The Perks of Your Job

published by MuslimSister on 17 December, 2007 - 16:59

Salaam,

I found myself laughing to myself on my way home from school today (like some crazy woman - Biggrin ), but to be honest, I often go home with a smile on my face and look forward to the next day.

I'm sure, enjoying your job is a personal thing...couple of new teachers like me have either quit or are more stressed out than they were when they were training.

Share the perks of your present or past job in this thread...

Imam al-Ghazzali

[quote]IMAM ABD HAMID AL-GHAZALI

You should not neglect your time or use it haphazardly; on the contrary you should bring yourself to account, structure your litanies and other practices during each day and night, and assign to each period a fixed and specific function.

This is how to bring out the spiritual blessing (baraka) in each period.

But if you leave yourself adrift, aimlessly wandering as cattle do, not knowing how to occupy yourself at every moment, your time will be lost.

Subverting Wikipedia

While it is entirely possible to do so, it is extremely likely you will [url=http://wikileaks.org/wiki/Wikileaks_busts_Gitmo_propaganda_team]get caught[/url].

(This topic was created just to point this out to MuslimBro who I think has issues with Wikipedia and its accuracy compared to other sources. I could not remember where the other bits of convo took place.)

[color=green][b]Christmas is here

Tis the season to be jolly
and festive
Peace and good will to all men and women
It’s finally here
But for Muslims it holds many fears
Dilemmas
And tears

How to reject Christmas cards without being rude
Whether to send any in return
To reciprocate greetings
Or just smile and nod and appear non-committal

Christmas party is the highlight of the year
All dressed up and equal
Mistletoe and wine

Salaam,

Just wondered if anyne knew the answers to the following questions:

Does islam accept the so called "science of the stars"?

Is there any truth in star signs - capricorn, virgo, taurus etc

What does islam say about fortune telling?

Basically what I want to know is whether Islam says it is possible to learn these things and secondly is we are allowed to use them.

Thanks in advanc for your help guys and gals

Salaam.

Arrange me a Marriage !!!

[size=24][color=orange][b]“Arrange me a Marriage!”- TV Program Review[/b][/color][/size]

[b]By Majed Iqbal [/b]

A fresh new program has hit the television screens at peak prime time viewing on the BBC 2 channel. Actually, one which has taken everyone back! Titled “Arrange me a marriage” the show attempts to matchmake couples by using the principles of “Asian” arranged marriages.

Sounds interesting! Also sounds taboo! After all, such a concept of an arranged marriage seems backdated to Victorian Times for the English population.
