Do you feel malice towards anyone? Who? What do you think of this quote?

"From morning until night and from night until morning
keep your heart free from malice towards anyone.

A perfect Muslim is one from whose tongue and hands mankind is safe.

Islam is purity of speech and hospitality"

they dont do it for attention nor because men make them wear it
i just wanna clarify sth
why are we all here?
why have we been created?
why is it that humans overrule other creatures,why wont it be the other way around,like man being driven around by a dog?
there must be something we are all here for,more than fun,more than just eating,drinking and sleeping
dont u agree?
why we,humans,have these gorgeous brains
we are the ones to invent
to create.....using these brains
we,the muslims,believe that god created us for 1 thing
just to worship him alone
thats what islam means
in arabic it means to serve your god lone
we are all his worshipers
so thats why we are here
wearing hijab protects a woman
her own beauty
so that she is protected like a precious stone.....besides god told us to do so
so we r all his slaves
and we shall 4ever be his worshipers

peace

Blind faith is the only answer.

Just look on yahooanswers and see the dozens of perfectly rational questions the religious are faced with and anybody with an ounce of brains can see they have no answers or explanations for even one of them.

I mean in today;'s world medical and physical sciences alone have exposed and degraded the Bible and all of its content. from Genisis right on through.
Everybody knows none of it would hold up in court of law or any real scrutiny.
Yet you people cling to it like barnacles...unyielding...

Its OK with me. I just wish you wouldn't vote.

Why is so hard for you to understand that Jesus is the only way of salvation? You are choosing to be tortured in hell,doomed for the eternity, why is it so hard to convert? God loves you and you are not accepting his gift, why do you choose to burn in hell?

...some straight people ask you if you are gay, and when you tell them you are, the next thing they ask you is, "Hey, I hope you will not hit on me?" As if every gay person is after them or they are God's gift to mankind that no one can resist.

Sometimes, I wish I had a 1,000 tonne brick for such occasions. LOL.

My bf is Muslim. Im in the process of converting. We both know that we want to spend the rest of our lives with the other. The problem lies with his family. There are VERY traditional Muslims (we aren't suppose to be dating). They don't know about me. My bf is torn between tradition and following his heart. He is a good person and doesn't want to hurt his parents by breaking tradition, but he also wants to marry someone based on love. If you know/understand Muslim tradition then you know our dilemma. Im a respectable good girl. I value family. Im college and working towards my goals. If they got to know the real me, I think they would accept me. But I don't they will ever even try because Im "American." Any advice?

What is your opinion on this?

to be humble amidst the vicissitudes of fortune;

I live in Florida and today when I picked up my brother's G.Q July issue, yes guys the one with Jessica Biel on the cover, there was this article by James O'brien. It was about Tom Monaghan. He is the "Domino Pizza millionaire". He is also a co-founder of Ave Maria, a Catholic community. There'll be "no contraception or pronography" or other things that might derail the catholics from their religion in this neighborhood.
What I want to know is what do you think about this? Where is the integration? America's a melting pot right? They need to separate themselves from other's? And if anybody has read it, do they allow Jews, Muslims and other non catholics into their community? What I read so far, it seems to be an ONLY CATHOLICS place.
I have mix feeling about this because I haven't read the whole issue. Its 5 a.m and I'm sleepy. But can you imagine this?

After Adam and Eve eat the fruit from the tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, why was their nakedness the first thing that popped into their heads?

Shouldn't it have been, "Holy sh*t! We just did a very bad thing"?


While we're on the subject:

If Eve ate the fruit first, why didn't she realize she was naked until Adam had also eaten?

Think of this as if you were in my situation... and don't be derogatory towards me because I have not been to you. I was at a store I almost never go to trying to find some nice clothes for a big dinner I ha to goto later on that evening. As I'm walking into he womens dressing room to try on the clothes I walk past two women talking in (by the "put away clothes" rack) when someone taps me on the shoulder saying "excuse me ma'am, you can only have 5 items. Purturbed at the way she said it and the fact she touched me (I have no idea where he hands have been) I put one of the articles of clothing on the rack next to me and then start to walk, she says from behind me "well can i count them (she has a very demeaning tone) and I say no because I have five and begin to walk, I hear her say something under her breathe and I say very loudly "well if you weren't such a b**** i would have been nicer, walk into the dressing room and say loudly again bc of how mad i now am "it's not like im going
