What Did You learn Today?

MuslimSister —

Salaam

It is said that "knowledge is what you hear from the mouths of men as they only repeat the best of what they have heard"

I think it’d be useful to post tid-bits of invaluable information-religious/non religious here in this thread.

It can be stuff that you learnt in work/Uni/Mosque/in a talk/something a wise elder told you/a life experience or something that you suddenly realised.

It can be minor or major stuff. It has to be stuff that you never knew before.

Today I learnt…

1-Why I shouldn’t trust, join or think highly of the Sufi Muslim Council

2-It’s quicker for me to get to Uni by Car than public transport.

3-Rubicon Pomegranate juice is tasty and apparently very good for you.

4-Spending so much time typing on computers leads to illegible handwriting and poor spelling

5-Being in the spotlight on a regular basis results in a higher chance of insincerity in actions and can negate all good work.

Keep this thread updated regularly…

Wasalaam

Sometimes you've gotta be cruel to be kind.

That and everything happens for a reason.

hhmm Deja'vu

I learnt that…

-Ones peace of mind, happiness, feeling of security and contentment is VERY strongly linked to the way ones parents feel about them…particularly the mother.

-it is mentioned 800 times in the Qur’an to remember the name of Allah (swt)…and 8 times its mentioned that we should “do it in abundance”

I also learnt that the devil is sitting with an arrow targeted at our hearts…and as soon as our hearts becomes heedless with His (swt) remembrance, he attacks.

zarai found out the reason why some people were being nice to me, because it was ramadan. :cry:

i actually Classify those people as BIG Hypocrites!

sis, many people out thier are like that, they act nice to you because the think its ramadan and you've got to be nice and act religious, but what happens after ramadan, its not just during ramdan that you are ment to constantly prayer your five daily prayers, your ment to do that as a day to day basis.

I actually think they think that only during ramdan that is when Allah (swt) is watching upon you and thats when your deed are going to be counted and stuff, not realising that Alllah (swt) is always there watching over us.

sis, you let them just be nice to you during ramdan, you just remmber to always be nice, and InshAllah Allah (swt) will reward you!

I learnt my friend is obsessed with his nephew(only a few months old) being his protege... so much so that whenever the kids awake he steals the kid to play with it and wont put it down or give it up until its either feeding time or nap time. 😂

I think he's practicing parenting skills...

I'm learning more about contracts... which is funny because I'm pretty sure that's what I was learning about last time.

This is what I have studiously written down in my notebook:

"contracts are boring"

"i need new gloves"

Exquisite Fri, 3 Nov 2006 - 19:29

today i learnt why the school doesnt buy air freshners for the toilets, because they think we will spray each other with it or shove it and flush it down the toilet

my uni notes usually consist of my shopping lists

my sisters uni notes usually consist of draft revival articles 😃

i've got to the stage that if what the lecturer is babbling on about wont come up in exams or upcoming assignments-i have a right to switch off
