Thanks MuslimSister!

I really shouldn't recieve an award for jumping ship though... not a particularly classy move.

I'll nominate Judda (STOP! PUT THE ROCK DOWN!! - there's an explanation)

Looking at his recent posts he's put forth a serious effort to not through verbal molitov coctails with every post - and consequently it looks like some of you have found his questions pretty interesting/meaningful.

And he's also managed to not lose his personality in this new adventure in politeness.

I disagree.

He is absolutely no good.

I have NOT seen him do any good work since 2002 when he made Lagaan.

I prefer Salman Khan.

Definitely not, what has he done for muslims in general, nothing. I think someone like Yusuf Islam is much more worthy. Amir Khan name will grab the people attention, but it too early in his career to be singing his praise, i personally can't see him beating that Kevin Mitchell bloke.

IMO someone like Yusuf Islam is much more worthy, he queitly goes about his business, has been propagating islam for ages (as long as i can remember) someone the whole of teh UK is familar with, he did give up a very promising career as a singer for islam. He does bare Charity work and highlight many issue of muslim suffering. Too me he is like the figure of British Islam. He may not be the latest in thing like Amir Khan, but still a more worthy winner IMO.

I also don't see why anyone complaining about the forum personaility, we have had much more vote then last year and as lilsis seem to have taken 60% of teh votes, she should be awarded the personality award IMO.

He dones load this year, like he done every years. From the dignity he showed when not being allowed into America, to the way he handle all the allegation about his link too Terrorist. He even got The Sun too formally apologies for one of the news articles and recivev libel cost from both The Sun and The Sunday Times.

On top of that he released a song with Ronan Keating which was quoite successfull and brought himself to the attention of a new generation. His also done loads of Charity work with Tsunami, Niger, Sudan and Mali and currently with the Earthquake appeal. He done Concert all over the world to help raise money for these disaster including places like Jakarta and Abu Dubia.

His school that he hekp run are also doing brillantly and is currently rank one of the area that it is based. Also he done alot of work for IBERR, which does alot of work in helping educate teh muslim ummah, this year it was mostly based in Nigeria.

He also done loads of interviews and had many article written about him, he has done loads of work worldwide and is publicing islam in a good manner and making healine for the right reason, with his charity Samll kindness. There loads more he done which hasn't come to the public attention, just need to look it up, i just got all this stuff from his website

Alhumduillah, couldn't agree more. Actually that two years in a row that i have agree with Revival choice. He definitely been a worthy winner this year IMO and too be honest the same could be said for the last 5 years or so since 9/11.

On another note, I am revamping the people section.

Any names that should go in?

Once I have done my reorganisation, I will work on it...

I have not read this years write-up, so cannot comment if its any good.
