My anger rose furthermore. I wanted to pick up my monitor and smash it against the wall! /QUOTE] I picked up a razor. I threatened myself with it I found a bottle of bleach. I took a drop of that and put it on the wound. Flash lights everywhere. PAIN. Lots and lots of pain. I twisted, I turned, and I counted sheep, counted goats and kicked the green bottles of the wall. I got caught in the act of walking away, I was going to punch whoever catches me. I’d be a Bee murderer . The guy at the bus stop was laughing and saying, “ You’re not just a bully you’re a coward too†I punched him on the nose Punched him with the pound and ran away. Doesnt anyone else notice this disturbing trend?. There is a positive correlation between how bored NGONGE gets and the degree of his violent behaviours. Furthermore I notice that after every conflict NGONGE either runs away or tries to stick to his pointless arguement. Dare I say COWARD?

There is no right or wrong here. This is a case of personal choice and its between the husband and wife to decide. No one can pass judgement on a man's character depending on whether or not hes in the delivery room. That does not make a difference at all. Its how he treat you at home that matters...after the baby comes. Will he sit on the couch and demand you to prepare the meals and do all the housechores even though you werent out of the hospital for twenty four hours yet? Or will he help and try everything in his power to make you comfortable? A few hours in the delivery room doesnt do anything I believe. HUH! WHO CARES. NEVERMIND.

Dont get twisted out of shape people. This was a fun article. Of course we know our religion and implying that we dont or are trying to ignore the parts we dont personally agree with is offensive.

^^^^^ Did the wifes have to share rooms too? Bunk bedded together? :eek:

I like your first suggestion SHOOBARO. Thats a good idea. But forget about the second..that one is crazy and scary. Your just gonna bother the doctors and have an unpleasant experience. Everytime you see a newborn or a pregnant woman whether in reality or TV ur probably gonna have traumatic flashbacks

I wouldnt give a rats tail either way...cause i'd be too knocked out to figure out if hes in or out or care for that matter :cool:

One will do the cleaning, one the cooking, on the kids feeding, one will iron the husband’s clothes, one will take the rubbish out and they’ll all still have enough time for rest and relaxation. Do you think the somali women would seriously consider the prospect of sharing a house....okay maybe a husband....but a HOUSE?!!! Now thats going too far :mad: :mad: :mad: Khayr....#1 of course. There are advantages and priviledges for being the first.

Polygamy - The Ultimate Feminist Lifestyle By Elizabeth Joseph I've often said that if polygamy didn't exist, the modern American career woman would have invented it. Because, despite its reputation, polygamy is the one lifestyle that offers an independent woman a real chance to "have it all". One of my heroes is Dr. Martha Hughes Cannon, a physician and a plural wife who in 1896 became the first woman legislator in any U.S. state or territory. Dr. Cannon once said, "You show me a woman who thinks about something besides cookstoves and washtubs and baby flannels, and I will show you nine times out of ten a successful mother". With all due respect, Gloria Steinem has nothing on Dr. Cannon. As a journalist, I work many unpredictable hours in a fast-paced environment. The news determines my schedule. But am I calling home, asking my husband to please pick up the kids and pop something in the microwave and get them to bed on time just in case I'm really late? Because of my plural marriage arrangement, I don't have to worry. I know that when I have to work late my daughter will be at home surrounded by loving adults with whom she is comfortable and who know her schedule without my telling them. My eight-year-old has never seen the inside of a day-care center, and my husband has never eaten a TV dinner. And I know that when I get home from work, if I'm dog-tired and stressed-out, I can be alone and guilt-free. It's a rare day when all eight of my husband's wives are tired and stressed at the same time. It's helpful to think of polygamy in terms of a free-market approach to marriage. Why shouldn't you or your daughters have the opportunity to marry the best man available, regardless of his marital status? I married the best man I ever met. The fact that he already had five wives did not prevent me from doing that. For twenty-three years I have observed how Alex's marriage to Margaret, Bo, Joanna, Diana, Leslie, Dawn, and Delinda has enhanced his marriage to me. The guy has hundreds of years of marital experience; as a result, he is a very skilled husband. It's no mystery to me why Alex loves his other wives. I'd worry about him if he didn't. I did worry in the case of Delinda, whom I hired as my secretary when I was practicing law in Salt Lake City. Alex was in and out of my office a lot over the course of several months, and he never said a word about her. Finally, late one night on our way home from work, I said, "Why haven't you said anything about Delinda?" He said, "Why should I?" I said, "She's smart, she's beautiful. What, have you gone ****** on me?" They were married a few months later. Polygamy is an empowering lifestyle for women. It provides me the environment and opportunity to maximize my female potential without all the tradeoffs and compromises that attend monogamy. The women in my family are friends. You don't share two decades of experience, and a man, without those friendships becoming very special. I imagine that across America there are groups of young women preparing to launch careers. They sit around tables, talking about the ideal lifestyle to them in their aspirations for work, motherhood, and personal fulfillment. "A man might be nice," they might muse. "A man on our own terms," they might add. What they don't realize is that there is an alternative that would allow their dreams to come true. That alternative is polygamy, the ultimate feminist lifestyle. From a speech given by Elizabeth Joseph at "Creating a Dialogue: Women Talking to Women", a conference organized by the Utah chapter of the National Organization for Women. Joseph is an attorney, a journalist, and lives in Big Water, Utah. ============================= Doesnt that sound nice?

