Aliya: You know that guy I was just speaking to, he is the nicest guy in the office.

Humaira: And I’ve seen him pray everytime I go to the prayer room, so he’s also a good muslim. You should consider him Aliya.

Aliya: Haha. I was going to set him up with you.

Humaira: Umm thanks but no thanks.

Aliya: Btw, you would never get married to a non-muslim right?

Humaira: Never.

Aliya: Why not?

Humaira: Because its not allowed?

Aliya: Do you know why it isn’t allowed?

Humaira: Because then my children would be non-muslim?

Aliya: And?

Humaira: I don’t know. Its reason enough for me.

Aliya: Because they’re dirty – they’re not circumcised! Trust me that’s a lot of unnecessary bacteria.

Humaira: Umm thanks. I guess.
