The Blasphemist


Conversation while trying to put wide-awake Solom to bed after a long, long day.


Me: Okay betay, good night.

Solom: MAMA?

Me: Yes?

S: Solom's go OUT.

Me: Solom will do nothing of the sort. Solom will close his eyes and think of Allah and then Solom will Go. To. SLEEP.  GOOD NIGHT.

S: MAMA!!!

Me: WHAT?

S (holding three fingers out): How many Allahs I have?

  4. @Aneela, main bequsoor hoon huzoor e wala. Qasam se. Although I can't wait to start corrupting the minds of tiny tots.

    School for Scoundrels anyone?

    And I totally get your kid, Aaf. Ummah is sleeping and how many Allahs do people have.

    That kid is a genius.
