Once at sea, asking him to renounce his faith, if not throw it overboard. " They left with him, and once at sea, he said: "Lord God! Save me from them with what you want ". The boat turned over and they drowned. He came walking (on water) to the king who said, "what did your companions?". He said: "God saved me from them." He then told the king: "You will never be able to kill me if you do not do what I am ordering you to do. "Order me what" asked the king. "You gather your people on the same stage then you crucify me on the trunk of a palm tree. You take an arrow from my quiver, you place the arrow in the middle of the bow string and you say: "In the name of God, Lord and Master of this young man," then you're pulling me and if the arrow, you do all this, surely you will kill me. " He assembled the people on the same stage, the young man crucified on the trunk of a palm tree, took an arrow from his quiver and placed it in the middle of the bowstring. Then he said: "In the name of God, Lord and Master of the young man." He then shot the arrow that went crashing into his temple. The young man raised his hand to his head and died instantly.
