May 24, 2005 at 12:21pmI suggest wearing a size bigger when you do so. Otherwise, the pressure can be discomforting on the body and lead to a rash. ;)

Is it just me or does everyone randomly recall people we have not met in ages. I sometimes even have dreams about classmates from eighth grade who I have never since then and probably would never see them again in my life. Are you reminded of old classmates or people the way I am?
May 11, 2005 at 12:42pmI do often think of people who I went to school with. Actually all my best friends are people who I have known since elementary school.....some even as far back as kindegarten. ...
May 11, 2005 at 11:16amAliya: you are funny...for some reason I just keep running into these things all the time :) Thanks for the compliments!!

Did anyone else see Kingdom of Heaven? I watched it twice in the span of 4 days (ok ok, I was dragged to see it the second time). It is generally very well representing of Muslims, and quite an interesting story, even though there are a lot of historic inaccuracies. Also, the actor playing Salah Al-din is a really good Syrian actor named Ghassan Masoud. He plays it quite charismatically! I think y'all should see it!
May 15, 2005 at 1:55amyah norah I did a search too before but couldnt find it....I have it I think on tape somewhere though.....

May 14, 2005 at 3:14pmSpeaking of ka3keh ba3gwyeh, does anybody remember that "Abou Yousef" song? I've been searching for it for almost 2 weeks and I cant find it.

Ok this supposed to be fun, you put up a literal translation of an english or Arabic term or phrase, and the next person should guess it or be able to translate it:) Example: What's up?=maza faoq? keef haluk?=what is your status? :)

Well I must admit, I had a rough time in Mashad cuz i couldnt communicate. And 'bebakhsi' doesnt take you too far especially when you get stepped on your toes. So plz 'edumacate' me atleast 10 important pharases that can help a non iranian get by.
June 16, 2005 at 4:56pmWhat is the punishment for bribing a 'maulana' to keep the khutba short?

Any thoughts? I dont know his biography, so no opinion yet, but many people were happy when he died.
May 12, 2005 at 11:58ammamad..I agree, some people mis take him and he was in no way supportive of currupt rulers.
May 12, 2005 at 10:44amSheikh Zayed certainly was a great man and many obituaries have been written about him. He is quoted as saying "Arab oil is not dearer than Arab blood."
May 12, 2005 at 10:30amThe (late - RIP 2004) Sheikh Zayed of the UAE (United Arab Emirates) was one of the inimitable Muslim leaders of all time. Although not elected through a public election process...

Sorry folks my Islamic schooling taught me that Allah is without gender. Allah has no mother, no father, no daughter no SON. That being true why did you get so upset that Allah was referred to as a her? Why not get upset when he is referred to as a He or male as well?
June 23, 2005 at 1:06ammyster atif...i wish majority of the people had the common sense you do =)

June 22, 2005 at 5:29pmwhat patriarchal? If Almighty chooses to refer to Himself as "He" then who is anyone else to say otherwise? common sense - yet not common enough...

Well was he? Were his sons good Muslims? Do you even consider them as Muslim? Did they consider themselves as Muslim? Would any of you liked to have lived in Iraq under their rule? Why?
May 14, 2005 at 4:28amSaddam was an evil man. None of the Arab countries did anything because he was fighting with his Muslim neighbour Iran. Thanks to Khomeini's stupidity and sayings, such as he's ...
May 13, 2005 at 9:59pmIt's funny when you mention these countries as having the strongest muslim armies in the world. They wouldn't stand a chance against any western country or Israel for that matter.

Has anyone ever sat and thought about the sacrifices their parents have made for them? Many of us are Arab Muslim Americans and most of us have parents who came from other countries to make a "better" life for their families. They left what is familiar to pursue a dream. Mother's day just passed and I was thinking about all the sacrifices both of my parents have made for me. AlhamdillaAllah I am very lucky for both of them. My father came from Syria to the United States with $150 and a dream of education an... Read More
May 11, 2005 at 11:32amMashallah Batta and Memy. We are very lucky Alhamdillallah.

