My uncle is so coooool!

He calls me up sometimes and asks me a random question, and he wants me to answer it right away. -smiles-

Two nights ago, he asked me, "what's the distance from the earth to mars?" I looked online and gave him the answer. He just called me right now again, and he asks.. "so, what's the distance from the earth to pluto?" Again I looked it up, and I just told him, ya Allah how much I love my uncle! Barak Allahu Fi.

[Sometimes he says things that are unforgetable, his perspectives on things are just unique and very clever... for example, he said this a while back, and it was too good not to remember:

When a person lies, that person is proving to Allah that he or she is a liar!

He's so cool! And that's so right. ]

Well, there's a reason why he asks these questions.. like I said, he's very clever. After asking me the distance to Pluto, he asked me, "what's the distance between you and God?" ... "subHan Allah, physically I can only imagine, although I do know that Allah is closer to us than our jugular vein! subHan Allah. " ... "aha! yes!"

ya Rab, I love my uncle for the sake of Allah.
