how do you explain it to them? that its wrong? im trying to tell her the story and explain to her why we dont celebrate it etc.. but xmas is so gliterry and heartwarming through this so very cold spell that attachment just forms and it just wins little heart over.

i just got home from picking my lil sister up. havent even taken my coat off yet.. im a lil bit annoyed that it's IMAAN who gave her the first xmas card. kids these days..back in my days you didnt get cards in YEAR 1. do people have money to spare or sum'in?

duah it is.

what abt the xmas play? lol

and all those so-very-wrong-meaning songs, i dont mind them... trying to get them out of her head by playing nasheeds at home instead LOL.

What I mean by the title means is can non-Muslims show actions and thoughts which are taught in Islam and is it wrong to take advice or inspiration from them?

I commented over here http://www.therevival.co.uk/comment/198199#comment-198199 saying

Guys please make dua, my really really really close mate just found out her mums got lukemia...request for duas...

Jazakallahukahiran.

I guess i have to move on, but i don't want to, cos i'm comfy where i am. I don't want to change my little bubble because it's mine.

Growing up is seriously scary.

Help??!?

Been a long time since I posted on this website.

Couldnt sleep last night with so many thoughts racing through my mind, I wanted to get up at half three in the morning to post on here what I thought might help me sleep. However, I turned my body to face the left of the bed, closed my eyes and must have fallen asleep. I have heard that sleeping facing that way is not recommended. But Im not sure so if someone can correct me, Id be grateful.

1) Give Allah what’s right, not what’s left.

2) Man’s way leads to a hopeless end Allah’s way leads to an endless hope.

3) A lot of kneeling will keep you in good standing.

4) He who kneels before Allah can stand before anyone.

5) In the sentence of life, the devil may be a comma, but never let him be the full stop.

6) Don’t put a question mark where Allah puts a full stop.

7) Are you wrinkled with burden? Come to the mosque for a face lift.

This is totally worth watching.

I've been decluttering stuff left right and centre.
Alhamdu lilah, what a joyous feeling !

I want to share a recent personal experience
with you.

So I've got 2.5TB worth of external hard drives.

I bought a program that finds repeat files so that
I can delete them.

Turns out that I had repeat files on them AND
on my MAC (which is another 2TB)

So that's about 3 TB of repeat files !!!

A while ago, I knew a chap called Charlie. I knew him really well. So well that I knew about him more than he knew about himself. He also knew about me more than I knew about myself.
The days and weeks of being close lasted for a very long time. Then one dull Sunday evening over nothing too serious it all ended. I didn't see Charlie or hear from him for a number of years. This weekend he contacted me out of the blue. Sat me down and revealed something to me. I don't know if I was shocked or pleased. If I was happy or angry.
He had gone and done some seriously illegal stuff, but done it all as me. Set up the business account in my name, the bank account in my name and had amassed a small fortune in my name.

Light of creation, oh light from Allah’s manifestations

We look towards you with high expectations

You are the Prophet for all of the nations

A gem you are, a bright light

It amplifies and radiates throughout the night

Across the world, your radiant light shines so bright

Ya Nabi we salute you day and night

Countless blessings we send upon you each time

The beloved of Allah is what you are

A role model and messenger, for us, you are
