26-40: You not a serious procrastinator but you could use some help. (Module 3 in the textbook Learning and Motivation Strategies can give you some guidance in improving your time management.) Oh well, not as bad as I thought!

Hear me out, most guys I've known eagerly point out that fact in the first or second conversation (like that's gonna win me over...sheesh) but I've yet to have any cook me a simple spagetti & tomato sauce meal. I won't even mention the possibiltiy of the impossible (gourmet meal) thereby leading to the obvious and logic hypothesis; an urban myth.lol When I see the tell all marks of spagetti strands on their kitchen walls then and only then will I become a believer. I don't know about that katrina.This farax I knew cooked fabulously(ofcourse when hefelt like it) and was romantic too! I guess miracles are possible in Faraxland

Hilariuos! My habaryar across the room thought I was crazy laughing at a screen.Waxing anywhere else is bad enough, Wouldn't go there!

Laakin aad iyo add ayuu nafta ikeneey.. Nimekubali hiyo kisomali yako ni kali!!!!! Flip mbona unataka kukasirisha watu hivyo?

Allah ha u naxariisto iyada iyo dhamaanteenba

Why would I assume ur roomamate was a muslim? Long winter day!! Anyway I think you should give yourself credit for all that you did to answer his questions and I believe it is a learning opprtunity for you too when he asks about something and you find out for him. Did he try reading about it?maybe online and the books that he might find? I hope all goes well with his grandma and I hope that she does not dampen his spirit.Maybe you could connect him to local brothers who might support him. Usisahau kumpelekea hiyo kofia coz giving gifts is a way of softening a person's heart and most masjids do that for reverts.

I am just wondering what actually makes one a convert and how far will they stick it out? What resources as Muslims can we provide? How can we change the way we view converts in regards with them trying to assimilate into Islam by picking up the dressing habits/language/uttering Allah’s praises in every other sentences? Alhamdullilah that this guy became a muslim. First let's start out by using the right term which is revert as opposed to "convert", because we learn that each child is born into the fitrah of Islam and only grow up into other religions that their parents practise or which they later choose. Regarding your questions about what makes a person a convert/revert my best answer to that would be that it is the will of Allah and that nothing happens that is not predestined.Allah guides to his light whomever he wills.As to how far they will stick it out, for most people it is not a phase that they are going through but rather a deep attachment that they have developed to our beautiful religion and hopefully it will last them the rest of their lives. We can change how we view them by appreciating the simple concept that we have no more rights than them since we were born into the religion.It is not "ours" in a sense that we make them strangers.Like you mentioned they more often than not end up being better muslims than most of us who take the Deen for granted. The best way to help these people is to help them educate themselves about Islam and make them feel welcome into the Islamic brotherhood.If they feel that they gained a family maybe they won't be so lost without their families that might be isolating them.Seeker you and your roommate must have done something right in making him appreciate Islam so you guys should build on that.Being friends with him will help him learn from you and you could answer his questions better than anyone else.

So does that mean that my students are onto something when they just guess stuff that is not even close to what they are supposed to read based on the first letter?

Red Sea leave us alone :mad: .Nairobi is home and so is your precious Somalia too.Am not sure I understood your logic when you linked Aids to unpaved streets?? :confused: Like any country in the world with the most paved streets lacks people with Aids? Huyu kijana akona ISSUES!!

This dude should think about how many lives he might be destroying by following his silly heart.His wife,kids, not to mention all the "social circles". Why ask for advice now when he didn't think twice about his so called great wife when getting into a relationship that developed into this dramatic love? Or was it love at first sight and he didn't plan on it :rolleyes: Since it's all about him,him and then him, why doesn't he do as he wishes..which is clear from the fact that he can't "live" without his love.Or does he just need a validation on his intended course of action?Really such guys make me sick :mad:

Just curious?why not Arab names or Liban? Do you want old names? Cigaal Samatar Cawale Caynaanshe MOre?

Eat a lot of fruit, vegetables, seafood, and honey to maintain your stamina. Don’t smoke. Smell good. Be diligent in brushing your teeth Funny, So that's why all the somali old guys are hooked on habad sawda

MashaAllah I had tears in my eyes when reading this.I was truly touched by how the grace of Allah comes out in all situations even those that seem hopeless.It would have been hard for the writer to imagine the possibility of what happened when he was trying to block out their loud noises.Al-xamdulillah that he didn't change his seat.

Surah Luqman 33] O mankind! do your duty to your Lord, and fear (the coming of) a Day when no father can avail aught for his son, nor a son avail aught for his father. Verily, the promise of Allah is true: let not then this present life deceive you, nor let the Chief Deceiver deceive you about Allah. [34] Verily the knowledge of the Hour is with Allah (alone). It is He Who sends down rain and He Who knows what is in the wombs. Nor does anyone know what it is that he will earn on the morrow; nor does anyone know in what land he is to die. Verily with Allah is full knowledge and He is acquainted (with all things). How true this is if only we were to heed these words of wisdom from the All-Wise.We strive and work for dunya forgetting just how little we are actually capable of or how limited our knowledge is even in this age of "knowledge"

that's good to know... I stand corrected!

I really like these strategies they are practical and a way to fight back instead of letting shaitan have the upper hand.May Allah bless you both for sharing them.

Raula asante sana sis mimi pia ninaisikia ikiimba akilini "wacha...wacha waseme...wakisema mchana wee..usiku watalala!! Hiyo maskan yaa jokes section lazima nitakuja kuipokea asante kwa kutukaribisha.Sijui kwa nini hawa watu wanataka kubishana bure eti kwa sababu watu wamezungumza Kiswahili? Hiyo sini ku kosa kazi?? Northerner ain't o need to call us bloody swahilis...would you like to be called bloody arab?? Someone asked if I had been to somalia yes I have been to somalia in Xamar,Galkacyo,Hargeisa and Berbera among other places and am fluent in both written and oral somali..but I still think of Nairobi as home not to deny my somali identity but because I was born and brought up there..What's wrong with that? As for Red Sea and all those who want to argue the point of Somalinimo and shanta soomaaliyeed and all those good things.....keep up the good fight but start with getting back the one Somali state up and running b4 you think of getting back Kenyan Somali's,Ethiopian Somalis etc..etc...

very smart may Allah reward you for this article.

Yes they were nice pics I for one enjoyed seeing them as it is familiar territory and it brought up a couple of memories.
