Definitely London, but saa ugama harayo, I'm determined to make my second trip worthwhile Insha'Allah. Fayrouz, I'm might just hit you up on that tour guide thing dear

^ @ORR! No worries darling, you're not alone...resorting to spinisterhood by preference will surely be an increasingly prevalent phenomenon in our era...waa iska hawl aduun, arimahaa intaaney bilaaban baaba ooda lagu roggaa Just the other night a good friend of mine was expressing the same sentiments wallee (your tag line)...of course I tried to reason with her religiously and remind her that the fallibility factor is not only peculiar to our male counterparts but she insisted iney pharax la'aan iyo kali duqoow udhaanto xaaladu sideey imika tahay (constant headache) So does the wedding invitation still stand gabadh? I promise, I'll be the least distraction

Originally posted by Nur: what is happening to Muslims world wide is what they have justly earned by their collective negligence iand failure to uphold the tenets of Islam and inviting others to embrace their faith in a wise and kind a way. Precisely!

I must admit, the Liberal campaign has been quite a disappointment to my surprise. Whatever happened to good ol' Canadian values of decency and moral uprightness one might ask... In any case, I urge you all to vote tomorrow Insha'Allah, and vote wisely! It's time that we as Muslims became more active in the political affairs of this country and let our voices be heard. It's our right as well as our responsibility to choose those who will best represent us and the interests of all the citizens. So nay to silence and indifference I say I've personally always supported the NDP, so has my family, and that's where our vote will definitely go this election as well Insha'Allah. Even if the NPD has a very slim chance of winning the elections, each vote still counts, and it helps ensure the election of a New Democrat MP to parliament! I just pray the Tories don't win a majority gov't--that will be disastrous indeed. I guess we'll see soon.

**Are you thinking?** This is one of the most recurrent and fundamental themes in the Qur'an: Allah (swt) asks on many occasions, do they not see the signs? do they not think?. Every verse of the Qur'an is a sign (AYAH) for the believer upon which they need to ponder. Therefore, this deen is for those who can think, reflect, and reason...assess and examine. May Allah (swt) guide us and help us exercise the power of thinking for the right purposes. Thanks sis for sharing.

I'm in the midst of formulating one, but any valuable suggestions will be welcomed and highly appreciated Insha'Allah. Looking forward to the upcoming wrintings!

Interesting stuff, thanks walal. Just what if they had complied (mid caqli yeesha ma laga waayey), what would have been?...aah what ifs... PS. Would you happen to know of a book (written in Eng.) that further illustrates the details of this incident and the British plan walal?

^Being modest aren't ya, good for you! Great commentary though, some of us are just poetically challenged Brother Nur, wlc back! I wasnt aware that e-Nuri had a poetry branch. Nonetheless, interesting piece, it illustrates how precious geel was to our forefathers.

^Salam sis, it's been a good while..how are you dear? Yes, I have heard of the institute a while back, and I've recently seen the founder at RIS4 but I haven't taken any seminars yet. How did you find the courses yourself? I'd love to take the Conquest, Code Evolved, and Purification Act seminars....Fiqh of love sounds interesting as well...but unfortunately, none of these are being offered in Toronto which is the nearest to me. I hope they're thinking about introducing more seminars here in the near future Insha'Allah. Jazakallah Khair dear for sharing the info...

^lol, I Know but would u really trust a man's cooking? I'd have fear of bacterial contamination...like cutting veggies on the kitchen counter just to avoid looking for the cutting board (kaslaannimo)

Subhanallah, this is quite preposterous! I doubt very much this piece is authentic at all. Originally posted by Castro: Just to be sure, I emailed the Al-Azhar for more information on the authenticity of the fatwa. Perhaps it would've been wise had you done so before posting it here on the forum. This type of news poses the risk of causing confusion (as if we don't already have enough) among those who may not be well versed in Islamic jurisprudence, and almost always, certain inattentive and heedless individuals will either ridicule or insult the scholars as a result. Hence, as you have stated somewhere yourself, it can be quite dangerous. As far as the general ruling on nudity during intercourse is concerned, most scholars agreed that it is permissible on the basis that first, there is no Saheeh hadeeths that prohibit this or even deem it Makrooh, and second, they substantiate this with the sound hadeeth of the Prophet (saw) where he said " Cover your ‘awrah except from your wife and those whom your right hand possesses (ie slaves). So calm down folks, you can be as nude as you'd like with your current/potential husbands and wives, though modesty in our behaviours is always ideal Khayr, May Allah guide you all, inshallah! Aameen, we all need His guidance! Although I understand your frustration with those whom you perceive are ridiculing Islamic principals, those who may be criticizing the shayuukhs in general or those whose motives you find questionable, I would advise you to contain yourself when addressing them or dealing with them in real life even; and please refrain from calling them names Insha'Allah for that would only result in further bickering and retaliation. We need to be extremely patient, very calm and considerate when doing da'wa in real life or in the cyber world... and I mean that in the best way

You guys are abnormally rude and inconsiderate bunch! Bishaaro...why do I get this feeling that you'd make a tandoori chef outta any lucky (not,lol) dude oo guri kuugu xarooda, xitaa Farax maskiin ah haduu yahay...ala maxaa kaa dhib iyo imtixaan usugan

I wish you all a very joyous Eid Insha'Allah! He's adorably cuuute, a little haaji, Masha'Allah.

^Wlc sis, if you ever need to take a break from SOL's other rather chaotic threads, this is where to come and chill and chat with cool and collective sisters ...of course I'm referring to the reformed version of this thread...ala maxaan ujeedaa Wiilo oo damacsan dad badan iney dacas la dhacdo, lol Originally posted by Bishaaro: Allaa Xiin maxaa ka raacay!

Inna Lilaah Wa Inaa Ileyhi Raajicun, it is indeed a tragic and disturbing news but nonetheless, it was destined for them (lucky are they, really!). May Allah forgive their previous sins and reward them jannah. May Allah (swt) protect all of the other pilgrims and make it easy for them to perform their hajj Insha'Allah. Princess, I pray that your parents return home safe and sound Insha'Allah.

Congratulations on the marriage sis, May ALlah make your current joy an everlasting one. Wish you the best Insha'Allah

You can’t sell singub to me today in America. Af Miishaar weeyaan…. First of all, no one is trying to 'sell' him to you or force you to like him for that matter, you're the one who chose to participate in this thread only to make sweeping statements and accusations against the author. It's one thing to criticize a writer/poet's literary work but completely another, and quite barbaric if you ask me, to question their intentions, call them hypocrites, and even go as far as deeming their hearts impure :rolleyes: ...what we, or I mostly, simply would like to know is how you came to these vile conclusions?

My wise brother Xiin, dadka qaarkii in loo dhoolacadeeyo oo laga daneysto wax dhaama malaha...not worth your precious time and energy really!

^I might be able to fetch up his # for ya, laakiin maxaad ku odhan lahayd? The man is indeed quite hilarious and very creative.
