  1. Salalms to all,, May Allah SWA give us firmness in diin Amiin.... bros/sis there is nothing to be confused about the shi'a today,, which their real name is "Rafida" in arabic which means 'rejectors',, basically there is no difference between those that they are fighting and them and u guys know who i mean...if not worse.. 'cause these guys they curse our beloved 'saxaba' companions of the prophet SAW all of them except few,, and everybody know the status of the companions in our diin,, to talk about one of them is talking about the prophet SAW,, they call Aisha RA a "prostitute" Wallahi i'm so reluctant to even write this word let alone utter it... and we all know Aisha's position in islam RA... so my bros/sis don't be confused about these guys and don't sympathize with them, don't be decieved by the looks,, the long beard, the islamic dress... the hijab of their women... and the words like Allahu Akbar,, laa ilaaha ila laah, they could say as much as they want but that won't make them muslims,,, rather cursing of the saxaaba is a "kufr" itself,, the only thing i feel sorry for are their kids,,, but Allah SWA has a infinite wisdom He knows their place and faith... as far as i know there is one group who are close to Ahlu sunnah and they are called "AZAIDIA" AND this group u find them in yemen i think... Wallahi there is so much to say about them it's not funny... if we only knew how much hatred they have for us... Allah SWA knows best.... wasalam....
  2. first of all salam to all.. i didn't read all the nice articles here,, but from what i have read,, some of our bros/sis were encourging single life... using ice and having to stop watching romantic movies is not gonna cut it... 'cause the minute u step out of the house u r in romantic world if u guys know what i mean.. specially those of us who live this part of the world (west).....'cause there is a reason Allah SWA created men and women, plus the prophet SAW encouraged us to marry and have children so he can be proud of us the day of judgemet....so marrying is something we need to do if we are able to if we love and follow our prophets way...SAW as for finding the right man,, ASW says in the qur'an "And whosoever fears Allah and keeps his duty to him , He will make a way for him to get out(from every difficulty)"..... so fear of Allah SWA is the key to success, wheather it is finding the right person or other difficulties we face in life... the other thing is that our girls marring new converts,, nothing wrong with that,, specially if they understand each other and both of them are god fearing ppl... but for our girls to say they have better diin than the rest of the somali boys,, is not right... i think what they don't want to say is that they are more "romantic" 'cause of their background.... wasalam....

    salams.. except "Tahara",,, this word starts with the 16th letter of the arabic alphabet,,, wasalam..
  5. BismiAllahi.. salams to all... Servant of Allah,, jazaka Allahu khairan for ur kind comments,, i just like to let u know that these pillars were mentioned by our scholars May Allah SWA have mercy on their sould Ameen.. and as i mentiond they r taken right from the quran and sunnah,, so they r not from me.. the second thing,, u said "diin alone is enough" i beg to differ with u in this case... a person with good diin automatically should have good manners that should be the case but in reality things are different... how many times we have seen people with good diin and well informed about their religion, behave angelic infront of people and when they go home they r completely opposite of what they r outside,, beat the wife, the kids unislamically,, also sometimes he deals with other people rudely... so a person with good diin doesn't mean they have good "MANNERS"... 'cause SAW said in the hadith: " if a person comes to you which u pleased with his diin and Aqlaq let him marry...." so u see SAW he specifically stated good diin and manners,, he SAW didnt just stop at good diin,,, so u can say the same thing about "aqlaq",, manners alone is not sufficient for a marriage to work,, there should be the combination of the two.. 'cause if the person doesn't have a good diin but they have good aqlaq,, they behave unislamic right? for example they wouldn't mind being in a mixed environmet men and women on the same floor,, going out to the movies,, to dress unislamic,,, the list goes on and on... u see what i mean... so they both go hand in hand,,, and we should not understand that just 'cause the person has a good diin so they have good manners.. i apologize making it long,,, i hope u see the difference,, and the biggest evidence is the hadith of SAW that i mention above... no offense intended.. wasalam...