Iranian women to lead prayers Iranian women play a central role in Iran's reformist movement Islamic religious leaders in Iran have lifted a ban on women leading prayers. They will now be able to lead congregations of women worshippers for the first time. The measure is intended to counter declining interest in Islam among young Iranians, particularly young women. Until now only men have been allowed to lead congregational prayers in both the Sunni and Shiite Muslim traditions. 'Major development' The religious decree, or fatwa, was issued by six senior clerics, or 'marjas' (sources of emulation in religious matters). President Khatami owes his election win to the women's vote 'Major development' Women are to be allowed to lead congregations of women in prayer, particularly on Fridays, the main weekly communal prayer. Ali Asghar Nuri, an Education Ministry official, said the hope is that the decree will encourage young women to join in prayers. "The employment of women as leaders of Friday congregation prayers at the head of other women during prayers held at schools constitutes a major development," Mr Nuri told the Iranian news agency Irna. Women's victory The change in law and practice is being seen as a victory for women's movements in Iran, where the traditional male privileges in politics and in the clergy are being challenged. Women have played a central role in recent years in the reformist movement that now dominates the Iranian parliament, and in the election of reformist president Mohammad Khatami in 1997.

I took the bottle out to find the Bee dead! I almost fainted. I took deep breaths and convinced myself that the Bee was not dead. Maybe it’s just unconscious. How do you give a Bee first aid? ]

Loved it.

