Ok this happened last year, it was an interview in the Sky Centre between Tim Marshall and that Omar Bakri Mohammed guy (the one they wanted to kick outta the country, I think he left while his family stayed).

Anyway, i can remember Marshall saying all this stuff to Bakri about anti-UK etc etc n why u living here, ur family on benefits etc but then he said "and what about the verse in the Qur'an which says that when the end of the world comes, even a tree will say there is a Jew hiding behind me".

At that time I was halfway thru the Qur'an translation and hadn't read that.

[color=indigo] A Sudanese man has been forced to take a goat as his "wife", after he was caught having sex with the animal.

The goat's owner, Mr Alifi, said he surprised the man with his goat and took him to a council of elders.They ordered the man, Mr Tombe, to pay a dowry of 15,000 Sudanese dinars ($50) to Mr Alifi."We have given him the goat, and as far as we know they are still together," Mr Alifi said.

Mr Alifi, Hai Malakal in Upper Nile State, told the Juba Post newspaper that he heard a loud noise around midnight on 13 February and immediately rushed outside to find Mr Tombe with

Us Mancunians will probably see this as hilarious. Especially at the jibes that it is always raining here. (well it has been snowing on and off tha last few, sarated by rain...)

But in southern England we may have the worst drought in the last 10 years!

There is already a hosepipe ban suggested, and it is possible that the watersupply to homes may be shut off for periods of time during the day!

London's mayor has been suspended from office on full pay for four weeks for comparing a Jewish journalist to a concentration camp guard.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/4746016.stm

pls share your thoughts:

should he have been suspended?

or was it injustice?

is this double standards?

are the jewish community protected by the law and other faiths arent?

where does this leave freedom of speech?

is 'everything' now labelled as antisemitism?

The title was gonna be 'Holocaust Denial - - everyone does it', but I like this one better.

So... today I watched House. Pretty good.

Thenturned over to question Time. It was so, so.

But then the question came about that historian (Irvine?) who denied the holocause in 1989, and has not been sentenced to three years in prison.

Everyone gave thoughtful answers.

Thank God for em - just survived a battery of examinations and papers and I decided to make today "nothing day"

Oh boy... it's been great.

I haven't left this room (had lunch delivered) ALL DAY

I stole World of Warcraft from one of my roommates (the one I never see) - anybody see that game? It's amazing, I can see why geeks lose their existence to it... there are dragons and dinosaurs and wizards and stuff!!! It's magnificent!

I need to schedule more of these lazy days.

good topic I think.

especially when you get to the theories.

Many of us (esp me) spend months with Allah (swt) on the prayer mat when they want a need fulfilled.

But when one gets what they want do they spend half that much time thanking Allah (swt) for that blessing?

The story that’s often narrated in the Sufism thread touches my heart because….

A teenager was hit with an £80 fine for using the F-word while talking to his friend.

Kurt Walker was asked by his companion what he was up to and replied: 'F*** all, mate.'

But the private conversation was overheard by a police officer, who promptly handed a him a fixed penalty notice.

If we were to fine everyone £80 for using that word we could solve the national debt

However, the 18-year-old is refusing to pay the fine – the same punishment as that dished out for being drunk and disorderly, stealing goods worth up to £200 or causing £500 damage.