  6. salams.. good stuff,, jazaka Allahu khairan,, if we only practiced.. wasalam..
  7. salams to all... i'm sorry i didn't read the whole article due to time constraint,, but judging from the title.. i can say that,, in order to have a happy marriage there has to be found four critical pillars,, two of these r taken from the qur'an and the other two from the sunnah.. 1. the person must have good "DIIN" 2. good "AQLAQ" "MANNERS" these two r taken from the sunnah.. 3. There has to be "LOVE" between the two. 4. They have to have "MERCY" on each other and toleranc.. and these last two r taken from the qur'an.. so those who r married look for these four pillars in ur marriage if anything is missing u know how to fix hopeflly before it's too late.. wasalam...
  8. BismiAllahi... salams to all... Pretty Tone... u r right,, u can't be shy learning ur diin,, we have to have proper knowledge so we can lead a life which is pleasing to Allah SWA..and this,, it's not going to happen without knowledge of the diin... so.. it's forbidden for men to engage their wives in intercourse from behind,,, and when she's in her period except that when she's having her period he's still can play with her with some restrictions and without intercourse,,, the other thing,, a man can have an intercourse with his wife from any position which he chooses as long as he's aiming for the right place... these much i know as everybody else does... there is a lot of details which goes in between which i'm sure u can find out... these r the main things.. there are a lot of good websites out there just make sure u go to the right source... and fear Allah SWA in that which u r enquiring about.. and for u to ask these type of questions deosn't mean u pervert... the party who call u pervert r ignorant.. wasalam...
  9. salams all... Hassena ,, jazaka Allahu Khairan for ur advice,, Wallahi... i get the feeling dat u were commenting on what i wrote to Socod-badne... i said dat out of amazement and sarcasm,, May Allah SWA forbid this poor soul of mine making judgement on his behalf... wasalam....
  10. salams all.. socod_badne.. yeah wine or pork become halal when u say "bismiAllah" just b4 u dirnk or eat,,,,looooooooll... just kidding,,, socod-badne.. what's the matter with u,,u should know better, bro/sis if we let things like this get to su which r so obvious then how abuot matters which regard the "Aqeeda" which is sooo easy to get lost in... if we don't ask Allah SWA for help.. as for the cats,dogs, and wolves... we are not allowed to eat them,,, 'cause SAW said: animals with claws and canine tooth are not permissible for us to eat...,,, so they r out of the question.. Allah SWA knows best.. this is what i remember regading this animals.. sorry i didnt intend to offend, if i did i apologize... wasalam..
  11. salams to all... this is funny.. where were the men when this guy calls specially on married women,, to collect "sadaqa",,, were they given permission by their men to go,, and who said only women pay sadaq,,, and who said "sadaqa" is in only gold and silver... This bro/sis shows our ignorance in our diin... we are our own enemy... May Allah SWA forgive us and guide us.. Ameen.. wasalam..
  12. salams to all... Haseena u totally right.. i read the story of the salaf i enjoy reading them,, these ppl are my icons, i admire them, look up to them i try to match up to them,, after all they r setting the highest examples... Wallahi i love them for the sake of Allah SWA,the most god fearing ppl that history has ever known,,, we should read their stories with comtemplation,, everytime i go through some hardship and then i compare myself to what they been through for the sake of Allah SWA,, mine becames like a piece of cake,, wasalam..