Eternal Life: Rewards and Punishments By Shadiah Hamza Sheikh, Ph. D. * * * * * Those who believe in the oneness of Allah and His Messenger Muhammad (s.a.w.), including all obligations ordered by Islam, and do the righteous good deeds, their reward with their Rabb (Cherisher and Sustainer) is “Eden Paradise†-- i.e., gardens of eternity, underneath which, rivers flow, they will abide therein forever. On the other hand those who disbelieve in the religion of Islam, the Qur’an and the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.s.), from among the people of scripture (Jews and Christians) and Al-Mushrikun will abide in the fire of Hell. (Al Bayyinah 6-8) The Good Signs of Death: The Inhibitants of Hell: 1. Dying saying “La Ilah Illa Allah†will automatically enter one Paradise. 2. Dying on a Friday “Whoever dies on a Friday, Allah prevents him from the grave trial†(Ahmed and Turmithi) 3. Dying in Jihad, which also includes dying guarding soldiers fighting for Allah’s cause 4. Dying giving Da’wah (guiding) to the rulers. 5. Dying defending one’s money, women or oneself. 6. Dying in child birth. 7. Dying with a plague. 8. Reading Surah Tabarak would ease the grave trial. Reward and punishment of a person is shown to him the minute of his death. Ibn Al Bar’a narrated a long Hadith about that, saying that the Prophet (s.a.w.s.) told Assahaba: “When a pious (mu’min) is about to die, the angel of death would sit near his head, show him his place in heaven and says to his soul (O you the one in complete rest and satisfaction come back to your Rabb (Cherisher and Sustainer), to God’s forgiveness and Paradise.†(Al Fajr 27-28) Angels descend with a shroud and perfume from heaven, and the angel of death, then, takes the soul puts it in the shroud and perfume and pass it to the angels to ascend with it to heaven. When they pass it to the first heaven, other angels ask: “Whose good soul is it?†They reply: “It is so and so, would you let it ascend to the next heaven?†They would not only agree, but also join them in ascending it to the higher heaven, and so on until they reach the seventh heaven, where Allah tells his angels to register the pious in illiyyun (nearest to Allah) and take his soul back to his body in his grave. The grave trial then starts. Two stern and severe angels would ask the deceased: “Who was he worshipping, they would shout (frightening him) who is your God? What is your religion and who is your Prophet? He would answer, “Allah is my God, Islam is my religion and Muhammad (s.a.w.s.) is my Prophet.†At that time a voice from heaven would call, “Open a door in heaven for himâ€, and a good looking man would tell him the good news of Allah granting him paradise. Then he shows him his place in heaven. That good looking man is the person’s deeds. As far as the Kafir (non-believer) is concerned, the same happens except the angel of death would take his soul violently and the angels in every heaven would ask: “Whose stinky soul is it?†Then the gates of heaven are never opened to him: “ Those who believe our Ayat, and treat them with arrogance, for them the gates of heaven will not be opened and they will not enter Paradise until the camel goes through the eye of the needle .†(Al A’araf 40) Angels then take his soul back to his body and the two severe angels would squeeze him asking the same questions, and every time the deceased would not know the answer, and the grave would tighten and squeeze him until his ribs overlap. An ugly man (his bad deeds) shows him his place in hell and hits him hard on the head so hard that he becomes dust and Allah returns him as he was, then he hits him again and so on until the day of judgment. THe Inhibitants of Hell: Hell has seven gates, every one is assigned for a specific class of sinners: “And surely Hell is the promised place for them all, it has seven gates, for each of those gates is a special class of sinners assigned.†(Al Hijr 42-43) Its depth is so extensive that it would take a stone thrown in it 70 years for it to reach the bottom. And its fuel is evil and hard hearted people, Jinn, stones and idols that were worshipped instead of Allah. After judgement, people will be sent to Hell or Paradise, according to their deeds. Then Allah would save those who guarded against evil. Some of the Inhabitants of Hell: 1. Hypocrites -- “Indeed the hypocrites will be in the lowest depth of the fire “(An- Nisa:145) 2. Polytheists -- “Those who reject the truth among the people of the Book and the polytheists will be in the fire of Hell, dwelling therein forever. They are the worst creatures.†(Bayyinah: 5-6) 3. Sinners and criminals -- “Indeed the criminals will be in the punishment of Hell, dwelling therein forever. It will not be lightened for them and they will be overwhelmed there in despair. (Zukhruf:74-76) 4. Pharaoh, the wives of Lut and Nuh, Abu Lahab and his wife and Abu Talib. 5. Those who are unjust -- “It will be said to those who were unjust: taste the eternal punishment. Are you recompensed except for what you used to earn “(Tawbah:63) 6. Transgressors -- “For him who had transgressed and preferred the life of his world, indeed Hell will be his shelter.