lying

Nasruddin told his class, "Next week I plan the Khutba to be about the sin of lying. To help you understand my sermon, I want you all to read Surah 85 ayats 25 to 30." The following Friday, as he prepared to deliver his Khutba, Mullah Nasruddin asked for a show of hands. He wanted to know how many had read Surah 85 ayats 25 to 30. Every hand went up. Mullah Nasruddin smiled and said, "Surah 85 has only 22 ayats. I will now proceed with my sermon on the sin of lying."
