What is greater wealth than knowledge?

The king of Persia was very upset and sad even though there was a lot of prosperity in the whole country and the people of this country were very happy.  Had put  The condition was that I would marry anyone who answered my three questions.  She was the only princess and the daughter of the king of the richest country, so the princes of many neighboring countries, the sons of the richest merchants and very powerful chiefs came to try their luck.  But they all failed and returned and could not answer these questions. This thought made the king sick and he cried and prayed to his Lord: O my Lord, have mercy on us and make things easy for us.  Ali, the son of a teacher living in his own country, also decided to try his luck and presented his request to his father and asked for permission.
