Aamir Khan

Salaam

Apparently there was an Amir khan fight tonight.

First I heard of it!

Amir Khan continued his superb unbeaten professional record by defeating Vitali Martynov in just 75 seconds.

It was the 19-year-old lightwight's first six-round bout but he needed just one, knocking the Belarussian to the floor with a flurry of punches.

The referee stopped the fight after Martynov was left dazed by two left hooks and a straight right from Khan.

That's very kind of you to offer, but two's company and three's a crowd - especially where tuition is concerned...

As for Talespin - I used to watch it every week when I got back from school! I think Disney went through a golden age during that time; Duck Tales, Talespin, Chip and Dale...

Family Feuds and Violence

Certain event happened today which got me thinking.

How common are family feuds?

What are they normally over and do they get violent?

There are some famililes that I have seen that at nearly every single gathering they have - birthday party, wedding, death, whatever - soooner or later somthing kicks off and theres either an argument or a fight.

I have to admit it does get a quite exciting - nothing like having an adrenaline rush at a normally boring function - but what does this behaviour achieve save the insult of ones hosts or the demeaning of ones honour?

Muslims In Prison

Salaam

In the eyes of God statutes are increased when one sins and repents…however, in our society sinners are looked down upon…even if they have repented and served their sentence.

I’m interested in Muslim women in prison.

In England we have 80,000 prisoners of which approx 10% are Muslims….and it’s sad that only a handful of prison volunteers are Muslim.

Why are we so overrepresented? Is it because most Muslims in UK are economically at a disadvantage compared to other faiths?

Educating MuslimSister

Salaam

I received a letter from the PGCE department confirming my place in the teacher’s training course.

BUT, before I breathe a sigh of relief, this offer is conditional…I have to pass a maths equivalence test next Friday in order get in..

So I have 7 days to revise for GCSE maths. I don’t know how I’m going to find the time…

I already have my GCSE maths…but since I got a pathetic 11/28 in the maths paper in the interview (which was 11year old standard)…I basically have to take another maths test to secure my place.

Politicising the Quran

Have a look at [url=http://us.news3.yimg.com/us.i2.yimg.com/p/rids/20060126/i/r1190056417.jp... pic[/url].

This man is holding open the Quran at a Hamas rally celebrating the party's election victory.

This 'gesture' is made in an Al Qaeda video too. One person holds the Quran open and a few other people hold klashnikovs in front of the Quran.

Muslim Brotherhood members do this also.

Cradle 2 the Grave

The soul in Islam is the ethereal substance — spirit (Hebrew:rooah or nefesh) — particular to a unique living being. The soul is both immortal and innately aware of its immortal nature, as well as the true basis for sentience in each living being.

According to the Qur'an of Islam (15:29), the creation of man involves Allah "breathing" a soul into him. This intangible part of an individual's existence is "pure" at birth and has the potential of growing and achieving nearness to God if the person leads a righteous life.

British Muslim Womens Identity?
