You can't change your habits over night. I use to do the samethings you are describing and more except I stoped doing all of that before I hit the big O. There is nothing wrong with having friends and hanging out with them, depending the type of your friends. The first thing that I would advice you to do is to change your friends (if they are what you are trying not to be) and make new friends that are ideal to your desired living style. In the meantime taking it easy and remember that all of us will/are/have gone through what are you going through don't break the laws and don't became someone's baby dady.

Asalaamu calaykum: Originally posted by RamSeeS: " SO THE QURAN RECOGNIZES THE LAND OF ISRAEL AS THE HERITAGE OF THE JEWS AND IT EXPLAIN THAT BEFORE THE LAST JUDGMENT ,JEWS WILL RETURN TO DWELL THERE, THIS PROPHECY HAS ALREADY BEEN FULFILLED. Consider the follwing versus from Sura Isra 101. And indeed We gave to Mûsa (Moses) nine clear signs. Ask then the Children of Israel, when he came to them, then Fir'aun (Pharaoh) said to him: "O Mûsa (Moses)! I think you are indeed bewitched." "Fir'aun rejects Musa's (ASW) message, and at the ned , Firaun drowns verse 103" 102. [Mûsa (Moses)] said: "Verily, you know that these signs have been sent down by none but the Lord of the heavens and the earth as clear (evidences i.e. proofs of Allâh's Oneness and His Omnipotence, etc.). And I think you are, indeed, O Fir'aun (Pharaoh) doomed to destruction (away from all good)!" 103. So he resolved to turn them out of the land (of Egypt). But We drowned him and all who were with him. 104. And We said to the Children of Israel after him: "Dwell in the land, then, when the final and the last promise comes near [i.e. the Day of Resurrection or the descent of Christ ['Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary) on the earth]. We shall bring you altogether as mixed crowd (gathered out of various nations).[Tafsir Al-Qurtubî, Vol. 10, Page 338] 105. And with truth We have sent it down (i.e. the Qur'ân), and with truth it has descended. And We have sent you (O Muhammad SAW) as nothing but a bearer of glad tidings (of Paradise, for those who follow your Message of Islâmic Monotheism), and a warner (of Hell-fire for those who refuse to follow your Message of Islâmic Monotheism)[]. "Infact all the prophets preached the same Laa ilaaha ilalaah" 106. And (it is) a Qur'ân which We have divided (into parts), in order that you might recite it to men at intervals. And We have revealed it by stages. (in 23 years). 107. Say (O Muhammad SAW to them): "Believe in it (the Qur'ân) or do not believe (in it). Verily! Those who were given knowledge before it (the Jews and the Christians like 'Abdullâh bin Salâm and Salmân Al-Farisî), when it is recited to them, fall down on their faces in humble prostration." 108. And they say: "Glory be to our Lord! Truly, the Promise of our Lord must be fulfilled." 109. And they fall down on their faces weeping and it adds to their humility. 110. Say (O Muhammad SAW): "Invoke Allâh or invoke the Most Beneficent (Allâh), by whatever name you invoke Him (it is the same), for to Him belong the Best Names. And offer your Salât (prayer) neither aloud nor in a low voice, but follow a way between. "Asmaa'ul xusnaa" 111. And say: "All the praises and thanks be to Allâh, Who has not begotten a son (nor an offspring), and Who has no partner in (His) Dominion, nor He is low to have a Walî (helper, protector or supporter). And magnify Him with all the magnificence, [Allâhu-Akbar (Allâh is the Most Great)]." Musa (ASW) was promised Jerusalem and what did Musa(ASW) or the previous prophets beieved in ? The answer is in the following versus "136. Say (O Muslims), "We believe in Allâh and that which has been sent down to us and that which has been sent down to Ibrâhim (Abraham), Ismâ'il (Ishmael), Ishâque (Isaac), Ya'qûb (Jacob), and to Al-Asbât [the twelve sons of Ya'qûb (Jacob)], and that which has been given to Mûsa (Moses) and 'Iesa (Jesus), and that which has been given to the Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and to Him we have submitted (in Islâm)." One of the pillars of faith "137. So if they believe in the like of that which you believe, then they are rightly guided, but if they turn away, then they are only in opposition. So Allâh will suffice you against them. And He is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower. 138. [Our Sibghah (religion) is] the Sibghah (Religion) of Allâh (Islâm) and which Sibghah (religion) can be better than Allâh's? And we are His worshippers. [Tafsir Ibn Kathîr.] 139. Say (O Muhammad Peace be upon him to the Jews and Christians), "Dispute you with us about Allâh while He is our Lord and your Lord? And we are to be rewarded for our deeds and you for your deeds. [] And we are sincere to Him in worship and obedience (i.e. we worship Him Alone and none else, and we obey His Orders)." 140. Or say you that Ibrâhim (Abraham), Ismâ'il (Ishmael), Ishâque (Isaac), Ya'qûb (Jacob) and Al-Asbât [the twelve sons of Ya'qûb (Jacob)] were Jews or Christians? Say, "Do you know better or does Allâh (knows better… that they all were Muslims)? And who is more unjust than he who conceals the testimony [i.e. to believe in Prophet Muhammad Peace be upon him when he comes, written in their Books. (See Verse 7:157)] he has from Allâh? And Allâh is not unaware of what you do." This is enaugh evidence to dispute any one that says/believes that Jerusalam belongs to the jews. Musa (moses) (ASW) who they claim to follow, and braught the Torah to them was a MUSLIM. And Allah knows All.

