how can it be a mosque...if it's being used for spectators to watch the olympic games? Sounds like a stadium. They're already making a stadium, if muslims want to watch live they should go sit with all the other spectators in the stadium, not build a mosque for that purpose?
The mosque is a place of worship not a sports ground :roll: Waste of money. Doesn't London have enough mosques already? All muslims wana do these days is build mosques in areas which are jam packed with them.
It would be better spent on a charitable project. Maybe the muslims have forgotten all those ppl dying in kashmir in their zeal for a state of the art mosque?
Sounds laughable, wind turbines instead of minarets. No dome a lattice roof. What about seating, will there be rows of fixed seats like in football stadiums. I suppose they're new innovative ways of seating the congregation in prayer :roll:
Good point... a little standoffish.
So I took a picture of myself and slapped it on an apology card!!!

Teen With Peanut Allergy Dies After Kis
SAGUENAY, Quebec - A 15-year-old girl with a peanut allergy died after kissing her boyfriend, who had just eaten a peanut butter snack, hospital officials said Monday.
Christina Desforges died in a Quebec hospital Wednesday after doctors were unable to treat her allergic reaction to the kiss the previous weekend.
Desforges, who lived in Saguenay, about 155 miles north of Quebec City, was almost immediately given a shot of adrenaline, a standard tool for treating the anaphylactic shock brought on by a peanut allergy, officials said.
An autopsy was being performed. Dr. Nina Verreault, an allergist at the Chicoutimi Hospital in Saguenay, declined to comment on the case.
The symptoms of peanut allergy can include hives, plunging blood pressure and swelling of the face and throat, which can block breathing.
Peanut allergies have been rising in recent decades. The reason remains unclear but one study found that baby creams or lotions with peanut oil may cause children to develop allergies later in life.
About 1.5 million Americans are severely allergic to even the smallest trace of peanuts and peanut allergies account for 50 to 100 deaths in the United States each year. Canadian figures were not immediately available.

Yuck... kissing after eating something with peanuts?!
You can only get away with kissing after eating certain things - otherwise it's just gross.

[size=18] Pakistan censors poetic salute to Bush[/size]
A poem in a school textbook has been removed by embarrassed education officials in Pakistan after it was found that the first letters of each line spelt out "President George W Bush."
An education ministry spokesman said it had no idea who wrote the poem nor how it found its way into A Textbook of English for 16-year-olds last year.
The acrostic is highly embarrassing for President Pervez Musharraf, who is already under fire at home for being allegedly pro-American and supporting the US war against terrorism.
America has even donated money to transform Pakistan's national curriculum into something closer to western ideals.
The result is a much-lampooned US-friendly philosophy called "enlightened moderation" which America has agreed to pay to disseminate in schools.
The official said the ministry was investigating how a series of committees employed to monitor and censor the contents of all textbooks failed to notice the acrostic.
The poem would not appear in the next edition of the book, he added.

EID 'EXPLOSION' WAS 'BAD TASTE'
OFFICIAL ceremony involving three Asian school children pretending to blow-up a high street has been condemned as "unbelievably insensitive".
Fierce criticism has been levelled at an Eid lights switch-on in Rochdale which featured the three children pressing a mock detonator with the word "BOOM!" prominently displayed.
The council-backed ceremony presided over by Rochdale Mayor, Councillor Ashley Dearnley, has been condemned by Asian community spokesmen and councillors.
The annual event took place in Rochdale's Milkstone Road, which is lined by Asian restaurants, takeaways and other businesses.
Said Mohammed Shafiq, the spokesman for the Ramadan Foundation, which tackles crime, including drug dealing, in the area: "If this was some kind of joke, it's the sickest I have ever heard.
"It was unbelievably insensitive, in today's climate, after 7/7, to have Asians, and Asian children at that, pretending to blow things up. Eid is a time of peace and charity, to introduce the theme of violent explosions in the midst of a Muslim community simply beggars belief.
"It shows the organisers of this event are completely out of touch with the feelings in the Muslim community, especially the young."
Councillor for the area, Mohammed Sharif, joined in the criticism.
He said: "I think to have a pretend explosion was very wrong, especially at a time when we are all mourning over the loss of life in the Pakistan earthquake.
"Personally I did not attend because I think the lights celebrations should have been cancelled this year in favour of further fundraising for the victims."
Councillor Zulfiqar Ali, who represents central Rochdale said the 'joke' set a "very bad example" to young people.
"This should not have been done. It sends out entirely the wrong message. What has explosions got to do with Eid? After what happened last July this was a very offensive thing to do."
But Councillor Dearnley said the critics of the ceremony were being "oversensitive".
"Sometimes we can see things that are just not there. These children were just switching on the lights they did not have explosives strapped to their bodies in preparation for blowing something up."

