellite of the Earth.

L. Lagin. Old Man Hottabych. - M .: Children's literature, 1973.

People come to Jerusalem for the sake of the Old City, and usually they get to the Old City through the Jaffa Gate. Excursions begin from the square at the Jaffa Gate; many tourists always crowd here. I don’t know how many of them, at least for the sake of boredom, paid attention to the plaque with the name of the square: Omar ibn-Khattab square. Those of the "Russian-speaking" who read the tablet probably immediately shared this news with friends: "Look, look, the square named after old man Hottabych!"

Strictly speaking, the cute hero of L. Lagin's fairy tale was called Gassan Abdurahman, and Omar Yusuf ibn-Hottab was his younger brother with a bad character, who at the end of the book turned into an artificial satellite of the Earth. However, neither one nor the other has nothing to do with the topic of my story.

Because this square is named after Omar ibn Khattab (581-644), whose name is customary among Muslims to pronounce with deep respect and the obligatory saying "may Allah be pleased with him." Respect for Omar is what he deserves. First, he was one of those rich and noble inhabitants of Mecca who not only knew Muhammad personally, but also recognized him as a prophet. By the way, Omar converted to Islam after a personal meeting with Muhammad, whom he had previously wanted to kill as a preacher of a hostile doctrine. A tricky question for those who consider themselves Orthodox Christians: which of the Christian saints had a similar fate: from a persecutor of the righteous faith, he turned into its defender and builder?

Secondly, Muslims revere Omar ibn Khattab as the second righteous caliph (that is, the deputy of the Prophet on earth). And even the fact that Omar did not become the first of the caliphs is credited to him. After the death of Muhammad in 632, the question arose of choosing a successor to the Prophet. In order to avoid a possible quarrel and even a civil war, Omar personally and publicly acknowledged the primacy of his rival Abu Bakra (572 - 634) by shaking his hand first. Abu Bakr thus became the first caliph. And two years later, after the death of Abu Bakr, Omar ibn Khattab became the second caliph.

Thirdly, Omar ibn Khattab can be considered the founder of the Arab empire and Muslim statehood. The fact is that under his predecessor, the power of Islam was consolidated only on the Arabian Peninsula. Under Omar, the successful conquests of the surrounding countries began. On August 20, 636, Arab troops defeated the Byzantine army at the Battle of Yarmouk and captured Damascus. In December of the same year, they defeated the Persian troops (armed with even war elephants). Jerusalem was taken in 637, and in 639-641 a relatively small detachment of Arab cavalry conquered Egypt.

Thus, a large territory was ruled by Muslims, and on it were many peoples professing different religions. Largely thanks to the efforts of Omar ibn Khattab, an order was established in this territory that ensured prosperity and stability. In the conquered countries, local customs and local languages were preserved. The forcible conversion of Christians, Persians and Jews to Islam was prohibited. At the same time, it would be wrong to talk about the absolute tolerance of Muslims. The adherents of the "true faith" had definite and significant advantages.

Under Omar, a tax system was established, which has basically survived to this day in all Muslim countries. This system provided not only the collection of money for the central government, but was, as we would say now, "socially oriented". Large funds remained in the hands of the governors and went to help the poor and disabled, as well as to develop Muslim education.

Under Caliph Omar, the Muslim chronology was also widely introduced. The Muslim year consisted of 12 lunar months, that is, 354 days. The date of Muhammad's resettlement from Mecca to Medina (July 16, 622) was taken as the beginning of the chronology. This calendar is still used in all Muslim states.

The square in the Old City named after Omar ibn Khattab is also well deserved. By taking the city away from the Byzantines, he lifted the 500-year ban on Jews from settling in Jerusalem. Moreover, since the Byzantine authorities deliberately turned the territory of the Temple Mount into a landfill, by order of the Caliph, this landfill was cleared. Jews were allowed to pray on the Temple Mount. The place where the Holy of Holies of the Jerusalem Temple was located was noted, and after the death of Omar ibn Khattab, in 685-705, a mosque with a gilded dome was built on this place, which is now called either the "Dome on the Rock" or "Mosque Omar ". This gilded dome appears in almost all photographs of the Old City. It is mistakenly believed by many to be the dome of the Al-Aqsa Mosque. In fact, Al-Aqsa is located on the southern edge of the Temple Mount and its dome is not gold, but gray.
