Salaams

Are you new? not sure what to do? well read on!

You can simply jump right in, take part in discussions and make yourself a home.

You may however prefer to be more formal and "announcement" your presence and membership. You can do this by creating a forum topic in the forum or by creating a blog post if you have more to say in your introduction.

For the shy, there is the age old "Hello New members 😉" topic that you can post in, but here the introductions can get lost so I do not prefer this method.

Where to announce?

There is the forum topic that is ancient and has many announcements in it. You can say your hello in there.

If you are more daring, then you can also create a blog post.

Differences between a forum topic and a blog post

This is something that confuses people - if both can be used in similar ways, why are there two? when should one be used and when the other?

There are no hard and fast answers, but blogs are better to say your piece and also are more associated with your account (all your blog posts can be found in one place), while forum topics are more communal and better fort discussions

Blog posts also allow you to add an image gallery, so if you want to write about some holiday or other, it may be a better idea to use a blog than a forum topic.

The following rules must be adhered to whilst using these forums:

1. A generally pleasant demeanor and cordiality in language is requested during discussions.

2. Please keep all discussion of similar topics within the same thread. New threads deemed to be too similar to ones already presetn may be deleted.

3. Use of any profanity or obscenities of any kind within a post, even disguised with *asterisks or dashes etc will either lead to editing or deleting of the entire message.

4. Use of upper case and bold (font) is not permissible for the whole of the message body, however it may be used to add emphasis to words or phrases contained within your message.

5. The subject of your message should be in accordance with the theme of the forum. (if the text is found irrelevant to the theme, it may be deleted).We also request you to avoid straying from the 'topic' of discussion.

6. Please stay within the thread while answering to a former response in the existing threads. Creating new threads to address someone on a topic which is already being discussed in a pre existing thread, rolls the screen unnecessarily and pushes the older ongoing discussions down the list and below the display window.

7. We request you to always choose a topic for your message, and take care that it is not obscene, provocative or insolent.

8. Spamming of any kind is not allowed.

9. Keep the Title relevant to the actual messages

10. We request you not to post URLs of sites the sole existence of which is to slander a religion or spread lies about it.

11. We will not tolerate personal attacks on participants from ANY Community (personal attacks are defined as comments that reflect upon the person instead of their opinion). Furthermore, any insults intended to ANY religion or ANY prophet of God, or ANY holy scripture shall be removed.

12. Slanderous, defamatory, obscene, indecent, lewd, pornographic, violent, abusive, insulting, threatening and harassing comments are not tolerated. ALL comments by the person who adopts such a manner may be removed and the person will lose the privilege of participating in the forums in future.

13. We don't allow impersonation of other participants or such accounts will be removed.

14. Screen names that are obscene or slanderous shall be denied access.

15. Any discussion about the identity of any of the moderating team is not permitted. All posts will be deleted or heavily modified. This is a no-go area.

16. If any board member is found inadequate in observing any of the above rules they will be warned by the moderators before denying him/her access to discussion boards in future.

We wish everybody a pleasant stay and an enriching experience on these forums.

Regards

The Revival

Thought I may aswell start this off as all past members will also need to re-register.

Inshallah we will be a friendly bunch here, but expect many firework displays as we all defend our positions.

Just to avoid confusion, I have written some[url=/node/185] guidelines to choosing a name[/url].

EDIT 2

Best new members create a new topic or a blog post to introduce themselves. This topic is now closed.

Assalamualaikum brothers and sisters!

It's always great to get in touch with Muslims, as I'm a Muslim too.

I work as an SEO, a newbie ofcourse. Currently I'm working on a company who provides Hajj & Umrah services. Well my intention is to help people who are willing to go to Hajj or Umrah.

Salams to you all. Hope you're well.

Sorry if I've not done this right, this is the first time I've ever been part of a site like this.

The reason I'm here - to learn about other peoples perception of issues that affect them and the advise others give them and lear a thing or two in the process.

What I hope to input - Just what's on my mind. I like asking thought provoking questions (and hope it doen't offend anyone).

I'm quite easy going and don't mind anything.

If you think I'm becoming OTT, please let me know and I'll tell you to shut up *wacko*

See - I'm just rubbish at explaining stuff like this. Just see me on my comments and the articles I publish to enlighten you all *good*

p.s - don't take me too seriously....

Assalamu alaykum 🙂

Aasifa (apologies) for a weirded out introduction.

The nightingale chirps all sorts sometimes 😛

But she leaves you with one favorite quote of hers:

Al-Ettihad Quwwah! (Unity is Power!)

Salaam. 😃

Okie Dokes, I'm 4 weeks old. so that doesn't make me new, that makes me old. I guess...

I ermm..Does anyone else find it weird talking about themselves?! ARGH, now I feel like I'm in a counselling session!!

I'll say it before hand, if I say anything to offend and hurt anyone, please do forgive me.

There, I'm done.

Peace out dudes and dudettes. 😉
