He said, “Go to the market and buy something large enough to fill my bedroom, but small enough to fit in your pocket.

The father told his sons to come into his bedroom one at a time and try to fill up his bedroom with their items. The first son came in and put some pieces of cloth he bought and laid them across the room, but it barely covered the floor.
