Why is this so?

A non-muslim freind asked me this..I tried to explain but found it difficult?
She asked...

why if Islam is such a 'fair and equal' religion is it permissable for a Muslim man to get married 2/3/4 times yet it isn't permissable for a Muslim woman too?

Many Thanks

How would you define a perfect Muslim?

•Someone who reads Namaaz 5 times a day
•Goes to the mosque to read Namaaz
•Reads the Holy Quran
•Learns about Islam, reading books and watching Islamic channels etc

How could we make ourselves better Muslims?

I was playing around with my CV last night…trying to figure out the best way to impress an employer….and how to avoid exaggerating and waffling.

Imagine if we had to write up a CV to impress God….what relevant skills, experiences, and references could we include?

Would our CV be impressive? And, if not how could we improve it?

Congratulations!
Today is your day.
You're off to Great Places!
You're off and away!

You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.
You're on your own. And you know what you know.
And YOU are the guy who'll decide where to go.

You'll look up and down streets. Look 'em over with care.
About some you will say, "I don't choose to go there."
With your head full of brains and your shoes full of feet,
you're too smart to go down any not-so-good street.

And you may not find any
you'll want to go down.
In that case, of course,
you'll head straight out of town.

Many sin nowadays are referred to as being “minor”, yes, some sins ARE minor however, we are told to avoid the small sins in Islam. Why? Cos it’s the small sins that pile up when committed continuously.

The Holy Prophet said “verily the example of those who commit minor sins is like a group of people who descended upon a valley. One of them brought a stick, and then another person brought a stick, and then another and another, until they gathered enough for a fire to cook their bread.
