Habib and the Soup

The wife was in a hurry and took a big spoonful of soup, and because the soup was extremely hot, tears flowed from her eyes.
So Habib asked her, “Why are you crying?�
The wife evaded admission of the truth and said to Habib, “I remembered that my mother loved soup very much, and if she were not dead, she would eat soup with us.�
Habib did not say anything and started eating the soup. He filled a spoon from the middle of the pot and ate it, and tears began to flow from his eyes.
The wife smiled sarcastically and said to him, “Why are you crying, Habiby?�
Habib said, “I am crying because your mother loved you greatly and was so attached to you, so why did she not take you with her?�
