you can always get your mom to do it for you. I dont see anything wrong with taking that option. I hear what you mean protocol, its indeed hard to avoid paying interest. But, it happens to be one of the highest sins in islam. Lets strive hard to avoid it.. For theres something better waiting for us in Akhira inshalah. salaam

I think taking loans is alright, as long as you don't pay interest. There is always that 6 months after graduation that you have. Not to mention you can request interest relief up to 30 months. And, theres that option of getting "hagbad" and paying you school fees. And, later paying back to somalis without any interest. I never thought abt inflation though...I will have to talk to a scholar.. Urban inshallah I will pray for all of us, we are in great need of Allah's mercy. p.s hagbad waxa weeyan dumar badan oo lacag iskusoo uruuriyey oo aad qadatid bil..bilaha kalena aad ayar lacagtii usoo celisid...somali ladies often do it at least those who trust each other..for example, say you took 5000 at once and you gonna like pay a 1000 back every month or whatever your group agrees on.

lol cadaan the following year she was 26??? If I was you I would have put her on the spot I totally hate liers. subhanalah, why would anyone lie about their age?...but as they say age is nothing but a number. However, honesty is the key to establishing any type of relationship. lidia lol sis.. salaam

10 did you say lol,you truly have a high opinion of me. I am flattered.

Usually people would be closer to their friends than parents (i.e like they would think their parents don't understand them) . So, perhaps she might listen to her best friend or maybe not. Like I said if she doesn't listen to her then what the girl who posted this should do is let the girl make up her mind. Anyhow, that girl is making a huge mistake. How can you cut ties with your own family. They are the ones that at the end of the day matter. For all we know after a month he's gonna tell her " go to hell" ,,,xagee iska doonasa?bal ii sheeg...I would say your friend should try to get her parents approval, and maybe get the local imams involved. Unless the brother is bad and her parents have justified reason to disapprove this marriage. In that case they are looking out of her. But, some people are not wise enough to understand whats right, they have to go through it... lol@ slaanka iska tuur..xasid sanidaa walaaley. qofkasta adoo kale la iska soo qada and you have to go out of your way and advice..bt advice is just an advice and at the end of the day that person will make their decision. salaaam

Well sister you have to be honest with your best friends. It’s usually the other way around and you are not direct with people you don't know that much. But, when it comes with people who are very close to you whom you have very close relationship and you care about very much. Then, it is essential that you are honest with them. Otherwise, how can you claim to be their friend. A friend is someone who advices you and corrects you whenever he/she sees you going on the wrong path or screwing up your life. So, you have to do your job and be honest with your friend. Don’t support her on this issue when you clearly know it’s wrong and unislamic. But, at the same you need to draw the line. Your job is to go out of your way and tell her whats right. Once she goes she doesn’t want to hear your say, you have to let it go. She’s an adult and she will make her choice in life. That’s what happens in life ya ukhti you can not correct everyone and it hurts I know seeing someone you love just wasting their life away. But what can you do sis? Your job as a friend and as a muslim sister is to preach and learn your limit, that you can’t live for others and impose your opinions.. Hope that helps Salaam.

Waxan ka helaa islaamaha marka Muqdishu laga hadlo, la soo boodo: ba'a ba'a ba'a, barigii koob iyo sagaashankii intii la inaga laayay iyo intan Muqdishu ku dhimatay ayaa is tira la eg? Ma kaa dhab baa? what took place at hamar in 1991 was real and tragic, and those who been through will tell you what it was to see your neighbor/friend come against you merely due to the fact that you belong to a certain tribe. That been said, Of course am not going to underestimate whats going in Hamar today. Inshallah I do hope that things work out in hamar, and in somalia as a whole. And, that we all learn to move forward and forgive one another. And, not allow the actions of few people to cloud our better judgements. wa salaamu alaikum

Subhanalah the following Ayas filled my eyes with tears ...since most of us are not fluent arabic speakers, a lot of times the Quran doesnt fill us with emotion since we dnt understand half of it.But, once you actually pay attention to the meaning you would be in tears. Surah Al Haqq ayahs 25-32 25 But as for him who is given his record in his left hand, he will say oh, would that I had not been given my book.. 26 And knew not what my reckoning 27 Oh, would that it had been death 28 My wealth hath not availed me 29 My power had gone from me 30 It will be said take him and fetter him 31 And then expose him to hell fire.. 32 And then insert him in a chain whereof the length is seventy cubits… Subhanalah sometimes we underestimate whats waiting for us if we deviate from the right path. May allah swt guide us all You can listen to this surah being recited by sheikh imam faisal http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kU_Q8lk0wMM I wonder if this imam has a website where we can listen to him reciting the whole Quran, he recites beautifully. also check out this kid who is reciting the quran: imagine having a son who recites the Quran in such manner, wouldn't you give up the world for that...shows how it pays off to invest in your kids. salaam ------------------------- 093.004 And verily the Hereafter will be better for thee than the present.
