Ya’aburnee
Arabic – Both morbid and beautiful at once, this incantatory word means “You bury me,” a declaration of one’s hope that they’ll die before another person because of how difficult it would be to live without them.

Back in the day, the Ku Klux Klan used to train dogs to attack African Americans. Now, in 21st-century America, some Tea Party members are planning to use the same intimidation tactic against Muslims.

The Beauty of Islam: Religion and culture. →
mendmyheart:
It’s really depressing to see how much we as Muslims these days have mixed religion and culture in together to form this whole other way of life. It’s misleading for many but mostly for the younger generation. Last night one of my brother’s friends was over and we were just…

Does anyone else see the two problems with this article? for one, the comment “their goal is one of peace, not hate” which I saw as implying muslim women are supposed to be spreading hate. The other, the woman who said “it says we’re this much closer to peace-making” as if like theres some delcared war between muslims and non-muslims. i dont think there were any bad...

It is in the Qur’an that we are supposed to stand out from nonbelievers… And they are not allowing her to do that. She is unable to fulfill her religious beliefs just because “it won’t look right”. Really?

The wrong way:
offensive person: im unconfortable to fly with muslims…you never know what they may do….

Debunking the “Islam is Not a Race!” Argument -... →
almaswithinalmas:
Islamophobes think they have it all figured out. After they read the works of anti-Muslim pseudo-intellectuals and propagandists, they become self-proclaimed “experts” on Islam.

Furthermore, every single Muslim on the planet...
The Stoning of Soraya M.
A friend of mine insisted I see this movie, so I decided to watch it tonight. It seemed like it would be a sad movie from the title, but oh my god, nothing would have prepared me for this movie. I ended up, no exaggeration; sobbing towards the end. This is hands down one of the best movies I have ever seen, and the saddest (yes, even more sad than My Name is Khan!). This is one of those...
