To hide the hideousness of your nails as they grow while the henna stain is still there.

Of course you could probably put more stain on there but then would you want the same color on there constantly? And what if your nails appear two toned when you put more stain on it? Honestly, I wouldn't do it.

I didn't think it smelled that bad. Why do you need to wear gloves if your nails are colored?

Ok, so I ordered the nailstain. I got it in 3 days. I put the stain on and you have to have a steady hand in order to get it on without getting on the cuticals of you r toe nails. (ha I don't). But it looks better after i took a bath and it was on for a while. I don't smell any odor to it, if any at all it is very

little. I like the color i chose which is kind of a red wine color, and i'm sure with more practice it will look better (for me). If i were to rate it I would give it a 7. And would recommand it to people. I am not quite sure how long it will stay on but I will let you know.

I'm just doin it for my toes. I don't want to do it for my nails on my hands! Tina i will let you know!

I'm with you Terrie. I don't do my fingernails anyway. But the toes, yes! Thanks for keeping me in the loop!

Assalamu Alaikum,

Something that might be exciting/helpful for the converts here:

Asalamu alaykum,

Converting is no easy issue. After the takibirs, hugs, gifts and love, one still has to go home to a large non-Muslim family base. 100 lb. dogs, homies smoking blunts, holidays, clubs, x lovers, old friends, expectations of other Muslims, marriage, financial issues and a host of issues tower over the new convert.

My idea is simple, wont take much of your time and, inshallah, if we’re sincere, can help serve our communities. What I need is your questions. My plan is to collect your questions, sit with 3-4, still unknown convert scholars fresh form overseas, research, answer and write a book providing answers that, inshallah, will support, build and encourage the new convert.

Answers will be cross checked by other towering scholars in the Muslim world, published and, inshallah, serve you. This is the first in a series of books which we plan to write that will offer functionality to our communities.

Future titles include: single parent mothers/fathers, sexuality, mothers, fathers, family,teens, high school, college, young professionals, retires [baby boomer Muslims], the arts, drugs and civic duty. Imagine a collection of fatwa written by local qualified muftis covering these topics!

Now the dice are in your hand. So start asking!

If one feels his/her questions are too personal, or too long to post on line, please email me here suhaibdwebb@gmail.com. All names will be changed for publication in order to insure privacy.

Jen, that is so cool to do that. When I became a Catholic, we had a whole series following our RCIA class that was about Catholicism in practical everyday life. It is nice to have some guidance about how these situations fit into your Muslim life.

I wish we had something like RCIA classes available across the board. Some masjids have new muslim classes, but it's really hit or miss. And, if you live in an area without a lot of muslims, you're usually up a creek without a paddle.

If this project actually comes to fruition, it will be great. Packaged with Submission, Faith & Beauty, a Muhammad Asad translation of the Qur'an and a good biography of the Prophet (saws), it would be the perfect newbie muslim gift.

I think RCIA is so important...so many people want to convert and do it instantly, I think it is excellent when people study, study, study - discern, discern, discern. My sis is in RCIA right now and will convert at Easter - she's on fire with everything, which is what I believe should happen. But it is so crucial to have structured learning especially in a religion like Islam that is so structured - know what I mean?
