king_450 Posted October 4, 2003 Sister Latifah, as one of the brother(Zakariye) said, if the site is making you uncomfortable and un-ease to read , then you should leave, if it is relegious writings that is disturbing you , then it is necessary for you to leave at once, or don't read the islamic sites.And remember sis this little story that has been said 1400yrs ago, so it fits your judgement to leave this place, and here it is Take a look.... Now this is told 1400yrs ago!!!! * Camels will no longer be used as a means of transport; * People will ride on saddles that aren't saddles (cars?) * The distance on earth will become short; * Horses will not be used in wars; * Muslims will defeat the Byzantines which will end with the conquest of Constantinople Istanbul); * The Jews will gather again to live in Bilad Canaan; * Very tall buildings will be built; * The disappearance of knowledge and the appearance of ignorance, with much killing; * Adultery will become widespread, and the drinking of wine will become common; * The number of men will decrease and the number of women will increase until there are 50 women to be looked after by one man. * Islam will become worn out like clothes are, until no one will know what fasting, prayer, charity and rituals are; * Allah will send a disease to fornicators that will have no cure (Aids?); * People will begin to believe in the stars and reject AL QADAR (THE DIVINE DECREE OF DESTINY); * Men will pass by people's graves and say: "Would that I were in his place"; (large amount of sucidal deaths?) * The Euphrates will uncover a mountain of gold for which people will fight over (the river of Alfurat that lies near Syria); * Two large groups of people will fight one another, and there will be many casualties; they will both be following the same religion World War II?); * Approximately 30 DAJJALS will appear, each claiming to be the messenger of ALLAH; * Earthquakes will increase; * Time will pass quickly; * Afflictions will appear; * Killing will increase; * Wealth will increase; * Women will be wearing clothes but not wearing clothes * THE PROPHET (saw) SAID: "IF MY UMMAH BEARS 15 TRAITS (QUALITIES),TRIBULATION WILL FOLLOW IT." (DAY OF JUDGEMENT) SOMEONE ASKED,"WHAT ARE THEY O MESSENGER OF ALLAH?" HE (saw) SAID: * When any gain is shared out only among the rich, with no benefit to the poor; * When a trust becomes a means of making profit; * When paying ZAKKAT becomes a burden; * When voices are raised in the mosque; * When the leader of a people is the worst of them; When people treat a man with respect because what he may do; * When much wine is drunk; red wind or the earth swallow them, or to be transformed into animals." * 'IMRAN IBN HUSAYN SAID: "THE PROPHET (AS) SAID, 'SOME PEOPLE OF THIS UMMAH WILL BE SWALLOWED BY THE EARTH, TRANSFORMED INTO ANIMALS, AND SOME WILL BE BOMBARDED WITH STONES'. ONE OF THE MUSLIMS ASKED, WHEN WILL THAT BE O MESSENGER Of ALLAH?' HE SAID, 'WHEN SINGERS AND MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS WILL BECOME POPULAR, AND MUCH WINE IS DRUNK.'" THE GREATER SIGNS OF THE HOUR The Quran will disappear in one night, even from the people's hearts, and no Ayyah will be left on earth. (Some groups of old people will be left who will say: "We heard of fathers' saying "LAILLAHA ILLA ALLAH" so we repeat it); * The appearance of the MAHDI; * The appearance of the DAJJAL (Anti Christ); * The appearance of Ya'juj and Ma'juj(biblical Gog and Magog); * Isa (Jesus) will come during the time of Dajjal; * The rising of the sun from the west; * The destruction of the Ka'ba and the recovery of its treasures; * The smoke. If we could get arrested for being a Muslim, would the police have enough evidence to bring us in? Why is it so hard to tell the truth but yet so easy to tell a lie? Why are we so sleepy in mosque but right when the prayer is over, we suddenly wake up? Why is it so hard to talk about Allah but yet so easy to talk about nasty stuff? Why is it so boring to look at a Islamic Article but yet so easy to look at a nasty one? Why is it so easy to delete a Godly e-mail but yet we forward all of the nasty ones? Why are the mosque's getting smaller, but yet the dance clubs are getting larger? Do you give up? Think about it .... Just remember-Allah is watching you. There are no costs, but wonderful rewards.... Let's continue praying for one another. As we look at this article we realise how true the Messenger(P.B.U.H) was these signs were prophesized 1400 years ago!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xalimo7 Posted October 5, 2003 Well said, sister Latifa i don't know much about the Islamic section, and i can't forsee myself in debating Islamic section, but It will be very Wise sister to uplift those who are commiting misdeed to the good abiding muslims and if 1 like you leaves,who on earth will strengthen the lost crowd, so all i am saying is stay and give your advise till they drop their bad behavior.But if you can't see any improvement then u may quit , and allah will know that you tried ,but don't leave the lost souls in this limbo situation.

Mujahida Posted October 6, 2003 Asalamalaykum again Well after a few nights sleep I decided to stay. Many of my lovely brothers and sisters in islam encouraged me to stay. I ask ALLAH'S blessings upon you all ameen & the moderators too. Some have misundertodd me as it seems, I didn't say that I had anything against the Islam section never have I ever came across antyhing that made me feel bad in the islam section. I mean the other forums. When I first came here on S.O.L i came here to increase my Islamic knowledge and learn alittle more about my somali culture because i am half somali. Those were the things i wanted to gain and benefit from. Not how hot& cool it is to have a " Piercing" In someone's lip and some other topics i cannot mention. Latefah....I'm sorry to hear that you will be leaving us...If I am one of the people who's posts have offended you then I pray that you will forgive me. SubhanaAllah No u have never offended me in any way whatesoever. Please do forgive me if I ever said or done something to someone. King thank's for bringing that msg up. It is indeed many things that are going on todays answers. FiamanaAllah, Love you all for the sake of ALLAH , I hope that we can all make this place a better one by avoiding the haram and keeping the halal. If we cannot achieve that then we'll have to protect our eyes atleast I guess thats the only thing in our power. Masalama Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Valenteenah. Posted October 9, 2003 Lateafha, am glad ur staying among us. Its pretty obvious from the above posts that you'ld have been missed greatly had you decided to keep away from SOL. True, there are some useless topics out there, and if you get bothered by one, its best to just ignore it and move on. WLC back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
