Salaam 'aleikum everyone, I'm just so excited, I'm wanting to tell everyone :) As some of you may know I said my shahadah in Ramadan last year, but didn't tell my family. My mom knows for a while know and she's accepting about it, though not enthousiastic, but no one else knew yet. Yesterday...

Just always check when it's not pure chocolate. Any chocolate with any kind of filling can be examined first if you're not sure. Better be careful than sorry

Salatul Doha: Its time is from twenty minutes after the sunrise till twenty minutes before Salatul Dhohr. It is a minimum of two Rak`ats and a maximum of eight. Um Hani Said, “The Prophet (pbuh) performed eight Rak`ats of Doha prayer with a Tasleema (the action of ending a prayer)...

Sorry, didn't mean that; I used pre-procedured to make things of chocolate. I should have a home-factory if I did from the beans themselves :P I do know how it's made: Ingredienst of edible chocolate: cacaomass (=crushed cacaobeans), sugar, extra cacaobutter and if you like, milkpowder for...

I'm a revert who didn't wear her hijab at first because of troubles at home. About not being taken seriously, I have never encountered that kind of attitude towards me, even without hijab, so I don't agree with that comment. The attitude towards me when I was without hijab was one of admiration...

chocolates haram?? I make stuff from chocolate and never came across alcohol in the ingredients!!! that isn't in the recepe! how weird.. it's different with chocolate liquors and those sorts ofcourse

Sounds like she needs an intervention... I think you should tell her parents. If she doesn't want to or cannot stop on her own or with your encouragement, maybe she'll listen when her own family tries to reason with her... Like stated above, it's illegal, both in shari'a and common law. Here...

You're right :) For the ones who don't know the trademark argument: [S]ince I am a thinking thing, and have in me an idea of God, whatever finally the cause may be to which my nature is attributed, it must necessarily be admitted that the cause must equally be a thinking thing, and possess...

Good ones :) I like the one of Shaw best. From whom is the lower statement?

No I don't think so. Not if there were no signs beforehand. Not going in on the America situation here, I mean over all. Representative government does represent the will of the people, but in the end they're just men who can lie and cheat just as good as anyone. How often are electionary...

I thought there was 'something'... very vague... I had no real concept of it. I always felt there was something like a higher power. Therefore always very interested in religion, like I said. I was searching what that 'higher power' was that I felt was there. I found it in Islam eventually :)...

@ Shaheerpak; thanks for the list! :) Here too, I've seen at the beach women in full hijab while the men (their brothers, father, husband) wear speedo's into the sea :confused: One guy even said that men don't have to abide by the rule of covering up, that it's only for women :( We are...

[B]a) Elise [B]b) Netherlands [B]c) female [B]d) none [B]e) Ramadan 2009 [B]f) Reasons; 1) Always looked for a religion that felt right. I went through a lot of religions from the age of about twelve; the beliefs of the old Romans and Greeks, old Viking myths, Judaism, Christianity in a...

Thank you all very very much :) All your support, advice and the sharing of your stories helps a lot. I needed to feel strengened in my opinion on wearing hijab etc. and your responses helped :) Thanks everyone and good luck to those girls who are in a similar situation to me. I'll make dua...

thank you for all the support. I think I will have a talk with my mother soon. Make her see that this is really really REALLY important to me. Insha'Allah that will help. I'll let you know in due time.

Thanks for the film, I had already seen it, it is very good :) but unfortunately no help with my mother... and that's the problem. She doesn't believe in God, any God, period. Only in people. So, Bible-arguments don't help, safety-arguments don't either... I already dress modestly in general...

Sorry I accidentally posted it in 'Sisters only' at first, so I copied it here, didn't know how to move a post... Salaam 'aleikum, I have "joined" Islam, so to say, about half a year ago. Now I want to wear proper hijab but am troubled at the same time... I have worn it a couple of times...

now that's interesting (about hair deyeing your hair).... better be sure like you said

Hiyaaaaaa, assalamu 'alaykum, Just an update in my story: Told my mum about me being a muslim... and..... she took it well!!! :D :D :D no fighting, no arguments. I'm soooo happy :D:D she just said it was my choice and that she respected that because she trusts me for doing the right...
