The world would pretty weird if we were scholars...




This story is very much different to the tales that have been told in the past, however, due to its incredibly hilarious nature i feel as though it is my duty to share this with you all.

Picture this, Myself and Darth Sister sitting in the living room, debating the ridiculous questions that had been posted on that forum, I mentioned one question, "can you do wudhu with sparkling water?" This led to a debate of minute proportion, where by we agreed to disagree.

whilst later looking through my facebook account (Yes us story tellers are on Facebook), Darth Sister posted the following,
"Can you do wudhu with Coke? I mean...its water based"

I subsequently replied with quick wit, "But its Zionist...so HARAAM!!!"

Darth Sister then posted' "oh ok...so tropicana will be ok then"

I followed with, "I think id rather do tayamum, you get to thapaat the ground and arms wouldnt get sticky

CLASSIC: The Abominable Fool



As was evident from the news and general chatter, there was a great deal of snow that had fallen within the UK during the christmas holidays. I had just finished for the semester and was planning on heading home for a well deserved christmas break. So the plan rest and relaxation before leaving saturday night for home.

So I woke up on the fateful Saturday only to find that the WHOLE place was covered in snow. Now my immediate emotions were of anger, glee and excitement. Anger as my plans were delayed. Glee, as it was now snowy and excitement to play in the snow.

So to assess the extent of the snow I wanted to check out how bad the roads were (yes the sensible me decided that was the best thing to do first). So I the door to the balcony and stepped out. Bear in mind that i had just gotten out of bed, now Imagine the feeling of ice cold snow on your bare feet. YES!! I proceeded to shout like a Yeti and hop around trying to warm my feet up again. And to make matters worse, I forgot to check the roads

Moral of the story, ALWAYS WEAR SHOES WHEN FACED WITH SNOW

When Interest equalled Architecture



So I was feeling in a semi-religious mood, having come back from the mosque and also reading an interesting article on the BBC website regarding Gay Nikah, but that is besides the point. So i went onto this forum that i am registered to. Sometimes, i like to look at the absolute ridiculous questions people ask, an example being "Is it Haraam to Overtake cars?"

So as i was going through this i came across a question, "Is Riba Haraam?"Now I was a tad perplexed, I had no idea what "Riba" was. So as Darth Sister was here i decided to ask her. "What does Riba mean?" she paused, looked at me as though I was dunce and said "Firstly it 'Ree-baa' so before you ask anyone else get that right ok? and it stands for Royal Institute of British Architects."

I looked blankly at her and replied, "What are you talking about, how is that related to Islam?"

I laughed at her

Btw Riba is the Islamic term for Interest
