Howzit there brother man, what's up in SA? Got any beautiful chicka's there for me??

Well there's 1 challenge we face in the UK ^ ^. Some brothers just have little control over their desires.

Honestly speaking that is one the biggest challenges we face in the UK. Especially when the sex and beauty is advertised so much across all forms of media. Still there are no excuses, i presume there are similar problems in South Africa aswell.

I cant say that it is difficult to practice Islam in the UK at all but alot of the youth here easily fall into the dunya lifestyle. As for the majority of the elders, they just stick to what they have been taught and are very cultural in their beliefs. Out of the elders who do practice most of them stay in the masajids.

So the responsibility of Dawah has been taken by alot of the youth and this has started to create it's own fitnah. Alhamdulillah alot of the youth have started practicing and there are alot of others who have converted to Islam.

In my opinion the youth don't really know about Islam so they go to anyone who they think has knowledge of it and who can also relate to them. Due to the lack of knowledge there have been alot of muslims who are slighlty being misguided and preaching wrong things about Islam. This has also created division in the UK between alot of groups/sects.

This is all just my opinion though and may Allah (swt) guide me on the straight path and guide us all. Ameen

I also want to know how muslims are all over the world, the best way to find out is to travel and see for yourself insha allah.

Hope i answered your question and insha allah we will benefit from each other in the future. Assalamu alaikum

By the way it's not all doom and gloom over here, there are of positive things going on here in the UK such as this website

I was just trying to refer to your interests in the challenges we face, insha allah we will discuss the positives another time as i tend to go on for what seems like years.

I remember reading something a year ago which suggested that Africa had the highest rate of rapes in the world. I may be making that memory up though.

True, we are the crime capital of the world. My father, was in an attempted armed hijacking, my brother was hijacked, I was in an attempted foiled hijacking, pulled out my 9mm and they scrambled for their lives. We had several house break-ins as well. The powers that be are now in the process of disarming the law abiding citizens. Rapes tend to occur more amongst rural blacks, though occassionally during house break ins if you are unlucky enough to be in the house they may rape you wife and daughter in front of the whole family. I'd rather die than and attain martyrdom than watch helplessly.

Crime is a problem here in SA, you never know when that bullet with your name written on it is close by.
