    O my nafs

    Why do you like this dunya so much

    Why do like what allah has hated it

    Why do preffer this dunya over the akhirah

     

    Why do you insist on anger

    Why do you insist on hate

    Why do you insist on jelousy

    But why? Why? Why?

    I just wish that you could answer

     

    But O my Nafs

    I know this one for sure...

    That I will have to leave one day

    Whatever that was dear to me...In this world

    Whatever that was close to my heart

    I will have to leave everything behind

    One day...

    And all that will be my company

    Will me my deeds

    Wether they be bad or good

    And all those that I loved

    None of them will go with me

    In the dark....

    In the grave....

     

    So stop now o my nafs

    Stop insisting on evil deeds

    And make the best out of my life

    So that insha-allah

    When I go

    In the dark

    In the grave

    I will have a good company

    A company that I haven’t realized

    How precious it was

    In the sight of allah

    A Sincere heart...

    A True faith...

    A simple Smile...

    A helping hand...

    And all those good deeds

    That I did in this world

    Will be my best company

    In the dark...

    In the grave...

    And Those good deeds

    Will be the light of my grave

    The light of my siraat

    And the light that will win

    The favors of allah on me

    And on that day O Allah

    I hope that you’ll forgive me

    For all my shortcomings

    And all my mistakes

    And O my Lord

    I hope you’ll have Mercy on me

    For I’ve never despaired

    Your mercy and forgiveness

    For you’re the most Merciful, most Forgiving.

    The Condition of the Muslim Ummah

     

     

    The condition of the muslim ummah

    Is a reality that I cannot bear

    It’s the reality of wars

    It’s the reality of oppression

    It’s the reality of Injustice

     

     

    But Why O my Muslim Ummah

    Why are we in this condition?

    Even though I, as well as you

    Would want to blame on the enemy

    But the truth reality is that

    Its us who’s to be blamed

     

    It all Started when we stopped working for the Akhirah

    And Started preffereing this Dunya

    When we stopped struggling for Allah’s cause

    But started struggling for power and fame

    When we stopped feeding the poor

    But Started eating into our content

    When we stopped enjoining good

    But Started enjoining evil

    When we stopped considering other races

    As our brethren in Islam

    But started being the worst racist you can ever imagine

     

    I see no brotherhood of faith

    In the hearts of my Muslim Ummah

    But all I see

    Is the brotherhood of nationalism

    The brotherhood of racism

    The brotherhood of tribilism

     

    O my Muslim Ummah the reality of our condition

    Started when we crossed the limits set by Allah

    The Most High

    When we abandoned the deen

    When we abandoned the sunnah of our prophet

    We see much talk but no action

    And I ask why

    As allah has already asked us

    In his glorious quran

    “O ye who believe!

    Why say ye that which ye do not?

    Grievously odious is it in the sight of Allah

    Is that ye say that which ye do not.â€

    Don’t you know that

    O my muslim brothers and Sisters

    That action speaks louder than words?

     

     

    O My Muslim Brothers and Sisters

    This Ummah of ours needs your help

    It needs you to put your trust in Allah

    The most High

    It needs you to practice Islam as a way of Life

    Instead of being part time muslims.

    Bcause this Ummah has a promise from allah

    That which He has promised in his Holy Book

    “Allah has promised,

    to those among you who believe and work righteous deeds,

    that He will, of a surety, grant them in the land, inheritance (of power),

    as He granted it to those before them;

    that He will establish in authority their religion –

    the one which He has chosen for them;

    and that He will change (their state), after the fear in which they (lived),

    to one of security and peace:

    'They will worship Me (alone) and not associate aught with Me.

    'If any do reject Faith after this, they are rebellious and wicked.â€

    Longing for Allah

     

    Oh my Allah, Thou are my *Rabb

    My faith for Thee is true and pure

    Thou are both merciful and mercy giving,

    Under Thy command are the dead and the living.

    Great are Thou, the All-knowing

    Glory is to Thee, O Eternally Living.

