Forget about what you’ve read, seen, and heard; those shiny buildings and manmade islands are all just smoke and mirrors. There are so many things wrong with this place that I have decided to compile a list, a must read if you are considering a potential move to Dubai.

1. There is no standard address system making mail-to-the door delivery impossible. In fact, it makes anything nearly impossible.

[b]British army chief attacks US as 'intellectually bankrupt' over Iraq[/b]

Community Cohesion

Community Cohesion
According to Ruth Kelly, migrants must learn English language to integrate. Learning English language is about as useful as learning Arabic, Urdu and other community languages. The British Establishment and society has systematically failed to understand the causes of migration, global terrorism and social and emotional, economic segregation. Muslims suffer different forms of discrimination which reduce their employment opportunities and affect their educational achievements. This can give rise to hopelessness and could undermine Muslims’ sense of belongingness.

Asalam Walikum Muslims and non Muslims

I couldn’t help but notice the atmosphere on this forum lately. I don’t know if its because ppl are getting bored of the holidays and therefore have nothing better to do or because Ramzan is round the corner so they are thinking lets cram in as many insults, snide digs and taking the mick out of someone as we can.

Whatever the reason it’s got to STOP! Most of the members that have joined this forum have been DRIVEN OFF as a result of our attitude towards them.

Muslim's in jobs of security

published by Abbas on 31 August, 2007 - 01:02

Salam,

Today whilst in a supermarket I saw a brother with a beard, well built standing by the door as a security guard. As I walked in and noticed him I paid my Salams and then continued to walk into the store.

It then occured to me what happens if he has to restrain of remove a female from the store (physically)? What hurdles does he face?

The same applies to a muslim police officer.
