This is very interesting to see! Photos of Children around the world on how their lives are! Some are rich, poor, different ethnicites, etc. Each child has his own story! Remember to say Alhamduillah for what Allah swt has blessed you with! :wub: http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/44077710/displaymode/1247?beginSlide=1

two passages from "Restatement of the history of islam" that i found particularly interesting.. i would like to share. A certain woman, one Umm Aufa al-Abdiyya, once asked Ayesha: "O mother of believers, what is your opinion about a woman who kills her own child?" Ayesha said that such a woman would be thrown into hell. Umm Aufa further asked: "What will happen to a woman who killed more than 20,000 of her children at one time and one place? (referring to the battle of the camel)." Ayesha was incensed at the insinuation, and yelled scram at Umm Aufa. (Iqd-ul-Farid, vol. III, p. 108). On one occasion, she sent a messenger to her nephew, Ibn Abil-Ateeq, asking him to send his mule to her for riding. When her nephew received the message, he said to the messenger: "Tell the mother of believers that by God, we have not washed the stains of the blood shed in the battle of the camel yet. Does she now want to start a battle of the mule?" (Baladhuri in Ansab al-Ashraf, vol. I, page 431) O consorts of the Prophet! If any of you were guilty of evident unseemly conduct, the punishment would be doubled to her, and that is easy for God. (Chapter 33; verse 30)

Salam brothers & sisters, A verse from the Qur'an which indicates that the remaining 9 are infallible: (17:77) : "[This was Our) way with the apostles we sent before you, and you will find no alteration in any of our methods” Allah s.w.t is informing us that we will find no alteration in any of his methods, includig the infallibility of the prophet (pbuh&hf)'s successors, so if the first three (Ali, Hassan & Hussein a.s) were directly spoken of as infallible in verse 33:33, this verse (17:77) proves the remaining 9 as also infallible, because IF they wern't then that would go against the Holy Qur'an, and that would mean that there is alteration in Allah s.w.t's methods, clearly the Qur'an indicates that there isn't so there is no question in regards to that. Verse 33:33 speaks of the first 5 being infallible, verse 17:77 indicates a confirmation of the remaining 9 being infallible, 5 + 9 = 14. These are clear signs from the principle perspective of Islam, hope it helped, wasallam.

