What's the best vacation for a single guy? I just don't want to end up like a silly pickle on the beach with a glass of Diet Pepsi and a book. What do you people do if you were stuck taking a vacation alone... Where would you go, what would you do?
June 18, 2005 at 10:44pmscrew the casino man, go there, lay out, chill, get in the sun, swim, go to some shows, enjoy the food and just relax@

As most ?Star Wars? fans know, director George Lucas took spiritual elements, which are common in most major world religions to create his epic saga of good vs. evil. As a Muslim, I always thought of the ?Jedi? as what a true follower of Islam should be like. Never mind the fact Jedi masters with their North African style cloaks and scruffy beards look like Sufi Sheikhs, but they way they are taught to respect a greater power, fight for the defense of the innocent and honor a code of morals and ethics in order t...

June 18, 2005 at 11:04pmJoseph Campbell helped George Lucas with creating the storyline for Star Wars series. Joseph Campbell's work on Myth and Mythology is amazing and what makes a hero.

Why Arabs Lose Wars September 2, 2002 At lot has been written lately about why Arab armies so consistently lose wars with non-Arabs. These reasons also explain why Arab nations, and many other Third World nations as well, also have trouble establishing democratic governments or prosperous economies. A lot of it has to do with culture, especially culture influenced by Islam. Some of the reasons for these failures are; Most Arab countries are a patchwork of different tribes and groups, and Arab lead... Read More

Prefer big Ben with the fro or the corn rows. For me, the fro beats corn rows anyday.

Dear Virginians, After spending some months in your state (most of which I spent in your traffic), I have painfully come to the conclusion that many of you do not know how to drive. Being the generous and charitable soul that I am, I would like to offer a few simple pointers so that we may all eventually get to where we're going; 1) The left hand lane is for going fast. It is not for yapping on the cell phone, applying your makeup or gossiping with your girlfriend. Also, if you can not see over the steerin... Read More
June 21, 2005 at 4:13pmWhats wrong with driving fast, n weaving through traffic, thats the only way to get around. Muslim 101 LOL @ #4 and 5...so true!

Quite often single people ask, "how do you know if someone is right?" I know I wonder sometimes .. and often when you ask people who know they are with the right person, they will generally say something like, "well, i dont' know exactly--- but you just know." Now my question is to all the single people out there.. Do you just know? OR is the knowing in any way dependant on a list of reasons, qualifications or whatever?
April 8, 2006 at 9:11pmokay, i just joined this village so excuse the redundancy if my comment got posted again. to repeat my viewpoint, the 'right one' is someone in whose prescence you feel secure, ...

I will be the first Arab/Muslim American in position of Mayor in the State of NJ at the age of 30. Please stay tuned. Please visit my updated website at COUNCILMANKH... Read More

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) quoted God as saying: "Every action of the son of Adam is for him except fasting, for that is solely for Me. I give the reward for it." Fiqh-us-Sunnah, Volume 3, Number 107A "O you who have attained faith! Fasting is prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those before you so that you may learn self-restraint."
