its a common practice everywhere, misyar marriage is one word for it, another is Orfy marriage, also for the same reason...

some dont get married and still sleep around, then at the end of the year go and to mecca for piligramage, and they consider everything forgiven, particularly saudis..

you shouldnt blame race like you do,

an indian educated in the states, uk or aus will get a significantly higher salary than his counterpart educated in mumbai.


its about teaching methodology of thought, rather than educating with books.

i cant speak for all industries, but when it comes to engineering and architecture, its not 1+1=2 each person is different, and his personal vision, creation, and pattern of thought makes all the difference from ending up with a stock standard box to a marvel that will stand the test of time while b...

whats more worrying is, on my way to work i stopped and got some supplies 2 HP ink cartridges 1 brother toner 1 bundle of A4 paper some files 550 freaking dirhams!!! the first time i came here, 100 dirhams used to fill my shopping cart to its brim, now 100 dirhams does practically nothing. raw timbe...

If I cannot have 'the slightest knowledge' of what form of being I will be in the afterlife, then that precludes that I will see, feel or sense in the way I do on earth - because I can experience these things and therefore it cannot be like that in the afterlife. i actually laughed at this logic, f...

As Ian rightly said, whilst there are people willing to work for such little cash, others will continue to take advantage of that. Look at construction workers, or compound maintenance guys who take home less than 1,000 Dhs a month. Sadly for alot of people, it's take crappy money and live in crapp...

its in a really odd position and stands out really strange either way... its hell out of place where it is, im sure it could benifit from going elsewhere

there's no logic behind banning last.fm

im off, and i only get friday off normally, so im wrapt!

completely agree, so whats this talk of virgins, boys, gold this, silver that, comfortable couches, food, trees... arent these things all made of atoms? They are all metaphors - its like describing a colour to a blind person, you say it is a 'hot' colour, or a 'cold' colour. Describing heaven as a ...

Hmmm was just thinking recently after visiting quite a few friends in their apartments/villas, that professional adults here are being forced to live like students because no-one can afford a place of their own. It's all a bit rubbish really isn't it?! I mean if you're sharing with 2, 3 or 4 other ...

It's what I have been taught 56v61 means and there are many Hadith that make it clear that we won't have physical bodies in the after-life. I am told that the Arabic meaning of the verse makes it clear that this is the case - would you mind looking up the verse and telling me what you think it mean...

the conclusive evidence is oil spill on the road - end this topic.

it is important to remember, current pricing is UNREALISTIC any which way you look at it. if you can't afford the current pricing that does not mean its unrealistic. at the moment Demand is more than supply... however, it can be true to have a stable pricing after most of the project construction i...

they dont even have zip codes.

As an Arab & a Muslim, when it comes to marriage it's absolutely important to have a virgin partner. It's like a fact in all Arab societies even non-Muslims in my country think the same way!! Arabs (Muslims & non-Muslims) look at the girl who lost her virginity before marriage as a wh0re; t...

I find it very strange that he was one really sinful prophet. I'm not sure if he ever repented from his sins. That's such a Christian thing to say, isn't it? ha. Christianity is often accused of inherent misogyny, I think there is some truth in this accusation. But Jesus' teachings were meant to be...

the point is its hard to take a prophet seriously with his colourful history. if u havent said that before shafique, excuse my failing memory - i recall you did.. i maybe wrong. of course that directly influences this thread about quranic integrity, it was he that supposedly learnt all this, and rec...
