A Jew, a Muslim, and a lawyer are driving on a rural road.

The car breaks down, leaving them stranded with no signal, so they leave the car and find a farmhouse. They say to the man who answers the door, “Our car won’t work and we need shelter for the night. Can you provide it?” The farmer replies, “Of course. But there’s only enough room in the house for two of you. The other will have to sleep in the barn.” The group decides to draw straws to see who will sleep in the barn. The Jew draws the short one and heads out. A few minutes later there’s a knock at the door. The farmer opens it and the Jew is standing there. “I’m sorry sir, but I can’t sleep in that barn. There’s a pig in there. In my religion, pigs are considered unclean.” Seeing the problem, the Muslim and the lawyer draw straws. The Muslim draws the short one and goes out to the barn, planning to ignore the pig. A few minutes later there’s a knock at the door. The Muslim is standing there. “I’m sorry sir, but I can’t sleep in the barn. There’s a dog in there, and in my religion dogs are considered unclean.” Feeling left with no choice, the lawyer agrees to go out to the barn. A few minutes later there’s a knock at the door. The dog and the pig are standing there.
