A muslim friend told me the following joke, which exemplifies the Muslim concept of winning and losing:
"God was walking along when he came across an American who was crying. When God asked him what was the matter, the American told him, 'My neighbor's got a Hummer and I haven't' When God asked him, 'What do you want me to do about it?' the American replied, 'I want you to get me one, too.' God went on his way and ran into a weeping Frenchman. He asked him what was wrong, and the Frenchman told him, 'My neighbor's got a house on the Champs Elyées and I haven't.' When God asked him what he would like him to do, the Frenchman replied, 'I want you to get me one just like it.' God continued on his way until he saw an Arab in tears and asked him what was wrong. 'My neighbor's got a camel and I haven't,' replied the Arab. When God asked him what he cold do to help, the Arab told him, 'Kill my neighbor's camel!'" |
