A wife is prepared for bereavement by learning that death comes to us all.

This was one of the stories in our original audio stories collection. These stories are particularly suitable for learning to retell.

This is a variation on the well known story The Mustardseed. For a written version try Arab Folktales (The Pantheon Fairy Tale and Folklore Library) by Inea Bushnaq
