According to you, the right crowd has got to have a head scarf and preferebly muslim ofcourse. If not, they must be bad friends. Hello, this has nothing to do with what type of crowd ay la hang gareesay. This is simply, a man who killed and has the blood of the young lady's in his hands, in the name of religion. Its disgusting, you are disgusting for defending, "right" or "wrong" crowd as you put it, in others words, you are justifying waxa uu sameeye, and further more it seems that you are saying ayada ayaa dhimashadeeda isku keente, so yes, I really do understand you AL jibrish. Salaama Alaykum, You know what they say about assuming right? First off, we don't even know who exactly she hangs out with, so there goes your whole no-hijab = bad crowd arguement. Secondly, I do not condone what her father did to her, istakfurallah, how dare you try and say such a thing? :eek: I have no time for the likes of you, so salaama alaykum, this will be my last reply to you. FYI: I don't read long posts. So how about for future reference you try writing in understandable English, take off the Italics, and shorten your run-on sentences? Just a little tip. Peace out.

May Allah have mercy on her. Here is the link: http://www.citynews.ca/news/news_17567.aspx Yeah, my father had informed me about it yesterday. The news made a mistake. Either way, it's pretty sad. The girl reminds me of some Somali girls who used to do the same thing in the stairwells before going to school.

Salaama Alaykum, No, you don't ''understand'' me right. :rolleyes: In general, it's obvious that she wasn't hanging around with the right crowd. Lakiin, the girl is dead, so I'm just gonna let her rest in peace. Enough. I'm out!

Salaama Alaykum, Good ideas, but I don't think anyone would follow the rules.

Inalilahi Waina Ilayhi Rajicuun Salaama Alaykum, That was perfectly said sister Aaliyah, I'm pretty sure it had to do with peer pressure, everyone goes through it. I've noticed that staying around like-minded individuals who fear their Lord will in turn make you the same. So in essence, she was hanging around with the wrong crowd. Subhanallah, she even used to take off her hijab when she was on the bus heading to school and then put it back on when she was heading home. I guess she just didn't want to lie to her Dad anymore and told him that she just didn't want to wear it. She should want to wear the hijab for the right reasons, feesabililah, otherwise there is no point in wearing it. How is it any good if she despises wearing one because her father forces her to wear it? This is just bringing unneeded attention to Muslims, yet again, because the media will use this to say that Islam is oppressive and backward.

As for meeting up with old friends, when we do meet up on eid, we find ourselves sitting at Tim Horton's looking at each other and saying, "Yo, so what do you wanna do?" and the next person responds, "I dont know, what do you wanna do?" and this continues for 20-25 minutes and that's when I say, "look at the time, boy I better get going cause...." So this Eid..INSHALLAH, things will be different. In fact, I think Im gonna try something totally different. I'm waiting to recieve a recipe from someone and when I get it, I will put that recipe to practise and if I succeed at baking the cake, I'll deliver it to my cousin's house. We await the results of my baking experience Did you say Timmy's? I love Timmy's!

Hey sis, I got an email today from my local masjid and they mentioned how eid is on Wednesday so I guess your Friday night home alone plans are out of the picture As for my plans for eid, this year will be different since most of my family will be heading to the states and my mom left for Australia...so I can kiss the idea of a family dinner goodbye What is a brotha to do...? Salaama Alaykum, I'm hearing that it's supposed to land on either the 21st or 22nd, which is Thursday or Friday. Now I'm hearing that it's Wed? :eek: I shouldn't be complaining, astaghfurallah, but it would have been great had it landed on Friday. I never know what I'm doing for Ciid until the last minute. Perhaps you should give sadaqah, meet up with old friends, visit the little ones.

Salaama Alaykum, Inshallah it's Friday the 21st.

Salaama Alaykum, I plan on staying in again, inshallah. Of course I'll give my greetings, but I love being home alone. That, and I might use this Eid as another opportunity to get more abayads. Inshallah this Eid lands on Friday though.

Originally posted by Cadaan: Reer Kanada off the top of my head: Cadaan(me) Tuujiye Pucca Kool Kat Layziegirl Umm....there's gotta be more of us!! Salaama Alaykum, I'm Canadian as well, I'm sure there's way more of us than you've named.

Originally posted by Ameen: The way I look at it, if the relationship was based around haram than the result of the relationship is pain. Whether that pain presents itself today or reaches us in a year, no good is the outcome of it but just time wasted and pain that could fill the sky. But on the other hand, if that relationship was based around halal, even if that relationship ends and pain reaches us, Allah will (inshAllah) grant us three things in return. See the thing that we have to understand is everything will end. Whether that thing is good or bad, strong or weak, the law of Allah has it that nothing will remain but Allah. Come to terms with this fact and it will be easier to accept reality. Back to what I was saying, Allah will grant us reward for showing patience when times were hard and He will also replace what He took from us with someone even better (inshAllah) and lastly, He would make us feel content with His decree. Salaama Alaykum, I especially agree with this part, perfectly said masha'Allah.

