Wahabis will not like this: After Thomas Friedman nominating him for the Nobel Prize, Jamal Khashggi is nominating Ayatollah Sayyid Ali Sistani for King Faisal Prize for serving Islam, the most prestigious prize of its kind.

  1. Hey, too bad the article was in Arabic, but I am sure the nomination of Sistani will rouse some feathers here, since the Ayatollahs think and interpret Islam different from the Wahabbis here. Should be interesting to see what the result is!

    Don’t you just love Al-Watan?

    psst, I hear Wahabi’s call it:

    “Al-Wathan” (or so my father claims)hehe..

  4. assalam-u-alaikum,

    ana ma’arif arabee. shoya shoya. tatakullum ingleezi? inta fayn wayn? shoof ismak? hammam fayn? Kum hada? la! na’am? moya minfudlun! Ya haraam! yameen! Yisaar!

    This is the standard of my arabic (sad I know!), and although I can read the arabic language, reading newspaper articles sometimes can get tricky. I am actually learning arabic from this CD ROM on my laptop!

    Mansur
