I know because they're wearing bow ties. Shalom! I'm Larry David. You may know me because I was a writer for Saturday Night Live and Seinfeld, or you may watch my show, Curb Your Enthusiasm. Aside from being a great comedic writer, I have the rare talent of being able to identify Muslims with nothing more than a glance. Here's my secret: men who wear bow ties are Muslims. You may think that members of the Nation of Islam are the only Muslims that wear bow ties, but they aren't. I have found that almost anyone who wears a bow tie is a Muslim. There are a few exceptions to this and not all Muslims wear bow ties. Terrorists, for example, don't wear bow ties in public places because they would be identified right away and arrested.

Aside from being a great comedic writer, I have the rare talent of being able to identify Muslims with nothing more than a glance. Here's my secret: men who wear bow ties are Muslims. You may think that members of the Nation of Islam are the only Muslims that wear bow ties, but they aren't. I have found that almost anyone who wears a bow tie is a Muslim. There are a few exceptions to this and not all Muslims wear bow ties. Terrorists, for example, don't wear bow ties in public places because they would be identified right away and arrested. There are several theories as to why Muslims wear bow ties. Argument 1: Some scholars believe Muslims wearing bow ties goes back to Muhammad. The following is the account of a man named Mahmoud, who was present when Muhammad returned to Mecca from his exile in Medina. Unfortunately, Islam does not allow pictures of living things, so we have no visual evidence that Muhammad wore bow ties. Argument 2: Other scholars believe that the bow tie serves as an identification card for Muslims. When Muslims go to their secret Muslim meetings, they simply "flash the tie" at doorman and they are admitted to the meeting. Why can't non-Muslims wear bow ties and be admitted to the Muslim meetings? First off, under this theory, Muslims are only allowed to wear bow ties that must be tied, not clip-on bow ties. This ensures that only Muslims and the select few non-Muslims that wear bow ties can get in. Hey, the system ain't perfect, but neither is the system of using identity cards. Because the majority of non-Muslims cannot tie bow ties, Muslim meetings are kept exclusively Muslim. Argument 3: The scholars that don't subscribe to Arguments 1 or 2, believe that Muslims choose to distinguish themselves from non-Muslims by appearing to be more formal than everyone else. They believe that the best way to achieve this is through the wearing of bow ties.
