Islam and Boxing

Salaam,

Boxing, what a beautiful sport. A sport of warriors and tough nuts, some may call them idiots, some, call them heroes (for some reason).

Im a big fan of boxing, always have been, since the days of Nigel Benn, I followed the career of Prince Naseem Hamid from start to abrupt end. And now, britain has a new boxing "prodigy" by the name of Amir Khan.

Now, Islam teaches us to be peaceful people and not to hurt anybody unnecessarily. Now we all know boxing is a brutal sport.

Explaining Islam

Salaam

When you are asked question about islam, do you give proper, detailed answers?

as an example whenever I get asked about why I have a beard, I reply because. I have found myself not actually giving an answer. I know I could say its compulsory, but i know the next quiestion why don't everyone have it then. and then that will open a can of worms.

So I just shrug my shoulders, and say because. or its easier than shaving everyday... or some other lame excuse.

So do you go out of your way to explain Islam?

Obsession With Hijaab

Hijaab is FARD-this is a black and white issue-no one disputes this fact

but why is the Hijaab the most rinsed out topic?

Hijaab, hijaab, hijaab, hijaab-this topic is beginning to put me to sleep

and its the BOYS who are more concerned about the Hjaab then girls are

they preach it more then women do-God knows why

Hijaab is important

what what about the beard for men? What about guys wearing shorts? What about guys wearing tight trousers?

how would guys like it if all girls went around preaching

"brothers need to grow beards! Grow beards NOW!!"?
