            <title>***The LYN Official Islam Thread***</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/877129</link>
            <description>Islam is a religion based on hard work and extreme dedication toward an eventual reward in heaven.  I just wanted to say that don&amp;#39;t you just LOVE LOVE LOVE Islam? My life is so complete because of my belief in Allah and this beloved religion of ours. I was thinking yesterday that how much peace is my soul at due to the teachings of our religion. I absolutely love it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A few random things I love about Islam:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) It&amp;#39;s concept, which is a reality, of the oneness of Allah. It makes such amazing sense and preserves the sanctity of God.&lt;br /&gt;2) It&amp;#39;s human moral values on subjects like forgiveness, peace, brotherhood, love and the list goes on and on&amp;#33;&amp;#33;&lt;br /&gt;3) The things it has done for women. Never has a religion so beautifully given women their rightful place. Also related is the fact that how Allah made men and women equal but bestowed upon men superior physical vigour and hence made him the head of the family. A man remains a MAN as long as he fulfills his duties as the head of the family. And yet, Allah gave women the gift of giving birth. And aint nothing more beautiful in this world than women.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style='color:green'&gt;So this thread is for whom?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Brothers and Sisters of Islam who wish to unite and discuss our Muslim lifestyle.&lt;br /&gt;-Non-Muslims who wish to get to know more about Islam and Allah&amp;#39;s teachings. So you peep are more than welcomed here  &lt;!--emo&amp;:D--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt; &lt;br /&gt;-Basically everyone LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style='color:blue'&gt;OK let me lay down the rules before any one here posts&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;1) &lt;b&gt;Do not promote &lt;/b&gt;or push religious beliefs on to others, we have Malaysians of many different faiths and we ask that all believes be respected. Using this site to preach to, convert other members or to &amp;#39;advertise&amp;#39; a belief system is disallowed. This applies to ANY religion.&lt;br /&gt;2) Do not intentionally instigate &lt;b&gt;&amp;quot;flame wars&amp;quot;&lt;/b&gt; or bait others in to making personal attacks&lt;br /&gt;3) &lt;b&gt;Refrain from replying in Malay&lt;/b&gt;. I know most Muslims here are Malays but me being a foreigner here, I don&amp;#39;t speak the Malay language. Very sorry but this is also to encourage the non-Malays here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style='color:red'&gt;&lt;b&gt;FAQ&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;What is Jihad&amp;#33;?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Calm down, first of all Jihad literally means to strive for something, i.e work hard and to your best of ability, so everything muslims do is Jihad, whether it is helping the elderly or collecting Charity, or fighting your inner temptations or defending the helpless and weak.&lt;br /&gt;Funny, how Muhammad(saw) is known as the Prophet of Mercy, when he was so kind even to his enemies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Secondly, non of the things that are going on now can in any way shape or form be associated with Islam. Extremists have always been around and will always, the Prophet(saw) himself said that these are a people with no kindness in their hearts, they thrive on wars and bloodshed, he said that the if he was with us today, he would eliminate them all. Suicide is a no go in Islam, there is only damnation after that, no go going back&amp;#33;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you&amp;#39;re going to quote verses from the Quran that imply fighting and war for a cause, I&amp;#39;m answering you right now. Jihad is by all means encouraged in Islam. But the vital difference between Jihad and terrorism is that of defense and attack. An example I earlier showcased in a thread: Christina&amp;#39;s song is FIGHTER, not ATTACKER. Islam encourages fight and defense if you are threatened. By no means Islam encourages attack unless for a valid reason such as tyrany of a people under a cruel lord. If the people want freedom from such a cruelty, Islam encourages its followers to fight for their rights&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Allah&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Allah is the standard Arabic word for &amp;quot;God&amp;quot;.While the term is best known in the West for its use by Muslims as a reference to God, it is used by Arabic-speakers of all Abrahamic faiths, including Christians and Jews in reference to &amp;quot;God&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Muhammad is the only religious figure that can be proven to have existed, as because of his writings to kings,his belongings and his grave being present to this very day.