I know we should be careful when on the internet, because there are scammers out there, however we should still give 70 excuses

You guys serious?! turned out to be a scam?!?1

Assalamu Alaykum,

I'm 22, currently living in America in PA, I don't go to school but I'm a 'transient retail merchant.' I'm very interested in becoming more involved, knowledge and observant in regards to the deen, why I'm here. I wasn't born into any religion, I just found Islaam and by extension Shi'a Islaam. I am originally from Romania. I love to do all sorts of things but mainly read but I'm also into video games, roller blading, film, hockey, history, collecting antiques, steam punk, noise, religion/theology, traveling/exploring, and adrenaline fueled activities.

[Logical Islam 240]

I am logical islam. I am an idea, a philosophy which wishes to find out what pure islam is and the truth and nothing but the truth. Any act i do, i want to know who said i have to do it, why i have to do it, and the logical connection. I know how atheists think having discussed and debated with so many, i have sunni family - though i'm shia- and though i am by no means a liberal, i feel shia's today have allowed culture to be influenced into their religion.

If every muslim was educated, though for themselves, went outside their house (culture religion) and stopped believing this esoteric idea that their own humans are najis and to only talk to 'shia's' our world would be a better place.

We need full 'halal' integration.

I am an idea supported by many.

Nahjul Balagha is a book compiled of the letters, sermons and sayings of Imam Ali AS. Although he has many famous sayings, some people at ShiaChat, and in the real world, like to mention this one: "Woman is a scorpion whose grip is sweet." Whenever this saying is written at ShiaChat, people argue about it. I am not a religious scholar to give any tafsir of this, but as a woman, a wife and mother, I think that Imam Ali AS was not saying that all women are like scorpions. Certainly he was not talking about his own holy wife Fatima Zahra AS or his own precious daughter Bibi Zainab AS. Imam Ali AS said good things about women, too, but people do not remember those. In Sermon Number 12, he said there are women who are protecting his Shias in their wombs and when they grow up they will strengthen our faith.

Salam to everyone here

Salam, nice to find another doc on the site. hope your studies continue to go swimmingly, and piece of advice from someone specialising, take a nice speciality where you won't spend your saturday morning (3 am) looking at the contents of a patient's stoma bag. dermatology is much more civil. are you sure it's not too late to go back to dentistry?? the foul mouths can be a turn off, but trust me the good hours and excellent pay will make a difference

Anyways, as for me, i'm Mohammad, 26. Working in Queensland at the moment (now in a town where the human to sheep population is 1 to 93.. i just made that up, but it might as well be true).

[salat un salami 3]

(salam) to all,

not sure if someone is reading the introduction thread, but y not give it a try:

I'm 21 yrs born and raised in germany, mother is greek, father is european mix, mostly german and estonian =)

Studying something atm but isnt fulfilling my need of knowledge about the diin so I'll study theology beginning of next wintersemester.

I have problems with accepting the concept of the imamate, eventhough I have love for the ahlulbayt and do accept Imam Ali as a successor to our prophet saws.

Since my fiance is shia, I dont have any other choice but to deal with this topic ;)

I wasnt registered on a forum/chat since ages, but why not give it a try again, since I often find interesting topics/discussions on this site!

my nickname is just a german wordplay so pls dont feel offended :angel:

insha'Allah i will become an active member here and can share with my brothers and sisters

Salams everyone, I registered in August 2012 but have never posted. I have always been more of a reader, I've been browsing this forum for about 3 years. Am a (sunni) Muslim from South Wales area of the uk. I haven't joined this forum to debate or argue with people. I've always enjoyed reading about Islam weather it's Sunni or Shia reading materials. Am going to carry on reading and maybe ask questions when I need to. Please feel free to ask me anything also.
