The Heavenly Room

Written story
A preacher at the mosque told the congregation that whoever sleeps with their wife on Thursday night gets a special room built for them in Heaven. Mulla’s wife heard the sermon, got excited, and demanded they earn their heavenly room. After they finished, she said, "Okay, that room is yours. Now let's do it again so I can get my own room." Mulla, exhausted, replied, "Are you kidding me? Even in Heaven we have to live in the same house?"
