    August 22, 2005 at 6:48pm
    Biggest irony is that this destruction of potential site that will lead to idolatry will pave the way for more money for western developers and more money for the sauds to spend...
    August 22, 2005 at 6:47pm
    Really twisted how wahabbis have managed to twist Islam into justifying the destruction of Historic Islamic sites that have survived 1400 years... So pathetic...

  • What is your favorite song with Madhuri in it? I know there are so many.. blah blah blah.. PICK ONE! I would have to go with ek-do-teen simply becaz it was the first song i memorized and the first song i ever danced to.. and lets not forget that i was a math major while in college. I want to say madhuri had a little somethign to do with that by insprising me through numbers at such a young age. :D ur turn!

    February 7, 2006 at 11:33am

  • Hey Guys, this is happening in the Bay Area. Can we call school boards, schools, etc or do something about it? www.sfweekly.com This article hilights acts of racism against muslim children in Bay Area schools. What enrages me is not simply the teasing and harrassing done by schoolchildren (I believe schoolchildren can be very sadistic and ruthless) but the blatant disregard shown by the guilty school districts.

    Mehnazmd: Yes, I'm not sure what would be most effective in this situation. I'm new to the Bay Area myself. I'm assuming that there must be some local American Muslim political ...
