Just reading.
Don't know much about King Saul.
Wikipedia link too long.
Anyone know any islamically related stories to this King?
Dear all,
Just listening to the documentary called: 'Divine Women: War of the words'
Of course two of the women mentioned and discussed are Khadijah (ra) and Aisha (ra).
My questions are:
1) Aisha (ra) was the Prophet (saw)'s favourite wife. Is that phrase allowed to be said?2) Why do not hear much about any of the other wives?
3) Which leads to why is Aisha (ra) special in comparison to the rest of the wives?
The UK economy has returned to recession, after shrinking by 0.2% in the first three months of 2012.
A sharp fall in construction output was behind the surprise contraction, the Office for National Statistics said.
A recession is defined as two consecutive quarters of contraction. The economy shrank by 0.3% in the fourth quarter of 2011.
BBC economics editor Stephanie Flanders says it "adds to the picture that the economy is bumping along the bottom".

The government has defended its housing benefit cap after it emerged London's Newham council was trying to find homes for some families 160 miles away
The council has been accused of "social cleansing", but its mayor said it was trying to find the best solution.

so, let's talk about something that isnt dailymail/lollywood related. something interesting that doesnt awaken by "i-just-wanna-annoy-you-with-this-reply" instinct. (even though i'm still wondering wether bats are halaal..)
Seriously.
Let's talk about us, the muslim youth. We're in the spotlight now, or we're coming to it. It's like a conveyor belt with a spot light starting about midway to the end. So the youth, we're on this belt and then the spotlight get shone on us. and then, we fall off the belt coz we aitn youth anymore.
So the spotlight moment, you might be in it right now, or you might be coming to it soon, the point is, what have you got prepared for it?
I just saw a link so I searched it on Google expecting to see really photoshoppy and fake looking pics and videos and sites explaining how it was a hoax, but actually I was really creeped out by the videos.
Just search Snake with a Human head in Malaysia, and there are videos and stuff.
Tell me this cannot be true, how is it possible?
If it is, does it mean anything? Is it anything to be creeped out about or is that just cos it seems so unnatural?
Food banks were almost unheard of just a few years ago - now they are being opened in the UK at the rate of one every four days.
For Kenny and Leanne Jones, spiralling debts caused by rising utility bills and high rents led them to the St Andrew's Community Centre in north Liverpool.
