! Fake Muslim Sites Beware ! COULD YOU FORWARD AN EMAIL TO SAVE YOUR RELIGION?



As salam alekum wa ruhmutAllahi wa barakatu brothers and sisters,
LifeAsAMuslimah was a darling to put together these sites so they can be emailed and islamic hater sites could be identified. JazakaAllah khair sister and inshaAllah now these attempts will be thwarted. Her post reads:



COULD YOU FORWARD AN EMAIL TO SAVE YOUR RELIGION?

Please send this message to every Muslim you know...

ASAP!

If you don't...

A Muslim somewhere in the world could be receiving false information about Islam. So prevent that from happening.

!PLEASE!

Beware of the following websites:
www.answering-islam.org
www.aboutislam.com
www.thequran.com
www.allahassurance.com

These sites have been developed by Islamaphobes!

Who Intentionally are spreading
wrong information about the QURAN , the HADITH and ISLAM itself.

Please spread this information
To all the Muslim brothers and sisters around the world. The list of traced

anti- Islamic websites, about Islam are:
1. http://www.islamreview.com/
This site has posted fake stories of how Muslims converted to Christianity. How do I know? Read the following excerpt from one of the stories:
First the 'convert' says: (emphasis added)
In the end, I managed to convince my mother, as it was for Allah and I joined the Islamic College. Having graduated as an ustaz, I was soon posted to my neighbourhood
And then:
My trip to Mecca for the Haj (pilgrimage) was tiring but eventful. I did not have the rare opportunity to see inside the holy Kabah and the holy idols inside, which Prophet Muhammud had helped to place, as explained in Bukhari's Hadith
An Ustaz (scholar) in Islaamic Studies is saying that there are idols inside the Kabah and that too placed by Muhammad (saw) himself!?!?!

This clearly shows that the author is deliberately trying to spread misinformation about Islaam and wants to convey to possible reverts to Islaam that it is religion of idol worship.
In fact most of the Christian sites use this tactic of false convert stories but it's not always possible to prove it


2.
http://www.faithfreedom.org/

AlhamduliLlaah I was able to catch another site posting fake stories of Muslims leaving Islaam. See the false information imparted here. That the attempt is deliberate is known through the claim that the 'convert' has done detailed study about the topic.

For Islamic Education, I had to study about marriage in detail to do well. So, I learnt all the stuff and got the highest grade anyone can get for Islamic Education. And guess what? Because I know it so well, I know that there is a lot of discrimination against women in Islam. Things like a father and grandfather can marry a girl/woman to whomever they want even if the girl/woman doesn't want to marry that person In addition, I learned things like women couldn't be witnesses in Syariah Courts and things like that


. The first point here is a total lie whereas the second is a distorted version of the truth.........
3.
http://www.answering-islam.org/Testimonies/younathan..html

Here's yet another extract from a false convert story aimed at spreading misinformation about Islaam.

As I started thinking about my life and the Quran, I realized all Muslims, even the prophet Muhammad, would go to Hell for certain sins they committed in their lifetime.

This is a common ploy of the Christian Missionaries. They first inform gullible victims that Jesus (God) is Love and just by believing in the Crucifixion, you will be assured of Paradise . Whereas the concept of God in Islaam is so harsh that no one will be spared from Hell and that even Prophet Muhammad (saw) was not sure of where he would end up.. For this purpose they quote an ayat of the Qur'aan out of context. Here there have gone a step further by saying that even our beloved Prophet (saw) would have to go through hell. Nothing could be further from the truth.

A
FAKE AMERICAN QUR'AN

(The FURQAN QUR'AN)
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1579211755/qid%3D1096805827/102-4933271-2395342

PLEASE DO NOT ignore this.

FORWARD this to as many Muslims as you can.

The new AMERICAN Qur'an:

a dangerous trick.

A new Quran

is being distributed in Kuwait , titled 'The True

Furqan'. It is being described as the verses of the

Shaytan and
Al-Furqan weekly magazine has found out

that the two American printing companies;

'Omega 2001'

and
'Wine Press' are involved in the publishing of

'
The True Furqan ', a book which has also been titled

'
The 21st Century Qur'an '!

It is over 366 pages and is

in both the Arabic and English languages...it is being

distributed to our children in Kuwait in the private

English schools!

The book contains 77 Surats, which include Al-Fatiha, Al-Jana and Al-Injil. Instead of

Bismillah, each Surat begins with a longer version of

this incorporating the Christian belief of the three

spirits.

