Faheema. Posted July 22, 2003 Has it come to this? I was searching through Google looking for an author of a book called “'Lions Don't Need to Roar'” and by chance (probably 1 in a million) I had stumbled across these two websites. At first I thought it was the same person then I looked at the flag and the caption “Proud of being Pakistani”. I thought.. :confused: :confused: This isn’t the first time I came across this, infact right here (SOL) in the poetry section I have seen a lot of poems being posted and people are claiming it as their own even though the same poem is posted in www.poety.com by the original author. So, I ask you, could this be too much of a coincidence or just plain plagiarism. You decide… web page 1 web page 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Iffah Posted July 22, 2003 Hmm..I think not! Xoog badanaa gabarta :rolleyes: ...she didn't change a single thing :eek: At first, I wanted to believe the guy was the culprit...didn't want to think she'd stoop that low...but sadly...it's true. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Instinct.Poet Posted July 22, 2003 To be honest, I'd let the brotha slide with it. Though it may not be healthy to steal or either Barrow some ones lines and make them yours. If someone lacks the ability to be creative or informative with the words, maybe it shouldn't be pushed, after all is a talent some possess from Birth(Really?) No i'm just kidding , go ahead and barrow all you want to, but aftermath of being cought is really shamefull.Damn..Wouldn't it hurt,? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Faheema. Posted July 23, 2003 Lucky. I am not “exploiting” anyone they did that themselves the minute they copied and pasted, but you’re right we don’t know who the real culprit is so we shouldn’t judge. illmatic. Of course, it could happen, 2 people can write identical statement word for word or couldn’t they… . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rahima Posted August 6, 2003 ’Abdullâh ibn ’Umar radiallâhu ’anhu relates that the Prophet (s.a.w) mounted the pulpit and said in a loud voice: “O you who have accepted Islâm with your tongues, but in whose heart îmân (faith) has not yet entered! Do not annoy the Muslims, nor revile them, nor seek out their faults. For whosoever seeks out the fault of his brother Muslim, Allâh will seek out his faults. He whose faults are sought out by Allâh, then Allâh will expose him, even if he is inside his house.” Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Macalin Posted August 6, 2003 Shayma, Whats Ur POINT? Are YOU saying SUDI plagiarised the Material from the PAKI? How sure Are U?-Do u know Her?(is sudi even a GIRLS name?-i know sudis to be dudes!) Personally i dont see a PAKI putting all those words without an Accent or some kinda err-its just too well written for a PAKI, on the othr hand, i see a somali writing better! Mizz Unique,U shouldnt Jump on conclusions-U generalised too much to say all soms! cheat u know tha aint right BOO! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
