Imagine how big a target this “smart” phone will be for hackers. Somebody will likely, sooner or later, hack the phone to get Muslims pointing in the wrong direction when praying or when doing their 1s and 2s. There will be another hack to change many passages on their on-board Koran to quotes from the real bible.

Cool, the CIA and Mossad can narrow the phones they need to monitor - and trigger.

An Indian company has launched an 'Islamic smart phone',That ain't nothing, the muslims invented the first condoms out of goat gut, but the Chinese improved them years later by removing the gut from the goat.

It does include a “Virtual Left Hand” app that muslims can use to simulate wiping of their nether regions.

Does it have a Mecca compass built inside?
Will it point me to the closest seller of Mecca Cola?

Does it wipe one’s a$$ left-handed or right-handed?
To: dynachrome
Does it have a built-in shaver so you can do your ritual body shave before going out to do a jihad?

Some Mossad agents need to infiltrate this factory. Re-equip the phones. Then distribute as normal.
On a special signal, all the phones activate their new programming. The next time they get an incoming call, the phone starts to play the first five measures of “Hatikva”, and then activate the new feature they didn’t mention in the sales brochure...the 3 or 4 ounces of SEMTEX embedded in every phone.
BOOM!
Talk about the next ‘killer app’.

Get the phone to point them to a hog confinement farm in the US Mid West.

You mean 1401 years off? 2011 (now)-610 (when Muhammad got his revelation) = 1401.

When using this new phone, if the user can’t hejira what the caller is saying, he’ll wish he hadith finger on the volume control.
