When listening to the Let's Talk show on the Muslim World, the guest on the show mentioned how the US was leaving Iraq in defeat and other Muslims seems to be of the same view too...

but is that not foolish to think the US is leaving in failure and instead never got exactly what it went?

Firstly its not a withdrawal (as there are still 50,000 troops there and some permanent bases have been built...) and secondlt, I would question wether it really is defeat too.

To assume that it is losing in failure, you have to assume or accept that America is not getting exactly what it wanted in Iraq - a state of general chaos.

One of my amigos rang me today, I hadn’t spoken to her in a while – it’s kinda cut down (actually it's cut down a lot) since she decided that she wanted to ditch London for Manchester (why oh why oh why?) after she and the Mr. got pronounced “man and wife”.

It wasn’t a long conversation either, mainly just a quick catch up and stuff. But one thing that I didn’t expect from her was asked: “so when are you getting married?”

You what?! Marriage is cool and all but I just finished uni man - Said I (in not so many words - I think I said "Ah whatever" or something)

Someone sent me this,and i really really liked it. I thought I'd share it on here.....

Someone sent me this on an email. I really liked it, and thought i'd share it here....

Just imagine a fairy tale - a tale in which everyone starts to be good.

They may not be perfect, but they "be good".

That would be a wonderful world wouldn't it? Or would it?

If you are really security conscious and just one antivirus program for your PC is not enough, surely instally two will be twice as good, right? (wrong - they conflict and can cause great harm where they fight each other instead of viruses potentially allowing them trhough and slowing your system down greatly.)

Some times people can try too hard in things and this can lead to unnecessary hardship.

i have exactly the same problem. But never thought about posting anything…

I’ve worn an Abaya (permanently) before – during my first year of uni actually, but after a couple of glitches I had to revert back to wearing ‘normal’ clothes and since then, even though I do consider wearing it again (in fact I had some tailor-made recently) I sort of feel like my ‘normal’ wardrobe will be wasted (yes it could possibly be my nafs talking).

I mean I do wear the Abaya but it’s really not a solid thing, I wear it to the Masjid or at home (beats having so many fiddly bits when relaxing) or even when I go out sometimes. But..