†(Nazi’at 39) 7. Tyrants -- “But they asked victory and disappointment is the lot of every obstinate tyrant. In front of him is Hell and is given pus to drink.†(Ibrahim:15-16) 8. People of the Book who reject Islam. 9. Murderers of Believers -- “And whoever kills a believer intentionally his recompense is Hell to abide therein forever.†(Buruj 10) 10. Those who commit suicide. 11. Women who were ungrateful: Imran bin Husayn narrated that Prophet (s.a.w.) said “I looked into Paradise and saw that the majority of its inhabitants were the poor, and I looked into Hell and saw that the majority of its inhabitants were women who are ungrateful to their husbands .†(Al Bukhari) Description of Paradise: Paradise or Heaven has eight gates. This was narrated in an authentic Hadith compiled by Imam Muslim that the Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said “The opening of every gate is like forty years walking. One of the gates is called “Al Rayyan†for fasting people.†Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.) said, that Allah says in a Hadith Qudsee: “I have prepared for my good slaves that which no human eye has seen, nor that of which no human ear has heard, and nor that of which no human heart has thought of.†The Prophet (s.a.w.) then recited “No person knows what is hidden from them of joy as a reward for what they used to do.†(Al Sajdah 17) Castles are made up of bricks: one brick of gold and another of silver cemented with Musk (perfume), pearl and ruby are its floor, and saffron is its grass. Its inhabitants live (dwell) forever young and never bored. They will have Essah’s age, Ayyub’s patience, the handsome and beautiful face of Yousef, and they will also have Muhammad’s tongue (few words will have so many meanings). The description of paradise which the pious have been promised is that in it are rivers of water, the taste and smell of which are not changed rivers of milk of which the taste never changes, rivers of wine delicious to those who drink, and rivers of clarified honey (clear honey). (Surah Muhammad:14) As for Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.s.) and his followers’ river, it is called (Al Kawther). At-Tirmithi narrated that the Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said: “While I was walking in heaven I came across a river, its banks are gold, its mud is Musk, its water is sweeter than honey and it is whiter than ice.†More description of Paradise are to be found in Surah Al Rahman 47-75 and Al Waqe’a 11-40. Means by which to avoid Hell and guarantee Paradise: Everyone must pass over Hell’s fire, however, those who have taqwa (the fear of Allah, the restrain of guarding of one’s self from evil, righteousness, piety and good conduct) will be saved. There are actions which would protect one from Hell-fire. The best among these deeds are salaah and jihad or martyrdom for the sake of Allah the Almighty. It was narrated in a Hadeeth Qudsee, “The best thing my slave does that gets him closer to me is obligatory salaat, and then if he does the nawafil (supererogatory or extra prayers), I like him more. And if I like him, I protect his hearing and his sight from going to haram things and anything he asks for, I give him, and if he asks refuge from anything, I will protect him. I never hesitate in anything which I do except when I take the Muslim’s soul away. He hates death and I hate harming him.†(Bukhari) Rewards of Al Shaheed (Martyr) according to the Hadith (Tirmidhî and Ahmad): · The soul of the martyrs dwell in Paradise whenever they like. · All the Shaheed’s sins and faults are forgiven with the first drop of blood that comes out of his body. · He sees his place in Paradise and Allah makes him intercede for 70 of his family. · He will not feel the grave trial: Martyrs are the only people who are spared the grave trial. · He will not feel the agony of death. · He will not be horrified by the Great Gathering on the day of Resurrection. · He does not feel the pain of the killing except like that of a pinch. · Allah will marry him to Hur-al-een. Finally, let us pray together to Allah to “Let us live Muslims and die Muslims without disgracing or subjecting us to temptations.†We ask You our Rabb (Cherisher and Sustainer) to give us a merit in this world and a merit in the here after, and to protect us from the agony of fire and make the agony of death and grave trial easy for us. O Allah! We ask You to raise the standing of Islam and Muslims and degrade the standing of Al-Kufr and Al-Kafirin. May the blessing and peace be upon our Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.s.), his family, his companions and followers.

I had numerous cases of islamophobia.......but only one of racism. But that incident was so ****** i wasnt even offended........I just laughed and walked away. I was walking toward my house when I passed a group of young guys smoking and horsing around. But before I reached them i could tell that they were talking about me but I ignored them and just looked ahead. Just as I passed them...one of the guys yelled "hey Ni99ger...arent u hot under that thing?". I turned around....and the person who said it was my neigher and he was a mix of a black father and a chinese mother. The rest of the guys were white....but it seemed surprsing that he was the one who said that.
