Heaven Finders

A maulvi saheb dies and waits in line at the "Jannat" Gates. Just ahead of him is a guy in casual shalwar kurta. Farishta (angel) addresses this guy, "Who are you, so that I may know whether or not to admit you to Heaven?"

The guy replies, "I'm Rehmat Khan, Mini Bus driver from Karachi."

Farishtaji consults his list, smiles and says to Rehmat Khan, "Enter into the Kingdom."

So Pakistani driver enters Heaven and the maulvi saheb is next in line. He stands erect. Without being asked, he proclaims, "I am Maulana Aansari of Jama Masjid in Chuk 55 of Punjab for the last 43 years."

Farishtaji consults his list and says, "I am sorry, you are on waiting list. You have to pass some tests before you get entry to the Kingdom of Heaven."

Maulvi Saheb says, "Just a minute. That man was a Mini Bus driver, and you issued him instant entry. But I have to go through more tests. How can this be?"

Farishtaji says,"Up here, we go by results. While you preached, people slept; while he drove, people prayed.
