i think im going to TRY to go dormant for the next two months. i dont know how that's going to work out but im going to miss y'all.

especially all our cute lil newbies!

Me and Hummus and GD and... oh that's it. well y'all feel like an actual team but there's only three of you!

well, after exam we'll have fun coz Nasheedgirl said she's coming back inshaaAllah. you three are going to like her i think. She's fun like you.

and there's also Valkyrie and Lioness of Allah. If they come back you lot are going to take over loool

Ok there's this non-muslim who randomly got hold of my email address, and since then has not stopped talking to me about- religion.

I deleted her twice, yet she seems to be determined to pop-up and ask whether "I'm busy" so she can chat.. urgently

The first topic of discussion was about 'covering up' and why muslims do it etc and then it was about 'consequences' and forms of 'punishment' if you don't adhere to a certain thing?!

One thing that is really REALLY ticking me off right now, is how would you go about explaining something to a  non-muslim?

I mean the only ever response I get is "WHY" ..

I was just sat here with nothing to do reading through a few old posts (as one does on a rainy dull Sunday Morning) and thought it might not be a bad idea to have an annonymous Confession Box style section on here.

I know a lot of people share stories etc about what's going on with them and things they want advice on etc, but what about those topics thta people want advice on, but don't for what ever reason want others to know it's from them?

Not that I have anything such like topic to get off my chest, but I just thought it might be a good idea?

Who else has though we should have something like this?

Well, i came home and my little brother, (he's three years old), was dying to read the Quran. Its colour coded and each manzil has its background colour,and obviously, to him, its very interesting and fascinating.

Im suprised why he asked for it so instantly and he told me that in his day-care nursery, they had prayed Jumuah today and the teachers had made him take his shoes off, so he had absolutely loved performing the actions and he'd been a good boy today! (Apart from when one of his teachers said she'd told him off for kicking the toys LOL)

So, it got me thinking. It's pretty obvious that having certain experiences and opportunites at such a young age, will help him to become a better Muslim when he grows up i'A. 

This is an amazing piece i just read by Yasmin Mogahed. Please read

This is Awakening

who defines those except yourself?

if you got offended by my previous sig. abt adults being the ennemy. that means you consider yourself an adult? that means you DID fall in that category. I had that sig well after i turned 18. do i consider myself an adult? no.

an adult is someone who never questions that maybe THEY are wrong. who always sees the wrong in others and never give people a chance. who are stubborn in their way and dont want to change.

and loads of other stuff. that i cant be bothered to post right now.

adults suck. exceptions apply. like anything.

Someone asked me a very good question. They asked why Muslims are required to pray in a certain way. I gave it some thought.

The easy answer of course would be, "This is how we were commanded to pray." This is a sufficient for the Muslim. However, when you are dealing with folks who are new to Islam or just learning about Islam, it must be explained in different ways. There is no one formula when giving dawah. People are different and life is fluid. You must adapt. Moreover, dawah isn't all about just giving your typical, predictive lines. It's give and take, and part of that taking, are questions.
