Dad uses electricity to shock sons up for prayers

A Saudi father used an electric device to shock his sons out of bed for prayers after he failed to wake them up with screams and water.

A YouTube film published in local newspapers sowed the turbaned man entered his teenaged sons’ room, turned the lights on and shook them but they defied his attempts.

He then went angrily to the bathroom and bought water with his hands, which he used to splash it on them. But they still appeared to be lazy.

Fuming and yelling, the man hurried out of their room and came back with an electric device, which made the boys jump out of bed even before the father used it.

The papers did not say where in Saudi Arabia the film was shot.
