Mom comes to visit her son Kumar for dinner...who lives with a girl roommate Sunita. During the course of the meal, his mother couldn't help but notice how pretty Kumar's, roommate was. She had long been suspicious of a relationship between the two, and this had only made her more curious. Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she started to wonder if there was more between Kumar and his roommate than met the eye.
Reading his mom's thoughts, Kumar volunteered, "I know what you must be
thinking, but I assure you, Sunita and I are just roommates."
About a week later, Sunita came to Kumar saying,
"Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the silver chutney jar. You don't suppose she took it, do you?"
"Well, I doubt it, but I'll email her, just to be
sure." So he sat down andwrote : Dear Mother, I'm not saying that you 'did' take the chutney jar from my house, I'm not saying that you 'did not' take the chutne jar.
But the fact remains that it has been missing ever since you were here for dinner.
Love,
Kumar
Several days later, Kumar received an email from his Mother which read:
Dear Son,
I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with Sunita, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with Sunita. But the fact remains that if she was sleeping in her OWN bed, she would have found the chutney jar by now.
Love,
Mom.
Lesson of the day .....
Don't Lie to Your Mother...
I think the second-to-last paragraph is what people find to be offensive... :confused:
asalam o alikum warahmatulahi wabarakatuh..
yeh i agree.. its kinda obvious cz the idea of 'sleepin' with someone yo na maried 2 iz lyk somethin muslims dont like discussin.. cz it causes a sense of uneasiness. esp. wen all the brothers and sisters are readin it, cz naturally wen a person does read it they feel abit embarassed. like to make it more obvious lets say u showed the story to your mom or dad, you wouldn't. cz deep down inside u know its embarrasin and you'd probably get a smak fo it lol.
Well no you see, I told my parents the joke, and they both laughed...
Are you telling me we are all swayed by something like that? Well shock horror, do you want to know something worse, some Muslims sleep around before they get married too...
We are not ones to expose the sins of others, this joke is inappropriate, for a couple of reasons
1. its in the GENRAL section
2. it shows that we have no haya left
3. we think that such a sin is a joke we dont even feel ashamed or some sort of guilt for what is happening
4. its in NO WAY halal.
5. obviously its the life style of the "west" and its accepted, and now it is casually accepted on an Islamic Forum as a joke and a story with a "moral" we know FULL well Islam does not encourage the intermixing of men and women
now you tell me you dont understand whats soo " SHOCKING" about it. When we take sins such as these to be for our mere enjoyment. When we look at ourselves and see nothing wrong with such jokes its time to take an Iman check. We are all humans we will sin, but the best of the sinners are those who repent. we are told in the Quran, to remind each other because reminders benefit the believers. So this is just a simple reminder. starting with myself Inshallah.
OK, firstly, maybe I did put it in the wrong section, but you make that out to be a crime, its called an accident...
Secondly, no it doesnt mean we have no haya left....
Thirdly, if you laughed at the sin, you evidently didnt get the joke...
The fact that two non muslims that live together has scared you suddenly, like I said, people do alot worse....
Lastly, the moral of the story was intermixing? You rellay did NOT get the joke did you, or the moral for that matter, even though, it was the last thing I said....
But fine, if it has annoyed people, then im sincerely repentant, and apologise...
Lesson of the day .....
Don't Lie to Your Mother...
..... thats the lesson? u may have misunderstood me, i dont care what these non muslims do, but when we sit and talk about it thats when it worries me, anyway, as u like.
I think we all need to loosen up. The moral of the story is do not lie to your mother, and do not commit sins which will lead you to lie. What's un-Islamic about that, seriously?
Now, come on, stop all this hoo-ha. There are really much worse things to despair about than jokes.
umm...yeah *looks at the size of this thread* this story was meant to show that people can't hide anything from their mothers and so its not a good idea to lie to them. There is no need to get into all those other issues. Its a joke, its supposed to be funny. period.

jee, I wonder if my parents would find that funny...

after looking at the posts...I think what AA is tryna say iz...yall could use better example....its not like u guys don have hayah but its inappropriate to have jokes like these at Islamic forums.
I know some muslims 'sleep' around before marraige, but we are not here to judge em.
so anyways, it was a good joke i admit...but lets tryna keep this kinda jokes as personal...cuz some people are strict in these matters. Haya min nafs.
nothing against anyone.
