the seed of superstition begins to grow Creating Fear and Faith Among Villagers Majeed knows that fear strengthens faith He tells the villagers that they have ignored the saint s grave for years and must now suffer the saint s anger He frightens them by saying that their neglect could bring drought famine or pestilence Out of fear the villagers begin to worship the grave They clean the place light candles and pray Soon the unknown grave becomes the mazar of Saint Shah Sadeque Spreading Rituals and False Devotion Once the villagers believe Majeed strengthens the lie by creating rituals He covers the grave with a red cloth and burns incense sticks He teaches people to bring offerings and prayers to the mazar He says that the saint blesses those who are faithful Slowly the place becomes crowded with visitors Coins and gifts are left on the grave Through these acts an ordinary grave becomes a sacred shrine In Tree Without Roots Majeed converts a simple grave into a mazar through lies fear and people s blind faith His clever use of superstition exposes the weakness of rural belief