I wanted to send this to the list earlier. Here are a friend's observations and "Conversion Manual" when I argue with our Sunni brothers. There might be other manuals out there but this one has worked for me so far :). *** Important Note*** All Arguments should preferably be in email/written form. Do not waste your breath on it. Force them to READ not listen. Genuine ones will read and convert. Non genuine ones will quit bothering you. Guaranteed. PRECONDITIONS 1. Have a sympathetic attitude towards Sunnis. Feel sorry for them that apparently confessing Islam, they are still so far away from the real message.Do not feel mad at them. Do not show your ingrain anger over Saqifa and Karbala. These poor simplistic brothers (sisters) of ours are genuinely brainwashed for ages and are worthy of our compassion, not anger. 2. Never get defensive on the questions they ask us. They mostly ask us benign questions such as alam, tazia, zuljinah which are at most mustahib but not wajib. They might also ask about mutah and divorce, having belief in those are wajib but practicing those are not. Key here is "do not get defensive". 3. Use the "Sunni Itch" in your favor. Notice how during every Muharram, your Sunni friends suddenly realize that you are a Shia and start asking questions primarily about the topics listed above. I call this "Sunni Itch". Here's how to channel this "Sunni itch" to cast doubt about their religion. Once you do that, they become conditioned to come to the right path except a majority of those who are plain stupid to see the light or have "seals on their hearts" as Allah has said in Quran. Almost none of them would ever denounce Islam so do not fear that you are going to make anyone reject Islam through your discussions. DISCUSSION CONDUCT 4. Never abuse Umer, Abu Baker, & Usman. Sunnis are programmed to revere them so deeply that most Sunnis would accept the insults to the Prophet (sawaw) but would be found justifying the actions of Sahaba. Show hadith, events, and instances from Sunni literature which breaks this infallible status of the Sahaba from Sunni psyche. 5. Keep repeating this line - "no one has the right to change the sharia' of Prophet except for Allah and Prophet" while repeating the changes and innovations brought in by primarily Umer (others were too simplistic or ignorant to add things in the religion anyway). 6. Whenever discuss the crimes of these BIG THREE (Umer, Abu Baker, Usman), DO NOT be disrespectful. 7. Whenever discuss the crimes of Abu-Sufyan, Muawiah, and Yazeed, BE VERY disrespectful. Still do not use the foul language. 8. Your Sunni friend will soon notice this which you could use to argue later as how complacent the BIG THREE were in planting the Muawiah gang in Syria and thus implicate the BIG THREE in the Karbala crimes as well. Then you could take them back to Saqifa. 9. Hazrat Ayesha - try to avoid discussing her saying you do not want to discuss her since she was one of the wives of the prophet (sawaw). Gain higher moral ground by saying that certain things need not be mentioned due to her being one of the "mothers of momineen". This is also making this itch incredibly unbearable which you could use later in your advantage. Of-course discussion of faux-Islamic history can not be completed without her but she is the BIGGEST DEMAGOGUE Sunnis have and you could use her as your last big bang. 10. Arguing succession to prophet-hood - there are two groups of Sunnis. a. Half of them claim Abu Bakr was "nominated". Ask "nominated" group to show proof from hadith. Refute their false hadith with bunch of Ghadeer hadith from their books. "Nominated" group is more dogmatic so argue based on hadith and Quran. b. Other half claim Abu Bakr was "elected". Ask "elected" group as to why the later generation of Muslims should abide by that election anyway. "elected" group is relatively more logical and you can at least get them accept your point of view based on sound argument. 11. Sunnis for most part not knowing their religion, swindle between hadith and Quran. Once you checkmate them on hadith, they will claim that let's argue only based on Quran. It is important that you bring them to say this. Because once they come to say "let's argue based on Quran", Quran is full of clear ayat which could be used to support your claim. ATTACK 1. Have your Sunni friend count how many salat he (she) has prayed so far in life. Ask the importance of "wudhu". Show ayat of Quran according to which they perform wrong wudhu. 2. Ask to count "sawm" fasts he (she) has done in life time. Show ayat of Quran that all his (her) fasts were "broken" and are invalid according to Quran since they could not wait another 15 minutes. 3. Number of salats = 5, number of times to read that salat = 3. prove it according to Quran. Ask them why and according to which hadith they go against it. You will being them to say that "it is optional" - invite them to pray magrib and isha with you together one after another. Remember for Sunnis, praying and fasting are among the five pillars of their religion. Your attack on them performing these wrong will go a long way. 4. Use hadith saqlain - the famous hadith quoted in Sunni and Shia sources both. Ask them to show you the hadith of "Quran and Sunna". 5. Never let them come back to discuss "alam, tazia, zuljinah" or "mutah, divorce, or sajdigah". Once they will understand Imamat, these things will get cleared in no time. 6. Keep on offensive on other things Sunnis do wrong. Never let them take the podium to have you justify your faith. 7. Bottom line - Keep them on defensive. There are two benefits to it - a. Most important, you have conveyed the true religion of prophet Muhammad (sawaw) to them. Now they would not be able to complain on the day of judgment. b. The least, you have got a Sunni monkey off your back. More likely he (she) would not bother you again. 8. Never sever ties with your Sunni brothers. Always include yourself in their functions etc. Always be their friends. How else would we have them listen to the real story of Islam? And most important of all, always stress on unity between various currents of Islam. Sunnis are misled confused folks but still, they are Muslims and should be treated as such. (this line is in light of instructions of Imam Sadiq (sa)). PREPARE YOURSELF 1. Read and use books such as "Peshawar Nights", "Then I was guided", "Shia by Ay. Tabatabai'". 2. Read your Quran. I've found Agha Mehdi Puya's tafseer very helpful. Maulana Farman Ali's is excellent as well. 3. When you find yourself out of proofs, visit www.al-islam.org and search. 4. Most important of all, ask for help from Imam of Time (af) before starting this discussion. Pray for the lost Sunni soul to come to the right path. Sincerity to this effect also goes a long way. Don't argue for your ego... 5. Find the real un-edited Siha-e-Satta if you can. FOLLOWUP 1. Pretty much during the course of all this Sunni belief shattering process, you have created following feeling in your Sunni subject (I meant brother/sister). a. Depression b. Anger c. Self Pity d. DOUBT 2. By this time he (she) has also recognized that you are a tough nut so make sure they don't run away saying "we can not judge" - a famous Sunni line of retreat. 3. Be persistent. Keep bringing them to the discussion, keep sending them emails of the stuff which goes in line of your discussion. DO NOT let them off the hook. THEY started the discussion. YOU end it. Talk to them about the stuff you emailed them. Keep asking them until either they do "tabarra" on Umer and the team in-front of you :), at which time they will ask more questions and inshAllah see the light, or apologize and ask you not to bother them again... Good luck arguing -

