HILARIOUS QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS I'VE HEARD AS AN HIJABITE. 

HILARIOUS QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS I'VE HEARD AS AN HIJABITE. 

* Your dress is so nice, it's a pity you cover it up with your hijab.
(Why are you pitying me? You want to take antibiotics for someone else's infection? My dressing is incomplete without my hijab)

* Do you people wear earrings?
(Yes we do. Average of 2-3 piercings plus an optional, privileged one on the nose for those wearing niqab!)

* How will you get someone to marry you?
(Seriously?! So, men now have to see your whole body before they decide whether you're Ms. Right or not? Those wearing niqab can simply reveal their faces to interested brothers, in the presence of a third party: a male relative or another woman)

* Why do you allow a man to enslave you like this?
( Which man? Last time I checked, my dad/brother/uncle is still trying to understand why I'm wearing it. Some hijabites are not even married yet, so, don't think it's the husbands forcing them)

* You can't find a job with this kind of dressing.
( Oh! Really?! Who told you I'm looking for a modelling job?)

* OMG! Your hair is so beautiful.
( Hijab is no excuse for a broken, unkempt, lice-infested hair!!!)

* Do you feel comfortable in this hot weather?
( Yes. There's a thermostat in the brain- the hypothalamus- that helps to adapt to temperature changes. My hypothalamus has gotten "used to" me wearing the hijab when it is hot. Therefore, it has been RESET to withstand a higher temperature. So, I'm fine... Lol)

* Do you wear it indoors too?
(No. As long as a "strange" male or unreliable female is not around, I can remove my hijab and wear ANYTHING inside my father's/husband's house)

* This is just Arab culture.
( It's not. Go check the history of the Arabs. Women's nudity used to be displayed for entertainment before Islaam came. Hijab is a religious duty, not a cultural attire)

* Why do you wear this hijab sef?
( The most intelligent question of all. It is a divine injuction. It's clearly stated in the Quran and further explained by learned scholars: chapter 24 vs 30-31 and chapter 33 verse 59. We observe it to seek the pleasure of Allaah ALONE. It also helps us to stand out and be identified as muslim women and to be protected from molestation).

Any more questions???!!!

ALBAYAANEE

*Albayaanee*......✍

Assalaamu alaykum warahmotuLlah wabarakhaatuhu.

MARRIAGE OF AISHA (R.A) AT 9 YEARS OLD.
This is so STRANGE why?.
I checked one page on Facebook our brothers were
busy arguing with Christians
about the age of our Mother Aisha (R.A) and many of
us can't defend ourselves on this issue but let me
make it clear.
While the disbelievers were busy calling
HIM (Prophet PBUH) a Pedophile.
The Muslims were busy faulting Sahih
Bukhari so as to "cover-up" the issue.
The aged were like: that's extremism.
Aisha (RadiAllahu Anha) said, I was given in
marriage to the Rasuulullah (SAW) when I was 6yrs old, and he
consummated the marriage when I was 9
(Bukhari).
Rather than calling it a da'eef hadith, to please your non-Muslim friends who are insulting your
Rasoolullah (SAW), just be silent, or ask the scholars and
read more about Seerah and perhaps Allah
may grant you the Hikmah (Wisdom) behind it.
Have you ever asked yourself?
Why is it that during the days of Quraysh,
they called the Rasulullah (SAW):
Magician, madman, and the likes but NEVER
called him a Pedophile if this accusation was true?
They never raised any question about his
marriage to Aisha (R.A), why?
Because it was NORMAL at that time, girls at
that age were suitable for marriage at that
time, did you know:
-Saint Augustine (350AD) married a 10 year
old girl!
-King Richard 11 (1400AD) he married a 7yr
old girl.
-King Henry Viii (1500AD) he married a 5yrs old
girl.
Even in the BIBLE it says:
....But save for yourself every girl who has never slept
with a man (numbers 31. 17:28).
According to the catholic encyclopedia,
Mary the mother of Jesus was 12 when she married
the 99 years old Joseph.
Before 1929, church of england ministers
could marry 12yrs old girls in Britain.
.
Up till 1983, catholic canon laws permitted priests to
marry off brides at the age of 12.
In the United States, back in 1880, in the state of
Delaware, the minimum age for marriage was 7yrs
and in California it was
10.
.
So Aisha (RadiAllahu Anha) was NOT a child when she
was married!
We live in a society where good is
condemned at every slight opportunity but evil is
encouraged even when its flaws are
crystal clear.
How strange
The Nigerian constitution says:
An 18yrs old can vote
An 18yrs old can go to jail
An 18yrs old can contest for political positions
An 18yrs old can travel outside d country all alone.
.
And YET, an 18yrs old can't marry?
But our 12yrs old Girls are having boyfriends !
.
Did u know?
When Sofiyyah bint Huyay was married to the Muhammed (SAW),
she was just 17yrs old? And that
was her THIRD marriage
She was initially married to Salam ibn abi Haqiq and
later to Kinanah ibn abi Haqiq!
Imagine how old she was during her first
marriage?
Are you clarified now?
Those still doubtful, Go back to your village
and ask your grandmother how old she was when she
got married!.
*Islam is perfect while Muslims are not*
May Allah (SWT) always give us ability to overcome every challenges in this life and the hereafter. Ameeen

Relentless, they are. Advocates of legal *notions*.

Stories of the gallantly tempestuous *icons*.
Tales of great heroes; relentless *champions*.
Normative conformists; not the greedy *thieves*.
Optimistic scholars and not the illiterate *chiefs*.
The incorruptible mentors; not corrupt *criminals*.
Leagues of dogged Dons and not camarilla *cabals*.

Atmosphere switched spoof and *inspiring*.
Enraptured, I am. The spirit of *learning*.
Overwhelmed! I asked ‘them’ about *“SUCCESS”*.
THEY said; “ *FAILURE* is the mother of *success*.
Behold! This calls for adequate *understanding*.
Lo! To record success, failure is *epoch-making*.

With days, baby mammals perfect *walking*.
Infant cocks, takes weeks to perfect *crowing*.

Ironical, it sounds but not. Be *realistic*.
A pal advised me: “Be hopeful and *optimistic*”

The more, the experiences of *failures*.
The closer, the road to HOWLING *SUCCESS*.
THEY said; “ *when life knock us down*,
*we choose whether to get up or remain down*"
Choosing to stay up is *CONFIDENCE*.
LO! *“Confidence is the key to success*".

All that glitters are definitely, not *gold*.
Don't feel complacent about failures. Be *Bold!*.
Live to tell stories of your *achievements*.
Don't  rely on your parent's *accomplishments*.
They experienced life's honeycombs and bitter *leafs*
It's definitely your turn. Face it or take a *leave*.

THE MEANING -Royal Shekinat

The Meaning

To love is to share life together
to build special plans just for two
to work side by side
and then smile with pride
as one by one, dreams all come true.

To love is to help and encourage
with smiles and sincere words of praise
to take time to share
to listen and care
in tender, affectionate ways.

To love is to have someone special
one who you can always depend
to be there through the years
sharing laughter and tears
as a partner, a lover, a friend.

To love is to make special memories
of moments you love to recall
of all the good things
that sharing life brings
love is the greatest of all.

I've learned the full meaning
of sharing and caring
and having my dreams all come true;
I've learned the full meaning
of being in love
by being and loving with you.