     

    I long to be with thee O Most Kind

    My love for thee is truly never-ending

    My heart trembles at Thy Glory

    And my eyes become watery

    And my body shivers with fear

    And my head is bending down in humility and adoration to Thee

    Prostrating to thee O Most High, is the best position I love to be

    Down on my knees

    With Thy love in my heart

    My head on the floor

    Longing for thee

     

    For thy love and forgiveness, is what I wish to have

    And Thy infinite mercy is what I hope for

    For Thou are most Merciful most Forgiving!

    salaam sis modesty

    Walaahi if you worked with the conference you will notice that all the money that is charged would be spended on the expense that the conference would cost. The food served, the hole to rent, the speaker's fly tickets, all and much more would cost like more than $5,000. So you see, it is not like they're keeping money for themselves, they have to spend it on the conference itself. So even if you can donate plus buy the ticket would be so nice of you sis...cus that conference is not a cheap thing trust me on this sis.

    Salaam.

    Make sure you read all the way down to the last sentence.

     

    Many years ago in a small Indian village, a farmer had the misfortune of

    owing a large sum of money to a village moneylender.

     

    The moneylender, who was old and ugly, fancied the farmer's beautiful

    daughter. So he proposed a bargain.

     

    He said he would forgo the farmer's debt if he could marry his daughter.

    Both the farmer and his daughter were horrified by the proposal. So the

    cunning money-lender suggested that they let providence decide the matter.

    He told them that he would put a black pebble and a white pebble into an

    empty money bag.

     

    Then the girl would have to pick one pebble from the bag.

     

    1) If she picked the black pebble, she would become his wife and her

    father's debt would be forgiven.

     

    2) If she picked the white pebble she need not marry him and her father's

    debt would still be forgiven.

     

    3) But if she refused to pick a pebble, her father would be thrown into

    jail.

     

    They were standing on a pebble strewn path in the farmer's field. As they

    talked, the moneylender bent over to pick up two pebbles. As he picked them

    up, the sharp-eyed girl noticed that he had picked up two black pebbles and

    put them into the bag. He then asked the girl to pick a pebble from the bag.

     

    Now, imagine that you were standing in the field.

     

    What would you have done if you were the girl?

     

    If you had to advise her, what would you have told her?

     

    Careful analysis would produce three possibilities:

     

    1. The girl should refuse to take a pebble.

     

    2. The girl should show that there were two black pebbles in the bag and

    expose the money-lender as a cheat.

     

    3. The girl should pick a black pebble and sacrifice herself in order to

    save her father from his debt and imprisonment.

     

    Take a moment to ponder over the story. The above story is used with the

    hope that it will make us appreciate the difference between lateral and

    logical thinking. The girl's dilemma cannot be solved with traditional

    logical thinking. Think of the consequences if she chooses the above logical

    answers.

     

    What would you recommend to the Girl to do?

     

    Scroll down if you give up...............

    ..

     

     

    Well, here is what she did ....

     

    The girl put her hand into the moneybag and drew out a pebble. Without

    looking at it, she fumbled and let it fall onto the pebble-strewn path where

    it immediately became lost among all the other pebbles.

     

    "Oh, how clumsy of me," she said. "But never mind, if you look into the bag

    for the one that is left, you will be able to tell which pebble I picked."

     

    Since the remaining pebble is black, it must be assumed that she had picked

    the white one. And since the money-lender dared not admit his dishonesty,

    the girl changed what seemed an impossible situation into an extremely

    advantageous one.

     

    MORAL OF THE STORY:

     

    Most complex problems do have a solution. It is only that we don't attempt

    to think.

    I know how one feels when someone will say

    That your poems are welcome and ask you to stay,

    For it makes you real proud

    Welcomed into the crowd,

    And you maybe have learned you're a poet that way.

     

    But for me rhyme alone leaves something desired,

    And reading some poems makes me feel uninspired,

    For it takes something more

    Or the rhyme may just bore,

    There's another small fact that I think is required.

     

    The thing to improve rhyming most will admit

    Is the added support of a rhythm to it.

    Just give it some zing,

    For by adding some swing

    An enjoyable poem you're then sure to get.

     

    I know adding rhythm's not as easy as pie

    But a poet won't know if he doesn't comply.

    Just by tapping your toe

    So your fingers will know

    You can add rhythm to any poem if you try.

