I don't like this
!
I think mixed-marriages should be encouraged because they help different parts of the Muslim community to come closer together.
Winter is the Springtime of the Muslim. Because Allah (swt) has made the nights long for worship, and the days short for fasting!

How odd!
I might start an event for people who once liked ABBA and sometimes run late, with relatives in Gibraltar who listen to Sting.
The past is an old armchair in the attic, the present an ominous ticking sound, and the future is anybody's guess.

I think this is just so awful, actually I think it's disgusting.
How do you justify all this labelling and categorising?
Do you not have any events planned for Muslims from different sects? Or what about for those Muslims that are rich or poor?
I believe it is organisations like yours that create disunity in our Ummah. You think you're providing a service but I don't understand how you explain all this??? You'd think Muslims would be doing all they can to break stereotypes and misconceptions... not advertise and encourage them.

i dont think owts wrong with the bengi, paki, african etc marriage event bit cz there are muslims who only want to get married to their own race but its disabled, divorce, windowed bit i dont agree with, its frankly disgusting and very unislamic.

It made me laugh too, but I was also really shocked and a bit angry too, even though I'm not a freshie. It's still a piss-take, which then made me really angry about all the other groups, especially the disabilities one

Well that’s the backward mentality of some Muslims unfortunately. May the Lord guide us all. Ameen.

Extremely unislamic.
Even the bengali, pakistani, african bit is wrong in Islam. People only wanting to marry certain Muslims always has more to do with culture than religion. Even though there are people like that, they shouldn't have separate events at all! This organisation is extremely discriminative!
This stupid organisations previous post was about how they had found the perfect solution for women who are divorced or widowed... they should all become co-wifes! That is just so stupid and really annoyed me!

Those of you that were quick to jump on the bandwagon did you even bother to read the whole thing?
As for the term "freshy" i find it offensive. Why do you need to feel the need to label ppl. What coz they dont dress and talk like us stuck up britz who we think are more supervisor to them we have the right to call them names.
And those of you that find the term funny shame on you. Dont forget there are some ppl on this forum that are married to "freshies" so show a bit of respect!

Naz I did read it all and I still think it's wrong and unislamic to label and divide Muslims in such a way.
Did the disabilities, divorced and widowed one not offend you? We're not better than 'freshies' but we're also not better than divorced, widowed, disabled and whatever else Muslims they have in that list. Do those muslims not deserve respect?
Noor - I did try to email them last time but didn't get very far. Their site is crap.

Yeah i agree all Muslims do deserve respect but these events are not labelling they are merely bringing ppl who have something in common together. There is nothing wrong with that.
Ppl are quick to judge others but we should take a look at ourselves. How many of us are willing to marry someone of another ethnicity? How many of us will marry someone who is divorced with kids.
If someone says that we want to marry someone of our own ethnicity and someone who is not divorced with kids does that make them a bad person?
@Noor my parents are "freshies" and they dont find the term funny! Nor does the daughter of a freshie.

It would depend on their reasons. If it was because they thought they were better than someone of a different ethnicity or someone who is divorced with kids then yes IMO that does make them a bad person.
It is the whole arrogant 'we are doing you a favour' attitude that I detest. And this organisations previous post on an event for divorced and widowed Muslim females was full of it.

1 - i agree that there should be mixed events
2 - BUT you have to see reality, whilst us in the modern era are open to mix-race marriages, a lot of people will still marry withing the same race
its not as difficult, or thats the perception anyway
some mixed race marriages arent difficult, my cousins have done it and its worked well
but you gotta see both sides to the picture
and its not un-islamic to want someone from the same race
its un-islamic to discriminate against someone from a different race
by choosing someone from the same race doesnt mean your discriminating, you have to look at factors such as gettin on with ur parents and family, their customs and your customs, how easy it is to blend it etc.
im jus looking at things from diff perspective, not sayin im against mixed-marriages
The Lover is ever drunk with love;
He is free, he is mad,
He dances with ecstasy and delight.
Caught by our own thoughts,
We worry about every little thing,
But once we get drunk on that love,
Whatever will be, will be.

Though im too young to make any decisions like that, if the person was good honest kind muslim then most likely yes but then again i would have to think to myself would i have a genuine love for the kids and age is another issue i dont wanna marry some 10 years older than me.

I agree on this point however this reason is not very common. The most common reason tends to be cultural differences which i can understand.
What you mean your too young. Bet your mam has got her eye on some desi punjaban kuri
only jokin
yeah i agree with the issue on kids. If you marry somone who has kids 9 times out of 10 they wont take a liking to their step parent. The birth parent will be stuck in the middle. Do they please their kids or their wife/husband. This can put a strain on the marriage and before you know it theyr callin it a day.
The age thing well that depends on the person. Me personally i wouldnt have a problem marrying someone who was 10 yrs older but would NEVER marry someone who was younger.
