The black one that you killed and saved me from was a servant of ours who rebelled against us and had killed several of my household; whenever he found one of us alone, he would kill them. You killed my enemy and revived me, so I have come to repay you for your kind deed toward me."

It was also mentioned in the book "Al-Tanasukh" (Reincarnation) by Professor Tawfiq Ibrahim Issa: "I heard with my own ears from Radio Monte Carlo several years ago while I was traveling They were conducting an interview with one of the presenters of that station—who I believe was named Fayez Maqdisi, the host of the program "Amwaj" (Waves) on that same station. The interviewer asked him: "Which animals do you love?" He replied: "The tiger." He continued, and I could hear him saying: "I feel and sense that I was once a tiger in a previous life." The announcer then asked: "So, you believe in reincarnation?" He replied: "No, but I feel as if I were a tiger one day. Even when I came to France, I found no strangeness in its streets, shops, or alleys; I move through them as if I know them in detail, and as if I used to live and reside there." This is what Fayez Maqdisi conveyed, and I heard it myself. (End).
