Ex-MNA and fake degree holder Aamer Liaquat Hussain has taken even his own jahalat to new heights when during his ‘Aalim On Line’ show on Geo TV today (January 29, 2010) he revealed the real reasons behind the poor performance of Pakistan’s  cricket team!
According to GEO TV’s resident Jahil Alim the Pakistan team had started to perform poorly because its players are now wearing cricket shoes with green colored soles!
Yes, you heard it right. Its all in the shoes. Or, actually, in the soles!
Hold your astonishment, folks, just for a bit.
As the Jahil Alim explains, green is the  colour of Pakistan and of Islam and this color being rubbed on the ground is a derogatory act. Hence the divine retribution on the Pakistan cricket team!
It is difficult to believe that some one who professes to be a “modern religious scholar,” in this time and age would be allowed to deliver such superstitious sermons on a leading TV channel. One wonders how Geo TV can tolerate “aalims†of such questionable credentials as they further distract and confuse an already uneducated nation with yet more ignorance.
Importantly, should the TV channels not be concerned that such incorrect, misleading and damaging information is being propagated by them and in their name? Should the channel itself not be held accountable for such jahalat?
Good one from the modern religious scholar with a little bit of superstitious touch. There was an article in Dawn the other day that Zardari has been sacrificing a black goat everyday since he became president to keep evil things at bay. I wonder if it is also suggested from this Alim.
Anyways, where does it say that green is the color of Islam; or it is just assumed that it is.
thats stupid!
a video link would have been nice..
Jahils like him, beside politician, feudals and our army, is the main force, that keeps our people in the dark ages.
And they do it because they profit a lot on it.
And the profit is to rule (exploit) the masses according to their own wish.
Scary indeed.
Thank you Mr. Jahil Aalim (love that term)… now I know that I must never walk on grass. After all, walking on green grass tramples the color of Pakistan and Islam!
How about the poor grounds themselves .. they’ve got green color too … scary ;-)
