Self Esteem Issues in Muslim Youth
ear2ear:
I’m on the fly right now, but this is a serious issue. It’s an issue that, if we don’t address now, is going to compound even more with the next generation of Muslims born in this country. I know I’m going to come off as a lecturer. Haha. Instead just call me a hater.
A few quick points though:
There is nothing tough about growing up Muslim in America. You don’t have to compromise...

My day with the Christian
remorsecode:
I had such a deep and insightful conversation today and to be honest it really does tear my heart apart to know that I got on so well, one of the best conversations I’ve ever had with a Christian yet at the same time I argue to the point of feeling hatred with someone who is meant to be under the same religion as me. They believes Jesus is GOD - you know, that’s the worst thing we...
constantlyhard asked: Assalamu'alaikum warahmatullah, fellow Muslim. I would like to ask if there is anything against downloading al-Qur'aan into your smartphone? As with the physical Qur'an, shouldn't it be treated with respect (i.e. not to be brought into toilets, and placed below the waist)? Jazakallah, wassalamu'alaikum :)

say-bismillah asked: Asalam o alakum, I just wanted to know if you would have any information regarding a woman marrying someone who her parents do not think is a good suitor for her, meaning they feel like he is disrespectful and she still gets married to him islamically, Is this marriage still valid, even though she did not get permission from her wali and did it behind their backs.

God made me feel cold all the time on purpose. So we can sit together, keep each other warm, and grow in Him together with deep discussions and prayer.
susanherrera asked: Hello. I am a Christian and I have never asked this question to anyone. I am going to be honest and I was curious to know what you think and your opinion. I live in the united states and I have always worn jeans and sneakers and t-shirts. Though, recently I have considered changing my entire wordrobe the same as a female muslim. I don't know what is the name of the attire the women wear. I...

Really grateful.
insidemyheaad:
I saw that picture of the woman who was taking off another woman’s hijab. The cartoon one and I saw the comments on it. And I really never thought about it. I mean I wear the hijab and I have for the past two years and I realized that not once have I ever had to worry about someone discriminating me so much to the point that they would rip the scarf off my head. I think it just...

A new friend
zombiejihadi:
I have been having a wonderful discussion with a shi’a Muslim, whom I have a lot of respect for. We differ on a few critical things and we have been doing nothing but enlightening each other on our beliefs. And we have managed to do it in a peaceful and respectful manner.
What I have found upsetting about our conversation is the fact that I am the first Muslim of a particular...

Best time to make dua
forthesakeofallah:
There are certain times dua (supplication) is more likely to be accepted by Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) as mentioned by Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam). These times are as follows:
1. The Last Third Of The Night
Abu Hurairah (radiAllahu anhu) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: ‘In the last third of every night our Rabb (Cherisher and Sustainer)...

The etiquette of Dua
forthesakeofallah:
[From “The Book of Dua” By Shaikh Hussain Al- Awaaishah]
1. Ask with absolute resolve, and believe with certainty that your dua will be answered.
The Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa salaam said: “ When one of you makes dua he should not say, ‘O Allah, forgive me if you wish, have mercy on me if you wish, give me provision if you wish’, but he should ask with resolve because he...

rumiandshit:
Yes, take pride in the fact that you are Muslim. Be happy you were blessed with this religion and you are part of our Ummah but don’t be arrogant. Too many people allow themselves to fall into the “I’ve found Allah and you haven’t so have fun in Hell” mind set.
Do you honestly think because you call yourself a Muslim you are protected from Hell? Even the Prophet Muhammad (saws)...

“The West interprets veiling as repression of women and suppression of their sexuality. But when I traveled in Muslim countries and was invited to join a discussion in women-only settings within Muslim homes, I learned that Muslim attitudes toward women’s appearance and sexuality are not rooted in repression, but in a strong sense of public versus private, of what is due to God and what is due to...

Togetherness
noordinarymuslim:
You can tell someone what they are doing is not religiously correct all you want. You can give them naseehas and show them the scripture. You can tell them they are going to hell from now till judgement day.
You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.
If you have done what you can, and someone does not want to change their habits, etc., then it is no longer...