&lt;br /&gt;The name Muhammad literally means &amp;quot;Praiseworthy&amp;quot; and occurs four times in the Qur&amp;#39;an.&lt;br /&gt;One in every five persons on this earth firmly believes that the Prophet Muhammad is the last Messenger of God. He was a Muslim and there are more than 1.3 billion(recorded) such Muslims today.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He was named the number one most Influencial man by numerous non-Muslims above Isaac, newston, Einstein and even Jesus for being a:&lt;br /&gt;1) Philosopher&lt;br /&gt;2) Orator, &lt;br /&gt;3) Apostle, &lt;br /&gt;4) Legislator, &lt;br /&gt;5) Warrior, &lt;br /&gt;6) Conqueror of ideas, &lt;br /&gt;7) Restorer of rational dogmas,of a religion without images;&lt;br /&gt;8) A Father&lt;br /&gt;9) A Husband &lt;br /&gt;10) The founder of twenty terrestrial empires and of one spiritual empire, that is Muhammad. &lt;br /&gt;-- (Paris 1854, Vol. II, pp. 276- 277)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Polygamy&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Under Shari&amp;#39;a - Islamic law - a man can marry up to four wives. He can divorce his wife or wives by saying “I divorce you” three times. For a wife to obtain a divorce is usually very difficult. Muslim apologists claim that Muslim women have the right to divorce and that in Islam the mother is revered and respected. Upon divorce, fathers win custody of boys over the age of six and girls on the onset of puberty. Many women would be reluctant to divorce violent or polygynous husbands for fear of losing their children. Despite the exaltation of motherhood - Mohammed once told a follower that paradise is found at the feet of the mother - children are considered the property of the father with the mother being merely the caretaker. How is it possible for a Muslim man to respect his mother when immutable religious law proclaims women&amp;#39;s inferiority and inadequacy?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That Allah gave men the superiority of better physical strength and position of the head of family is unarguably sensible. Even in the western culture, it is men who head the family. That&amp;#39;s how it works best. See it this way. Allah created two kinds in human beings: men and women who together complete each other. He made them both equal, yet gave them differenct characteristics. We have all heard that &amp;quot;Too many cooks spoil the broth&amp;quot; and that if there was more than one god than they would all end up fighting each other. Similarly the captain of a ship or army is always one person. Instead of viewing it as a superiority, people shuld view it as an added responsibility upon that person, one which if he is unable to conduct, he loses that superiority. So God just gave one of his two kinds of human beings, the post of the head of the family. We call that kind &amp;quot;men&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Before Islam the early people were cruel and unjust to women, they treated them like objects of mere desire, and often some of them went through hidious and unjust situations. To the point that they buried their duaghters alive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Islam came to stop all of that, Allah gave the women honour once more and the rights that they so truthfully deserve. The veil is a beautiful thing, it ensures that the woman should be noticed for her personality and kindness and not for any physical traits.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;For more&lt;/b&gt; - &lt;a href='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam' target='_blank'&gt;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam&lt;/a&gt;</description>

            <title>How to sweet talk ma wife</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/843603</link>
            <description>OK guys and girls alike,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&amp;#39;m married now. And, as usual a guy will have a fling or two around even he&amp;#39;s belonged due to many reasons such as greed, lust, stress, experimental ideas or whatever&amp;#33;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OK, I&amp;#39;ll break it down really simple now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My colleague, who is quite open with stuff, you know...&amp;#39;stuff&amp;#39;. She&amp;#39;s kinda engaged too but she&amp;#39;s really open and has opened the little cat to me before. And she&amp;#39;s cute.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And as usual, I got my wife, who might not be open with &amp;#39;stuff&amp;#39; but she really loves me and I really love her.&lt;br /&gt;Me- I want to have a one-off threesome.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How to convince my wife???? Been thinking about this for the past few days&amp;#33;&amp;#33;&amp;#33;(&amp;#33;@*&amp;#33;@(&amp;#33;*@)@^#&amp;amp;#%&amp;#33;@(*@)(*)&amp;#33;&lt;br /&gt;By the way, I&amp;#39;m not in love with my colleague if that&amp;#39;s what you want to ask.

