Dear members,
This time im sharing with you an good old story, hope this gives a chuckle...for those who want to take a break.so go ahead.
Two Christians in the Desert
Two Christians were lost in the Sahara desert .
One is David, the other is Michael .
They were dying of hunger and thirst when they suddenly came upon an oasis, with what looked like an emirate of a mosque in the middle .
David said to Michael : "Look, let's pretend we are Muslims, otherwise we'll not get any food or drink.
I am going to call myself Mohammed."
Michael refused to change his name , he said :" My name is Michael , and I will not pretend to be other than but what I am . ...Michael."
The Imam of the mosque received both well and asked about their names .
David said : "My name is Mohammed ."
Michael said : "My name is Michael. "
The Imam turned to the helpers of the mosque and said :
" Please bring some food and water for Michael only ."
Then he turned to the other and said :
" Well Mohammed, Ramzan Mubarak!!!!
Be yourself always, no matter where you are, The guy who thougth like "Be a Roman when ur in Rome", didnt work out...and had to stay without food.
Don't be smart enough just you want to be smart, think before you say anything.

Hi
Many people think smartness alone help survive, but never think about the long lasting things like truth and honesty which will save their butts... For them both of these are extinct in the context just like dinosaurs...
And thank you for the awesome story...

what this has to do with HR, although it is kind of funny, but bad gesture. anyone knows that when you have to drink or eat you do that and do not harm yourself that what Al-Eslam say, fasting is a worship not to kill your self. So the story is bad in the way it try to give a bad picture about Al-Eslam, it showed hate which is no surprise. Ignorance for sure.

Glad I 'opened-the-post' - today - although a day-after-Muslims broke their Ramzan Fast ! A very PERTINENT LESSON indeed !!
