Ramadan

say if i never wanted to get married is this a sin in islam, i dont think that any one would accept me, im not like most typical girls, dont clean or any of that... dont have time.... im into education and have big ambitions, i mean if i do shoose my career path, ill finish university at about 23-24, i like to think myself independant... no need for a man, i know im still young, but would this be okay in islam?
one of my aunts very modern, kinda westernised i suppose is never getting married (doesnt like the asian culture etc) and everyones cool with that... but is this permissible?

Are we not human? I am shocked, disgusted beyond words and this persons mocking and humilation of muslims. And we are branded the terrorist? If his self confessed actions are not terror then i dont know what is. America the enemy is within....

I would like to study Islam and concentrate on the role of women in Islam. Are there any Islamic colleges in America besides Cordoba University? I would like to study there, but they were raided by the FBI a few years back.

Also, I wouldn't mind going to other countries, but keep in mind that I am a woman (regarding Middle Eastern countries). I really really want to study Islam, but I haven't found the right school and program and I will graduate next year.

Thanks your help!

P.S. I have done my own research, but I would like to hear other people's recommendations.

I recently learned that it may be required (I say may because it seems to be debated as to whether or not it's MANDATORY as opposed to virtuous) to grow a fist-long beard and that it is haram to shave it. If this is true, what if you cannot grow a beard that long?

I find that many Muslims living in predominately Muslim society blindly obey their parents and their rules and traditions. On the other hand, I notice that most of Muslims from the West sacrifice a lot for their religion, they defy their parents, they defy their environment just for the sake of Allah s.w.t.

By that I don't mean just converts, but also born Muslims who face obstacles or lack of acceptance from the side of their parents.

Do people really expect that blind obedience to their parents without critical thinking, determination, and awareness of what they're doing will lead them to Paradise?

Once done, the Airbus A380, the world's biggest passenger plane, will be a "flying palace" for Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, the manufacturer announced Monday.

Airbus SAS would not give a specific price tag for the VIP double-decker jet, with its football field-length wings, saying only that it would cost more than the aircraft's list price of $320 million.

Subhanallaah. what a waste of wealth and resources. While muslim children are dying of malnutrition in many parts of the world.

what do you guys think?

I was wondering from the Sisters if you would ever wear it why or why not, and From the Brothers what would you think of your wife wearing Niqab in today's society?
I ask this because I am a bit new to the niqab only due to the fact that my Husband didn't want me to wear it. He still hasn't explained why, so I would like to know some of your answers InshaAllah.
Shukran in advance
Masalama

Why is this?

I don't know any Muslims so I thought I'd ask this question here.

I understand the Koran claims that Jews are really dogs and monkeys...? Is this true?

I also understand that Christians are constantly being attacked, and opressed in very ugly ways in Islamic countries. Why...?

In a Muslim school, every day the pupils pray Zuhur. Before Salaat the Adhan is heard all around the school. However some of the non Muslim teachers there have been complaining about it and now the volume has been reduced so much that you can barely hear it. Bearing in mind this is a MUSLIM school, do you think this was a fair thing to do? Personally I think not. It is a Muslim school designed for Muslim pupils to receive an education and worship at the same time. If the non Muslims don't like hearing the Adhan it makes me wonder why they are even working there - they should leave and go elsewhere.

So I understand it is the man's job to provide and Insha'Allah they will be rewarded for their efforts. However having a conversation with someone they informed me that even though the woman helps to provide and does it for thesake of Allah (swt), i.e. helping parnets, they would not get rewarded as much as it is the man's job....

Im very confused as when I relate it to my situation I do my upmost best to help my parnets, as it is a commandment from Allah (wt) to keep them happy and to obey them.

My question is, is there any evidnce for what this person has said to me???

I'm 20 years old, I have my own income. My parents are Muslim, although their religion is not perfect, alhamdulillah they pray. But they are very traditional people and they like to interfere in my life, and try to decide everything for me. I know as a Muslim I should listen to them unless they command me something that is against Islam, but what if they command me something that is not directly against Islam but will effect my feelings, and maybe my religion? Do I always need to listen to them?

If it happens that I'm not directly disobedient, but I try to persuade them that my way is right, am I sinful? Let's say if they forbid me something just like that, without knowing anything about it?

ok so im pakistani so we practice marraige between cousins. my brother was engaged to be married to my cousin, my dads brothers daughter, whom i love very much. but she died 2 years ago when she was 18. =[

so my brother, a year ago, said he wanted to be married to my other cousin, my dads sisters daughter. both my parents agreed because shes a great girl and we all love her.

so my mom called their house and asked her mom for her hand in marraige and they said yes, after asking her. my parents did this w/o asking my dads brother.

when my dads brother and his sons and daughters (they r all over 20) found out, they werent even happy b/c they were kinda jealous cause their daughter was supposed to get married to my brother.

so from tht day to now, they keep telling my dad false information abt my dads sister and her children. their objective is to get my dad to break the engagement. but i dont want tht to happen. wat can i do? can i even do anything?

How does one make up their missed Salaah, i.e. when they were ignorant before and never prayed, however Alhamdulillah they got guided and wish to make up for the past.

How does one go about calculating it? Aslo do you just pray the Fardh? Or all?
