I don't usually wear shoes as I prefer to go barefoot.
I need to have my haircut and not sure whether I should wear shoes or if it is okay to go barefoot.
What should I say if they ask where my shoes are?
Do I need to ask them up-front whether it is okay for me to be barefooted?

I was thinking about this last night; if God really is all-powerful, surely the concept of goodness and holiness in mankind (regardless of religious denomination) is more important than squabbling over the particulars of the varying interpretations of the core message of gentleness that all faith groups share?

Now I know I'll get Christians saying, 'but God says to worship him our way, it says so in the bible,', and the Muslims will say, 'but God says to worship him our way, it says so in the Koran,', but doesn't this just add gravity to my argument?

I am not trying to be offensive as I respect everyone's beliefs, and I am not the sharpest tool in the box either, but do I not have a point?

Thanks for all open-minded and polite answers.

Assalaam Alaykum

I started a job in Islamic school and was put on trail to see whether I was suited to it. Alhamdulillah they agreed I was. However the head wanted me to work 5 days but I cannot as I am at uni on Friday (doing my degree). He asked me to drop my degree so I could work there full time. I explained I couldn't. He then had a word with the teacher and said it may not be possible for her to have the job.

So I thought Alhamdulillah it doesn't matter. So I didn't turn up the next day (as I needed to look for another job as it is linked with my degree) yet the teacher said the head is upset you didn't come in, he can't beleive you did that... I was shocked as I didnt do anything worng. I misunderstood the situation and assumed he was going to tell me to leave.

I rung and texted the head apologizing, yet he hasn't got back to me. Th teacher really needs me there but I dont want to go till it is cleared with the head. What should I do? Leave it how it is or ring again?

Becuase mankind has polluted our environment, caused wars, committed crimes, and is still evolving. Were we made to be just apes or did someone such as Adam & Eve become a mistake? Was the intention of god to have this happen to us? Why did he make a fruit of all knowing in the garden of eden? If he knows all then was it planned. Such as our pollution to the environment and wars. Why were we created? So many questions and no answers?

I mean, he is uneducated and he is a Christian, but it’s not at all unusual for a Christian to be uneducated and he is most definitely not the only uneducated Christian in a position of power. And there’s different levels of power in democracies where the Christian religion is the predominant motivating force. You might say that George Bush is the final stage of power; he is literally the mindless puppet that dangles on strings, strings held firmly in the sweaty grasp of merciless manipulators, manipulators that hold the public within an all consuming delusion - Christianity.

Quite frankly Im sick of it.

Seriously what are you trying to prove? Do you think you are more superior or do you think you know more than the other? To be bluntly honest, when you argue you look stupid, very stupid.

Next time if your beliefs are being slandered you would want to defend it, right, well how about just ignoring it next time? Because thats his device, he wants to aggravate you and when you reply saying things like "you have demons!!" you are falling into their trap.

You both think your right. If so, then if your reasons contradicted the others beliefs as you say they do (which none of you actually have), then there would be no need to argue. so all your left with is a bias belief.

Finally the saddest thing is; most of you don't even care why your fighting, you just do it because you are plainly arrogant people who are afraid, and must hide behind YA to do harm. So Christians just ignore atheist slanders, and atheist GET OUT OF THE RELIGION AND SPIRITUALITY SECTION!

And should she stop wearing it because she is wearing a symbol of Muslim woman's opression.


This question is for all those that think Muslim women are oppressed if they wear a (hijab) headscarf.
Or that they shouldn't wear it even if they want because it is a symbol of man's control over women.
Or that Muslim women in the west shouldn't wear it because 'When in Rome'

lets say president George w Bush....

When he was Governor of Texas he signed a record number of death sentences.. Killing....

When he became President, he sent troops off to war and plains off to bomb, Killing....

And he's a born again christian..... How does that work?

Why are Christians so keen to break that commandment?

but do not mean it in your heart what will happen?

Like if you are sitting with a group of friends and they all start talking about how Christians are so stupid and then they ask you what your opinion is and you say "Christ never existed" but you know in your heart that he did (does) and you regret that but never confess it in a prayer or ask forgiveness with it what will the result be.

Basically what I am asking is that if you sin and acknowledge with you heart that you have sinned does it matter if you ask for forgiveness for that sin in prayer since God knows what you are thinking and what you trully believe?

The same sex relationship is one of the issue here in the country. Why most people misunderstood this kind of relationship? They can't hardly accept that not all guys ang gals want to be in opposite sex,some people wanted the love of the same sex mates. They hate GAY's, LESBIAN's and other related personality. Why they can't just give regard to them? What is the reason why they hate homosexualy?