That is a very good question. You also need to ask yourself how come the wives of the Prophet [pbuh] are part of Ayath-e-Tatheer when there were only 5 covered by the blanket???

I clearly remember the 92 LA riots, they were just the same, but they used guns. The US, unlike Britain, has been very pro-active in preparing police http://www.bobtuskin.com/2011/07/24/pentagon-to-deploy-20000-troops-in-conus-for-civil-unrest-%E2%80%93-possible-threats-to-populace/ for riot warfare. They expect things to break-out soon, which they will in the next year or so. Cameron has asked the US for some tips.

Whos clever enough to create a shiachat app..im sure it will make our lives so much easier?!?!?

Salaam, Imam Ali (as) just let abu bakr do what he wants to do, it wont make a difference, as Imam Ali (as) was still the Imam. Imam ali clearly spoke about the self proclaimed caliph in his sermons. Just read Najul Balagha and you will know. Imam Ali (as) didnt want to fight for this wordly position of Prime minister (you can call that, as its not divinely appointed) as it will create a civil war, exactly what he doesnt want. Instead he just carried out leading his shias, those who came to him.

They are lengthy texts. I am going to scan one for you:

http://www.shiachat....asheedslatimya/ Hope this helps :P

Your mercy is more sharper then a knife Your mercy goes deeper then any bullet Your mercy quicker then any posion Your mercy is higher then any cliff Your mercy Your mercy How sweet is this annihilation

The pious salaf you follow were not all alike, there were not all wise and were not all scholars, not like Ali (as). You should follow the best and leave the rest. And those who followed them all indiscriminately also kept that ignorant attitude. Did you see those Hadiths of Imam Ali Reza (as)? He argued against this belief of your's in seeing Allah from the Quran. And if you ever read the hadiths of Ali (as) regarding Allah you would not claim the Aal e Muhammd held such simplistic beliefs such as yours Here you go do yourself a favor and read this http://www.al-islam....anthology/1.htm And have you ever read the greek philosophers? to pooh-pooh them like that? They were right about many things, you should read the dialogues of Plato. Imam Ali (as) said Acquire wisdom and truth from whomever you can because even an apostate can have them but unless they are passed over to a faithful Muslim and become part of wisdom and truth that he possesses, they have a confused existence in the minds of apostates. Knowledge and wisdom are really the privilege of a faithful Muslim. If you have lost them, get them back even though you may have to get them from the apostates. When we say 'the hands of justice' do we mean that justice literally has hands? When Allah is referes to himself in the Quran in the plural sense, in the regal 'we' does his mean Allah is not one? Also look at this verse in the Quran, [Yusufali 11:56] "I put my trust in Allah, My Lord and your Lord! There is not a moving creature, but He hath grasp of its fore-lock. Verily, it is my Lord that is on a straight Path. Is Allah literally holding you by the hair? Yes or No? Now look at this verse [Yusufali 17:72] But those who were blind in this world, will be blind in the hereafter, and most astray from the Path. Now do you know bin Baz right Does verse 17:72 in the Quran prove he is going to hell? The Quran speaks in parables, Allah himself says this. [Pickthal 24:35] Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The similitude of His light is as a niche wherein is a lamp. The lamp is in a glass. The glass is as it were a shining star. (This lamp is) kindled from a blessed tree, an olive neither of the East nor of the West, whose oil would almost glow forth (of itself) though no fire touched it. Light upon light. Allah guideth unto His light whom He will. And Allah speaketh to mankind in allegories, for Allah is Knower of all things. There is no other way to explain something which is beyond our understanding, but to take it simplistically is foolishness.