            <title>How to - Get a hot ONS&amp;#33;</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/780259</link>
            <description>OK, in my time in LYN, it&amp;#39;s like less than 5% chicks in kopitiam or cupids so forget about fishing em here. Total waste of time. Even 90% of female tags are fakes and trap of somekind. So since all of us (most ok) are dudes here, lets share and contribute the buaya method&amp;#33;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;You being selfish VS she being selfish&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OK, most of you crocs here are mostly computer nerds or dota freaks or whatever geekish dude. Nevermind. To get laid, you don&amp;#39;t have to throw all of your geeky nature just for the chicks, you just gotta hide them away from the chicks. I noticed girls aged around 18-25 hate dude who spend excessive time on something none of their interest...they are selfish but your aim to get into their pants LOL so you must be more selfish. You must pretend to be thinking of them like 90% of the time (although you won&amp;#39;t). So hide your dota-ing, computing, or whatever addiction from them. Bottomline: they know you&amp;#39;re addicted to something apart of them, they&amp;#39;ll brush you off. So pretend to be addicted to them by sending stupid smses like I miss you, what you&amp;#39;re doing now, I can&amp;#39;t stop thinking of you, when&amp;#39;s the next time I&amp;#39;m seeing you, bla bla bla. Use your own creativity. But don&amp;#39;t bug them too much, you&amp;#39;ll know when to stop.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;When animals are not pests&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adopt a pet, a cute pet. Girls dig small little animals like puppies, kittens, racoons, rodents or whatever crap even if you hate it to the max. I myself hate animals but eversince my mum had a persian cat (I think) at home, and each time I bring girls back home, they&amp;#39;ll go fasicinated with that stupid cat by pinch it&amp;#39;s chick and combing it&amp;#39;s fur, and they even start forgeting about my presence there. Crap. So what I did most of the time is I bluffed them and say that cat is mine, I take care of it, I thought her how to do this trick and stuff, and they think of me as an angel WTH. May sound weird and unbelievable to you but hell yeah, this works so well&amp;#33;&amp;#33;&amp;#33;&amp;#33; So bottomline: Forget about expensive cars and expensive clothes to upgrade yourself. consider a cheaper yet more effective alternative- pets (but they gotta look cute to the chicks. Don&amp;#39;t get snakes or gorrila or else you&amp;#39;ll start blamming the blademaster)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Risk VS Benifit&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you got a date, cool. Don&amp;#39;t have to dress up like 100%, just put in 60% and pretend you gave in 999%. When they try to change you, just let them. If the chick is really a hotty and your a loser, fine, let her change everything about you (physical appearance) she wants. You might need to sacrifice some money (sometimes a lot of money  &lt;!--emo&amp;:cry:--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/cry.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='cry.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt; ), your current hairstyle, etc. But if she&amp;#39;s just another girl next door, screw this plan, you just got to weigh your risk VS benefit ratio and think things out. From my experience, girls love to change their man and treat them like a barbie doll LOL. I normally brush them off like in a month&amp;#39;s time because I just wanna &amp;#39;get in&amp;#39; and that&amp;#39;s it. Maybe some of you out there are patient enough for this crap? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Enter the dragon&amp;#39;s lair&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you got a date, you&amp;#39;re fetching her back (by walking or driving or whatever), do this. This works even on a first date. I usually employ this on the first/second date. What I like to do is purposely leave my handphone in the handbag then fetch her back home then kiss goodbye then act like I&amp;#39;m very nervous and shy although I&amp;#39;m not. Later, after saying bye bye, I&amp;#39;ll go to the car, wait for like 10 mins or 15 mins. After that, knock  on her door, and say I left something in her bag, and use the bathroom (actually no need to use, just need to get into her house quick). After that, make up a stupid topic to chit chat then it will evolve to something bigger, hotter, wetter...ok, I&amp;#39;ll stop here. Don&amp;#39;t do this if her parents are at home and are awake. So time yourself, come return home later.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Use your surroundings&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Forget about coaxing them back to your house. Why? First, you need to clean up because you&amp;#39;re a slob. Second, they&amp;#39;ll know what&amp;#39;s your goal hehe. So stop all that. but if it&amp;#39;s their own desire to come to your house, then fine&amp;#33;&amp;#33;&amp;#33; You don&amp;#39;t have to clean up your room&amp;#33; Just use your sister&amp;#39;s room (make sure she&amp;#39;s not in or make a deal with her). Clear all your sis&amp;#39;s clothes, perfume and cosmetics and that&amp;#39;s it&amp;#33; Leave the ugly dolls, the stupid looking floor mat, the irritating pair of footwear there. Trust me, in their eyes, this is much better than your room filled with magazines, comics, toys, gundams and cars because to them, that is chicken poo, but it&amp;#39;s gold to you. Those stuff won&amp;#39;t make your room more sophisticated to them and that&amp;#39;s for freaking sure. For those of you who don&amp;#39;t have a sister, too bad. Luckily I had one and each time I use her room, I lose 10 bucks haha...reminds me of those days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok, that&amp;#39;s all for now. Will be coming back and adding more stuff if there are more contributions, I&amp;#39;ll add them here. Maybe afterall, this thread will phail  &lt;!--emo&amp;:x--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/doh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='doh.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;happy fishing&amp;#33;  &lt;!--emo&amp;;)--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt;</description>
