‎قِصَّةُ سَلْمَى وَالرَّجُلِ الغَرِيبِ

‎كانَتْ سَلْمَى طِفْلَةً ذَكِيَّةً وَمُهَذَّبَةً، تَسْكُنُ مَعَ أُسْرَتِها فِي حَيٍّ هادِئٍ. كُلَّ صَباحٍ، تَذْهَبُ إِلى المَدْرَسَةِ وَتَعُودُ إِلى البَيْتِ فِي الوَقْتِ المُحَدَّدِ.
‎فِي يَوْمٍ مِنَ الأَيّامِ، خَرَجَتْ سَلْمَى مِنَ المَدْرَسَةِ، وَهِيَ تَسيرُ فِي الطَّريقِ كَعادَتِها. فَجْأَةً، وَقَفَ أَمامَها رَجُلٌ غَريبٌ، وَقالَ لَها بِصَوْتٍ لَطيفٍ:
«تَعالَي يا صَغيرَتي، لَدَيَّ حَلْوَى لَذيذَةٌ لَكِ».
‎تَذَكَّرَتْ سَلْمَى نَصِيحَةَ أُمِّها الَّتي قالَتْ لَها دائِمًا:
«يا سَلْمَى، لا تَثِقي بِأَيِّ شَخْصٍ غَريبٍ، وَلا تَذْهَبي مَعَهُ أَبَدًا».
‎نَظَرَتْ سَلْمَى إِلَى الرَّجُلِ بِثَباتٍ، وَقالَتْ بِأَدَبٍ:
«آسِفَةٌ يا عَمِّي، لا أَسْتَطيعُ أَنْ آتِيَ مَعَكَ».
‎ثُمَّ سَرَعَتْ فِي المَشْيِ، وَذَهَبَتْ إِلى بَيْتِها مُباشَرَةً، وَأَخْبَرَتْ أُمَّها بِما حَدَثَ. فَفَرِحَتِ الأُمُّ كَثيرًا، وَقالَتْ:
«أَحْسَنْتِ يا سَلْمَى، فَالحِذْرُ مِنَ الغُرَباءِ يُحافِظُ عَلَى سَلامَتِنا».
‎وَتَعَلَّمَتْ سَلْمَى أَنَّ الأَمانَ أَهَمُّ مِنْ أَيِّ شَيْءٍ، وَأَنَّ عَدَمَ الثِّقَةِ بِالغُرَباءِ يُساعِدُنا عَلَى العَيْشِ بِسَلامٍ.

Salma and the Strange Man
Salma was a smart and polite little girl. She lived with her family in a quiet neighborhood. Every morning, she went to school and returned home at the usual time.
One day, Salma left school and was walking on the road as she always did. Suddenly, a strange man stopped in front of her and said in a gentle voice,
“Come with me, my little one. I have delicious candy for you.”
Salma remembered her mother’s advice, which she always told her:
“Salma, do not trust any stranger, and never go with them.”
Salma looked at the man calmly and said politely,
“I’m sorry, sir, I can’t go with you.”
Then she walked quickly and went straight home. She told her mother what had happened. Her mother was very happy and said,
“Well done, Salma. Being careful with strangers keeps us safe.”
Salma learned that safety is more important than anything else, and that not trusting strangers helps us live in peace.
