Whereas Druze cabbies in Beirut w on't take the payment from your hand if
you're a woman.
First you have to figure out your cabbie's religion rather quickly:If he has
a mirror ornament featuring a two bladed sword with the words (Arabic) There
is no sword like Dhulfaqar and no knight like Ali", (La sayf ila dhulfaqar a
la faris la Ali) you have a Shi'ite driver and can hand him the payment.
