Sad truth.
‘Once I saw a guy on a bridge about to jump. I said, “Don’t do it!” He said, “Nobody loves me.” I said, “God loves you. Do you believe in God?”
He said, “Yes.” I said, “Are you a Muslim or a non-Muslim?” He said, “A Muslim.” I said, “Me, too! Shia or Sunni?” He said, “Sunni.” I said, “Me, too! What madhab?” He said, “Hanafi.” I said, “Me, too! Deobandi or Barelvi?” He said, “Barelvi.” I said, “Me, too! Tanzeehi or Tafkeeri?”
He said, “Tanzeehi.” I said, “Me, too! Tanzeehi Azmati or Tanzeehi Farhati?” He said, “Tanzeehi Farhati.” I said, “Me, too!”
“Tanzeehi Farhati Jamia ul Uloom Ajmer, or “Tanzeehi Farhati Jamia ul Noor Mewat?” He said, ” Tanzeehi Farhati Jamia ul Noor Mewat.”
I said, “Die, kaafir!” and I pushed him over’
LOL! But at the same time, probably this will dissipate, the same way Europeans no longer fight between Catholic vs. Protestant? Or so one hopes. It is more than a bit absurd! It is intersting in this context, though, that the Industrial Revolution did not come from kumbaya-land types!