The Wahhabis are deluding only themselves, if they think their Western/Zionist backed attempted color "revolution" in Syria, has any support among the vast bulk of the Syrian people. http://www.examiner.com/foreign-policy-in-national/wikileaks-cable-reveals-us-funneling-millions-into-syria-opposition-group The terrorist gangs in Syria are mostly only found on the Syrian border regions with: Lebanon with the Hariri gang and "March 14", US puppet monarchy in Jordan, the racist Zionist puppet state Turkey, and the imperialist US controlled Kurdish dominated regions of northwestern Iraq. And even in these places the "protesters" (aka armed terrorist gangs backed with CIA money, arms, and support as even Wikileaks showed) are a minority of people. It is only the deluded Wahhabis and their Western media friends (aka the Zionist Jew controlled Western "mainstream" propaganda media) that are making these claims against Syria. Some of the most glaring errors in the propaganda of the Western "mainstream" media have been when they claim (with absolutely no source) that some of the small "protests" (aka looting and killing) done in the smaller border towns allegedly have: "1.5 million protesters" these cities in most cases are small and don't even have that many people in total! Much less people who would allegedly "come out into the street" for the CIA's attempted color "revolution" against Syria and the resistance bloc. One funny example: http://www.globalres...articleId=25865 'The Hama Affair’ or how 10,000 protestors multiply overnight to be 500,000 in the AFP’s news reports The majority of the Syrian population is concentrated exclusively in the cities of Aleppo and Damascus, and these cities have only witnessed huge pro government rallies. So even if just for the sake of argument we accepted the false assertion that even the majority of these smaller border towns populations allegedly came out and "protested" (aka looted), which they have not, they would still be a small minority of the total Syrian population (again terrorists and looters have either been infiltrators from across the border or mostly border region tribal people, the CIA loves to use for their destabilization tactics like in Baluchistan for example against Iran and Pakistan). The populations of Aleppo and Damascus by themselves are the majority of the Syrian people by far, and even in places were disturbances and riots have occurred only a minority of the people in those places have even taken part! So the "protesters" are a small, small minority of the overall Syrian population. Syria is working on reforms and the people stand by this, the President Bashar al-Assad government has provided well for the Syrian people (despite imperialist Western/Amerikkkan sanctions and threats). The Syrian government makes education, health care, and other necessities free for the Syrian people through a system based on socialism to benefit the people. The President Bashar al-Assad led Syrian government does this, even while being swamped with large amounts of refugees; in the case of Palestinian refugees in Syria (who have been in Syria since the invading Khazar European Zionist criminals ethnically cleansed them out of their homes in Palestine in 1948) and more recently with Iraqi refugees in Syria (who had to flee the imperialist US illegal invasion, occupation, and destruction of the nation and people of Iraq that started in 2003). Note that even these refugees receive free government funded education, health care, food support, job support, etc in Syria The so-called "Ikhwan" aka "Muslim Brotherhood" (that was founded in the 1920s by colonialist British intelligence then occupying Egypt) is a pawn of the Western banksters and Zionists. The Western propaganda "mainstream" media is pushing another imperialist war of aggression on lies. They have already done this in Libya; and their lies were refuted: http://www.indymedia.../06/481209.html "Amnesty: no evidence of mass rape, mercenaries or air strikes by Libyan regime" by Patrick Cockburn In Libya the Western imperialist powers want oil and to stop Gaddafi's planned Gold Dinar currency for Africa (just like the attack on Iraq was about stopping Saddam from trading Iraq's oil in Euros rather than US dollars); in Syria the Western imperialist plan is to attack a resistance supporting nation and the ultimate plan of the Western Zionist neo-con imperialists is to use Syria as a beachhead to launch their ultimate neo-con dream: a military attack on Iran. In Egypt almost everyone was against Hosni Mubarak, in Libya large parts of the country still support Gaddafi it is only the CIA backed "al-Qaeda" aka al-CIA-duh linked "rebels" in the east (who among other things lynch innocent black Libyans and sub-Saharan African migrant workers in Libya) that have in the east a sizable amount of support, and as for Syria the vast, vast bulk of the Syrian people support the Syrian government led by President Bashar al-Assad and trust the reform process. CIA backed so-called "Ikhwan" rebels in Syria: "Syria and US Imperialism" by Sara Flounders http://www.globalres...xt=va&aid=24659 SYRIA: Who is Behind The Protest Movement? Fabricating a Pretext for a US-NATO "Humanitarian Intervention" by Prof. Michel Chossudovsky http://www.globalres...xt=va&aid=24591 Lies and Media Manipulations regarding the Protest Movement in Syria by Pierre Piccinin http://www.globalres...xt=va&aid=25865 Media Disinformation and The Syrian Protest Movement by Voltaire Network http://www.globalres...xt=va&aid=24522 Globalist War Machine Fixates on Syria Syria told to yield to "peaceful" arsonists or suffer Libya's fate. by Tony Cartalucci http://landdestroyer...s-on-syria.html Evidence of U.S. Effort to Arm Syrian Opposition Emerges http://landdestroyer...arm-syrian.html http://www.cbsnews.c...n20054781.shtml And I could go on, as has been said by some the Western imperialist powers are pushing what could be termed deviant "Calvinist Islam", which is a "Islam" (many Wahhabis follow) that is subservient to the World Bank and IMF and believes secretly in the evils of usury "capitalism". That is why spoiled, bourgeois expats are often in the front line of supporting these CIA orchestrated color "revolutions" in different nations. Also before anyone makes claims on it "democracy" doesn't exist anywhere in the world in true direct democracy form. All that exists are corrupt forms of alleged "representative democracy" wherein the corporations and lobbies put in power their puppets anyway. An important point to keep in mind for social justice. http://revcom.us/a/0...n-democracy.htm "In a world marked by profound class divisions and social inequality, to talk about “democracy”—without talking about the class nature of that democracy and which class it serves—is meaningless, and worse. So long as society is divided into classes, there can be no “democracy for all”: one class or another will rule, and it will uphold and promote that kind of democracy which serves its interests and goals. The question is: which class will rule and whether its rule, and its system of democracy, will serve the continuation, or the eventual abolition, of class divisions and the corresponding relations of exploitation, oppression and inequality." The "Calvinist Islam" thugs and pawns of the so-called "Muslim Brotherhood" in both Syria and Egypt (so-called "Ikhwan" were again created as a proxy of colonialist British intelligence occupying Egypt in the 1920s) are all slaves of the Zionist bankers (in the IMF and World Bank); and they preach subservience to Western imperialist bankers and murderous usury "capitalism". In many ways you have resistance heroes like Iran and beloved President Bashar al-Assad led Syria following the path of justice like the sahabi Abu Dharr al-Ghifari (ra) whom many (like Ali Shariati) would say was the first Islamic socialist, whereas the Zionist controlled so-called "Ikhwan" (Western banker puppets) want to follow the path of the despot Uthman ibn Affan and implement a system of usury based, oppression and murdering thieving unjust "capitalism" that oppresses the masses of workers.

