Could this be true?
An Arab merchant lived in Isphahan. One morning his servant told him, ‘I’m going to the market-place.’ In a few minutes he was back, He was pale and trembling, His master was concerned and asked him what was wrong. The servant replied, ‘Sir, I saw Death in the market-place and when she saw me she gave a start.’ ‘Take my fastest horse,’ the Arab told his servant, ‘and escape to Samarra.’ The servant did as he was told. After sometime the Merchant went to the market place. He saw death and went up to her. ‘Why did you give a start,’ he asked her, ‘when you saw my servant?’ Death replied, ‘I was surprised to see him here as I have a date with him for this evening in Samarra.’