After all these two institutions help the third world by providing monetary aid as well as social programs such us family planning as they claim! What do you think of these or other organizations??

I was wondering why the west is so bent on promoting population control programs in non-white regions of the world namely Africa?

Jazaakalaah

Wasn't the prophet SAW younger then his wife?

Somalians are Somalia's worest enemy. I don't know how the war between Ethiopia and Somalia started, but I bet it was started by the late Siyad Bare. Wasn't Ethiopia the land of Negus were the first muslims sought refuge and our prophet SAW blessed the land (hence the reason they were never colonised)? Is it true that Ethiopia is 60% muslim? This is just my opinion!

An interesting article. Does that mean that no rich person or country is capable of terrorism? We only need to look at history and look how the west (slavery/colonialism) have terrorised Africa, or how Israel(with the US's help) terrorises the Palestenians. To me terrorism is like beauty it is relative, depending on how you can brain wash people.

Rap-Fanatico I'm not hating on you but this piece "I am ya chaperone, not your pedrone/ I gadda a high chevron in the rap throne/ Bursting from Hebron to da hostile Lebanon/" Sounds so familier. If this is your original piece then you've skills.

Hey Rap-Fanatic you should write whose song that was --the true Latino

Shujui Print Bulo' piece and give it to your friend.

I think most of us, especialy me do things that we are not suppose to do spiritually. We do these 'cause we say we'll stop doing these when we get married so on and on. For a minute let us all pretend that we are all adults and pick a certian misdead, that you do now and want to stop because you are married and let us say you were doing since you were a child. Can you just stop it the night of your honeymoon, or two day prior, or after? After you do it you may feal ashamed, ask yourself why do I still do? I'm married why do I still do it, I said I was going to stop doing. My advice is to do what you can humanly do, and the rest leave it up to God. If the wall you are going through go around it, and if you can't seak guidence from Allah, and never be shamed. The worest sin is Shirk and Allah forgives the rest. And the prophet said " if you do a bad dead, do a good dead after it erases." Next time you in your dark room, talking to your soul have a PAXIL or role a Mary jane.

I first saw the lady on ABC's 20/20, and her piece on FGM was an eye opener for me. I heard about her books and never bothered to read them. I guess she run out of topics to write about, 'cause every body knows that SOMALIA is very backward country. If you don't think so, just look at the news archives in the last eleven years, or visit Somalinet's forums and see how backward Somalia is.

Bruce Lee ofcourse!

Tu halakan ku kortay mise tu hawdka lagaag keeno

A lot of it is not unique to Somalis, but the Bannana one is true of Somali.

The dictionary defines "virtue" as -1 a : conformity to a standard of right : MORALITY b : a particular moral excellence ofcourse it is not innate. Usually parents/society teaches these standards. Major source of these standards is religion!
