reminds me of a joke.

there was this christian, jew, muslim and buddhists stuck in the desert.

The christian, Jew and Muslim each decided to pray for their god to save them. The buddhists decided to find away out.

The buddhists eventually found his way to safety weeks later and brought a rescue crew back to them. They were dead. Instead of helping themselves and solving their problems they waited and prayed.

Oh well...

I don't know if this is a hadith or not but my dad would always say "God helps those who helps themselves". God believing people don't sit on their butts and pray without trying to solve the problems with the energy and mind given to them by God. They pray to God to thank Him and to pray to Him to make it easier for Him to solve the problems.

I don't think it is your atheist friends that seem to misunderstand. :D

I must be missing the humor in the first joke, because I don't find it funny at all..
 
An Elderly Lady

An elderly lady was well-known for her Iman and for her confidence in talking about it.
She would stand in front of her house and say Alhamdulilah "Allah be praised" to all those who passed by.
Next door to her lived an atheist who would get so angry at her proclamations he would shout, "There ain't no Lord!!"
Hard times came upon the elderly lady, and she prayed for Allah to send her some assistance.
She would pray out loud in her night prayer" Oh Allah! I need food!! I am having a hard time, please Lord, PLEASE LORD, SEND ME SOME GROCERIES!!"
The atheist happened to hear her as she was praying, and decided to play a prank on her.
The next morning the lady went out on her porch and noted a large bag of groceries and shouted, "Alhamdulilah, Allah be praised!."
The neighbor jumped from behind a bush and said, "Aha! I told you there was no Lord. I bought those groceries, God didn't."
The lady started jumping up and down and clapping her hands and said, "ALHAMDULILAH WA SHUKRILLAH”.
"He not only sent me groceries, but he made the devil pay for them!"

;D
