FUNNY ISN'T IT?

Funny How a $20 bill looks so big when you take it to the mosque, but so small when you take it to the market.


*Funny how long it takes to do Zikr (remember Allah) for an hour, but how quickly a team plays 60 minutes of basketball.

*Funny how long a couple of hours spent at the mosque are, but how short they are when watching a movie.

*Funny how we can't think of anything to say when we pray, but don't have difficulty thinking of things to talk about to a friend.

*Funny how we get thrilled when a baseball game goes into extra innings, but we complain when a "Tarawih" during a Ramadhan is longer than the regular time.

*Funny how hard it is to read a chapter of the Holy Quran, but how easy it is to read 100 pages of a best selling novel.

*Funny how people want to get a front seat at any game or concert, but scramble to get a back row at a mosque so they can scramble out fast.

*Funny how we need 2 or 3 weeks advance notice to fit a mosque event into our schedule, but can adjust our schedule for other events at the last moment.

*Funny how hard it is for people learn a simple preaching well enough to others, but how simple it is for the same people to understand and repeat gossip.

*Funny how we believe what the newspapers says, but question what the Quran says.

*Funny how everyone wants to go to heaven provided they do not have to believe, or to think, or to say, or do anything.

*Funny how you can send a thousand 'jokes' through e-mail and they spread like wildfire, but when you start sending messages regarding Allah, people think twice about sharing.
