May 17, 2005 at 10:38amwould you guys say that in desi culture, looks are more so important in a relationship than let's say arab culture? if so, why do you think that?

My love for you has driven me insane I wander aimlessly the ruins of my life my old self a stranger to me Because of your love I have broken with my past My longing for you keeps me in this moment My passion gives me courage I look for you in my innermost being I used to read the myths of love Now I have become the mythical lover --Jalaluddin Rumi (The love poems of Rumi by Deepak Chopra)
June 4, 2005 at 10:56pmIts awesome... I believe the verses can be interpreted in either way, love for a person or love for God.

Recently, I had a debate with someone regarding the topic of whether it is "Haram" to have pictures of "people" in your home or on the walls. This topic and similar ones have come up more than once so I thought I would solicit people's opinions on it. In fact, since it came up on another journal (whether or not it was okay to paint pictures of animate objects) to which I responded to I am going to paraphrase my very humble yet long-winded opinion on it here as well. I believe when considering any topic in... Read More
May 13, 2005 at 10:26amQuick question... where exactly did the concept of 5 pillars come from?? Who decided these pillars? I ask because the Quran itself is far more encompassing in terms of what it m...
May 12, 2005 at 7:38pmBut to be a post-modernist, one must talk complete gibberish... which I do all the time... AWESOME! :D

Hi Londoners, i hope you dont forget to vote on Thursday! Incidentally i bumped into tony blair today in a local park in kent, and even thought I generally dislike Blair some how i became mesmerised. I was shocked that Tony Blair, Gordon Brown and Clark were wandering around with no body guards and just a couple of camera men. At first i thought they were lookalikes, surely the PM wouldnt walk around with no security...so i went up to him, said hello and asked if i could have a picture and he said of course a... Read More

This has to be one of my best experiences EVER!!! I would highly recommend it to everybody!! You have to try it once. Although I had a bad shoulder afterwards....it was definitely worth the pain. I did a tandem skydive, with a whole ten minutes of training and that was it - up we went! If I had to do it alone, I would have backed out, but once you are hooked up to the instructor there is no turning back. Very cool and a definite must for everyone!!
July 26, 2005 at 5:52pmAnyone knows about Pakprncess786 otherwise I have to call my grandma in heavens to check for new comers over there :-)

Salam folks, its been a while since my last posting here on the village...as its been a bizzy month. Inspired by Suhaib's popular beef ribs entry...this one will focus on zabiha foods at popular places. There are a lot of zabiha friendly places and entrees all over Chicago and I figured that we can share our favorites so that we have more options when we are out and about. Check metromix.com for prices and exact locations..this is just a short list of my regularly visited places, please elaborate with your... Read More
August 9, 2005 at 8:40pmGhareeb Nawaz on Devon is VERY cheap and also really good. Go for the food, not the environment.

August 1, 2005 at 10:39pmIf its on Devon and its spicy, its probably Jumbo. A bunch of us went there a long time ago for the very first time (now its a regular place for us) and they made the food spic...

Is the best soap ever. That's no joke. My family has been using it for the past 5 years, and we've even tried to use other soaps, but nothing compares to Lever 2000. Its very mild and gentle. The best kind is the original. Go get yourself a bar today :)!

Mashallah! This was an excellent event! We go there early and met with former cabinet minister and now president of University of Winnipeg, Lloyd Axworthy and Maher Arar, Human Rights Activist, before the event started. They shared some interesting and valuable insights with us. Their speeches were very good and enlightening and both received standing ovations. Many elected and public officials were at hand for this event, which was good for Muslims in terns of having and establishing better public rela... Read More

If the U.S troops leave Iraq in havoc, do y'all think it will perpetuate a paralysis? Or do y'all think something positive will arise from all the troops leaving Iraq?

I know there is a lot of Beckham hatred out there, but lets wish David a very happy bday! Maybe 2006 he can complete his trophy case with a WC title.
May 5, 2005 at 4:18pmThe only effort Beckham puts forth is the effort to get his hair done right.
May 5, 2005 at 6:55amWhat's with all the Beckham bashing...i agree he hasn't been in good form lately...but you can't knock him for effort. He works tirelessly in most games and always does his fair...

One of my buddies told me to post this. Theres been too many to count, but i'd like to know some of ya'lls Bulls' playoff moments that bring goosebumps to your body. Even if the moment hurt the Bulls, please include. For example, one of my favorite moments was the John Starks' dunk back in 93.
May 3, 2005 at 10:57amWizards vs Bulls series reminds me of 1994 Bulls vs Knicks, of course without Jordan. How both teams took full advantage of home court. I think its gonna come down to 7 games or...

MR. SULU vs. MR. CRUSHER Would Wes the Crusher take down the mighty Mr. Sulu?
