from those verses i am assuming that i should fast as normal and if causes me too much hardship then make the fast up? I am willing and happy to try to fast :)

salaam aleykoum all, i have recently been put on some strong medication by the doctor for anxiety problems/panic attacks. i was wondering would i still be able to fast ramadan this year? The side effects are quite strong (serious tiredness, dry mouth etc) and i worry this is going to make...

Its from The Sun they pretty much make up stories....especially about Michael Jackson.....

Wow...that poem was awesome, did you write it? JazakhAllah khair for this :)

I am sure the second half of Bible was written after the death of Jesus. Just for info....Jesus spoke Aramaic an ancient language that has gone out of use. The first part of the Bible, Old Testament would have been in Hebrew, as it is the Torah.

well my manager bought some sweets in today for Diwali and I ate them, they are sweets and harmless. I bring in sweets at Eid and everyone eats them. Sharing food is a nice thing.

salaams all, To be honest since i have reverted...i dread xmas every year. Its sooo relentless. Not only is it a minefield with the family but with your colleagues and peers; and not just because you no longer celebrate, but because you often feel like you are missing out! I had 26...

this happens in my husband's country very frequently :( As only 70% of population are muslims. I would warn people by word of mouth and report it to a local paper.

LOL!!!! I do get funny looks for taking my cup from the vending machine in to the loo....i bet they think i drink on the toilet! In Ramadhan i worry that people will think i am having a sly drink.....:shymuslima1: You know whats funnier....getting caught with your foot under the tap when...

:salam2: this was a nice post. As muslims we are meant to give to charity, pay our zakat....InshAllah the poor and needy will benefit from what we give.

Salams, I am not sure if you have HSBC in India....I am sure you do as they are a global bank. Anyway they are famous for their sharia banking facilities.

salaams brother, its good to hear your news. I find most employers are flexible. They just don't want to get into a situation where the employee is taking advantage. And I am certain that your employer knew you had truly honourable intentions which is why she was favourable to you.

Never despair, remember always that after hardship Allah grants us ease

MASHALLAH!!!!! Eid Mubarak to all my brothers and sisters!

How did you come to terms with the total upheaval of your life between before islam and after saying your sahadah? How did you come to terms with not being able to hang out with your mates who are into clubbing and drinking? I will be honest, its hard. I found my friends seemed to melt away...

Can you not attend Jummah in your lunch hour? Find a place of work within a fair distance of a mosque and you will be able to attend

Thank you so much, that was really really helpful. I would hate the idea of not knowing what to say and when. Now I have to go and buy a new outfit after work...lol

salaams brothers and sisters, this will be my second Eid. Last year I did not pray Eid prayer as I was still quite ignorant of my duties as a new muslim. However this year I intend to pray Eid prayer in congregation. I have one question.... how many rakahs in Eid prayer? thank...

Salaams sister, I too am frustrated by the 'text speak' it really angers me. When one speaks they say 'that' not 'dat' so why do they write it this way? I understand its a generational thing, but guys if you want to do well in life you need to communicate effectively and coherently.

salaams, I think your brother has lost sight of why we do ramadan. He needs to think about those starving, cos when maghrib comes we have a full fridge to run to and these people don't. I suggest quoting as much Qu'ran to him as possible....and maybe having Qur'anic discussions....just to...
