وجاء رجل إلى أبي حنيفة فقال له: “إذا نزعتُ ثيابي ودخلتُ النهرَ أغتسل، فإلى القبلة أتوجَّه، أم إلى غيرها؟ فقال له: “الأفضل أن يكون وجهك إلى جهة ثيابك؛ لئلا تُسْرَق"؛ (المراح في المزاح: ص 43).

In an annual congregation a scholar told a story: An eagle and a dove were sitting on a branch of tree and a hunter came. Eagle said to dove: You are halal, I am haram, so he will kill you. The hunter killed the eagle. The dove said: These days people do not care about haram and halal, they care about mota mal ( an Urdu word for fat meat ).

Ishmael Abraham Islam had this humour even before I was born 

Ishmael Abraham I like intelligent and ethical humour and dislike vulgar humour. But quality reduces quantity. I partly like English-speaking Pakistani-American comedian Kumail Nanjiani and Urdu-speaking Pakistani comedian Azizi.