Salaama Alaykum, I'm sure it's a just a phase. Don't lose hope bro just because our country is in turmoil. Ask that Allah ease the suffering and pain that we as a people are going through (inshaa'Allah). Wa'Allahu Aclam.

Salaama Alaykum, Lolz is Caasho the new it? Caasho is hardly the most popular Somali female name, I say change it to Ayan. That is definitely the most popular Soomaali gabar name; gosh, the only way we differentiate between them is by where they live (Ayan *insert street name here*). Anyway, a lot of those were on point. Lool who came up with this na?

Salaama Alaykum, Aw, it sucks that you're leaving you were actually one of the people on here whose posts I actually read through thoroughly. You're a very articulated and deen-drived brother (is that even a word? lol), so inshaa'Allah all the best to you my brother. Alla h is truly the best of planners. Come in once in a while, haye? Make sure we know what's up and what's been going on with you. Wa Alaykum Salaam, fiamanillah bro!

Yes, I can count. Be nice eedo, no hard feelings. Salaama Alaykum, I'm out!

It is harder to learn a language at an older age when you've already been accustomed to speaking another language. They obviously don't shelter themselves from speaking the English language because they at least try to say certain words. You honestly come off so condescending that it's disgusting to even read.

Originally posted by umu zakaria: Hi, I want to persue a different career but in the same feild. Confusingly i got 2 options but i cant decide which one to choose. 1. Medicine, always been my dream but for some reasons, pple keep discouraging me alot. it takes too long, you have a family and a kid to take care of and blah blah blah they say. While they may have a point, i strongly believe nothing beats a determined mind. 2. Midwife. I love kids, I like to help and nothing is more exciting to me than seeing a new little person who i will be like its first human contact! love it, so fullfiling here is my problem, in this country, to be a doctor u need 6 yrs plus some more practical years under supervision before you can practice on your own and be licensed. Midwivery on the hand is not any easier. You have to train as a nurse for 3 years, 2 years of working experiance and 2 years of midwivery training. The journey is the same but end results are very different. what do you think? Salaama Alaykum, if the journey is the same and the results different then I would go with the one that I feel more passionate about. If you love children, and enjoy seeing the miracle of childbirth (a blessing for the Almighty Allah), then I would jump at the chance of midwifery. Sister, I would also look at which career would better help the Ummah as well. That's just my opinion though. May Allah make it easy for you.

Salaama Alaykum, Well you do say that these people you've encountered are in their late 20s to early 30s right? And they've been in an English-speaking nation for around 10-15 years, correct? Well, if someone came from Somalia to Canada about 15 years ago, then that would make them 15 when they arrived (if they are currently 30). It's not so easy to adjust or learn a completely new language when they're already into their teens. Why do you have to make a thread making fun of them? Do you think that you're more ''Canadian'' than them because you can speak English fluently? I actually have a lot of respect for people who can speak their mother tongue fluently instead of some language that isn't their own. Stop being so condescending will you? At the end of the day, we're all from the some nation and no one's better than the other. If they ask you for help, do it. Uf, this thread wreaks of self-righteousness. :rolleyes:

Originally posted by Cara: My closest friend/relative through marriage/neighbor is X sounds like a guilty conscience Believe what you will, I don't expect much from a misguided tart who uses big words to make herself seem like an intellectual infront of Reer Badiye Somalis on an internet forum. My ''guilty conscience'' is non-existent hon, nor does it need you to bring it to existence either. I know that my Aunt, yes that's what I call her for she will forever be, is from tribe xyz and for you to even try and question it is a joke unto itself. Have fun playing minisweeper in your little cubicle. I'm out.

Salaama Alaikum, I remember when I was younger, my next door neighbour was from the mentioned clan (are we allowed to say that? Lucky me, I read the thread beforehand) and I always used to call her ''habaryar'' out of sheer respect. She's is still my habaryar, regardless of anything..especially something that she cannot choose, her qabiil, of which she should be proud of. Geez, Somalis need to grow out of this qabiil taboo. It's so completely disgusting and Unislamic, how dare they? Shame on each and every one of them who hate people based on something that Ilahay has given us. Subhanallah.

Salaama Alaikum, Just thought I would add this: I remember my friend telling me that on the day of Judgement there will be a bridge as thin as hair that leads the Mu'mins to heaven, and there will be a guiding light and the higher your imaan the brighter and larger the light (vice versa for those with low imaan). Subhanallah, may Allah save us from harm.

Originally posted by LayZieGirl: Poster, why don't you worry about your own country instead of posting a list of dangerous cities in the U.S. Your home country is the most dangerous in the world, second to baghdad or the other way around, so either way, you need to concentrate on your own affairs, ma istiri. Did he even state where he lives? Either way, it should be a concern to every one of us. Some of might have relatives and family living there. Haha @ Newark, really? That city seems safe, the last time I went there it seemed gloomy and dark - much like that of London.

I hate when I lose things, I go spastic. :mad:

You're quite the character aren't ya? :rolleyes: Well, I'm off to bed, salaam.
