This is a classic joke

Classic, but still stupid enough to make you laugh!

An Englishman, an Indian and a Pakistani are caught by the ruler of a province. The three were trespassing and are now to be dealt serious punishment. The penalty - 100 lashes on the back! But the gentle ruler, in all his kindness offers one wish to each of them before the lashes (of course, they couldn't wish for the lashes not to take place...)

So the event proceeds. The Englishman volunteers to get done first and asks for 5 pillows to be tied to his back. The pillows tear open after about the 10th lash and the Englishman is dealt a series of excruciating blows. The Pakistani volunteers to go next, asking for 15 pillows to be tied to his back! These too tear open by the 20th lash and he too is dealt a series of lashes dealing pain that is legendary.

Finally it is the Indian's turn and he wishes for...the Pakistani to be tied to his back...
