    I think u guys are missing the point or didn’t read the article. According to those emails Sultan bin Sulayem of UAE SENT it to him like… for fun. They are going to be pissed at the Sultan, I would assume. Trying to think of an equivalent… I guess it would be like if the Pope sent the shroud of turin to jeffrey epstein to try on for a weekend and then send back. catholics wouldn’t be mad at jeffrey epstein, he’s dead and was jewish… they’re gonna be mad at that pope.

      I think a lot of people also missed that this wasn’t a regular prayer cloth that any Muslim would have in their home, this was from the Kaaba specifically. Millions of people travel from across the globe every year to pray here—this specific “rug” is essentially a piece of history and should have never been given away, especially to a zionist

        The cloth of the Kaaba is changed from time to time. They then cut it into pieces and send around to friends of the Saudi royal family.

      There’s a minor detail that would make the shroud of Turin being less objectionable…

      Namely that it’s a fake.

      It was known as a fake from the get go, and that’s why it was never properly cared for as a relic. And every modern test demonstrates that it is a fake.

          I mean it works.

          Lots of Christians would lose their shit over that.

          Probably the exact same ones being like “what’s the big deal here”, in point of fact

        I would still laugh if it came out that Jeffrey wiped his ass with it.

        Just for the people that do believe it’s real. I love watching them squirm. I like seeing them mad in general, except for what they get up to when they get mad.

    Oh no, he stood on some cloth. This will really tarnish his otherwise spotless record.

    There’s plenty of stuff to hate the dead guy for but this isn’t it.

    What doesn’t outrage muslims? It’s fine you believe what you believe, but you can’t expect everyone else on the planet to have the same beliefs as you. If you do, you’re the problem here. Don’t like when someone stands on a fucking rug, don’t stand on the fucking rug yourself. Don’t like when someone else eats pork, don’t eat pork yourself. Why is this such a hard concept for religious people in general? Keep your religion to your fucking self please.

    Also, Epstein is a piece of shit, of course. But not for standing on a fucking rug.

      Kiswa is not sacred, its just a cloth that covers ka’aba. There is no religious significance of it. People are enraged just like anyone, who is part of a fanbase saw some memorablia “destroyed” yk?

      Like star trek fans would be mad if the author of franchise sent some memorabilia to epstein and he was just it as rug.

        Maybe not, but I can tell them to stfu and laugh at their broken feels. But I’d do that for Christianity too, as they’re probably the worst 2 religions on the planet by far in terms of how much suffering they’ve caused.

        I love it when they suffer something that really isn’t bad in the scheme of things but only because it’s bad by their rules.

    Oil shill states also had direct connections with Epstein?

    I think I ran out of shocked jokes to put in these type comments…
