Probably the part where it integrates with socialism. Taking from the rich and giving to the poor. Some other stuff too but I can't be bothered to think at the moment.

I think you are confusing Capitalism with Democracy.

Nope I'm not. Democracy is usually associated with capitalism though because most people don't like socialism.

Democracy doesn't have any economic aspects. Just political.

democracy endorses capitalism ... Islam supports some aspects of democracy but of course not all .. in fact there is a field in Fiqh that deals with economics ...

I was talking about the political side of democracy then.

The new Imam, who came from Mubarak's political party, doesn't seem any better...we'll see.

it is documented that women (especially the wives of the Prophet (saw)) wore the niqab ... even the commoner knows that so how could the shaikh of one of the most prominent universities in the world say that?

From what I have heard, it is that the wives of the Prophet PBUH wore niqab to be recognized. ie: So that the people know that these are the wives of the Prophet, and no other women wore it.

So actually, women in general are not supposed to wear it.

Of course, I am against the banning of it, everyone is free to wear what they want, but I'm just saying..

Wear did you hear that Gman?

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am SOOO annoyed/angry atm.

I got my chem quiz back today...and guess what...I lost 4 points (It's out of 20 points). You know why? Because I didn't solve part D , which I did not see at all during the Quiz. And it was sooo easy too since Part C was exactly like it (with the numbers different).

Today: I solved the chem quiz (another one), and I did it correctly and everything...when I came to Part C (the last Part) she kept on rushing us because she had to go to a meeting, this was while I was showing my work. Then she threatened to not take the quizzes from whoever doesn't submit it...so instead of finding the log of the numbers then multiplying (that's how I showed my work too!), I just multiplied everything in the calculator and gave that in.

OMG OMG!!! It boils my blood when such stupid stuff happens!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >.<

Now I need to re-take (resit) those 2 quizzes on Wednesday ...and of course they will be different questions...how pathetic.

lyke omg

Dude it's really annoying...I want it to happen to you so you could feel like how I feel >.<

u have another shot at it on wed

But I don't want to ...I like getting the quizzes from the first shot

i like getting exams right from the first shot too.. i'm still resitting
+ failing BTW

STOP saying you are failing. You are NOT failing, I AM failing! (Well it feels like I am anyways...)

wallah i feel like imma fail ALL my subjects... i'm being serious man..

But you aren't

From my mother, lol.

And yes, she used to be Christian, and converted to Islam as it made much more sense,

But when it comes to Islam, I'm sorry, but no-one can even try to compete with her mashallah, as she really knows what she says.

Ok, msA , but is there any book or source that I could increase my knowledge with?

I can ask, and like tell you tomorrow, ok? Coz she's asleep right now (it's 12:26 am, Tuesday )

Kkz, man Ill be waiting. JazakAllah.

But u want a good book about Islam in general, or something that talks (or includes) about niqab specific?

More about what you were talking about on the last page.

ok, I'll see if she has any suggestions.
