The Lover is ever drunk with love;
He is free, he is mad,
He dances with ecstasy and delight.

We worry about every little thing,
But once we get drunk on that love,
Whatever will be, will be.

One thing you may have noticed is people immediately turn to the Ali Wannabe article.

The front cover looks rather good in print aswell...

It looks abit upmarket for The Revival though...

IMO the worst designed page is the Editorial. And its the first age you see when you open the magazine!

it aint that bad

that page could have been a lil better but the Ramadan and Eid articles make up for it

we'll see what the feedback is....

well today people were turnin to Ali Wannabee....AND the Eid Not Weed one

i seriously think we should make that into one of them wristbands

how cool would that be? Dirol

aaah wat a load of jibberish! where does it make fun of niqabi's? was she reffering to the comic strip? even i dont approve of the comic strip, but thats coz i dont find it funny nor relevant

i think weve had a few people before declaring the magazine haraam even! some people are narrow minded and need to lighten up!....but thats jus my opinion

well ive asked a lot of people, and most like it...others are yet to read it

one sister was from the MAB, she was highly impressed.

i spoke to the MMU Isoc President, and hes had a few people comin up2 him sayin they were likin it.

theres a lot more feedback to come, we'll see....

My bro picked up a copy in his local mosque. I was impressed, the magazine made me laugh (in a good way Blum 3 ) all the way through. It was something that I could relate to for a change for I have little Islamic knowledge and was brought up by very desi parents.

So a massive thumps up from me!
