(Elhamdullah) finally married to hbib

[Veiled Princess 1]

as for no one answering you, my only guess is they all might have you on ignore?

There is much knowledge in this one!!!!

[Sofiyya 1,687]

i'd not call it backbite, i'd call it "answering my dumb questions"

Your questions must be dummber than mine since no one will answer them. BTW, if Henia's marriage is valid like VP's was, it's not valid at all.

and hey, i know it's strange, but i do have some friends in mena

That's because you can't counter their version of Islam.

When you don't want to be honest, run away!

[Veiled Princess 1]

Well, since they prefer to backbite to you rather than come out and say what's up, hey have lost their assumed credibility to judge me.

Backbiting is not only done in private... it is talking about (or calling someone out) in public as well.

[Sofiyya 1,687]

Hey, Charles. Did you notice that when I asked for someone to show me where I had accused Henia of fornication, that's when the ignore went up? No can do!

Backbiting is not only done in private... it is talking about (or calling someone out) in public as well.

What a convenient misguidance. It's called BACKbiting becoz it's done behind someone's back. That's so not me, so I don't have to make up definitions to suit my issues.

when i'm unsure about facts on a subject as sentitive as this one, i pm someone that i trust to know what is going on, rather than make a huge public scene.

yes, i remember quite well the shameful fiasco that ensued from all of that

you presume i'm here to learn just so i can "counter their version of Islam."

far from the truth

or maybe they just don't feel like bickering with you?

Come on, Charles! When have you been shy or sensitive about making a scene? Plzzzzzz!

Myself, I didn't make a scene, I merely asked out loud.

I wonder who among the Muslims cares about fornication, or is it ok now to imitate the "kuffar"?

[babybunny 2]

Good Grief-I see the " resolution for a united/friendly/sisterly MENA forum" failed.

Someone can't start a thread with happy news without a wad happening!!

I am not Muslim, but I know that if I was the lady in question here, I would be highly offended. Give her ( Henia) some respect and dignity, for goodness sake! Her happy thread has been stomped on in the most undignified ( or I should say classless) way!! Just congratulate her and mind your own business on wether it was an " engagement" or "whatever" party!

sad to see it only lasted one week after the last blowout. bleh. sigh........

If either one of you were muslim (or a woman--Charles) you might understand why someone would take offense to being accused of fornicating OR seeing a friend/sister/loved one accused of such. It's something very bad to us and not something we take lightly. To a muslim woman her honor is very important and being accused of fornication tarnishes that for some of us.

ohhh yeah...

I presume no such thing. I made a statement of fact that you can't do it, not that you would.

or maybe they just don't feel like bickering with you?

Then what is your secret, Charles? They LOVE to bicker with you!

it's part of my special charm

[Sofiyya 1,687]

Well, I'm not jealous. I do prefer substance to cut and run and the cut and run crowd has cut a wide swath for me to rule!

And, yes, you can be charming!

PS - I have been to Rio many times. It is breathtaking and one of my favorite places in the world!

I do prefer substance to cut and run ...

since we're speaking of preferences ..... i prefer that you correctly quote someone with their name and time for cross reference!!!

I have no idea how to get the quote function to work well, so I usually just cut and color the quotes I use. Any assistance would be appreciated

so after your many months of VJ and your self professed intellect .... you haven't been able to figure out the 'click' function of the 'quote' & ' 'reply' buttons??? yet, oddly enough ... you've mastered bracketting the font color and /end brackets .....
