Salaama alaykum, Ahmed Deedat (rahimullah) is really good in comparative religion, mashaAllah. I really admire him, and ameen to the 'adiyah.

Salaama alaykum, MashaAllah very well stated sis Ju. Khalaf, istaqhfurallah, maybe I was being too judgemental may Allah forgive me inshaallah. Only Allah Azaawajal knows what our hearts conceal and reveal, and you're right akhi, perhaps the sister in question could be doing something completely harmless.

Salaama alaykum, today I was moved by a lecture made by Sheikh Yasir Qadhi at RIS. MashaAllah, it was truly powerful.

Thanks for the laugh, Zaf.

Salaama alaykum, I said that she's not much of a ''looker'', if that constitutes being ugly, haye. It has nothing to do with flauntly one's attributes, or showing the cawrah, just the fact that being a model isn't hard. I know tons of more beautiful Somali women than Hawa and she's not that great looking, especially when you see her without make-up. As for women who wear the hijab being more beautiful, men shouldn't be looking anyway. Lower your gaze.

Originally posted by Skipper: Yes girls will say that they want such men but at the end of the day its the bad guy who gets what he wants. Salaama alaykum, Sorry to answer your question with a question akhi, but anyone who wants a ''bad boy'' is under the wrong impression. How will you answer to your kids when you prohibit them from doing something and they say, ''Ohh but aabo did it''. Subhanallah. I'm serious when I say that I want someone who holds their deen dear to them. It'll in turn make me a better person, and having a marriage based on such criteria ("bad boys") won't work out in the long run. Just imagine, waking up with your husband for Fajr prayer. MashaAllah.

Salaama alaykum, Those who lack deen and dhaqan. Is it too much to ask for someone who prays five times a day (these days)? Subhanallah, no one hides their sins anymore and on the Day of Judgement, for doing so, Allah will reveal your sins to everyone.

Originally posted by Ameen: quote:Originally posted by Al-Mu'minah: one who gets up in the morning and goes to the masjid to pray Fajr There was this brother that I knew. He would be tired throughout the day and I would wonder why until one day he told me that he spends the whole night talking on the phone. I was like, for WHAT? Better yet, with who? I didnt get an answer for the who but he told me he does that cause it helps him stay up and go to the masjid for Fajr. I was like, Okay there body if you really wanna get up, you can join our Brotherhood calling list (which we dont do anymore ) Salaama alaykum, Hmm, good strategy but it would probably wake up the fam what with my loud talking and all (a trait I inherited from my father). I remember that calling thing for Fajr, Khalid Bin Waleed used to do it; I wonder what happened! It would be of so much benefit to me. I've been missing some Fajr prayers, astaghfirallah.

Salaama alaykum, My heart's greatest desire is to leave this world knowing that I did all I could to gain Allah's pleasure.

Salaama alaykum, It's all based on family values. Who would let their little teenage daughter spend two weeks with her friends doing God knows what, subhanAllah? If you're able to keep her away from what Allah has forbidden, then do so, who cares if it's being ''overprotective''? She's your child afterall and all you want to do is keep her safe. The deen should be implemented in children when they are young, and in an encouraging way so that they end up loving it until they grow up inshaAllah. Everyone is bound to rebel, but it's the foundations and fabric you lay into your household during those first years of childhood that will shape the way they live the rest of their life inshaAllah. That's not to say that young sisters should not be given freedom, but speak to her about her whereabouts first and make sure you can contact her and all that necessary stuff (use technology to your advantage). Lakinse if you're allowing your daughter to go on a ''roadtrip'' (woohooo) with her friends then surely there is something wrong with your parenting skills. :confused: Anyway, what are the conditions on a Muslimah travelling alone? I've heard that if she is travelling a far distance, then a mahram must be present. Allahu Calim. PS. A late Eid Mubarak to you too.

Salaama alaykum, What I really admire in a brother is one who gets up in the morning and goes to the masjid to pray Fajr. That shows how high he holds his deen, mashaAllah. All other criteria are secondary.

Salaama alaykum, Today I had too many candy canes (mostly offered to me on the street).

Only Allah Ta'ala knows the true niyaah of his servants, so please let's not be suspicious of our sisters. Some may wear the abaya to please their creator and some may not, at the end of the day Allah Ta'ala chooses whether he will give them the sawab for it or not. Wa Allahu 'Alim. I know that I don't get my abayas fitted to my width and height, but that's just due to the fact that I'm lazy. Although I should because It's much better than having it drag on the floor and get dirty. Eid Wanaagsan.

Salaama alaykum, I fasted yesterday, it was really hard, but I got through it alhamdulilah. Eid Mubarak everyone, inshaAllah everyone's enjoying it.

Eid wanaagsan effribadhi.

Salaama Alaykum, So they'll be online soon as well? Good to know. I don't get my abayads tailored, I just check it (without putting it on) and take it. They're so expensive though. I usually have to fork out $50-70 for my abayads, and surprisingly the Somali stores sell it for cheap.

Salaama Alaykum, Subhanallah this is sick. I wonder why she had to say that she was the neice of one the late president(s)? I hope she gets what she deserves. Disgusting. :mad:

So NG, just smile and say, I don't do parties dahling, thats so pass'e.. :rolleyes: Or Just tell them truth and say 'if I party with you tonight, my wife won't let me eat grass with my friends on Eid' Anyways, you've been at your office for centuries, surely this has been dealt with before and surely, it's an established fact that you're a Muslim who doesn't do xmas... Mise waad ka daashey? p.s Merry Christmass Salaama alaykum sis, Couldn't have said it any better. Well, actually, I was too lazy to make my own reply so I sifted through all the posts and found one that wholly agreed with. Ah, the days of High School, where one would be able to take 2 days off of school.

Salaama Alaykum, That was heart-warming, jazakallah khairun.

Salaama Alaykum Is this only in the UK ukhti?

Salaama Alaykum, What a useful thread ukhti, thank you for reminding me. Today the khatib was talking about Dhul-Hijjah and Carafah, masha'allah it was wonderful. I think that's why I Friday is my fave day of the week (khutbahs). Anyway, InshaAllah I'll fast on the day of Carafah, I don't think that I'll be able to fast for Dhul-Hijjah.