Nice try but playing with words to prove that Imam Ali gave allegiance to Abu Bakr due to will of Allah is incorrect. That is because He never accepted Leadership of the first three to be legal, nor did He gave willing allegiance. Instead He remained patient, for a greater cause, and even though his right was taken away from him, he never turned his back on muslims when they sought his advice on social or religious matters. So the question which you should be asking is, "Did Imam Ali tolerate the oppressors and practised patience as per Hukm of the Prophet and Allah?" My answer to that question is, "yes, He did. And we have references to prove that".

I don't really like nasheeds, but this is pretty good this one is also nice to listen to, pretty short though

No one's excluded idiot. Also, Syrians, like Lebanese ARE NOT ARAB, some of us are, especially in the east, but the great majority are from a more noble ancestry. ARAB is a semetic word for Bedouin, desert dweller. Syrians are master merchants and power brokers. The lebs are our farmers/sailors, lol.

You whabbis are finished. We Syrians are the geniuses of geopolitics. I give Saudi Arabia 10 years before the name itself is erased, let alone your population. I and other Syrians will be standing on your nation, enslaving your pathetic populace. Iran of course, will swallow the middle east whole with us. You should start pissing in your pants because without starting WW3, the USA (your power broker) is finished. All the oil in the world won't help you camel jockeys. The hindu/paki above keeps pretending to speak for "Syrian Muslims", loooooooooool. Sorry asshat, we're not that simplistic. We don't identify by religion, not even by ideology. Syrians are very individualistic. Go to hell where you belong.

