Handy cufflinks



While on the subject of handlebar moustaches, Lord Bassington-Bassington's better three-quarters, Lady Mju, brought these cufflinks to His Lordship's attention. And they are rather iresistible, aren't they? If not divine?

  1. Yes, they are, aren't they? Tatty Devine also makes moustache rings for ladies, I'm told.

  2. Is that to be considered as a fatwa, my dear Mullah?

  3. I would say so; while it's rather unislamic to be vain, looking respectable is condoned if not expected. And I believe you need these to look respectable.

  4. Does not Sura 7:31 say "O Children of Adam! wear your beautiful apparel at every time and place of prayer: eat and drink: But waste not by excess, for Allah loveth not the wasters?"

    This is the best I could find at the moment, if I'd been at home I could have looked in my treasured Muhammad Asad translation.

  6. Exactly, summed up with vanity is a no-no, but keep looking good, boy!

    Be a good dog and order your cufflinks online, now, and I'll get you a biscuit!

  7. I will put my secretary on it promptly. Perhaps my better three-quarters deserves a moustache ring, too.
