What is Most Valuable?

This one came from my ustaz:


A Mufti sat next to a Reverend on a flight. The Reverend asked the Mufti, "What is your occupation?"

Mufti: "I'm into big business."

Reverend: "But what business exactly?"

Mufti: "I deal with God."

Reverend: "Ah, so you're a Muslim religious leader. I have one problem with you Muslims: you oppress your women."

Mufti: "How do we oppress women?"

Reverend: "You make your women cover up completely and you keep them in the homes."

Mufti: "Ah. I have a problem with you people: you oppress MONEY."

Reverend: "What? How can one oppress money?"

Mufti: "You keep your money hidden away, in wallets, banks and safes... You keep it covered up. Why don't you display it in public if it's a beautiful thing?"

Reverend: "It will get stolen, obviously."

Mufti: "You keep your money hidden because it is so valuable. We value the true worth of women far, far more. Therefore, these precious jewels are not on display to one and all. They are kept in honor and dignity."