It was proven over 100 times here. You just came up prob with a different nick... I posted 10s of reports myself from your fellow Zionists' so called independent media where they showed terrorist salafis and qaida were involved in Libya and Syria. All you need to do is to google-search: "Shiachat, armed terrorists in Syria, Libya, Zionist agents" You should get 10s of results. I am not here to take your question little boy! You want a discussion, you gotta comment on everything someone is pointing out. You CANNOT escape or ignore the reality. You ignored everything about your Sunnis brutality and hypocrisy regarding Bahrain, Lebanon war and Iraq... and now you want some kind of list like you are in charge of something here and we are reporting to you Mr. Salafi. Regarding the Kafir-Communist Saddam Hussein, I already discussed this under a different Syrian topic. He was an international puppet, he sold himself to USSR, China, France, Zionists, America, Britain and you name it... just for firing a few bullets towards Israel made him the most anti-Israeli person? What he ever did? With the help of Iran, Lebanon was liberated and Gaza is under the control of your Ikhwani buddies. What about if Iran sends 20 million Iranians to get killed for the sake of a few racist ignorant Arabs? You think that is going to happen while 200 million Arabs eat lambs during the day and have belly dancers during the night and make deals with their Western masters? Those who live and eat like the time of jahilya..! For the sake of such kind of people? You tell me how many Sunni countries ever did something close to what Iran did to Lebanon, Palestine, Bosnia? If 50 Sunni countries had that much of courage as Iran and stood by occupied people, then we would had totally a different world.

It seems I didn't have to go any further to look than this very site! :D One thread I found was http://www.shiachat.com/forum/index.php?/topic/234979967-infallibility-of-imams/, the second page has a lot more relevant ahadith. Brother, please try and use the search feature if you can. The topic has been discussed quite a lot of times before.

I wont will I have mines. Its one special night..why ruin it with music..its like inviting the saytaan to your wedding

Thank you Sister :)

Salaam, if you're only looking for arabic latmiyas/nasheeds you can search for: Nizar al Qatari, Hussein Akraf, Abathar al Halawaji...

though in general, i'm not fan of these kind of posts, this one is pretty good

Thanks for sharing brother. I also read some poetic verses of Hazrat Abdullah Ibn e Abbas about Aysha when she attacked the funeral of Imam Hassan a.s and stopped his burial in Madinatul Munawara close to Prophet (pbuh). " At one time you rode the Camel And now you are riding a mule A time may come when you will be riding an Elephant. O, Aysha you had 1/9th part as inheritance but you usurped the whole of it"

hahaha, this post will just prove this site is overpopulated with pakis... just like the rest of the world.

I have critically analysed all the Sunni reports on this subject. Check out the following link. http://www.shiachat.com/forum/index.php?/topic/70651-did-abu-bakar-led-prayer-when-prophet-was-ill/

baraye ki?

There is no point you posting videos of men being killed by saudi terrorists who join into the crowd and shoot people. And, there are just as gruesome videos showing what the terrorists do to Syrian civilians who the army is trying to protect. TERRORISTS KILL 120 SOLDIERS AND SYRIAN SECURITY FORCES TERRORISTS HANG INNOCENT SYRIAN CIVILIAN http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76JOqC-y8A4 TERRORISTS WHO TERRORIZE THE PROTESTERS SO SECURITY FORCES CAN BE BLAMED http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAVXJomobjg TERRORISTS HIDING BEHIND BUSHES CAUGHT ON CAMERA SHOOTING AT PROTESTERS http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amHAQoDq4uY TERRORIST SNIPERS IN SYRIA AND OTHER ARAB STATES USED TO KILL PROTESTERS These are the people you want to rule Syria?

A yazidi bakri will teach me what is according to shia!!! well this must be one minor sign of Qayamah. You made thread which says "A Question Regarding Infallibility Of The Aimmah" in other words Infallibility of the 12 Imams , 14 Infallible are known as Ma3someen. Muntaqim Force, on 12 August 2011 - 11:33 PM, said: Tell me do you have problem in understanding the Infallible 12 only or you have difficulty with all above four? I hope now you understood why i said Infallible 12 and not 14. Now stop crying and tell me Angels, Prophets and Messengers, Imams, Holy Book Quran out of these you have problem with whose Infallibility because seems you are confused in understand 5 12 14 :)

Hossein's Sister! LOLOLOL! :D Will u give me a free laptop AND a free HTC if i join?

