There lived in a village in Kashmir an old woman and her young daughter. They were very poor, and made ends meet by gathering firewood and selling it. Once, they happened to see a puja being performed. When the mother asked the people doing the puja about it, she was told that it was to the goddess Bib Garazmaej, who was very powerful and would take good care of her devotees. So she went home and planned to do a puja to Bib Garazmaej. Having no wheat, mother and daughter went to the stables where they collected the dung of the horses. This they strained and washed and gathered a few grains of wheat. By doing this repeatedly, they were able to get enough rice to make a roth (a wheat cake) which they offered to the goddess, along with other cakes of cowdung. Pleased with their devotion, the goddess blessed by turning the cowdung cakes into gold. With the money from the gold, the mother and daughter were able to lead a happy life.

One day the king saw the daughter and was captivated by her beauty and asked for her hand in marriage. The mother consented happily and the wedding was celebrated in a grand manner. Even after the wedding, the daughter performed puja regularly to Bib Garazmaej. She would offer the prasad from the puja to the king everytime. The other queens were jealous and they told the king that the prasad would harm him. So the next time he was offered the prasad, the king threw it away. Bib Garazmaej was angered at this and soon the king lost his throne to a rebellion. Bib Garazmaej appeared to the king in a dream and told him that he was being punished for the sacrilege he had commited with her prasad. The king felt sorry and contacted the daughter and told her to perform the puja once more. This time, Bib Garazmaej was pleased and restored the throne to the king after which he too became her devotee.