And this so called Qur'an opposes many Islamic

beliefs. In one of its verses it describes having more

than one wife as fornication, divorce being

non-permissible and it uses a new system for the

sharing out of the will, opposing the current one. It

states that Jihad is HARAM.

This book even goes as far as attacking God Almighty Allah!

All this is poisoning our children at approx. $3.

Brothers and Sisters please make sure you forward this

email to as many people as possible so that we can

stop this dangerous trick..

May Allah reward you. Ameen

Answering Islam, A Christian-Muslim Dialog and Apologetic
www.answering-islam.org
Christians and Muslims have many things in common. They believe in one God, worship in holy sanctuaries, have similar annual religious calendars, and set aside one day a week for a major community worship service. Outwardly both religions can look very similar. ... Formal monotheism – Is this really..

Who Really Loves You?


As salam alekum wa ruhmutAllahi wa barakatu


“Yilly be7abak babkeek, willy beda7kuk, bedu7hik 3lake.”


My mom said this phrase to me today, and it just clicked in my head so profoundly. Granted it sounds better in Arabic, but I think we can all appreciate the translation. “The one who loves you makes you cry, and the one who laughs with you laughs at you (or at your expense)". Now ain't that the truth.

What use is the person who makes you laugh all the time and in turn really only ends up feeding your nafs (center of desires). That is not where true love lies. Those who love you will push the truth into your face whether you like it or not, because its important, and that's the only thing that will benefit you in the end. A true friend doesn't just make you feel good about your situation, a true friend calls you a lazy whiner, if that's what you are. "It is not my job to make you feel good, its my job to make you live up to your potential", said my brother.

Granted friends shouldn't put you down either, or make accusations and assumptions. They should comfort you and make you feel good about yourself when you are down, give you a few inspiring talks. That being said, when this fails, its time to bust out reality.

And there are some people on this planet that I just cannot stand! They make me so angry sometimes that I can't even form sentences. But deep down I love them, because they mean well, and because they want to see me be better, think better, aspire to be better. I can appreciate that sometimes they aren't the most articulate people, and can often be rude or short tempered; I can be a frustrating person. But I know that they mean well, and once I have calmed down I can collect my thoughts and try to sort out what I need to do.

The one thing about advice that we don't like is that sometimes it just doesn't click. I've been faced with that a lot lately. I have been given so much “advice” lately that I thought my head was going to implode. With so many people telling me about what is wrong with me, you can imagine I was pissed right off for weeks. But lately I've come to the realization that I really do need to get things together, and that these problems do exist. I can be lazy, I'm stubborn as a camel, hot tempered once you get me going, and sometimes inappropriately harsh.

That is something I can appreciate. Despite how these messages were conveyed (trust me it wasn't sugar coated or kind at all) I learned something about myself, and now I can be a better person because of it. We all need to shove our pride deep into the ground and be a little more patient when receiving advice, because after all most people don't actually like flipping out, or hurting your feelings. Therefore, if someone cares about they will stress themselves out, and you to get the message across.


Take care everyone <3

UPDATE

As salam alekum wa ruhmutAllahi wa barkaktu

JazakAllah khair everyone for all the kind words and the support. I have missed you guys so much, but I have also had a very rewarding week.

I have Re-opened my “Noura Temp” account so that I can spy on you guys and keep in contact sometimes. Add me there if you like. I wanna thank you guys so much for understanding and leaving inspiring comments that help me feel like I can do this. And make a good life for myself.

ROUGH STUFF:



I cried ALOT since the change. It was sad.

IMPROVEMENTS:



Even though I was sad I trusted in Allah to take care of me and alhemdulilah he really did!!.


So I officially got to talking with some sisters in my community and was surprised to find some nice Muslims here :). I was so worried about not having other Muslims to support me but this looks like it might not be that bad. Hehe.
I also have been studying :O. :D. I know shocker.


 I’ve been paying more attention to my salah and reading more Quran. HEHE I'm so excited for what the future holds. I know you guys have been praying for me. JazakAllah <3.

