Hadith - Al-Tirmidhi #2028, Narrated AbdurRahman ibn Awf [Ibn Majah transmitted it.] Allah's Messenger said, "One who fasts in Ramadan while travelling is like one who breaks his fast when not travelling." I dont grasp it

Here is a good debate between 2 Sheikhs on opposite sides stating their case: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6f69GD27wDw

I agree and I see both sides of the debate. For the most part, the Quran states not to eat anything if other than Allah was recited over it. Most slaughter houses in America do not recite anything over the meat so in one sides case, I see where they are coming from where they feel they can eat...

Some Muslims only eat at places that state "Halal" while others eat anywhere since they believe all good food has been made lawful for us and we can eat from the People of the Book. Whats your take on this hotly debated subject.

I believe your fasting will not break if you dont wear hijab. You should however wear hijab to the mosque. Allah knows best.

I noticed some similarities too.. but there are many hostilities... Is it true they are to not eat halal food? I know they are not to drink or smoke, yet many sikhs are proud to out drink others as they drink heavily.

Yup... Im afraid of ppl gossipping about me being Muslim...

No need to say sorry... That was one of the reasons which pushed me to tell my mom... what if I did die.. I woudlnt want to be cremated (as my parents' hindu faith prescribes them to do)

Alhumdullilah ive been Muslim for 2 1/2 years. I recently got the courage to tell my mom. I feel now that at least one of my family members know, I can tell others or not hide it from others... But I tend to still hide my faith? WHY??? Today I was conversating with a co-worker.. I couldnt just...
