Quote of the Day

Aussie Dave

“When his hands were around my neck, he told me to recite the shahada because, he said, I was about to die. He took his hands off my throat long enough for me to say, ‘There is no god but Allah and Muhammad is His prophet’ three times, then I surrendered my soul to Allah. Muhammad then went on to choke and beat me some more until I lost consciousness.”

- Saudia Arabian television personality Rania Al-Baz discussing how her husband almost killed her because she answered the telephone (hat tip: Hatshepsut).
