The maulvis and swine

As we all know, the mullahs in India have become very hip and happening; they talk about voting, democracy and even liberals like Ms. Sham are praising them for not burying Pakistani terrorists and walking all the way with other liberals in peace marches.

I have already mentioned the fatwa for elections in response to queries from Muslims.

Here are a few queries I too have about how Muslims must react to the swine flu and other porcine issues:

  • Does contracting the swine flu make a person less of a Muslim?
  • If someone refers to a Muslim house that is not neat as a 'pig sty', can the owner forgive the person or must s/he attempt to cleanse that person’s mouth?
  • Does listening to film dialogues with terms like “sooar ki aulad” (offspring of swine) make one haraam?
  • What about phrases like “eat like a pig”, “ride piggy-back”…are they legitimate and acceptable?
  • Can Muslim children put their small change in piggy banks? If yes, does the same rule apply also to Eidi (monetary gift on Eid)?

These are questions of importance and it would be nice if some maulvi took time off and explained. I am dying to get involved in this fatwa business and I don’t care if I have to be called a swine for it.

  3. Interesting but my dad's driver qadeer bhai first enquired about swine flu and then spent 10 mins convincing me that pork has all diseases like AIDS ....Sahib apne logon ke liye Bakra hee theek hai ......I convinced him that any "gora" flu will not survive in india ...it will get tired spreading itself ...given our size or will get fried in some heeng , garam masala or biryani dum...it will stay away...he was reasonably convinced :)...at least for time being

    They won;t reply, but be sure they will find answers; there is always something written somewhere which they can twist out of shape.

    I think we are getting closer to a fatwa now...you convinced Qadeer bhai that pigs are nice? Tauba, meri tauba!
