This comes from a rather longish essay by Baron Bodissey. I have picked out the ones I considered most funny.
Enjoy:


Sahih Muslim Book 028, Number 5612:
Buraida reported on the authority of his father that Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) said: He who played chess is like one who dyed his hand with the flesh and blood of swine.
So the game of chess which actually sharpens your brain is like dyeing hands blood, huh? Does this explain why Muslims are so outnumbered by Jews in the Noble Prizes?
