Salaama alaykum, Don't overburden yourself sis. Some sisters like KoolKat and Umu_Zakaria gave some really good advice (mashaAllah). Like they said, don't rush yourself.

No muslima will be against what Allah permitted but she has the right to ask for a divorce if she cant deal with a polygamist husband. Ameen you ask why woman dislike ploygamy? I ask you if your wife decided to befreind another man and you know very well when n where they canoodle togather, what would say? God forbid that is haraam but logically apart from mixing up of paternal rights, the whole issue is the same. so you see my point. Polygamy is very hard on woman, it tears their hearts and bruises their souls however, we must accept as an order from Allah and strife to gain thawab through our struggle. After all life is not an easy journey and this world is just temporary. It could be fullfiling to share with your fellow sister what you love most. Salaama alaykum, Perfectly said mashaAllah.

Salaama alaykum, Feet scare me and disgust me! Keep your shoes, or socks on at all times (except when making wudhu, taking a shower, taking a bath etc.)! Seriously, feet smell and they remind me of fungus. My question: How do you keep your concentration in salaah? This has become really hard for me these past few days.

When you said that, it reminded me of my mother for some reason. Concerning the event, is this where Somalis and Non-Somalis meet up in one area to seek a Somali to marry? Sounds weird, imho.

Some have a lot of growing up to do...

Salaama alaykum, Everyone has a role and purpose in life. Allah created us in pairs for a reason, so to answer your question it would be near impossible to live without men in our lives (speaking from a female's perspective) and vice versa for males.

Lol sis Aaliyah you're hilarious.

Yeah, I was watching the news a couple of days ago and apparently the poor girl was jumped by four girls and sexually assaulted by a boy. I'm telling you, if that school was in Toronto (or anywhere else with a larger Somali population) that wouldn't have happened. Her parents came in and talked to the principal and her father said that she has nightmares about the whole incident. She didn't want her face to be show on television, miskeen, may Allah ease her pain inshaAllah.

Today I learned something new.

I know sis. Watcha doing up so late though? :eek:

Of course the Mahr's got to be big though, j/k.

JazakiAllahu khayr.

Lol Salaama alaykum sisters, my cellphone's not that big, it's actually pretty small. I meant my humongous books I have to carry around; it's the main reason why I have such a big bag.

Salaama alaykum, I'm planning on getting married in two years inshallah and I'm going to go about it in the most Islamic way possible. No extravagance, small reception, family and friends, and none of that diamond ring bs. If any brother comes to me with that, I won't even give him a second look.

Salaama alaykum, I'm a bag fiend, but I have to say those bags are saying nothing no offence yaa ukhti. I prefer bags that are big and bulky, ones that can fit everything including my cellphone and heavy books.

Salaama alaykum. No! Why? Because reality shows, are far from ''reality'' and depict a disgusting kufaar lifestyle.

Salaama alaykum, This should be moved to the politics section! Qabiil rubbish, subhanAllah.

Salaama alaykum, I personally would not be apart of a polygamous relationship but mashaAllah to those who are willing to be in one. I just can't do it.

Salaama alaykum, Alhamdulilah I always pray! I get really agigated when I don't pray right on time, and sometimes I pray two rakats afterwards asking for forgiveness (for my tardiness). Friday prayer is great, the khutbahs are mashaAllah wonderful, I can't miss one! Good topic, barakallahu feek. Inshallah this encourages people to start praying. Subhanallah Allah is truly Ever-merciful, we get ajar just for doing wudhu, praying, praying on time, etc. Just smiling is zakat. Subhanallah!

Originally posted by umu zakaria: That despearate. Going to local mosque to look for men from other races whom they dont even know yet? Salaama alaykum, I for one find that insulting. How is that in anyway desperate? At least they're going about it in an Islamic way. I commend them for that, mashaAllah. It all boils down to preference, if a sister prefers marrying a revert from Australia then who are we to deny her that freedom?

Originally posted by Modesty: How can you attract people to Islam if they see you behaving in crappy ways? You are supposed to make all your actions beautiful, and I doubt the prophet Muhammad(saw) ate that way. I know it seems minor, but it speaks volumes on how you were raised. The prophet (SAWS) also preached that one shouldn't speak ill of others and that one should hold their tongue aswell (if they have nothing good to say). Implement that sunnah in your life, and make taubah. You're insulting people, and you'll be held accountable for everything you've done in Dunya on the Day of Judgement. I personally hold nothing against you, but people may feel some sort of hostility against you and you may end up being on Allah's bad side because of what you're saying here sis. Watch out. Feeamanillah. I'm out.

Salaama alaykum, I've noticed this too sister, and it's due to several reasons. Some of which may include the fact that they want their babies to look beautiful (subhanallah), they want someone who's very serious about their deen, they just want to break through the cultural boundaries that they've been living in their whole lives etc. Just keep in mind that people have different preferences, and have the choice to marry whomever they please as long as they turn out to be good Muslims. It's Qadr Allah (predestination); everything in your life has already been written down for you, so just embrace it. When people start insulting each gender (ie. Somali girls have lost it, Somali guys have no deen) then that's where the problem really is. If a Muslim(ah) is happy with someone from another race, then the least we could do is be happy for them.

Salaama alaykum, I think you're very judgemental and condescending. May Allah rid you of it, amiin.
