A Bedouin once joined the Imam for Faajr Salat. He had an appointment after the prayer but the Imam decided to recite Surah Baqarah. As a result of the length of this Surah, the Bedouin was delayed and missed his appointment. The next day he arrived early and joined the Imam again, who this time began to recite Surah Feel (the Elephant). Completely angry, the Bedouin broke his prayer and left the mosque, shouting“Yesterday you read the Cow and finished the Cow and today you are reciting the Elephant, you will probably finish at midnight”.

I don't get it...?
Lol..
Surah Al Baqarah is the longest Surah in the Qur'an...
Surah Al Fil...is a short surah ... its called the chapter of the elephant...
Said bedouin assumed that the Chapter on the elephant...would be longer than the chapter of the cow since an elephant is larger than a cow...
Yeah...VEDDI VEDDI Confusing if you're not familiar with the names of the chapters in the holy Qur'an...interesting joke Mujji...
