It was the obvious question that came to my mind after I suffered an asthma attack watching Bush getting juttiya thrown at him. Actually, what puzzles me is why I found the clip so hysterical, although it seems to get less funny the more you watch it, especially thinking about what’s going to happen to the Miskeen who threw them.
But anyway, definitely needing a good laugh, I’ve added it to my favourite funniest clips that I’ve personally come across. Vote for your best one and/or even better, show me something funnier and stick the link in the comments.
So again, here’s that unbelievable piece of “Shukran Jazeeran!” action from yesterday. Anyone making such a mistake in trying to speak Arabic deserves a slap with a sole of a shoe in my book. Credit though where it’s due cos’ Georgie moved well for an old boy although if there’s one thing in life that I’ve picked up from living in the Arab world, it’s that generally when an Arab wants to give it some and takes off his ‘iqaal or his shoes to lamp you, he will invariably miss.
Shame it wasn’t a Pak journalist. My Dad never ever missed me with his chappal…
But I don’t think it beats my all-time favourite. Yep, Mr Goma himself…
And just one more, only because I’m a Cockney at heart, because I love chicken soup, because I work in healthcare and because man-flu is the deadliest disease of our time…
And sadly that’s it. I can’t play my other funniest one because it’s Harry Redknapp at his angriest but I’m sure some of you lot out there must have some good stuff, so fire away!

Is it a laughing matter?
BAGHDAD (AP)
“He was wrestled to the ground by security officials and then hauled away, moaning as they departed the room. Later, a trail of fresh blood could be seen on the carpet, although the source was not known.”
“The brother of the Iraqi journalist who threw his shoes at US President George W Bush has said that the reporter has been beaten in custody.
Muntadar al-Zaidi has suffered a broken hand, broken ribs and internal bleeding, as well as an eye injury, his older brother, Dargham, told the BBC.”

Respected Brother in the Deen, Abu Eesa – I’ve got a few questions to ask you, not personal or anything, just Deeni ones, and I’d really value your input. Is there any other way to contact you. Shukran!

Salams all
Hmm, rather a disappointing collection to be honest. Too much music and too much swearing. I did like the girl getting walloped one on the head though!
And by the way, just in case everyone missed my little bit of sarcasm above, there is no such phrase called “shukran jazeeran” (it should be “shukran jazeelan“) and this is of course why al-Zaidi exploded with fury at that disgraceful moment of bad grammar.
Ustadh is there a way to contact you at the moment other than this blog?
As I mentioned previously on the blog, I am only available publicly during Saturday evenings at Makki Masjid and after Isha prayers when I’m in Manchester at the CMA. And yes, it is true that I am trying to get people away from instant electronic gratification via mobiles, emails and forums and push them to face-to-face meetings as is the correct way. All previous phone-numbers and email addresses are to be considered defunct. My new email is private and to be maintained as such for anyone who might have chanced across it wa jazakumullahu khayran.
Sorry for any inconvenience. Actually, no, I’m not that sorry to be honest.

shukran jazeeran… (previously was a joke.)
JazakAllah khair ustadh.
