What Makes Muslims Laugh
One of the great joys of youth is laughing at fart noises. The variety of flatulent music is endless: wet raspberries, horn-toots, bladder-poofs and all manner of philharmonic flute sounds.
Sadly, Muslims are not allowed to enjoy a good knee-slap when a friend blasts a wet cornet out of his anus by virtue of the following Hadith: Bukhari 8, 73, 68: Mohammed forbade laughing at a person who passes wind, … Well, that certainly puts a damper on having fun.
So if Muslims can't laugh at fart sounds, what can they laugh at?
Bill Warner, the Director of the Center for the Study of Political Islam, elucidates:
Political Islam, It Ain’t Funny, Mohammed
Muslim 031, 5932: … [At the battle of Uhud]… Mohammed said to Saed: Shoot an arrow, may my mother and father be taken as ransom for you. Saed drew an arrow and shot a featherless arrow at the Meccan’s side and he fell down and his private parts were exposed. I saw Mohammed’s front teeth when he laughed.
Muslim 019, 4450: … I said: Mohammed, let me select from our people one hundred men and I will follow the marauders and I will kill them all. Mohammed laughed so much that his molar teeth could be seen in the light of the fire, and he said: Salama, do you think you can do this? I said: Yes, ….
Bukhari 8, 74, 299: ... Mohammed woke up with a smile. 'What makes you laugh, O Allah's Apostle?' He said, 'In my dream some Muslims were displayed before me as jihadists sailing over this sea, like kings on thrones.’
Umayya: 'Now I had bound my prisoner's thumbs with my bowstring, and when Mohammed looked at him he laughed so that one could see his back teeth. He asked my news and when I told him how I had killed a Kafir by pushing my bow through his eye into his brain, he blessed me.'
One of my very first articles when I started blogging was Muslims have no Sense of Humor, but I was wrong - beheadings, slaughter, cruelty, and jihad against infidels, these are the things that bring joy to the Muslim heart.
