#5 Apparently, thieves picked up the sacred relic from a glass case inside the Pakistain’s Badshahi Mosque, which was built in 1673 during the Moghul period...

#11 Oh, what to the Musulmen's nose
Is as sweet as the smell from those toes?
Lo, the odor of socks
As they worship those rocks
Is refreshing as attar of rose!

#13 How did Pakistan get them in the first place? Mohamad never made it that far east and Pakistan was never the hub of the Caliphate that I'm aware of. Did some Moguls move them east or something? Or are these just Mohammed Era slippers masquerading as the real thing.
