Oxymoron

[rayray]

I'm an oxymoron.

I'm not the type to express my feelings.
I just want people to get me.
They don't.

To Self pity,is not me
But what's this I wrote?







I had a bad day....

This thread was quite interesting.

OK now I understand that oxymoron are two words that are paradox; completely contradicts the other (as Sis Val mentioned).

Nice word though. Lol

Assalaam walaikum,

Sweet Sister Asja we are just having fun. I posted because I read the word Musim in a news item. It caught my attention. I got silly with the notion of having a sex bomb celebrating Musim holidays. And now we are just listing silly word phrases that are totally contraditory. This is not a serious post. It is just a little laughter. Please forgive me if I have been rude.

dear sister

Jazzak Allah khair for your kind explination of your thread. Alhamdulillah, there was nothing rude about it, only I did not understood it well, that is why I asked the question.

May Allah reword you.

What does oxymoron mean? I know they use this term in America but no-one uses it here. And I thought the way it's pronounced is 'noxymoron'.

You do learn it in English literature/ Poetry section for GCSE

I read this on Facebook the other day and its a shame. How can you say "There is no God but Allah and Muhammad(salalahu alayhi wa salaam) is His LAST Messenger" and then say Jesus is the Son of God:astag:!! You cannot have your cake and eat it too! It destroys the very meaning of what Islam is, you cant live in both worlds!

As far as the beauty pageant, she is giving muslimas a bad name, she cant be muslim conserving her hayah joining beauty pageants...:astag:This is not the way of a Allah fearing muslimah! Allah truly knows best.

beauty pageants

SubhanAllah... I agree completley sister Shaheeda25, it's disgusting!! What is she trying to do? Pick a side and stay with it! Stop jumping the fence to please both sides. It's not right astagfirullah!!

Assalaam walaikum,

I have written in two other posts about young western educated Muslim women who are the rising stars of the West. We need to be cautious. These girls are given the best of the west. One young woman rewrote the Quran because she disagreed with the ayat of beating a wife with a blade of grass. Someone gave me a copy of the book. I trashed it. We see these women/girls in politics and public relations. They are lost. They have compromised themselves.
I am attempting my best not to be too judgemental. I just ignore these silly girls. What I would do if I could spend just fifteen minutes with these girls and ask them sister do you have a clue as to what you are party to? I wonder if they can read!!!

Time to chill.

i think we need Muslim women to step up.
why are there no good quotable authentic Muslim woman scholars in the world? seeking knowledge is obligatory upon women as well and there have been many great women scholars in Islamic history. How many Muslim women nowadays seek Islamic scholarship? I think female Islamic scholars would be a great asset to Islam and to muslim women.

P.S.
Sisters would say there are no Islamic unis for women. I can only say that need is the mother of invention. If there are enough women willing to become scholars, i see no reason why there cant be more Islamic unis for women.

Sister Kay: I saw some photographs of her on a dancing (?) pole. Was it she. I do not know. It was posted on the aol.com homepage.

This was posted on the people site..

Not even 24 hours after being crowned Miss USA, Rima Fakih was forced to defend herself over Internet pictures of her apparently pole dancing. But things aren't quite as scandalous as they appear, she tells PEOPLE.

"I was just being silly and jumping up and there were a few pictures exchanged," Fakih says. "I know it looks really negative but it's not really what you've seen. I didn't do anything wrong."

The "Stripper 101" promotion, she says, is an annual radio event focusing on female fitness and increasing female confidence in the form of dance. She was simply helping out at the event and didn't doff any clothing at the promotion.

"At the very end, we had all the women jump on stage and show what they've learned," she says. "Of course, the pictures won't show that. It was something where we were having fun."

The 24-year-old bested 50 other women to be crowned 2010's Miss USA Sunday at Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino in Las Vegas. She's only the second Arab-American to win the crown.

Fakih is used to defending herself, whether it's in the public spotlight or in the sporting arena. Not long ago she was lighting up her opponents on a New York basketball court and knocking volleyballs back at her opponents.

"And for the record, my fantasy football team did win our league," says Fakih, who entered the competition as Miss Michigan, proudly. "I beat 12 guys."

After growing up in a Christian community in Lebanon, her family relocated to New York when she was 7. Fakih lived there until moving to Michigan and eventually attended the University of Michigan

Sports Background
Fakih is relatively new to pageant scene, entering her first competition in 2005 where she took 5th place while vying to be Miss Wayne County in Michigan.

"My mom got her dream of her little daughter going from being a tomboy to a princess again," Fakih said, noting that in high school she played competitive basketball, volleyball, softball and participated in cross country and track.

But after that first pageant, she was bitten by the competition bug – her second and third pageants took place in South Africa and Dominican Republic. As far as entering the Miss USA competition, that wasn't really on her mind at first.

"It always seemed like such a difficult thing and so expensive," she says. "After college, I sold my car and used the money to enter Miss Michigan. After I won that, I was able to enter Miss USA."

Moving On
Already moving on from the Internet dustup, Fakih is now living in New York and focusing on her yearlong reign – and beyond.

"I'm hoping it will open such doors as the Ambassador to the United Nations or stuff that I've always wanted to do," she said. "And I want to use my position to take on that mission of [raising] breast and ovarian cancer awareness."

Next up: She'll compete in Miss Universe at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas on Aug. 23.
