A Silencing Answer

In Keraana (a town In India) a lawyer once asked me: “Why is Namaaz (salaat) five times a day Fardh?” I replied, “Why has your nose been created on your face?”

He replied: “It would have appeared ugly if it was on my neck.”

I said: “Never! If everyone’s nose was at the back of the neck, it would not seem unsightly.”

He remained speechless.
