Why do think they promise them 40
virgins after they die?

Did they lower it? I always thought it was 72. This economy is fucking with everything.

I always thought it was 40 virgins.

Allah and the 40 Vigins

Oh, by the way, the 40 Virgins thing is a confusion with another incident that occurred where 40 Holy Virgins and St. Ammoun the Deacon were from Adrianopolis in Macedonia. Deacon Ammoun was their guide in Christian faith. They were captured by Baudos, the pagan governor, and were tortured because they would not offer sacrifices to idols. So now that is cleared up and they had nothing to do with Islam. Well maybe a little because since they were Christian, they also believed in the same God as Abraham, Jews, Christians and yes… Muslims. They just didn’t refer to God as Allah.
