I just happened to see this article on the front page of The Gulf Times, where it was spread out on the table in the lobby, as I was leaving Ramada pool this morning and it made me raise an eyebrow (or two), so for the sake of nothing better to do I raked it up off the internet.

Actually, if you read the article through you will see this Grand Mufti Abdul Aziz Al Shaikh bloke isn't exactly King Abdullah's favourite cleric ! I'm sure King A loves birthday parties like we all do.

Hey diamond! Yes - I love your wicked sense of humour. Abu she is one, regular Muslima dudette! :D