     

    So give it a try before slamming the door

    For I'm sure you can do it, you just have to keep score,

    Like someone I know

    Always said it should go...

    a-one and a-two and a-three and a-four.

    The Conversation Between Watts & Knotts :

    "Who's calling?" was the answer to the telephone.

    "Watt."

    "What is your name, please?"

    "Watt's my name."

    "That's what I asked you. What's your name?"

    "That's what I told you. Watt's my name."

    A long pause, and then from Watt, "Is this James Brown?"

    "No, this is Knott."

    "Please tell me your name."

    "Will Knott."

    "Why not?"

    "Huh? What do you mean why not?"

    "Yeah! Why won't you tell me your name?"

    "But I told you my name!"

    "Didn't you say you will not?"

    "Not not, Will Knott!"

    "That's what I mean."

    "So you know my name."

    "Of course not!"

    "Good. So now, what is yours?"

    "Watt. Yours?"

    "Your name!"

    "Watt's my name."

    "How the hell do I know? I am asking you!"

    "Look I have been very patient and I have told you my name and you have not even told me yours yet."

    "You have been patient, what about me? I have told you my name so many times and it is you who have not told me yours yet."

    "Of course not!"

    "See, you even know my name!"

    "Of course not!"

    "Then why do you keep saying of course Knott?"

    "Because I don't."

    [Pause]

    "What is your name?"

    "See, you know my name!"

    "Of course not!"

    "Then why do you keep asking what is your name?"

    "To find out your name!"

    "But you already know it!"

    "What?"

    "See, and you know mine!"

    "Of course not!"

    "Exactly!"

    NOW THEY ARE AT A POINT WHERE BOTH THINK THE OTHER KNOWS HIS NAME, BUT THEY THEMSELVES DON'T KNOW THE OTHER'S NAME.

    "Listen, listen, wait; if I asked you what your name is, what will be your answer?"

    "Watt's my name."

    "No, no, give me only one word."

    "Watt"

    "Your name!"

    "Right!"

    [pause before it hits him]

    "Oh, Wright!"

    "Yeah!"

    "So why didn't you say it before?"

    "I told you so many times!"

    "You never said Wright before"

    "Of course I did."

    "Ok I won't argue any more. Do you know my name?"

    "I do not."

    "Well, there you go, now we know each other's name."

    "I do not!"

    "Good!"

    [pause before it hits him]

    "Oh, Guud!"

    "Good."

    "No wonder, it took me so long, is that Dutch?"

    "No, it's Knott!"

    "Oh, okay. At least the names are clear now Guud."

    "Yes Wright."

    NOW THEY BOTH THINK THEY KNOW EACH OTHER'S NAME AS WELL!

    Watt do you think?? Do they or do they Knott???

    Have A Nice Day !

    This is soooo silly but true...

    and it's going to drive you crazy !

     

    While sitting at your desk,

    lift your right foot off the

    floor and make clockwise circles.

     

    Now, while doing this,

    draw the number "6" in the

    air with your right hand, starting from the top of the 6.

     

    Your foot will change direction

    and there's nothing

    you can do about it :D

    Hey guys thanks for asnwering to me finally lol.

     

    Bisharo, most of the people that apply to pharmacy schools did their BS already, but that doesn't mean that you will automatically get into pharmacy school. Most of the things that pharmacy school look at is your GPA and if you have experience in the field. But it is always good to have your BS plus good GPA. Also some schools require that you did good on your PCAT. University of California, San Farancisco is the best phamracy school in the whole united states, and ironically they don't require PCAT which is a plus for me, cuz heck that test is really crazy cuz you have 50sec to answer each question lol.

     

    Jalaato, thanks hon. I be waiting, and plus you can tell him about this website it has all the pharmacy schools in the us plus what classes they require you to take, etc. It is www.pharmcas.org

     

    Well anybody else doing pharmacy? lol.

    Salaam

    the ideal thing would be that qabiil shouldn't matter, but unfortunately it does for so many somalis, but i think that it shouldn't because what if this person is everything you ever wanted in a mate, should you leave her or him because he/she is not the qabiil you desired? If anybody ever did that I would consider them to be very shallow. that is just my openion. and the second question is that love does matter to me, alot, and I mean really matters to me.
