Thought I may aswell start this off as all past members will also need to re-register.

Inshallah we will be a friendly bunch here, but expect many firework displays as we all defend our positions.

EDIT

Just to avoid confusion, I have written some guidelines to choosing a name.

Wasalaam

Sumaiyacan i just ask a quick question? you see, i have these pooey teachers at school and they like to give us work and textbooks wth the word 'allah' (in english) on it. is it alright to put it in my bag coz i sometimes put my bag on the ground, and also its so annoying coz my locker is at the bottom ,level with everones feet (acouple of inches above the floor, so can i put it in there? its so stupid coz one of shorter girls in the class gets the highest locker, and im one of the taller one and have to have the bottom one!

I wondered about that. Surely the word 'Allah' in English script should be treated like the same word in Arabic script, because in the end it is still a visual form of the same word (which is an oral form of the concept of the One True God, all His 99 names and everything which that entails).

But if the book is in a bag, it can be put on the floor anyway, right? I mean, it's not ON the floor, and is protected from dirt (assuming your bag is clean!). You can put a Qur'an in a bag on the floor, because if it's on a shelf, the shelf is on the floor anyway, right?

Why not add:

"Most courageous. Most generous", and, anything else you like.

Literally anything at all.

Self praise quite cheap.

In fact, did you know in Ramadan its free.

Alot of the Editorial board are either in higher education or have left already and work. Suffice to say there are still young peeps on there too who have college etc.

And life after education is no where near as easy as it first sounds TRUST ME. You'll find you will be faced with a whole different set of problems.
