The "Huh? I Dont Get It?" Thread

published by Seraphim on 23 November, 2010 - 12:18

Whether it's a joke, a hadith, a scientific article, a math problem or a new cuss (just kidding Blum 3 ), post/link it here and perhaps the wiser revivalers amongst us can help clarify your misunderstanding.

Oh but for Islamic matters please link your sources. And maybe make a separate thread if it is something that requires a whole lot of discussion.

Got it? Good.

I'll go first:

Q. When you're sat in a lecture theatre or at the Cinema, which arm rest is yours? The one on the left or the one on the right???

[TV] Panorama: British Schools, Islamic Rules

published by You on 23 November, 2010 - 00:52

The blurb for the show from the iplayer page:

Investigation which uncovers disturbing evidence that some Muslim children are being exposed to extremist preachers and fundamentalist Islamic groups. We also expose the part-time schools where hate is on the curriculum. The programme asks why school inspectors have missed the warning signs and examines the impact this could have on young Muslims' ability to integrate into mainstream British life.

To me it seems like scaremongering mostly...

Knowledge is Power

published by Seraphim on 22 November, 2010 - 14:45

The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) preached the many virtues of seeking knowledge, alot of which helped keep me goin through college and uni. The ones below are some of my fav:

“Some poetry is dressed in knowledge and art.”

“With knowledge man riseth to the heights of goodness and to a noble position, associateth with sovereigns in this world, and attaineth to the perfection of happiness in the next.”

“Acquire knowledge. It enableth its posessor to distinguish right from wrong; it lighteth the way to Heave; it is our friend in the desert, our society in solitude, our companion when friendless; it guideth us to happiness; it sustaineth us in misery; it is an ornament among friends, and an armour against enemies.”

In the Presence of the Divine: Establishing Connection in Salah

published by Utrujj on 20 November, 2010 - 22:44

“Guard strictly your (habit of) prayers, especially the middle prayer, and stand before Allah in a devout (frame of mind).”

[Al-Baqarah: 238]

For many, it is a recurring struggle to fruitfully perform the Salah under mental seclusion from the confining world surrounding us, to turn to Allah in solitude under full submission, to seek His pleasure and intensify the one-to-one relationship with the All-Mighty. Based on the commended work of the renowned scholar, Imam Al-Ghazali’s “Minhajul Arifeen”, we will be enlightened with a unique dimension to enhance our spiritual connection with the Creator, a step-by-step approach starting from beyond the intention to perform the Salah to the supplication made after the tashahud and more.
