Vengeance – Nasruddin style
One day, Mullah Nasruddin heard a knock on his door. He opened the door and found his daughter standing there crying with a bruise on her eye. “What happened?” Nasruddin asked. She said that she got into a fight with her husband and he beat her. To his, Nasruddin responded by slapping his daughter in the face. He closed the door and quickly called her husband. When he picked up the phone, he told his daughter’s husband, “I heard about what you did, but I’ve had my vengeance – because you hit my daughter, I slapped your wife, take that!”.
Deductive reasoning
– “How old are you, Mullah?”, a boy asked.
– Mullah Nasruddin responded, “3 years older than my brother”.
– “How do you know that?” the boy asked.
-“Reasoning!”, said Mullah Nasruddin. “Last year, I heard my brother tell someone that I was 2 years older than him. A year has passed. Now, I am older by one year. I shall soon be old enough to be his grandfather!”
Tit for tat
Mullah Nasruddin went into a shop to buy a pair of trousers. Once inside, he changed his mind an chose a cloak instead, which was at the same price. Picking up the cloak, he left the shop. “Wait! You have not paid!”, shouted the merchant. The Mullah responded, “I left you the trousers, which is the same value as the cloak”. “But you did not pay for the trousers either”, the confused merchant said. “Of course not”, said Mullah Nasruddin. “Why should I pay for something that I did not want to buy?”.
More useful
One day Mullah Nasruddin entered his favorite teahouse and declared, “The moon is more useful than the sun”. An old man asked, “Why Mullah?” Mullah Nasruddin replied, “Because we need the light more during the night than during the day”.
Standing by his word
A friend asked Mullah Nasruddin how old he was. “Forty”, replied the Mullah. The friend said, “but you said the same thing two years ago!”. “Yes”, replied the Mullah, “I always stand by what I have said”.
Replace my donkey
“You may have lost your donkey, but you don’t have to grieve over it more than you did about the loss of your first wife”, a villager told a sad Mullah Nasruddin. “Ah”, said Mullah Nasruddin, “but if you remember, when I lost my wife, all the villagers said we will find you someone else, so far, nobody has offered to replace my donkey”.
Wet Nasruddin
Mullah Nasruddin nearly fell into a pool one day. A man whom he know was nearby, and saved him from falling in. Every time, this man met Nasruddin, he would remind him of the event and how he saved him. After several times, Nasruddin took him to the water, and jumped in. He stood with his head just above the water, and shouted, “Now I am as wet as I would have been if you had not saved me, so leave me alone!”

Some politicians are real comedians,This is their inherent
behaviour.They do not have to struggle for the power,it just comes to them like a gift from God.
I like Sheikh Rasheed from national muslim league.He is a solo F-16 pilot ,who does not care for any one like our PAF,loyal,just,honest.He was a part time tutor of Imran Khan.I love the way he narrates the comments.
I just watched the Express News.I loved the ex-President Musharraf interview.Darling a comedy program is a must watch.Mr.President though Ex but still has lot of support from strong GHQ apparently.I think G stands for Greatest Power God,H is for Hayee(Al-hayee The Living)and Q stands for Quyuum(The sustainer).He also has the prayers of his
old parents and minotities on Pakistan.
Imran Khan was born with a golden spoon in his mouth.
The only brother of 4 sisters.The only brothers usually get spoiled by their mothers in almost all cultures.
He was the Prince Charming of Pakistan,who won the Gold Medals for the team.He cares for the Public and Allah cares for him.He is not a good speaker in urdu.He got his luck from a powerful Tahir Qaadri a Canadian helper.He is currently health care from Americans.Americans have the best aggresive health treatment well known in the world.Qaadri sahib is not predictable,the only problem.
Almost all Pakistani comedians are excellent.I like Dr.Yonus Butt the only child who was not chide in his childhood by other children.He still lives alone and likes to be left alone .He is from Kushmeer.People from Kusmeer are usually vegetarians.They have a good sense of humor but they are sometimes not that brave.They do have a good sense of buisness,are successful.They say to all others this is none of your business.They also tend to spoil their only son.
I do not watch Canadian or American comedy shows.They are
late night shows,I am a morning person.I have watched all the seasons Mind Your Language in Pakistan and here.I shared them with my English Class.I Volunteered as Teacher for one semester in the Tahir Hall.Some times I do watch “Corner Gas Station” and “Little Mosque on the Prarie:
My daughters watched the cartoon programs Magic School Bus and Arthur and DW.Both are canadian Programs.I watched them for 16 years with them.

Thanks for bringing back Mullah Nasruddin, we were beginning to miss him and his crazy ways…:)

Once a Tableeghee Mulla met a simple person.Mulla scolded and scared the poor man.He said learn and say namaz before your own funeral prayer.
Next time mulla met and asked about his progress. The scary cat person said:I don’t want to die soon.!!!
Once a thief did a break in his neighbour’s house in the night.The owner of the house woke up and recognized him mohammed.when thief saw that the owner has woken up,he fled speedily.The owner shouted “This Mohammed is the thief” and “That Mohammed(PBUH) is someone else.
A sardar jee (A Sikh sahib) converted to Islam. He started offering daily prayers regulaly within the Muslim community where he was living. He became popular as a good Muslim.
One morning, a Muslim neighbor observed that the convert while coming out of the house, was offering solute to God in an old manner (Sikh manner, raising both joined hands up to the forehead).
He asked the convert about it as to why he did that.
The Convert said, “Oh that is nothing. While I was coming out of the house, I saw my old God (Parmatama?). I had a vision. I saw him and I soluted Him. I thought, I need not spoil it with him too.
Reminds me of a true incident in Ghana. One local guy used to come by the beach house, where I spent most Saturdays, and preached to me with the ‘Watchtower’ (Jehovah’s Witnesses). One day the beach was all quiet – usually the whole village would pull in a huge fishing net. I asked him why no-one was fishing today. His answer was that ‘the Gods of the Sea are angry with us’. I pointed out to him that he keeps preaching to me (some kind of) Christian stuff, surely he would not believe / trust ‘the Gods of the Sea’. His answer: ‘you know – we will know about the Christian God in the next life, but if we anger the Gods of the Sea they will punish us immediately’. (true story)
pakistan political debate is once again rolling over.I watched muzzakrat(night of comedy committee).An elect from Tharparkar(sindh) had come.He was a doctor from Sindh medical college.He told that that they are four brothers and all are doctors.He said in a very light tone that there are brands of political chairs,but there is no brand of kafan(grave clothes)He was a hindu and their family had decided to stay in Pakistan after listening to the Kaeday Azam mohd Ali Jinnah speech in 1947..He said they had no problems till 1973.He is a great social activist who spends 6% of his income every month for charity.He also sponsors a communal wedding of 100 people.He also sang two ever green songs for Imran Khan’s new wife.Ghulam Ali khan an old Pakistani,who has immigrated also sung.I heard him for the first time.It was a double edge cutting
sword program with descent manners.
I was happy over sweeping victory of AAm aadmi
(common man) party in Delhi(india).Modi had said once that muslims do footpath kind of politics.He said they make three kind of settlements.War zone,Salaam Zone and Peace zone.I first lived in Peshawar a war zone,then on Salaam street in Abu Dhabi ,a lush green broad avenue ,and then in Canada(claim to be peace Makers)Once our beloved 4th Khalifa ra said:”I want the whole world to become Canada and Canada to become the whole world.One of the participant said that they are in stone age where an ordinary citizen does not have basic life necessities.
Yesterday my husband signed a lease for his own office near Highway 7 and creditstone in Vaughan.!!!!