Salam. Well, I have read some of the other posts and have to say that Nash does deserve MVP. Just like JKidd turned around NJ in 01-02, Nash turned around Phx. Except for Q, this is almost the same team Starbury had, and he took them no where. Point guards like JKidd, and Nash are hard to find these days. The are **important** to a team, and the most **valuable** asset of their team. Just like Shaq, and the great MJ, players are selected as MVPs because of their importance to their team. So in the e... Read More
May 18, 2005 at 8:49pmI think Wade will get his props next year.....he just came out of nowhere. But he's the shi@, starting to dominate. Nash had a great year...deserved the mvp. Philly h...
May 12, 2005 at 7:43pmwhat a waste of a journal entry. can we get back to the playoffs??????????????????????
May 12, 2005 at 7:05pmValid points but I'd still vote for Shaq...with Udonis Haslem, Damon Jones and an ancient Eddie Jones as 3/5ths of your starting rotation, you gotta be an MVP to carry them to t...

Having seen how another village on Naseeb with its 'liberal' claims is kicking out members whose opinions are not in consonance with the administrator, I, who is a liberal by all definition, would like to congradulate Aim786 for not resorting to such deplorable tactics.............I share next to NONE of Aim876's views but my 'online battles' aren't with persons or their belief systems...they are in essence with those who reject the ideals such as complete freedom of speech...liberal, conservative lables are onl...

May 13, 2005 at 8:56pmYa i agree with you, Rozaiba. I was banned once in someone's JE because I expressed views that were contrary to that person's views. Quite a coward, i'd say. So at least I ap...

Hope you have fun with this! Who are you? Everyone has a personality of a cartoon character. Have you ever asked yourself what cartoon character do you most resemble? A group of investigators got together and analyzed the personalities of well-known and modern cartoon characters. The information that was gathered was made into this test. Answer all the questions with what describes you best, add up all your points (which are next to the answer that you choose) at the end and look for your res... Read More

Poll in Nose_Pickers
Alright ladies and gentelmen, Lets be honest here. How many of ya'll pick ur nose on daily/weekly/monthly/yearly basis. Please share if you do so and how often;)
May 10, 2005 at 4:05pmArjamand, I think you've picked too hard or gone too deep. You mean "poll" not "pole". Picking is no laughing matter, especially when a pole is involved!

Do you think that our value system and actions are all learned behavior and aren't a well thought rational choice? Are most people conservative becaue they were taught to be like that? Are some people liberal minded because they were taught to be like that? What is your view of inconsistencies in behavior where people pick extremes for different aspects of life (Say a person prays five times and fasts but won't mind sleeping around also.)? Do you think that the person believes that both are right? Or does... Read More
May 16, 2005 at 6:39pmAngil, I think some people are strange enough to believe praying etc cancels out their other misdeeds (being nasty to others or sleeping around).. they know full well what they'...

May 14, 2005 at 2:31amim just gonna respond to the original questions. our value systems and actions are a mixture of both reaction and reflection(with the latter being the rational thought process)....

When it comes to booking parties, i quite often look for places where you can have a nice meal and then go to the club area for a boogie. However I dont know that many. Last year, I went to Elysium for my birthday, which was fantastic. Does any of you know any of such places?? What are they called and where are they in London? The ones I know include: Sugar Reef Embassy Cafe De Paris Ruby Blue Boardwalk Sway Let me know!

Hi - the job I saw which mentioned financial advisors is at www.aylesbury-jobs.co.uk I would send the recruitment agent an email/ CV telling them your situation, what you're looking for etc even if this job isn't suitable. Also be prepared to follow up with phone calls, far too many recruitment agents have a pile of 30 emails/ CVs and don't look at yours until you ask them to...and keep reminding them weekly to consider you for new jobs (some of them say every ...
