Habib Ali al-Jifri on Christmas

Islamic stance on Christmas I remind my brothers from among the students of sacred knowledge that the scholars who forbid congratulating non-Muslims on their religious celebrations tied their judgement to the assumption that congratulating affirms certain tenets of belief (held by non-Muslims) that are diametrically opposed to Islam. They anchored their judgement on a widespread understanding and custom particular to their time that congratulating others … Continue reading Habib Ali al-Jifri on Christmas

The Perfect Soft-Boiled Egg

Eggs, eggs, eggs! You can have them scrambled, fried or even raw. I think the way you like them says something about you! Scrambled?

Common Mistakes in Ramadan

Common Mistakes in Ramadan

For many of us Ramadan has lost its spirituality and has become more of a robotic exercise than a form of Ibaadah (worship); we fast from morning to night like zombies because everyone around us is fasting. We forget that its a time to purify our hearts and our souls from all evil and sin. We forget to make Dua, forget to beseech Allah to forgive us and ask Him to save us from the Fire. Sure we stay away from food and drink but that’s about all we manage to do. Lets have a look at some of the most common mistakes in Ramadan.

Too much stress on food and drink

For some people, the entire month of Continue reading “Common Mistakes in Ramadan”

Islamic Haircuts

Political Parties

British Politics

Political parties in the UK are more level-headed than ever and with the rise of the UKIP party, the two-party system is ceasing to exist. I’ve decided to explore the parties using this quirky method. Enjoy!

Firstly it’s important to understand that there is a common goal amongst parties, they all want:

  • Economy boost and
  • Social Development i.e crime reduction, increased employment, etc.

But like teenagers, they don’t focus Continue reading “Political Parties”
