Not just stem cells in the bone marrow, although they are plentiful in number. All tissue types have stem cells including fat, muscle, skin, bone and even the nervous system.

Salaam ualaikum I think firstly it is important to differentiate between using autologous adult stem cells which I can see no reason for using, and embryonic stem cells, which I can see being an issue. Re: the post above, I don't know how it works in other countries, but in the UK we have...

Mash'Allah!

For me it has to be some of the research I've been involved in such as these orthopaedic implants which can lengthen by themselves: http://www.stanmoreimplants.com/product_5.php

Salaamualaikum! I've just come across this story that the brother of Britain's shadow chancellor (almost certain to become the chancellor by next year) has converted to Islam and is now called Mohammed! He's just married though and I fear that it's not good he was in a relationship for so...

Ah right fair enough! Actually a pharmacist once gave a lecture a couple of years ago about Islam and creation in a debate with a humanist. Alhamdulillah he was a very good speaker! I'll ask brothers at the Masjid tomorrow who he was as they were there at the lecture too.

The USA (with Malaysia and Pakistan) were there not too long ago...

If it is the will of Allah :D what is stopping you? :)

Mash'Allah! This is a great story :) Sure, Islamaphobia has been rife in England and Wales but from what I've seen community relations are really improving as Islamic integration is expanding outside of the traditional Islamic cultures. Again, it's up to us Muslims to set an example to show...

It's documented hysteria. H1N1 is here and can kill and the best way to treat is through prevention. What is sad that when these sorts of things can be prevented, people choose to believe this kind of conspiracy that vaccinations can control the population or that it's the Illuminati and forego...

Speak to your doctor about it! Your doctor will come across this situation all the time and will be able to explain to you everything you need to know about the vaccine. Never take medical advice from the internet! (I'm aware I've just made a post above which may be perceived that I'm giving...

The research behind vaccines and autism is highly flawed. There is no statistically significant association between any vaccination and increasing the risk of autism. This happened in the past 10-15 years in the UK for people not taking MMR vaccines from a doctor who conducted flawed research...

Alhamdulillah my Iman is growing all the time but with the nature of my work, I find it hard to pray at the right times and have to do a lot of make-up prayers later. I fasted for the ten days leading to Eid, but then was alone at Eid. Well, I always had Allah :D Keep up the good work :) you...

That quote reminds me of once when I was living in London and a tramp asked me for a spare 20p near King's Cross, then he tried to make me feel guilty by saying 'it's nice to be nice' and as I walked past him I heard him mutter 'it's nice to be drunk..'

It's very sad that common thievery, sexual abuse and everything else happens in an age where we can split atoms, send people into space and transplant hearts. Insha'Allah we can use Islam to solve these problems :) Alhamdulillah it was partly through brothers and sisters such as yourself who...
