Don't Simply Change Your Name

Two Christians were lost in the Sahara desert .


One is called David, the other is called Michael .


They were dying of hunger and thirst when they suddenly came upon an oasis,
with what looked like an minaret of a mosque in the middle.


David said to Michael : "Look, let's pretend we are Muslim, otherwise
these Arabs are going to kill us. I am going to call myself Mohammed."

Michael refused to change his name, he said: " My name is Michael, and I
will not pretend to be other than but what I am . ...Michael."


The Imam of the mosque received both well and asked about their names .


David said: "My name is Mohammed ."


Michael said: "My name is Michael. "


The Imam turned to the helpers of the mosque and said: "Please bring some
food and water for Michael only."

Then he turned to the other and said : "Well Mohammed I hope you are aware
that we are still in the holy month of Ramadan."