Social Media is the new tool that they will use to shift the world Left, pacify politics and turn the world into a bunch of humanists. Warning, second video depicts the gay rainbow flag and humanist african lezbifriends music like they used in the pantheist humanist movie Avatar Irony? I just used Social Media to speak about social media. The wave is unstoppable. Peace with Israel + a Mass Social Media drive = Lords of Power retain Power.

Haraam is Haraam, so why to play music/songs on any occasion.

The last two hadeeths have been kindly translated by brother Macisaac, may Allah reward him and bless him: [6] عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي نَجْرَانَ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ وَ فُضَيْلٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع فِي رَمَضَانَ تُصَلِّي ثُمَّ تُفْطِرُ إِلَّا أَنْ تَكُونَ مَعَ قَوْمٍ يَنْتَظِرُونَ الْإِفْطَارَ فَإِنْ كُنْتَ مَعَهُمْ فَلَا تُخَالِفْ عَلَيْهِمْ وَ أَفْطِرْ ثُمَّ صَلِّ وَ إِلَّا فَابْدَأْ بِالصَّلَاةِ قُلْتُ وَ لِمَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ حَضَرَكَ فَرْضَانِ الْإِفْطَارُ وَ الصَّلَاةُ فَابْدَأْ بِأَفْضَلِهِمَا وَ أَفْضَلُهُمَا الصَّلَاةُ ثُمَّ قَالَ تُصَلِّي وَ أَنْتَ صَائِمٌ فَتُكْتَبُ صَلَاتُكَ تِلْكَ فَتَخْتِمُ بِالصَّوْمِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ `Ali b. Ibrahim from `Abd ar-Rahman b. Abi Najran from Hammad b. `Isa from Hariz from Zurara and Fudayl from Abu Ja`far عليه السلام In Ramadan you pray then you break your fast unless you are with a group who are waiting for the iftar. So if you are with them then do not disagree with them and break your fast then pray, otherwise then begin with the salat. I said: And why is that? He said: For two obligations have become present to you, the iftar and the salat, so begin with the best of them and the best of them is the salat. Then he said: That you pray while you are fasting and that, your salat, be written and so sealed by the fast is more beloved to me. : [11] عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَحْمَدَ ابْنَيِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِيهِمَا عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ يُسْتَحَبُّ لِلصَّائِمِ إِنْ قَوِيَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُفْطِر `Ali b. al-Hasan from Muhammad and Ahmad the sons of al-Hasan from their father from `Abdullah b. Bukayr from one of our companions from Abu `Abdillah عليه السلام. He said: It is preferable for the faster, if he is able to do that, to pray prior to breaking his fast.

Ziyarat doesn't replace Hajj. It MAY (stress that word) have more reward but doesn't mean we neglect the other. In the same way, Salaatul Layl is seen as one of the greatest acts but it doesn't mean we neglect the obligatory prayers. It's just a way of showing the scale of how great the Ziyarat is. Maybe Imam (as) used the example of Hajj because Ziyarat is similar to Hajj because they are both forms of pilgrimages and involve travelling and the same kind of atmosphere, God knows best. For example, we have a narration that says "one hour of contemplation is better than 70 years of worship." Does that mean we contemplate for an hour tomorrow night and then not worship for the rest of our lives? No - it's just showing the greatness of the act.

Trying dealing with christian zionist that spew venom from their faces when they see any arab in there american country. I have learned that no mattter how much you try to explain to them the 50,000 errors and 20,000 contridictions in the bible. The bible is human made by humans that satan whispered in their ears to curropt ALLAHS true message. Try dealing with them in everyday life and its not easy, so i have decided to stay away from them and let them be as is.

perhaps that is true, but in the average iranian restaurant, they don't seem to use a wide variety of spices. don't get me wrong, the food is still great, in terms of starters and main courses, but there just doesn't seem to be enough variety. Pakistani food has that variety, and tastes really good, the problem with it is, if it is a cow-boy making the food, because of all the spices, it can often launch a full scale assault on your digestive system, also very often in the not so good places, they put way too much oil in the food, i swear often its like having a rainbow on your plate. but when its done well, it is the best (though of course if you like that kind of thing) turkish food is very nice, i'm supirsed it isn't on the list, it is maybe the best food i've ever had, and i haven't even been to turkey.

