Saudi Family Takes Evil Genie to Sharia Court

[falcon]

The Saudis and the east African Muslims take their djinns very seriously. It is kind of different to be driving across the desert and have a Saudi point at a hill or outcropping and tell you that a bad djinn lives there.

Maybe lawyers in the US will take a clue from this Saudi case.

MADINAH: A Shariah court in the town of Mahd Al-Dahab is taking up an important question: Can genies be summoned . . . to appear before a judge? According to Wednesday’s Al-Watan newspaper, a family has filed a lawsuit against an unnamed genie for stealing mobile phones, sending threatening voice mesages through mobile phones imploring the family to move away and pelting family members with stones when they go out at night.

The family has been living in the same house for 15 years, but claims that it only recently began to feel the presence of the genie over the past two years. “We have to look into this case and verify its truthfulness despite the difficulty of its consideration,” said Sheikh Amr Al-Salmi, the head of the local court. If he thinks it’s going to be difficult to verify these charges, just wait until the judge orders the genie to pay compensation.

Over 80% of ***anese believe that "spirit foxes" are the source of nearly all bad luck, and they're a lot higher up the intelligence quotient tree than most Saudis will ever be. Food for thought.
