My one regret is not being able to upvote this multiple times

If he keeps skating that way he's gonna make a lot of Prophet

[–]urstupid69 -1 points0 points ago

They should just show a father sending her daughter to school. LOL

[–]RockFerrit 17 points18 points ago

Islawesome

[–]Wu1v3rine 11 points12 points ago

[–]rubber_duckyy 17 points18 points ago

I find it ironic that the script at the bottom is actually in a Hindi like font, not an Arabic one.

[–]khusromir 7 points8 points ago

Is it ironic though? Honest question, I can't see the irony, don't take my question as an insult or anything.

[–]rubber_duckyy 1 point2 points ago

I don't know what the intentions of the person who made the picture were. But it seems like they wanted to poke fun at Islam, however they don't even know the font they are using? Sorry I guess I used ironic for lack of a better word. Appreciate your honesty.

[–]tontyismynameyeh 10 points11 points ago

It's not trying to poke fun at Islam whatsoever.

[–]413x820 -3 points-2 points ago

Irony must include an opposite reaction from what is expected, not a similarity.

[–]pyrojackelope 1 point2 points ago

Exactly this. It's usually difficult to tell someone that they have no clue what irony is without sounding like an asshole though.

[–]xteve 0 points1 point ago

It would be ironic if the image were meant as a parody of Islam and did not use a modified version of Arabic text, but a version of Hindi text instead. The assertion that the use of non-Arabic text is not ironic seems to be based upon the assumption that the cartoon is merely a skate joke. Maybe that's true -- but it seems to me that it's a matter of opinion.

[–]rubber_duckyy -4 points-3 points ago

What is expected? Arabic text... is it there? No

[–]413x820 -1 points0 points ago

No, it's not, but neither is an opposite expectation. Hindi is similar. It's just coincidental, similar and incorrect, not ironic. Don't shoot the messenger. Just trying to help. It would be ironic if the text said something like "World Peace" or "I love Jesus".

[–]rubber_duckyy 2 points3 points ago

Not shooting you, or the messenger. But Hindi is not similar to Arabic. I speak Urdu, very similar to Hindi... I understand no Arabic.

[–]dubdubdubdot 0 points1 point ago

You understand dunya and kursi, those are Arabic.

[–]413x820 0 points1 point ago

Ok, you certainly know more than I do about these languages. Similar may not have been the best word. How about just "not opposite"?

Urdu? I've never even heard of that before. Wikipedia told me that it's a very well known language spoken by many millions. I probably should have heard of it before ;)

I always thought all of India spoke Hindi. TIL. Cool.

[–]grammatiker 1 point2 points ago

Urdu is very similar to Hindi and is written in a modified version of the Perso-Arabic script. Hindi, Urdu and Persian are all Indo-European languages (Indo-Aryan subfamily within Indo-European).

Hindi uses the Devanagari script which developed within India. Arabic, Persian and Urdu all use variants of the same script (for comparison: the various Slavic and non-Slavic languages that use variations of Cyrillic).

[–]koalasRkillers 12 points13 points ago

This is really really old... I actually have it saved on my computer somewhere.

[–]I_REMOVE_COCKS 14 points15 points ago

Is it only classified as old once it is saved on your computer?

[–]koalasRkillers 4 points5 points ago

Yeah, that was the only point i was trying to make, just like something isn't hot until its on fire

[–]SirGal-I-had 6 points7 points ago

I saw this at Warped Tour....in 2002.

[–]krawm 3 points4 points ago

anyone who can do tricks in that outfit is radical.

[–]KingSexy 1 point2 points ago

I thought this was a Samurai Jack picture for the longest time...

[–]mphatik 1 point2 points ago

Where do I order one! I love this.

[–]Dirge37 0 points1 point ago

A skateboard or a Muslim? Cause both are made in the east

[–]_thankyousir_ 1 point2 points ago

[–]Stalemate9 1 point2 points ago

Downvoted for being older than the internet itself.

[–]shpider 3 points4 points ago

It's funny... Until someone says "It's the Prophet Muhammad on a skateboard"...

Edit: Spelling

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points ago

Well yes, because it'd offend Muslims.

[–]Dmuff 1 point2 points ago

I need a shirt like this!

[–]Absenteeist -1 points0 points ago

Radical Arabian would be more accurate. Wearing a thwab is common on the Arabian peninsula and around; less so in other Islamic countries.

EDIT: Apparently, that information wasn't funny enough.

[–]Wimc 0 points1 point ago

OH FUCK NO!

Total repost but god damn it that's funny!

Where can I get this on a shirt?!

[–]SirCannonFodder 0 points1 point ago

[–]beefsupreme123 0 points1 point ago

This pic is as old as Islam itself.

[–]trampus1 0 points1 point ago

Just a basic handplant and FS grab, barely worth any points. I'll be impressed when he can laser flip.

[–]Umpalumpa47 0 points1 point ago

"Don't put the freaking punchline in the freaking title!"

[–]Jtsunami 0 points1 point ago

spelled in hindi font.

[–]Mechanikal -1 points0 points ago

That is hilarious. Nice find.

Every single redditor: "You laugh at joke? You get downvote!!"

[–]MrIste 11 points12 points ago

He gets downvoted because "LOL!" adds nothing to the comments and is completely unnecessary.
