ummmm most of the people i know think amrican cars are rubbish...hell, even the americans i know (both in dubai and usa) think american cars are rubbish.... Well they are getting better... look at the new Tahoe, best in full-size SUV at braking, turning, and fuel economy among other things. But tha...
Anyone know a good wheel alignment technician for 4x4? I sent to the dealer for replacing a rim, but after rim change, car felt moving to the right. Sent it back again to the dealer with this complaint, now car feels moving to the left. Feels like I'm not going to get the alignment correct.
Ahh - but the Islamic concept of hell is not eternity! It sounds like it is: Allah hath promised the hypocrites Men and women, and the rejecters(sic), of Faith, the fire of Hell: Therein shall they dwell: sufficient is it for them: for them is the curse of Allah, and an enduring punishment-- 9.68 A...
I think shafique was talking about it in general, the verse you quoted is only speaking about hypocrites. That's a rather wishy-washy response, as you can read for yourself the passage also refers to non Muslims i.e., 'rejectors of the Faith' as people who will spend an eternity in hell. Moreover, ...
Abdullah Yusuf Ali's commentary: Kufr, Kafara, Kafir, and derivative forms of the word, imply a deliberate rejection of Faith as opposed to a mistaken idea of Allah or faith, which is not consistent with an ernest desire to see the truth. Where there is sch desire, the Grace and Mercy of Allah give...
Yes, People are always going to insult any famous perosn.. does not matter if they are religious or not.. but there are some limits which should never be crossed.

What is wrong in this article? http://www.islamonline.net/english/Science/2002/09/article13.shtml Continental orogenic belts are the result of plate boundary interaction, which can take place between oceanic and continental lithospheric plates that reaches its climax when two continents come into co...
The quotes do corroborate the Quranic verses about mountains being like pegs and also reducing earthquakes. Mountains like pegs is clear analogy for mountains with their roots. It is interesting acutally, and I doubt it that it was possible to know 1600 years ago that mountains go deep down like pe...
"oh come on how does biology explain to humans how our digestive system is desgined?" Product of evolution over billion of years. "are you saying that there was no force behind all this???" Well, technically it would be force of nature. "i do agree with you man is the worst...
So allow me to summarize what I learnt today. The preservation of the Quran during the first 30 years depended on recitals. Before the standardized Quran was written, there were minor differences between different written versions. Not comprosing the message though. Shafique, I know you always like...
Both are good but I'll wait for 2009 models. Volvo and Murano has very good one coming. I'm not sure VW will change or not. Imo, Acura MDX is better than all 3, but I couldn't find it in UAE.
It is by Honda but I think Honda has kept it as a different agency. Anyway, I checked with Al-Futtaim, they don't have it. It has to be imported what I heard.
I'm not FD :) So allow me to summarize what I learnt today. The preservation of the Quran during the first 30 years depended on recitals.

I think you will find F word in all common english dictionaries; for example, you can find F word on http://www.merriam-webster.com Perhaps not in school dictionaries or childrens dictionaries. this is the best (in comparison with other crappy ones) arabic to english dictionary I found and there is ...

Masturbation is mainly considered big sin among shia scholars.

These two verses comes to mind: It is not Al-Birr (piety, righteousness, and obedience to Allâh, etc.) that you turn your faces towards east and (or) west (in prayers); but Al-Birr is (the quality of) the one who believes in Allâh, the Last Day, the Angels, the Book, the Prophets and gives his wealt...
I didn't hear the answer to the Q: who is more of a brother: a Hebrew to a Hebrew or a Hebrew to an Arab? Something doesn't seem right with your question. God was pointing to Hebrews and said their brethren, if it was from among Hebrews than it makes more sense that God would have said "I'll r...
