  4. When u got back home, tell ur people in us.. Ticket cost same for me and the local.. I m not on subsidy to illtreat.. Advice them about customer service and not to be so racist. .. Forget tell u… INDIAN HERE

    BTL I really loved the humour.. But not the 💡 ideology how one should speak or live in a country.

  11. There is no time to be wasted ..attend and laugh..
    Our life time is v limited..we are created to utilise every second of this life to come closer to Allah..
    Lessening to jokes is a temporary enjoyment but don't you know that you are spending this time at the expense of other highly valuable thing to be done..
    Prayer in time, reading quran, visiting relatives and helping sick people …etc..Think before it's too pate..

  13. Thank you. Very funny. And i can relate to what you are saying, haha. Thank you for spreading some flavor of the Middle Eastern flavor. Flavor is good, more flavors than just one

  16. Book 34, Number 6448:
    Abu Sa'id al-Khudri reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: You would tread the same path as was trodden by those before you inch by inch and step by step so much so that if they had entered into the hole of the lizard, you would follow them in this also. We said: Allah's Messenger, do you mean Jews and Christians (by your words) "those before you" ? He said: Who else (than those two religious groups) ?

  39. He himself says that the meaning of his talk is to "break stereotypes".
    It is to break down the misunderstandings and beliefs of Americans and others toward the Middle East
    and explain the actual reality.
    So it doesn't matter if it's funny or not, jokes are incidental. This and TED are liberal arts video.

    彼のこの講演の目的と意味は ”ステレオタイプの打破” だと彼自身が言ってます。
    日本人が和訳もしています。
    中東人への米国人などによる誤解や思い込みを打破して実際の現実を説明することです。
    なので面白いかどうかは問題ではありません、ついでです。

    TEDは漫才チャンネルではなく教養動画です。