  13. salams to all... it makes me happy to see ppl who r trying to better themselves in their diin... who r eager and willing to sacrifice for the sake of Allah SWA..it should be so.don't put 'till tomorrow what u can do today right...one thing i like to share with u guys and used to strugle with.. no matter how many times u hit rock bottom... get up and walk again.. Allah SWA never gets tired of forgiving, rather he likes to forgive,, one of the tricks shaytan used to play on me was that everytime i used to make a sin and repent and do it again,, shaytan whispers to me that Allah SWA it's not going to forgive that it's no use making "tawba" and start to feel hopeless,disgust and narrowness in the chest... and then i heard about the narrations of the prophet SAW like when he said"Fear Allah wherever you are, and follow the bad deed with a good deed it erases it..." some of the scholars have said "Fear of Allah" means to "put between you and the punishment of Alla SWA a prevention or protection,, and they explained this protection to mean... doing what Allah SWA has ordered us to do and to stay away what he has told us to stay away from... i felt happy 'cause i understood the first time in my life what this word meant and i used to say it so many times b4.., the other thing i tried to do was,,surround myself with good company, Wallahi trust me, it's very important, it was the advice of our prophet but a lot of us ignore it.. and after that i learned to talk less and lesten more, ofcourse listen to good and i started to learn about the diin,, i wanted to know what Allah SWA wanted from me as an individual living on this planet.. i found out that this diin of islam was the most precious gift i could ever achieve, 'cause my salvation in this world and in the hereafter depended on it.. so i had to force myself learn arabic to understand the diin better... Wallahi u can't imagine the sweetness u find when u r understanding what u r reciting or reading and listening... what made me more happy was when i learned how to make proper "Tawba" repentance from sins.. i learned that sins are divided into two categories: big sins and small sins... For Allah SWA to forgive big sins the person has to make proper "tawba" which means has to complete the conditions of "tawba", they r four and some scholars have said five.. which are: 1. To stop the sin 2. To make a resolution not to go back 3. To regret commiting that sin 4. If it involved a property,, you have to give it back to it's owner 5. The fifth one that some scholars have added was,,it has to be done before the sun rises from the west... This is the best part... small sins: The scholars have said after looking into the qur'an and sunnah that they will be erased by "Good deeds" i was so happy i tried to do all the good deeds u can imagine ofcourse according to the qur'an and sunnah... like being good to ur parents,keeping up with prayer,wudu, smiling at ur bro/sis face when u meet them, go visit them when they sick, give salams to ppl that u know and the ones u don't know, buy them gifts ( whenever i could) for my friends, 'cause SAW said "give one another gifts so you will love one anothr" so sharing gifts is a reason for loving one another,fasting the voluntary one,remembering of Allah SWA by saying frequently "Subhana Allah" or "Istaqfuru Allah", and so one so forth,,so basically everytime i got myself into a small sin i ran to do a good deed to get rid of it... So bros/sis this is my humble experience and i'm still climbing,, this didn't happen to me over night, it took sometime, scholars say that the iman takes time to flourish it doesn't enter into the believers heart one time,,, Alxamdulillah still fighting shaytan,, will never leave u alone.. that is his job but u defeat him by knowledge, if Allah SWA didn't teach me this little that i know,,Allah knows where i could have been... u have to know how to defeat ur enemy.. and shaytan is our sworn enemy on top of that we can't see him which is worse than an enemy that u can see..right... but with the help of Allah SWA after proper knowledge we can defeat him...Insha Allah.. Another thing that helps me is that i try to be sincere with Allah SWA.. since i cannot hide anything from Him,, and i ask him to guide more and more... May Allah guide us all Ameen ya rab.. You guys probably want to know what is the defintion of a big sin and small sin,, right? well i leave that to u guys to find out and share with us,,, if no answer i will post Insha Allah.. This is not the story of a person who became muslim,,, this is a person who was born in islam,, looooool I apologize for making it long.. wasalam..
  14. salams all.. rashiid bro... i think u have two issues to deal with... first him going to the party?,,, and the food he brougth? we have to know weather dat food is haram,,,like it's not mix with pork,or with something like wine etc,, in this case u know the answer,,, but if it's from a halal source,,, i don't know i have to find out,,probably u thinking him going to the party which is haram..so the food must be haram right.. it might not be so, Allah knows best..anyways i try to find out Insha Allah.. wasalam..
