The boy suffered badly of buying jalebis with the fees money by being absent from school, “crouching in the shade of a tree in a deserted corner of the railway station” feeling miserable and pathetic.
The camel lived in the middle of the desert because he did not want to work.
No, he did not get the desired four rupees by playing the game. When he went to the rock, there was a big hairy worm that curled, twisted and wriggled towards him. The second time also, when he saw under the rock, he saw the worm coiled on it comfortably.
The dog was assigned the task of carrying and fetching things. The ox was asked to carry the yoke on his neck and thereby plough the field.
The camel was looking at his own reflection in the pool suggests that he loved his image. He was looking into the water to admire himself in solitude.
He decided to play a game with Allah Miyan. He used to form a starting place to touch the signal. Allah Miyan was supposed to put four rupees under the big rock. The boy would touch the signal and come back. It would be fun if he found four rupees underneath the rock.
Yes, he argued his case very well. Some of the points are as follows: He had memorised the last ten surats of Quran and the entire ayat-ul-kursi so he was very religious minded.

The dog, the horse and the ox were very angry because they had to do extra work to compensate for camel’s idleness; while the camel did not do any work.
The Djinn knew that the horse was complaining about the camel through the horse’s description of the camel. Also, being the incharge of the deserts, the Djinn knew about the animals.
