Moses and the Shepherd (Persian: موسی و شبان) is a story from the 13th-century Sufi work Masnavi, by the Persian poet Rumi. The story tells how Moses one day happens to overhear an ignorant shepherd praying to God. The shepherd promises to wash God's clothes, to bring God milk to drink, to comb God's hair and kill his lice, and other such actions as one might do for a beloved friend. Moses rebukes the shepherd for attributing human characteristics to God, and also for speaking to God in such a familiar manner. The shepherd abjectly apologizes and rends his garment in contrition.
