Good advice from most folks: forgive him his trangression and move on.

I'm amused though...to consider that here in Qatar you're actually allowed to "file a complaint" against someone for an insult.
So they'll fine you, lash you, or throw you in jail for saying an unflattering remark about Ramadan, but they won't do a damn thing to the local who totals your car and sends you to the hospital in a hit-and-run accident.

Justice Gulf-style! LOL!
