Hes feeling fine. Fine enough to fly out to SL on Wednesday heh. Its the motorway. All that Silverstone stone traffic coupled with a broken down coach in the middle lane!

Laxoox as easy to make as beans on toast?

Afternoon all. 2nd wedding in as many weeks. 2 siblings married off in as many weeks. Daal iyo hurdo la'aan.

The constant muran iyo kaftan with complete strangers

We cope knowing the dead will be judged on his/her deeds. I lost my uncle a couple of weeks ago. Illahay ha u naxaristo. Glad I managed to spend sometime with him recently.

Photoshopped surely

Brilliant.

^ Carafaat wa la iska ogyahay ciduu yahay. The blue guy I'm not so sure.

Afternoon all. You know you've been away for too long when you convert everything back into Dirhams to see if its worth buying or not. Ngonge, you know what they say about being forgetful?

^Thought I would merge the two threads.

^Agreed. The conditions in Mali are not right (just as in Somalia with AS).

Morning all. Grey and dull again Faheema hows the heat?

Well, after that clarification, I hope you slept like a baby and dreamt of LFC winning things soon

Swimming should be made compulsary for all kids.

Doubt you have put on running shoes in that time either Adlingtona waayo?

He is probably working for someone else....

Afternoon all. 12 hr sleep (with a school run in between). Ngonge, swimming is actually more tiring than running. Murray on match point...

I'm not sure it isn't the easiest way. It seems like a very blunt instrument to a larger and more noble goal. I'm not sure there is centuries of education - clearly not the obvious result. I just want you to understand it's not as simple as destroying shrines to get rid of shirk. It might well be though. It might be the quickest way of stopping the practice and the quickest way of getting it out of the psyche of people making it more difficult to be passed on to the younger generations as there is no shrine/building to stand by or enter. There is no definitive way of dealing with this form of shirk but I can see why some think its best to destroy such places.

ElPunto;847618 wrote: Norf, There is no question that shrine worship and saint reverence is absolutely xaram and the worst of sins. But if you think that destroying shrines will solve this misguidance easily I think you're mistaken. If you don't try to change people's hearts through education you haven't really changed them. I was highlighting the real reasons behind the destruction of the shrines (and others elsewhere). The media outlets are as usual doing a terrible job but they're not helped by quotes from the guy below. My message to those involved in these criminal acts is clear: stop the destruction of the religious buildings now," ICC Chief Prosecutor Fatou Bensouda told AFP in an interview in Dakar . How are they religious buildings exactly? Are you sure destruction isn't the easiest way to eradicate these ignorant practices? Centuries of education have clearly failed.
