    Water written backwards spells retaw. If you adjust it a little it says retard. Are you gonna take being called a retard by water? Ban water today and stop the insults!

    لا مُحَمَّد لا مكة

    I’m only an Arabic beginner, but this is pretty much how you write “no mohammed, no mekka”.

    The post is a bit farfetched, one might even call it bullshit.

      You mean someone would go on the internet and just tell lies?

      Say it ain’t so.

      Also, any “proof” that is presented as an edited image is clearly disingenuous from the beginning.

    CocaCola spent billions of dollars on their logo to make it a puzzle and just to have someone solve this mystery-like logo? These posts are always bs. Feels like a post from Facebook.

    Lol, I speak Arabic as a native language, and I know damn well that you translated incorrectly.

    It’s not “لا”, it’s “لِ”, which means “for”, “to”, or “of”, as in “for/to/of Mohammed”.

    So yeah, it’s not as bad as you think.

    If you listen to princes of the universe by queen backwards it says “did you really just do that, wow you’re so gullible” and quite frankly this has made it my favourite track to listen to.

    Seems like a whole lot of work to trick Muslims into not drinking something they were drinking anyway…

    Pepsi’s ok, though. Right?

    Edit: Forgot the word not

    Yeah, I’m really sure that’s what they were thinking when they designed their logo.

    I saw this on Facebook back in the day. This was to troll brain dead people on the net, like how grandpa joe shares random memes with words meaning 666.

    I am a Sunni imam, this is fake. Coke is haram because it has lard in it.
