An ever-alert reader moves on from the wonders of Ask Imam to a British website for what I take to be Fairly Militant Muslims, notably this analysis of the difference between a lion and a lioness:
What would a lion without a mane look like? That’s right, it would look like a lioness!
Nothing wrong with lioness, its mashallah a beautiful creation of Allah, but it would be wrong for the lion to imitate the lioness.
Now Allah commanded us to keep the beard, mashallah beautifully showing our manhood and Islam to the world, so what does a man look like if he shaves his beard?
He will look like a woman at best, if not a ladyboy faggot.
I mean this, men without beards look seriously gay and should remember that Allah made them that way for a reason.
Not easy to follow the last point. Is the argument that Allah deliberately created seriously gay ladyboy faggots? Or that Allah created men to have beards and so that’s what men must have?
No, I stick with Ask Imam, since he is just more … rigorous. Here he is in full-on agony aunt mode answering a question said to have come from the
Today while I was out shopping on my own (I was in hijaab and burqah), a brother approached me; He asked me questions such as my nationality and if I spoke his language (Arabic). Innocently I answered him thinking that he was looking for something but because he did not speak the language (English) he didn?t know how to ask the shopkeeper something. But then he asked my age and if I lived in the area and out of politeness I answered him.
He asked if I was married and if I could take his number and give it to my dad so that he could speak with him about marrying me. I refused. He then asked what mosque my dad attended and that at jumuah salah on Friday he would approach my dad if he saw him. Many hours later I am thinking that what I did was wrong. Please advise me on whether I was right or wrong in what I did and what I should have done in that situation or what I should do if this situation arises again.
It was incorrect of you to converse with this stranger. Your conversation was unnecessary, hence, prohibited. Should this situation arise in future, refuse to be drawn into conversation by declining to speak from the very beginning.
Slut! Just stay at home:
Can I attend women only functions? Like mehndi, bridal/baby showers? if husband drops off & picks me up?
Mehndi, bridal/baby showers are all un-Islamic customs. A Muslim is not permitted to attend such un-Islamic functions even if the function is open to ladies exclusively.
There is an unrelenting Otherness about all this as far as we decadent Westerners are concerned. But how in practice to deal with its more nasty manifestations such as honour killings?
Should a Christian judge or jury be allowed to take part in any legal process involving a Muslim charged with killing another Muslim – they just won’t understand?
Or is failing to understand some of these oppressive if not inhuman Islamist strictures not a bug but a feature?
