No idea what the text number is.

I was (I think) the second call on the show - saying sikhs also have beards, and that I would NOT wear a jilbab!

[quote=Noor]eds on about intergration once again![/quote]

I noticed... he loves the topic. It don't help that I more or less disagree with everything on there...

fwiw, "Integration" is being part of the community, be that voluntary work, paid work, your job or even just being there.

Ed i like ur accent

i wud ring in but 2 late
maybe 2morow
good show thou
u guys argue too much thou ๐Ÿ˜‚

what i thinkkkkkkkkkkk thouuu ill tell uuu

religion comes first, nationality comes afterwards
if i were 2 introduce maself in terms of nationality, i wud say ima british pakistani.. was born and bred here etc..

and anyway, identity is so that people can recognise each other.. ofcourse u can be british and muslim at the same time..

about that guy who rang in saying sumthin about how can u be muslim and be friends wid jews.. ALRIGHT THEN :roll:

i wud say that u SHUD befriend ppl of other religions so u can spread the word of islam to them...

[quote=Noor]admin ring in.[/quote]

Surely, I can't gate-crash the same show twice?

THey had no answers the first time round and just brushed the issue under the carpet... especially the point of "Salman Farsi".

Why not?

Now that the show is over, I can say I disagrees with the vast majority of what was said.

Try visiting the linked website.

@ Ed - I was wondering what took you so long to properly tackle what that guy was saying...

As for some of your generalisations... almost borderline racist. Brother Zahid must have had a heart attack or two when you started speaking. ๐Ÿ˜›

no, you started too slow in challenging him, let him get away with murder.

However, later on everyone piled up on him at once, and when he made a valid point (A paid job is still integrating into the community. "Integration" is not something you should have to go out of your way to do.), he was still criticised.

It was just a little uneven and if he had been challenged at the right places, it would have felt less like victimisation, more like proper debate.

Then again, he did not help himself when making strong arguments without considering what they meant - which forced him to do a lot of back-pedaling later on.

But what he said, it needed to be challenged (and that is coming from me - someone who does not care about this topic at all). Otherwise I would not have rang in - he was getting away with way too much. (don't know how it seemed to others, but I felt that I tied knots around Bro Irfan too. Friendly tip - do not argue with he caller. Get the point from the caller then get rid. THEN discuss that point in the studio in a semi intellectually informed manner.)

PS Pakistanis chew paan too.