As compared to... styrofoam? Don't get me wrong, Iranian food can be alright and all, I'm not saying it turns my stomach or what have you, but I'd hardly say it's "rich in flavour", especially if you put it next to the like of the food out of India and Pakistan.

I have heard quite a few opinions on this. I watched a video where they put like 3 flower clips on her hair and it made a huge bump, I don't think this is allowed. I know alot of people who just put a clip in their hair because they don't want to cause breakage from the rubber bands and it doesn't look so bad, I think it depends on where you place it on your head. Besides.........when they make that huge bump they remind me of The Coneheads (have you ever seen that movie?).

Guess whoz gonna win :wub: Paki Food = Heaven on Earth..!

Debater Paki food owns im sorry.. i mean come on.. who wants youghurt for breakfast, lunch and dinner?

I think they are planned riots by the elites, so that they can swoop down and 'rescue' all of us. They are clever with these preemptive deceptions. If they make the chaos and then provide the solution, they are seen as supermen. No one wants to remember that they started the whole ordeal. They started in the Middle East, and now UK. Expect it soon in the US.

The same way women act outside of there house where all non mahram can see them is the same way they should act online because there is no difference, even if people put profiles on private you never know if something may happen and that image may be shown. Im not going to say its haram incase its not but in my opinion its better for them not to. (likewise with men showing their six pacs or w/e on the internet)

RAMADHAN MUBARAK!! RESOLUTION: gain more knowledge on islam and hadith and improve my Akhlak and not miss a prayer! INSHAALLAH! (wasalam)

And..? Have you actually read it? I have, and the vast majority it is exactly that, a critique of dialectical materialism and Marxist philosophy. There's maybe a few pages where he makes mention of Mulla Sadra's metaphysics (not that I particular consider that to be "Islamic" source material either, but putting that aside a moment), while the rest of it is what I mentioned. What's offensive about pointing this out? If you read what I said I even point out I haven't read it all myself unlike the first one, so I'm not really in a position to critique it much. What I have seen of it though (cursorily) and read about it seems to go with the trend that got popular in the Muslim world. That is, reject Marxism/socialism as an unIslamic philosophy while then trying to show Islam as being a better socialism than socialism itself. So, emphasize more on things like state control of the economy, public works and so on. I'm certainly not trying to say he was a Marxist himself, that would be foolish and like I said his Falsafatuna is a largely a critique of Marxism, but the question would be how much of what is being put forward as Islamic economics really is just that, as opposed to taking leftist economic/political ideas that at the time would have been attractive and popular and reading them into the sources. Baqir as-Sadr wasn't even part of the discussion at that point. That said, yes I think that our efforts would be better spent on bringing into English other, more core, works rather than things like criticisms of Marxism that like I said hardly anyone believes in now anyway. Again, and..? Ibn `Arabi thought you and I have pig souls and that we're the ahl al-bid`a deceived by Shaytan while he would also praise a mal`un like Mu`awiya. Khomeini was a follower of him and his school of thought, writing supportive commentaries on his works, even advocating his study to Gorbachev in that letter he wrote to him (while neglecting to mention studying the teachings of our Imams (as)). Read his lectures on Fatiha. There you can find him saying such things as: "Regardless of the mode and degree of our perception, reality remains what it is. And the reality is this: there is nothing other than God Almighty, whatever is, is He. The manifestation is not only His; it is also He." If that's not pantheism (or panentheism if you prefer), I don't know what is. Yes, I do believe people should read the hadiths of our Imams (as). You don't think there is a danger of people misinterpreting the Quran too? Did the Ma`sumeen (as) only teach howza graduates, and say to everyone else that they couldn't listen to their words while they were in their current "dirtbag state"?

Salam, Personally i see nothing wrong with it unless you look at the pictures they upload in a wrong way. I think it would be more of a precaution kind of thing to delete them type of girls from your facebook rather than islamic. Thats my personal opinion. Wsalam.

(salam) what exactly are the people celebrating?.........the oppression in iran?.........LOL

Salaam alaikum, I think this topic should be called Shia astronomy, not astrology. waSalaam, Hajar
