Don't get my older sister
OP - November 22, 2009, 12:02 AM

Really don't. She's going on Umrah with rents in a few months, or planning to.

Rents have done Hajj. As a family we've all done Umrah. She can't do hajj because she can't get the time off work. So she's planning this instead.

She parties, go clubbing, has playboy has her keyring, wears provocative clothing (e.g. see through shirt), listened to sexually suggestive R&B music, doesn't wear a head scarf (ever!).

Huh? I don't get it. Anyone?

John, I don't get it either and it winds me up! I was saying on this forum the other day that I wish my cousins would just admit to themselves that they don't really believe. And Islame said that they don't because they really do believe.

I just don't get how they can believe but behave in a totally haram way. But think that they are doing allright because they dont eat haram and dont drink.

lol - alright that wasn't a fair description, meant these:

So she's wear a coat inside the house to hide the shirt. Dad caught her once and told her to get changed, this was back in 6th form. She working now, mid 20s.

Another time she borrowed my camera to ebay some clothes off, many of the tops were arm/shoulder showing. I'm not against any of this - I'm just confused how she can still have faith. The power of mind hijacking I conclude.

Hey aliadiere, mate, I honestly think a tipping point is being reached. I reckon if one, just one defied the gravity of Islam publicly then the rest will sheepishly follow with more confidence. It's a matter of time until the elder generation fade away.

But my one worry is that they stay around long enough for the meme to become more attached. I have an uncle at his mid 20s used to listen to Bollywood music, watch Bollywood/Hollywood action films, the lot - and now has a foot long beard and is a very very religious chap who visits many mosques. People only get more religious with age in general.

Yeah, I know. Its just an expression, like saying "mate". I really should stop saying that, it confuses people!