Today I went to the Jummah that is offered in my school. And the speaker was going on about how we have an MSA in the school, but no reps and nothing going on. And he basically gave us heck for 15 minutes lol. He was like, “And now I want one male and one female to approach me after salah and give me their names.” I am officially the MSA Leader for my school now O_O! LOL. I have no idea what I'm going to do but inshaAllah Allah will help me. I was thinking of letting everyone get to know each other first with some cool activities. And then maybe start organizing fundraisers and stuff. PLEASE GIVE ME IDEAS IF YOU HAVE ANY!!!!.


I have been taking care of my momma and brotha. He just got out of the hospital and hes doing great. Thanks to those who did duah for him jazakAllah khair.


Anyways that’s what’s new with me :D thanks for listening to me ramble <3.

Love yaa...

As salam alekum wa ruhmutAllahi wa barakatu



To those who care,

I love you guys more than you could ever understand, and you have helped me through the roughest of times in my life. You are all truly amazing people.

you are the people that understand me the most. You are the people that laughed with me when Rex said “halam” instead of “haram” lol. The people that listened to my cry and helped me find Allah when I needed him. The people that stayed up into the wee hrs of the morning to laugh with me. The people that protected me, checked up on me, and loved me. The people who recited Quran with me. Broke my heart and fought with me but also supported me. More than I could have ever imagined. When IslamTalk came up and down and around and back down you were there. You were there when Aim put on the Don’t Jealous Me videos and we all laughed till our ribs were going to explode. You were there when Obama was elected. You guys know why I am afraid of people telling me their dog died. You know why I love cats. You know what I'm thinking before it’s said. You guys were there when Jon ranted on about BodyWorks. When bnn sent disgusting pics haha. When Fady put up his middle finger to demonstrate shooting a bow and arrow lool. When Iqra told everyone about Rzaa’s embarrassing moments (like when he constructed the table outside only to find out that it wouldn’t fit through the doors ahahahaha!). When Numa read off the unedited version of Alice In Wonderland. When KinKong sang on mic :S When Mirza admitted he was gay. When my darling Kayla found her love in a stingy old Bosnian :P When Dee needed help you guys gave your hard earned cash. You were there for Madina’s many flip outs :P Ozzy’s many teachings of the Bible. And chats with Yahya (man I miss him). Who remembers the pumpkin song? :P ahahahaha. Loool remember when powpow pwned Abdullah on his sock account? Hahaha good times. Lol I remember when Sassy and Amal had the Nutella challenge ahahaha. You were there when Kimmy left us. Yall were there for me and defended me when DJ was being a rats ass.You guys were always supportive and this is not something I could ever forget.

But as my mother says, this one put khubz (bread) on the table. I spend a lot of time online, when I should be studying and taking care of my family. I’ve neglected them, and my real life friends, for too long :( I have gained so much support and love and KNOWLEDGE from all of you. And I can’t thank you enough for it. But recent events have shown me really that I have much more too loose. And knowing myself, if I let myself give, I will give till I have nothing left. There’s something profoundly dangerous about this. I gave my effort to some people, and they didn't reciprocate... but it doesn’t matter anyways. I can't be up till 3am anymore, and going to school half dazed. I don't always do it. But it takes its toll. Being online takes a toll.

I am going to cut off all connections with the online world. The past two years have been amazing. But it is time to let go now. I just didn’t want you all to get offended when I block/delete you :(

I love you all. And I will pray for you guys all the time inshaAllah. Please remember me in your prayers as well, because I need it.


Don't think that I am choosing my "real" life friends over you guys. In fact, you are what was real to me. You are the ones that supported me. Wiped my tears. It has more to do with my Iman and being able to focus on Allah without thinking about whos responding to my facebook comment. No one has ever done for me what you guys have done and there will be no replacing you. <3


Allah says- For him are angels ranged before him and behind him, who guard him by

Allah's command. Lo! Allah changeth not the condition of a folk until they (first) change that which is in their hearts

; and if Allah willeth misfortune for a folk there is none that can repel it, nor have they a defender beside Him. (11) Al-Rad


It's time for a change.


Wasif you better study! Jude don't be too hard on urself. JEW BEHAVE. Jake, promise to always be as sweet as you are now, never ever ever ever change. Amy, same to you, and take care of Tim eh. Lynn & OMV, I LOVE YOU GUYS <3!


For those who care, inshaAllah i will still be blogging 


To those who conjecture 


I need to learn time management indeed, and now i need to get rid of my temptations. because they are too great. I have tried many many many many times to "break". But I just can't. And I need change NOW. This is the only option. And it's not forever inshaAllah. I love you <3>
