Sardar in Arabia‏

[INDIA FRIENDS]

A Sardar, a German and a Pakistani got arrested consuming alcohol
which is a severe offense in Saudi Arabia , so for the terrible crime
they
are all sentenced 20 lashes each of the whip.

As they were preparing for their punishment, the Sheik announced:
"It's my first wife's birthday today, and she has asked me to allow
each
of you one wish before your whipping."

The German was first in line; he thought for a while and then said:
"Please tie a pillow to my back."

This was done, but the pillow only lasted 10 lashes & the German had
to be
carried away bleeding and crying with pain.

The Pakistani was next up. After watching the German in horror he
said
smugly: "Please fix two pillows to my back."

But even two pillows could only take 15 lashes & the Pakistani was
also led
away whimpering loudly.

The Sardar was the last one up, but before he could say anything, the
Sheikh
turned to him and said:

"You are from a most beautiful part of the world and your culture is
one
of the finest in the world. For this, you may have two wishes!"

"Thank you, your Most Royal and Merciful highness," Sardar replied.

"In recognition of your kindness, my first wish is that you give me
not
20, but 100 lashes."

"Not only are you an honorable, handsome and powerful man, you are
also
very brave." The Sheik said with an admiring look on his face.

"If 100 lashes is what you desire, then so be it." And what is your
second wish?" the Sheik asked.

Sardar smiled and said, " Tie the Pakistani to my back " !!!
