Assalamualaikum I am visiting Milan for business and I see that in Centrale Stazione there are a lot of Muslims. First I was happy to see many Muslims but I found out they are actually refugees. They have no place to stay so some live in the station area. Masha Allah that is so sad. Has any...

Assalamualaikum I realize that when praying esp during last tashahhud when we sit in tawarruk position (left foot out to right, right foot upright), I feel the left side of my back in tension. This is because the body tend to lean to the left. Do any off you feel the same way and has it...

What Islam requires for women is to cover everything except face and hands. It has to be loose, not transparent, not similar to men or nonMuslims etc. That's what's required. How you fulfill these requirements is not specified, and may depend on culture.

Assalamualaikum I will insha Allah be visiting Milan for 2-3 days. If I have the time I'd like to visit the Muslim community or masjids there. Does anyone have information?

Assalamualaikum sister babyphat I know there are thousands of Indonesian domestic workers in HK. MashaAllah they are mostly Muslims and they have their own da'wah and halaqas. I went about in HK on a Sunday and mashaAllah there are muslimahs in hijab everywhere. There are also Serving Islam...

:salam2: As we know, Rasulullah Muhammad SAW married Khadija RA who was 15 years older than him. It is a beautiful story of our Prophet's first love. I still think this is rather extraordinary since we are repeatedly conditioned that the men should be older. Do you brothers and sisters...

:salam2: Here in Los Angeles, especially in the popular shopping areas, like near Santa Monica Beach, there is soo many Muslim tourists! In my years here I've never seen so many of them. Perhaps the anti-Muslim sentiment in Europe made them come to America. They can still wear hijab and niqab...

I do not have any comments about this, but the above quote really interests me. I apologize if I haven't followed this forum that closely, but I do know sister JenGiove is quite a regular here. But to clarify, you do not consider yourself a Muslim yet?

I didn't think the thread would go this big. Jazakallah for all the responses. Alhamdulillah each time I am tempted to do haraam, there is that voice that makes me think twice. Regarding mixing, it is a tricky and complex issue. There are many controversies about segregated masjids/prayer...

Jazakallah ukht samiha, That is why sometimes I wonder if I am too strict. Indeed the people I see are college age. While I do try to think positive about them, sometimes I think maybe I should get more friends both male and female. In all the times around the MSA I only know the names of few...

Subhanallah what a great story. I don't know much of South Africa, but I heard they have many Muslims there. I met a muslim family in an airport once, the husband in traditional clothes and beard with her niqabi wife. They said they are from South Africa, and both are very kind.
