T.G.I.F.: Thank God it's Friday. 抄三例笑话，from Ayatollah's book of Etiquette.

120. The sweat of a camel that eats unclean substances is unclean.

125. When a clean object touches an unclean object and one or both are wet enough to convey that wetness to the other, then the clean object becomes unclean. But if the wetness if not enough to reach the other, the clean object does not become unclean.

126. If a host, while eating, realizes that the food is unclean, he must inform his guests. But if one of the guests realizes this, it is not necessary to inform the others, unless his relations with the others are such that as a result of remaining silent he himself becomes unclean.

(Harper's Magazine/summer 2000, special anniversary collector's edition. The above are from A Clarification of Questions, by ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, published in 1985 by the Westview Press.)
(I have never read the book mentioned, nor do I have the slightest knowledge of the author. bm)
