Why reading is injurious to your health

Why reading is injurious to your health

On 24 January 1556
Humayun wants to read, something, anything
He climbs the steps to his library
To procure a good read

While descending

With many big books
He hears the mullah's call for azaan
Duty calls

Humayun
tries to do namaaz
In doing so, he slips

He dies

When
A
scrupulous and honourable God
Hears the news
He says: Beware
The word, especially when its written, is injurious to your health
