  • Prepared by Muhammad AlShareef, Reprinted from Islamway.com . Comments in green are from me, bint ul Islam. 1. Dress up for your wife, look clean and smell good. When was the last time us men went shopping for designer pajamas? Just like the husband wants his wife to look nice for him, she also wants her husband to dress up for her too. Remember that Rasul Allah - sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam - would always start with Miswak when returning home and always loved the sweetest smells. (Dress up for your wife... Read More

 
  • Everything in the world draws something to itself: infidelity draws the faithless, and goodness, the one who is rightly guided. Both magnet and amber attract: whether you are iron or straw, you will be drawn. If you are straw, you will be drawn to the amber; and if you are iron, you will be pulled to the magnet. When anyone is not associated with the good, he inevitably becomes a neighbour to the corrupt. ~~ Mathnawi 4, 1633-1636

  • Has anyone seen this mock-umentary... It's All Gone Pete Tong??? I just saw it a couple weeks ago. Hillarious, DJ version of Spinal Tap. ___________________________________ __________ It's All Gone Pete Tong is a 2004 fictional independent biopic about Frankie Wilde (Paul Kaye), a DJ who goes completely deaf. The title is Cockney rhyming slang for "it's all gone wrong". Several famous DJs appear in the film as "talking heads", giving the film a false sense of authenticity. Carl Cox, Ti?sto, Sarah M...

  • I love my old cafe racer (my '74 BMW R90/6)... but tinkering with a 33 year old vintage bike can be trying when it's your primary mode of transportation during the summer and the bike is being cranky and you're getting late to work because of it. So I decided last summer that I was going to get another bike. The question was just whether I would add on a sportbike or a cruiser. The two bikes I was courting were the Ducati Superbike 749 and the BMW R1200c. They are two equally beautiful but very different mac... Read More

  • Bowl of Saki for 22 April KNOWLEDGE WITHOUT LOVE IS LIFELESS.--Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Hazrat Samuel L. Lewis (Sufi Ahmed Murad Chisti): This is the knowledge of the lower worlds which is subject to death.

When man masters these elemental thoughts, when he realizes that principles can be understood only by union with these... Read More

  • Any Arcade Fire fans out there? Would be interested to hear what people think of the new album?

    September 20, 2007 at 12:54am
    just saw them at greek theater in los angeles
    July 19, 2007 at 6:40pm
    @Brown Are you kidding me? Yeah their first album was unstoppable, but their follow up is an achievement rivaling that of Funeral. Even though I like Funeral a tad bit better.
    May 27, 2007 at 9:44pm
    the new album is a mediocre effort, thier first album was far too good for a follow up to be better.

Hidayat will be 90 ... Read More
