I always go to Thanksgiving dinners. Omg it's so much fun! All that food and family:D. But I do not go to any Christmas celebrations because Islamically I don't think that's appropriate. But just shrug off the haters, cuz trust me there are many!!:)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6324399780430287797.post-51834860214353921382008-11-11T19:17:00.000-05:002008-11-11T19:17:00.000-05:00you know your a good person wahaj. ur always my li...you know your a good person wahaj. ur always my lil sis. and im not going to let anyone ruin anything. if it were up to me and i were alone, i wouldnt do anything. but thats just it....im not alone. i have a family and i have to tend to their needs.jazainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18269951544611075131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6324399780430287797.post-64111968271789787662008-11-11T18:57:00.000-05:002008-11-11T18:57:00.000-05:00i cant stand it either. its like once certain musl...i cant stand it either. its like once certain muslims embrace salafism they just go crazy on u. enjoy with ur kids and dont ever let others ruin it for u. if they keep saying stupid crap like 'may allah guide u' then let them say it. alhamdulillah we are already guided and protected too. u know, salafis really make me depressed, and its what makes me angry all the time. but whenever i make dua, and whenever i see my duas being accepted, i just think to myself that i dont care what anyone thinks, Allah is listening to me. alhamdulillah.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6324399780430287797.post-37218951821346291222008-11-11T16:20:00.000-05:002008-11-11T16:20:00.000-05:00bobby it was awesome having a big family. but so m...bobby it was awesome having a big family. but so many of them arent around anymore and we've dwindled down to a precious few.jazainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18269951544611075131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6324399780430287797.post-90436451123079197192008-11-11T16:19:00.000-05:002008-11-11T16:19:00.000-05:00you know, i dont mind discussing things like this ...you know, i dont mind discussing things like this at all but some people are very offensive in the way they go about it...the two eids are what is important for me, but they arent important to the rest of my family..they still have what we all grew up with. i love my family. i love my mother dearly. i just couldnt see telling her that i couldnt visit with her and share the time with her because im a muslim. if only people know how to talk to others...but people have to realize too that i know whats proper and whats not, thats why i said...you dont know whats going on in a persons head or life. so its not ALWAYS necessary to start a lecture.jazainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18269951544611075131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6324399780430287797.post-91679406134505410202008-11-11T14:47:00.000-05:002008-11-11T14:47:00.000-05:00asalaam alaikum sis,I know the holidays can be suc...asalaam alaikum sis,<BR/><BR/>I know the holidays can be such a tough time. I personally got over the Christmas thing, and had a much harder time with Eid because I was the only muslim in my family. Thanksgiving we view as a family meal, because it's a convenient gathering time as nobody has to work. I personally just stay away from the religious symbolism of Christmas, though you are right, for most, it has nothing to do with the religious part anymore any way.<BR/><BR/>Don't be too harsh on those telling you to stay away from holiday celebration. Keep in mind as muslims we are supposed to remind each other which is the right way to go. Some people do this very well, others mean well but come off quite offensively. While you know your intentions towards what you are doing, just remember they have their intentions too. InshaAllah they only meant to be helpful. But in the end we will each answer to Allah for what we have done.<BR/><BR/>Take care sis, and enjoy your family time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6324399780430287797.post-84018503465651009382008-11-11T14:30:00.000-05:002008-11-11T14:30:00.000-05:00it must have been awesome to be around such big fa...it must have been awesome to be around such big family!<BR/>I ain't that fortunate coz by the time I turned 10 the family was split up with uncles and aunts far away - and getting further far day by day. <BR/>now it is just me,dad and mom!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
