Friend chases him with knife but was later pacified with marriage offer
A Saudi man dubbed Romeo in his neighbourhood for boasting about his numerous girl friends got the shock of his life when he showed a friend the latest girl he has just known - for she was his friend’s sister.
Romeo was dining with his childhood friend, also Saudi, at a restaurant in Riyadh at night when he give him his mobile phone and asked him to see his latest girl friend. Once his friend saw the picture, he went pale.
“Without saying anything, he slapped Romeo then jumped on him and started punching him……he then went into the kitchen and brought a big knife,” the Saudi Arabic language daily Alsaudi said.
“Romeo ran away but his friend chased him…he later went home but he still chased him and wanted to stab him.”
The paper said the girl’s brother was pacified after Romeo’s father came out and promised him that his son would marry his sister.
“He also offered him to marry one of his daughters…the man suddenly calmed down and promised to think about that offer.”
While wiping his arse with a stone? Now that is romantic.
Having been in a few muslim counties, never saw no stones next to that tiled hole in the floor with the water hose nearby, figured it was LEFT HAND. Maybe rubbed around on the tiles like doggie on the carpet.
If it's that water proof sand paper they put in restrooms in Germany neither would I. Worse than the pages of the Montgomery Ward catalog my grandparents put in the outhouse back on the farm.
No, the command to use stones is in the Koran, but I think it only applies when you are not near a water source. Then, you are supposed to use the stones, and wash with water later.

I think the stones are just for when you are out in the wilderness with no water nearby. So, if there is a water hose, no need for the stones.
Sheryl Crowe insists on a one stone limit.
Good idea to not run around picking up souvenir stones in camel-jock land.
The whole thing still sounds so very 8th Century.
With a burqua on, they all look the same.
