What Did You learn Today?

MuslimSister

Salaam

It is said that "knowledge is what you hear from the mouths of men as they only repeat the best of what they have heard"

I think it’d be useful to post tid-bits of invaluable information-religious/non religious here in this thread.

It can be stuff that you learnt in work/Uni/Mosque/in a talk/something a wise elder told you/a life experience or something that you suddenly realised.

It can be minor or major stuff. It has to be stuff that you never knew before.

Today I learnt…

1-Why I shouldn’t trust, join or think highly of the Sufi Muslim Council

2-It’s quicker for me to get to Uni by Car than public transport.

3-Rubicon Pomegranate juice is tasty and apparently very good for you.

4-Spending so much time typing on computers leads to illegible handwriting and poor spelling

5-Being in the spotlight on a regular basis results in a higher chance of insincerity in actions and can negate all good work.

Keep this thread updated regularly…

Wasalaam

[quote="02cute4u"]it wud only be disrespectful to the prophets (pbuh) grave

no those ppl in the graves cannot here us, its nothing but baseless superstition :roll:

muhammads case is an exception- i will not be going into that.

the dead cannot hear or see - u canoot PROVE that it is against the deen to play in a graveyard

plenty of ppl say "i'm sure" but none of them have ever proven that...

A QUESTION TO ALL YOU TAHIR UL QADRI FANS:

how can u even respect a man who blames muslims for the henios atrocities of 9/11?

how can u respect a man who said it is ok to support the americas/britons crusade in muslim countries!?

tell me if it is ok for the next genration of muslim children in Afghanistan and Iraq to look like [url=http://www.aztlan.net/du_deformed_iraqi_babies.htm]this!?[/url]

THAT MAN SAYS IT IS!!

i can't beleive the popularity of this guy, not only are his teaching seriuosly deviating from the deen, he's with the americans when it comes to destroying the muslim world.

his lectures are an absolout rip off! innit obvious he just wants your dosh!?

For your info, Shyakh ul Islam Dr Muhammad Tahr ul Qadri doesnt make money out of his literature or any of his publications. He hasnt ever took a penny off anything thats been sold by his publication and i personally heard him say that he wud never take a penny nor will his family of anything that is sold, he publishes all stuff free for the benfit of the ummah so that they could find it helful and to bring them closer to the prophet pbuh.

So the next time u make asumptions, i suggest u go and check out the facts first.

Evrything u said was basically made up, u sed yaself before, we shud give proofs, so please prove that Prof. Tahir ul Qadri has said that muslims did 9/11 n that its ok to support a crusade against muslims. N when you do prove that, i will then disprove it, from jus one lecture.

Guys please think before you speak-its Ramadan. Unless you're able to substantiate your claims….your words are slanderous.

khan — Sun, 24 Sep 2006 - 16:56

there used to be an article on therevival, on a radio interview he did.

its nothing new, and I did raise it back in the days.. when some of the members on here attempted to justify his support for the war on afghanistan using the seerah.

its an old topic, i think it should be closed as it causes offence to our Minhaji brothers and sisters on here.

What I learnt yesterday?

If you take a spacewalk without a suit, you will not instantaneously freeze to death. Nor will you explode. Nor will your blood boil. You'll just get sunburn.

If you are in the vacuum conditions long enough that your blood runs out of oxygen, then you will die.

You see apparently the skin is strong enough to counter most effects we expect after having seen too much scifi/horror.

A very bad sunburn!

Well that will teach you for keeping your mouth open!

and by boil, it means really fast evaporation. As the boiling point of water is lower in a vacuum.

One question, will wearing loads of suncream help?

You — Tue, 26 Sep 2006 - 00:36

dunno. It may do more damage if it evapourates... cool you down faster.

I been thinking... what if you have a cut? would that be forfeit to the skin protecting you?

[color=magenta]yeah i deffo agree with u sis, i did some work in my free lessons today im so proud,

i learnt about addition, condensation and co polymerisation, i actually get it[/color]

I learnt that any Tom, Dick and Harry can complain, criticise, have ideas, make suggestions etc…however actually DOING something, is a totally different issue altogether.

In the school placement I’m in these days (which is mentally/emotionally and physically VERY draining) I’m busy preparing kids for their “harvest assembly”…I just happened to ask my mentor, why isn’t the school doing anything for Ramadan/Eid since 60% of the kids are Muslims-esp since they’re big on every other festival….she suddenly decided that I should take on the headache of preparing 300kids (most of whom cant even read yet) for an Eid/Ramadan assembly.

I learnt that I need to keep my big mouth shut.

I've also learnt that it is possible to be an introvert in certain circles and an extrovert around different circles...it all depends on where your heart lies.

You — Thu, 5 Oct 2006 - 22:25

😂

I have learnt to get others to ask my questions. It allows me to avoid any potential work.

and criticising is easy. It can also be fun. So it's not somethign that can easily be avoided.

oh, and I have been taught to never ever [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7HEF49nMsM8]trade a bag of Skittles for a singing rabbit[/url].

[quote="MuslimSister"]I learnt that…sometimes when you DON’T look forward to something; you end up being pleasantly surprised and vice versa.

It takes less time to sprout out a rude, insulting response but takes a lot longer to carefully prepare a non-insulting response…

You pretty much get whatever you want in life, providing you want it badly enough and work hard for it…

5 DAYS??? YOU DO LEARN SOMETHING NEW EVERYDAY!!! 😛

MuslimSister — Mon, 9 Oct 2006 - 10:30

During the last few days I’ve learnt that….

-NOTHING changes your perspective on life and sorts out your priorities more that death.

-One receives an insight into their character and other people characters during such testing times

-Death also highlights the fact that we spend ALL of our time concerned with stupid, dum.b, minor, petty, insignificant issues whilst not looking at the bigger picture.

-I’ve also learnt that we take a lot of things of granted in life…if we do not appreciate what we do have….. when it’s gone....the regrets and “if only’s” can fill a person will self-loathing and despair for a LONG time…

-Lastly, I’ve learnt that if we spend our life, in the service of others…keep our doors generously open….never be stingy when it comes to hospitality….after we die, it is those people that will benefit us.
