It's a miracle!

This video is a couple years old, but I just discovered it, and frankly, had I known this sort of thing was out there I’d have converted to Islam a long time ago.  No, really: I’m convinced.  I know a miracle when I see one, and you can clearly see—I mean, hear—the lion say “Allah” about a zillion times.

And the lion says it with conviction, as might be expected from the king of the forest, who in this case is a detainee at the zoo in Baku.  When this particular lion says “Allah,” Allah listens, for he (Allah, not the lion) is all-knowing, most compassionate, and he has excellent hearing.

If you don’t convert after witnessing an awesome miracle like this, you are permitted to count yourself permanently as a hopeless infidel.  The brief ritual before-prayer ablution performed by the Muslim lion (it hails from Iran, it turns out) is a definite clincher.  After all, when has anyone ever seen an animal lick its private parts?  It’s positively eerie.

I certainly hope His Highness was facing Mecca.

Maybe this is one of the lions of jihad?

Anyway, here is another miracle“miracle.” And another.

Yes, God, I pegged you as a hopeless infidel.

Haid October 20, 2008 at 8:27 am

Lions of jihad. LOL. Thanks for the look at a couple other miracles. These guys are truly whacked out.

Did you know, Haider, that lion in iraqi arabic is Haider? Well, now you do. Heh. But I also noticed that the bars of his cage, when read a certain way looked like it spelled Allah, too, since most of the arabic script is uppity downity, like bars in a cage would be. Well, AOW, I hear MOOO coming from the cow. Or he could be saying…PLEASE DON”T CUT MY ROCKY MOUNTAIN OYSTERS OFF!!!! They are NOT a delicacy. Not even a tasty one, at that!

That was good. Now find video of a dog or a pig that says “Allah!” and post that online. Now that would affirm my faith that God has a sense of humor, and my certainty that the jihadis don’t.

BTW, netnanny has not identified Google videos as a source of malign influence, so I saw it just fine.

Hmm, Scherzo. Didn’t know that. The grrrrrreat! Haid Dasalami is the king of the forest. Shoulda known.

Didn’t notice the thing with the bars. It’s just more validation of the miracle.

As if any is required.

Glad you enjoyed it, Darryl, and especially glad that we were able to run the old end-around on nanny.

They just have no idea how many video-sharing sites are out there.

When we find the pig, everyone converts.

This kind of breaks my heart. He is probably frustrated and I bet underfed, and sick of people hanging around and taunting him constanty to “praise Allah”. Poor noble beast.

How high are the walls for the enclosures in Baku, anyway?

Haid October 25, 2008 at 9:39 pm

Hi, Jan. Thanks for stopping by.

It breaks my heart, too. I mean, since the lion is a Muslim that invokes Allah and all, I think they should just release the beast. They believe in miracles, don’t they?

As for the height of the walls, however minimally secure they’re too high for my taste.

He wouldn’t be underfed for long if it were up to me. ;)

Best regards,

HAID

That was the funniest thing! Thanks Haid.

Thanks for stopping by my site. Been real busy, but may try and post again when I get time.

Haid October 29, 2008 at 12:48 pm

Glad you liked it, Silly. It’s good to hear from you again.

Don’t be a stranger, OK?

Best regards,

HAID