Guarding Girls Schools Not for Sissies
Arab News
RIYADH, 10 December 2005 — In some countries, mining is the most difficult job. In other countries crab fishing is the worst. In Saudi Arabia, being a girls-school gate guard is considered one of the most difficult and worst jobs: It brings a lot of suffering for a little pay.
Being a girls-school gate guard in Saudi Arabia is different than in other countries because of cultural and religious customs.
When people picture a girls-school gate guard here, they see an old man with a white beard. After all, to be a gate guard at a girls school you must be over 40, married, and accompanied by your wife who must work at the same school. You live with your wife in a cramped efficiency apartment on the grounds of the school.
The guards face many difficulties, starting simply with trying to contact school administrators on the other side of the gate. They usually call their wives that work inside to deliver any messages.
The wives of the guards are the only connection to everything inside the school. The wife also plays an important role when a student or teacher is released. It is their job to verify if the man waiting outside is a relative, father or husband.
Gate guards face another difficult problem when the girls are released from school at the end of the day. Their main job is to monitor every one of them, whether it’s a school of 50 students, or 1,000.
A female student is not allowed outside of the school until her father or relative is out there to pick her up. The guard sometimes threatens to use force to discipline students if they don’t listen to him.
Systematically, he calls for each female student, often by microphone, when the father or family member arrives. This system often turns to chaos when all of a sudden a dozen or so relatives are shouting at him to call for their daughters and sisters. This situation resembles an auction hall full of eager, impatient customers surrounding the auctioneer. Impatient relatives might snatch the microphone from him to call for their daughters themselves. This can end in fisticuffs between the gate guard and parents, or among parents themselves.
The biggest headaches for gate guards are teenage harassers. The guards tend to keep teens as far away as possible, even if that means using force. The most favorable time for teenage boys to visit female students is when they are released from school. This is the worst time for the gate guard.
The question remains: In this day and age, with such a low wage and such a challenging job who is going to replace these noble old men after they retire?

lol, I can't help but find that story really funny
"A true Muslim is thankful to Allah in prosperity, and resigned to His will in adversity."
[url=http//www.guidancemedia.com/videostream.php?id=Burda.mov]Quran[/url]
only time will tell i guess!
Maybe they will modernise the system...
That is a very inefficient way of doing things... and what if there was a fire? People would die.
They have taken an Islamic concept, and took it to its extreme. They are forcing beurocracy into places where there should be none.

[b]MP faces jail over anti-gay comments[/b]
Telegraph - 15/12/2005
By Colin Randall in Paris
A French MP faces jail and a heavy fine after being accused of offending homosexuals by saying they represent a "threat to humanity".
In France's first criminal prosecution under a year-old amendment of an 1881 law on press freedom, Christian Vanneste was taken to court by gay rights groups.
The modified law outlaws insults based on gender or sexual orientation and allows for up to six months' imprisonment and a £15,000 fine.
The public prosecutor at the trial in Lille said Vanneste was guilty as charged but made no recommendation on how he should be punished. Judgment on the case will be given on Jan 24.
Three groups - SOS Homophobie, Act Up-Paris and Sneg, a national umbrella organisation for gay businesses - joined forces to prosecute Vanneste after comments made in parliament were allegedly repeated by him to two newspapers.
Vanneste, 58, a professor of philosophy, regards himself as being on the Right of the ruling UMP party which has not supported him.
The MP, who denies breaking the law, protested in court that he did not say homosexuality was dangerous, but that it was inferior to heterosexuality and could, in extreme circumstances, become a danger to mankind.
[size=18]Bad Santas run wild in New Zealand[/size]
It may be the season for Ho, ho ho!, but a group of 40 people dressed up as Santa Claus has got police in New Zealand saying: "No! No! No!"
The Santas, many of them apparently drunk, went on a rampage through Auckland, New Zealand's largest city, raiding stores, assaulting security guards and urinating from highway overpasses, police said on Sunday.
The rampage, part of a movement known as Santarchy, began early on Saturday afternoon when the men, wearing cheap, ill-fitting Santa costumes, threw beer bottles and urinated on cars from an overpass, said Noreen Hegarty, spokeswoman for the Auckland Central Police.
One man climbed the mooring line of a cruise ship before being ordered down by the captain. Other Santas, objecting when the man was arrested, attacked security staff who were later treated by paramedics, Hegarty said.
The remaining Santas entered a store and carried off beer and soft drinks.
Changa Manakynda, the shop owner, said: "They came in, said 'Merry Christmas' and then helped themselves."
Alex Dyer, a spokesman for the group of Santas, said Santarchy is a worldwide movement designed to protest against the commercialisation of Christmas.

I think its a brilliant idea to build that masjid in london. I think ppl are a bit confused, its not being built for olympics, its only intended to be built next to olympic stadium.
There was talk for quite a while to make a new markaz as the dewsbury markaz is not big enough. So this aint a sports stadium that is being built as some people mistakenly thought. And normally the ppl here always go on abt how masjd should be more than just a place to pray, well thats what the new markaz is intended to be. It aint gonna be a leisure complex, least I hope not, cos if it is then tablighi brothers have gone way off. But it should be well designed markaz built ideally for service to deen.
