Assalamu Alaikum Everyone, Jazakum Allah kheir for joining this village and insha-Allah the discussions we conduct here will be beneficial to all of us. I am a revert to Islam from a Christian Background, and comparative religions is something I had to deal with naturally. When I go to visit my folks overseas, who are still Christian, I often end up getting into discussions and debates about Islam since it is quite misunderstood. I also have gotten into debates with several denominations, including Catholi... Read More

Ok heres the deal, 1)tell me your fav Rafi/Kishore Duet. although I am a RAFIAN, I must admit that Kishore was the second best singer of all time (Hey Kishoredas before you get mad at me know that Rafi sang over 26,000 songs and started before Kishore, who didnt start singing regularly till 1969 post Aradhana) My fav duet is Jaanu mere Jaan and Salamaat rahe Dostana Hamara and also I have a thing for Hum ko Tumse Hoga Hai pyar.... 2)Who's your fav, Rafi or Kishore. Keep in mind the different styles of songs ... Read More

1. If anyone needs a ride up to Hartford for the ICNA conference, let me know. I'll pick you up along the way. I'm coming from the Philadelphia area. ps. If you got a few bucks for tolls/gas, that would nice too. (Hey, man's gotta keep his costs down!) 2. If anyone is in the Hartford Area (i.e. New Haven) and has some floor space to crash on, that would be wonderful. My friends at the Yale MSA are all on vacation! I was thinking I may drive to Boston for one of those nights as well... As you were :)

NOW, lets flip the script, and vote on who, in your opinion, is the best MC from the clan. im not asking who's your favourite, or the most poplular memeber, but who is the most talented from them... ...the start it off, my choice boiled down to gza and inspectah. after some ha...

If you guys know anyone who works in Boston but lives some where else on the weekends (like me who works in CT but live in Boston on the weekends) and is looking for a FULLY furnished, bi-level apt to rent during weekdays, please let me know.

June 27, 2005 at 1:11pmI hated Creed as well, very generic and unoriginal band. I hated how the Christian teenagers flocked to the band.

I just read "The Broker" it was probably one of the best books I've read by him in a long time. The suspense and mystery was amazing. If you like his writings I highly recommend this one to all of you. I finished this book in 3 days because I just couldn't put it down.
June 24, 2005 at 10:47ami am a huge grisham fan, but sadly - i didn't care for 'the broker.' it wasn't bad - but i think i just like his 'law' books better. some of my faves by him are: a time to kil...

Beauty is that which attracts your soul, and that which loves to give and not to receive. -- Gibran in Khalil_Gibran
Before the Throne of Beauty One heavy day I ran away from the grim face of society and the dizzying clamor of the city and directed my weary step to the spacious alley. I pursued the beckoning course of the rivulet and the musical sounds of the birds until I reached a lonely spot where the flowing branches of the trees prevented the sun from the touching the earth. I stood there, and it was entertaining to my soul - my thirsty soul who had seen naught but the mirage of life instead of its sweetness. I... Read More
January 24, 2008 at 8:39pm"Beauty is that which attracts your soul, and that which loves to give and not receive." This I totally agree with because beauty does not receive love but beauty is what loves ...
