Rudy, I've read that article before and I think it carries some good points. I don't understand why everyone is getting all agitated..but you have to agree that this version of Islam everyone seems to be practicing nowadays is a little tailored to men. I want to ask one thing thou: what do you mean by the clear islamic rulings? Do you mean the quran....or the scholars?

Ok, if smoking is haraam..using the same argument as sagal and khayr..then subaag should be haraam, too! Do you agree? Why do I say this...because large amounts of it will kill you...if you eat a little everyday..it will add up in the end..and you will have a big old heart attack. Same thing with smoking, little of it won't kill you..but it will add up in the end. So khayr, what do you have to say about this? Oh, and don't let your desires get in the way! **this would mean no more cajeelo ***

Thank god they took the picture out!

When I get angry...I mean really really angry...I chant the word.. Goose-frah-bah over and over...and before you know it...I'm my cool-headed self again!

Ilahi ha una xariisto walaal...

Who cares about the man's religion...let him believe what ever he wants to! :rolleyes:

Poster, Why do you think it's consentual? because you are a big fan of him and because he said so? This is my opinion: There is a possibility he did rape her...we'll just have to see what typ eof evidence arises before people start jumping to conclusions.

Why is Qac Qac concerned so much with other peoples deen? Who died and made you an Imam?

Let me put it this way: My mom had a career and did a good job raising us, too! I think the reason some women think they can't handle both is because they have been brain-washed by parents and men to think that way. Would you go to post-graduate school only to raise kids for the rest of your life..and clean up after you husband, who has his own career and is sure as hell ain't worrying about no kids! How fullfilling would life be ? Somealien and Bee, I understand what you are saying and somewhat agree....but this society needs BOTH parents working in order to have a decent living. If we were back in Somalia, being a stay at home would be more feasible...but here...it's a different story. Qac Qaac, All in the name of Islam, huh? See girls, that's exactly what I was talking about. Bruh, did you know that nabi mohammed (pbuh) used to work for KHADIJAH? maybe someday your wife will be the boss of you! 1

No offense Lexus, But if I tell you exactly where it's a better living, I'm afraid there is going to be a migration of somalis coming to that region....lol

^ High in fat foods should be haram too...or driving at high speeds...cuz they are hazardous to you also.... You can't THINK something is haram.....we already know what is and what isn't..cuz it should all be stated in the Koran!

Happy Birthday LUCKY

Safi, Great Concept...I just ordered a copy and it should be coming in 7-10 days. Can't wait to read it.

Rock's chick, what movie is that? I never saw him with hair...the thought is unimaginable!

Ent...I understand what you are saying in some level bruh. Even though Somalis advanced from the Nomadic lifestyle rapidly..I don't think their mentality changed with the same pace. We need to stop separating ourselves from the rest of the world by calling them galoos or adoon or what have you...but embrace people..of all backgrounds. Didn't Allah (s.a.w.) tell us to be good to our neighbors? I don't think that included only Somali Muslims.. Anyway..that's all I have to input today! PS: Mz Unique...I think that the use of welfare is not doing our somali communities in the west any justice..if we take it, we are playing the "white" man's role: that all black people are lazy....Welfare is only for those people who need help getting BACK on their feet.. I say why not exploit Financial aid instead

So I guess scholars make the decision whether something is halal to us or haram? I don't get it :confused:

Vin diesel is sexy and bald...but I don't think it would fly with every guy.

I don't really know what it means... All I know is..When I get loud and abnoxious in Somali populated places..I can get away with it.

Sundays! By God, I love sundays!!! I have nothing to do on sundays..and I sure as hell don't plan on studying on sundays..my official day off..no work no school no obligations that I can think of...just sleep and be a coach potato! **day-dreaming about next sunday**

**break dances** ***does the robot*** ****electric slides out of the room****

lol this is too funny. Is that a "man" behind that post...cuz it sure doesn't sound like it.

These crazy Europeans! Doesn't it seem like they are moving backwards in time..then forwards! Whats next...the holocaust of the Hijaabies?

No wonder Somali males at the age of 30 marry 18 year old..cuz they are not at all interested in her brains but her image and her ability to cook! You say we are being too emotional...but you are being too shallow! Which one is worse?

If I had 24 hours to live... Well, I throw a going away party ....I want to go out extravagantly

LMAO I thought I was the only one who thought that...but someone else beat me to it! **hehe**
