The white snake is a fairytale from Morocco.
There is also a Western European fairy tale with the same name, see The White Snake from Kinder- und Hausmärchen. The story from Morocco
Old Mabroek lives with women and children in an oasis in the desert and was one of the pillars of the brotherhood of G'nawa, most of the followers in the desert are black. He is very faithful and opens the mosque doors and greets every day with the prayer of dawn. He walks in front of the pilgrimage to Sidi Moessa's dome, forty kilometers from his oasis. Walking in the sand dunes is difficult and the party of this saint falls in the middle of the hottest of the year. Three days in advance everyone is on the go and a lot of food is taken. Mabroek looks forward to the trip and wants the younger generation to take over.
Mabroek does not participate in the procession of banners and tambourine players, and the first night he sleeps nicely next to the cooking pot in which his wife made choraboom soup. The second day is Marboek sad because he can not live the joy. The third day, his wife prepared couscous and it is on a bowl of butter. The children sit on the mat and Mabroek takes place in the family circle. A white snake appears and twists around the scale and tilts his face just before Marboek. Marboek runs with his walking stick through the desert and comes first to the graft of the saint. He did not see a flying carpet and he was not worn by wings. Sidi Moessa loved him and God had allowed him. Backgrounds
