However, the hearts of men are fickle and their memories<br>short. Even great men can feel insecure and become petty-minded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> One day David found Saul in a worried state. He sensed something strange in Saul&#8217;s attitude towards him. That night, when he shared his feeling with his wife, she started to weep bitterly <strong>and said<\/strong>: &#8220;O David, I will never keep any secrets from you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8221; She told him that her father had become jealous of his popularity and feared that he would lose his kingdom to him. She advised him to be on his guard.<br>This information shocked David very much. He prayed and hoped that Saul&#8217;s good nature would<br>overcome the darker side of his character. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The following day, Saul summoned David to inform him that Canaan had gathered its forces and would march on the kingdom. He ordered David to advance on them with the army and not to return unless victory was gained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>David sensed that this was an excuse to get rid of him; either the enemy would kill him, or in the<br>thick of battle, Saul&#8217;s henchmen might stab him in the back. Yet he hastened with his troops to<br>meet the army of Canaan. They fought the Canaanites brav, without thinking of their own safety.<br>Allah granted them victory, and David lived to return to Saul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Saul_Plots_to_Kill_David\"><\/span>Saul Plots to Kill David<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, this only increased Saul&#8217;s fear, so he plotted to kill David. Such is jealousy that not<br>even a daughter&#8217;s well-being mattered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Michal learned of her father&#8217;s plan and hurried to warn her husband. David gathered some food and things, mounted his camel and fled. He found a cave in which he remained hidden for many days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>After a time, David&#8217;s brothers and some citizens joined forces with him. Saul&#8217;s position became<br>very weak, for he began to rule with a heavy hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> He ill-treated the learned, tortured the reciters of the Talmud, and terrorized his soldiers. This worsened his position, and his subjects began to turn against him. He decided to go war against David. Hearing this news, David marched to confront Saul&#8217;s army.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"David_Forgives_Saul\"><\/span>David Forgives Saul<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>The king&#8217;s army had traveled a great distance and was overcome by fatigue, so they decided to<br>rest in a valley, where they fell asleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Quietly, David crept up to the sleeping Saul, removed his spear, and cut off a piece of his garment with the sword. David then awakened the king and told him: &#8220;Oh king, you come out seeking me, but I do not hate you, and I do not want to kill you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> If I did, I would have killed you when you were asleep. Here is a piece of your garment. I could have<br>hacked your neck instead, but I did not. My mission is that of love, not malice.&#8221; The king realized<br>his mistake and begged for forgiveness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>for scientific miracles<\/em><\/strong> <strong><em>articles visit<\/em><\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sunofislam.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sunofislam.com\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"www.sunofislam.com\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.sunofislam.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCfj9z\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCfj9z<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/sunof_islam\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/sunof_islam\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>David became the most famous man among the Israelites.
