Putting the fat back into fatwa



















It seems that some pieces of meat that look like they might possibly have the name of Allah in them (if you squint a bit, in a certain light) are attracting flocks of gullible idiots to a restaurant in Nigeria. The meat was being served up to diners when the mysterious markings were noticed.

So, it's ok for Allah to appear on pieces of meat, but not on tasty, tasty ice cream cones. Boy, talk about fussy.
















Apparently, the restaurant owner boiled and then fried the meat. For which he must surely be considered an infidel.

He is quoted as saying:
"When the writings were discovered there were some Islamic scholars who come and eat here and they all commented that it was a sign to show that Islam is the only true religion for mankind."
Of course. What other way would Allah communicate this important information?

Although, from the look of that piece of meat, I'd say it was a sign to eat at some other restaurant.
