  • Bismillah-- Well I guess I'll get things started... welcome to the village! InshaAllah we will have good discussions here. I started the village because there are too many people who don't put salaat as a priority in their lives. It prompted me to write a journal about it, but I want to do more... I want to discuss and interact and encourage others. So what do you do to keep active in your daily prayers?

    April 17, 2006 at 12:38pm
    I agree! Many people think of Salaat as just a ritual having no practical significance to their religion or faith which is very sad. I suggest you post your journal entry her...
 
  • There was an article in 16Apr06's Boston Globe that claimed the job market for MBA grads is picking up and most graduates are having no problem finding work with an average starting salary $80,000+. Of course it didn't detail the previous backgrounds and work experiences of the people interviewed. I will be done mid July Insha'Allah and am having a hard time even knowing where to start looking. My MBA is a generalized one for those working in technology industries. Up until now my work experience has bee... Read More

  • Arthur Ashe, the legendary Wimbledon player, was dying of AIDS he had gotten from infected blood he received during a heart surgery in 1983. From world over, he received letters from his fans, one of which conveyed: " Why does GOD have to select you for such a bad disease " ? To this Arthur Ashe replied: The world over 50,000,000 children start playing tennis, 5,000,000 learn to play tennis, 500,000 learn professional tennis, 50,000 come to the circuit, 5000 reach the grand slam, 50 reach Wimbledon, 4 to semi...

  • Moin Khan was in Phoenix this past week visiting family. Since I knew the family, I had the pleasure of hanging out with our world cup winning hero. A very dynamic and fun personality to be around indeed! I believe Rashid Latif and him are in the US representing Islamic Relief in an effort to raise funds for the South Asian earthquake victims. Check your local events!

  • --- Jeans for muslims --- A company in Italy has designed jeans specifically for muslims. Here are some excerpts from the article: A new line of jeans designed by a small company in northern Italy caters to Muslims seeking to stay comfortable while they pray. "As far as we know we're the first, at least in Italy," said Luca Corradi, who designed Al Quds jeans. The bagginess is to ensure the wearer avoids stiffness while bending down repeatedly during prayers. The pockets are for holding all the acces... Read More

  • Is anyone going to the IMANA meeting in Beijing this year? The convention and tour around china look really incredible. Imagine getting to experience the rich history of China and the rich Islamic History of china with a group that caters to our Muslim food needs and timelines.

  • Salam alikom all, I was wondering for those of you who remember their start in the stock market, what was the amount of money you allocated for this? I dont have a $5K to play with. Maybe i'm thinking of a $1000, but then i'm not sure how much return will come from such low allocation. If I keep saying i dont have money to start this, i dont think i'll ever start. Do you have any hints or advise? Thanks alot and jazakom Allah Kheir.

  • I have recently started watching the Star Trek Enterprise from the start, and while watching it, I have realized that even though the acting was not at par with what the viewers had gotten used to, like in TNG or for that matter the original Trek, I really do understand as to why the acting fit like a glove specifically in Enterprise. As the first Earth ship to venture into deep space, there were many episodes as well as situations that had been dealt very easily in TNG and voyager earlier, but they couldn't... Read More

    There must be some direct linear relationship between being a trekkie and being an optimist. I haven't analyzed the shows (or seen Enterprise in a while). Interesting take.
 
  • AA. I was raised in the US my whole life but went to Saudi for Hajj last year. REading what you guys 'miss' from there... Sounds like you had some awesome times as kids playing and feeling safe there. There's something to be said about being amongst your own pple I think. I was raised in the US and we always felt that we were different as kids, looked different and definately a minority; get picked on etc. If you were to raise kids, would you want to do it there or here? Is there any reason you would c... Read More
