The fiery drink!

In the middle of a cold winter night, Mullah Nasruddin awoke feeling thirsty. Incidentally there happened to be no water at home. Since it was a cold moonless night, Mullah wore a turban around his head, picked up a lamp and made his way towards the well to fetch some water. In his half-sleepy state, Mullah failed to notice a stone lying in the path and tripped over it. As Mullah went sprawling, the lamp knocked out of his hand and broke, spilling all the oil. Just then, his turban came off his head and fell on the lamp. As the lamp glass had broken, the turban quickly caught fire.
