The hunter and the bear!

[banuhaashim]

In the middle of a forest, there was a hunter who was suddenly confronted by a huge, mean bear. In his fear, all attempts to shoot the bear were unsuccessful. Finally, he turned and ran as fast as he could.

The hunter ran and ran and ran, until he ended up at the edge of a very steep cliff. His hopes were dim.

Seeing no way out of his predicament, and with the bear closing in rather quickly, the hunter got down on his knees, opened his arms, and exclaimed, "Dear God! Please give this bear some religion!"

The skies darkened and there was lightning in the air. Just a few feet short of the hunter, the bear came to an abrupt stop and glanced around, somewhat confused.

Suddenly, the bear looked up into the sky and said, "Thank you, God, for the food I'm about to receive..."

...good one.

I don't get it. Sorry.

Or does the story mean that the sky darkened and Allah was angry because the bear didn't thank him?

This is a deep joke. The bear's nature was to devour and kill. When he didn't have a religion, that was his mission. When he got religion, he would still do the same but color it with religion. The only difference was that he would thank god for 'giving' him the opportunity to kill.

If you look at our history you see many actual examples of this joke.
