::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: She asked him, "How much are you selling the eggs for?"
The old seller replied to her, "#40 for one egg, Madam."
She said to him, "I will take 6 eggs for #200 or I will leave."
The old seller replied, "Come take them at the price you want. May God bless us, and maybe this is a good beginning because I have not been able sell to anyone today."
She took it and walked away with a feeling that she has won. She got into her fancy car and went to pick her friend, and invited her to a posh restaurant.
She and her friend sat down and ordered what they liked. They ate a little and left a lot of what they ordered.
Then she went to pay the bill. The bill was #1,400 She gave him #1,500 and said to the owner of the restaurant: "Keep the change."
This incident may seem quite normal to the owner of the restaurant. But it is very painful for the poor egg seller.
The bottom line is:
Why do we always show that we have the power when we buy from the needy and the poor? And why are we generous with those who do not need our generosity ?
Every time a poor child comes to me to sell something simple, I remember a tweet from the son of a rich man who said, "After every prayer my father used to buy simple goods from poor people at expensive prices, even though he did not need them. Sometimes he used to pay more for them. I used to get concerned by this act and I asked him about it. Then my father told me: 'It is a charity wrapped with dignity, my son.'"
**I believe many of us are guilty of both situations. Charity wrapped in Dignit✋y! Good Morning .
WHO IS A "SLAY QUEEN".

here is a write up of my thinking for leaving Islam
My Father is Muslim and my Mother is Christian. Many atimes my father has beaten my mother and when we complain or my uncles on my mothers side complain my father replies
"You know I am a muslim man and follow the Quo'ran to the letter. In Islam we are told to beat our wives if she mispleases us"
So I asked my father to explain what he said and he showed me the quo'ran that say's clearly you can beat your wife.
Qur'an (38:44) - "And take in your hand a green branch AND BEAT HER WITH IT,"
Qur'an (4:34) - " Men are the maintainers of women because Allah has made some of them to ....... BEAT THEM;
So I tried to comfort my mum, when she said "She will not encourage her daughters to marry a Muslim" And I asked her why not and she said in her Christianity men are commanded to LOVE THEIR WIVES NOT BEAT
Again I asked for proof and she showed me these in the bible which I checked.
Ephesians 5:25 (KJV) Husbands, LOVE YOUR WIVES, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
Colossians 3:19 Husbands, LOVE YOUR WIVES, and BE NOT BITTER AGAINST THEM.
These verses in the bible shocked me.
So brothers please tell me how come our quoran encourages beating our women while the Christians God & Bible says not to beat our wives,
I have even sought teachings on this and all the Imams teach you to beat your wife.
This is worrying to me, as I wont want my sisters to be beaten by her husband. So am I agreeing that my sisters should marry a Christian and not a muslim.?
Also why does your bible command you not to beat your wife, while our quoran commands us to beat our wives?
After doing my research I left Islam.
And can say one striking difference apart from loving your wife, is that Christians have a promise of salvation which muslims do not have.
John 3 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18 HE THAT BELIEVETH ON HIM IS NOT CONDEMNED: BUT HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT IS CONDEMNED ALREADY, BECAUSE HE HATH NOT BELIEVED IN THE NAME OF THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD.
Even Mohammed is not promised salvation
Sura 46:9 "I am not something original among the messengers, NOR DO I KNOW WHAT WILL BE DONE WITH ME OR WITH YOU(MUSLIMS)."
Lukgaf: So u are among them. but can you kindly ponder over all what I wrote rather than just criticing with flimsy excuses. Bring your evidences from Quran and Hadith with the notable scholars of Sunnah that have said the same with you.
pls let's be sincere and refrain from attitude we can not defend in Qiyama
AgentOfAllah: So the most precious thing a woman possesses is not her brain, not her compassion, not her humanness, not her humanity, no, it's her virginity!
I guess that makes sense to Shiekh AbdurRazaq since his most precious possession must be his phallus!
I doubt if their is anything left on your reasoning faculty other than women private part.
From all those awesome points, you can only point out verginity. You need a brain formal
yeyerolling: hohohohoho for every christain that converts there are 10000 muslims doing the opposite. islam did not create a machinery for winning souls like the xtains. na only thru jihad and conquest which can't work in modern times
Mr man you can lie pass devil
By your statistics
82 Christians converted to Islam in Osun This means 82000 Muslims must have converted to Christian in Osun
In fact you must be awarded GCFR of Liars by Government
seguntijan: Western ideology says drink responsibly, Islam says abstain totally from intoxicants. Western ideology says use condoms & contraceptives, Islam says abstain from premarital sex and adultery. Western ideology says gender equality, Islam says gender right. Western ideology says what a man can do a woman can do better, Islam says that women were not created to do what men can do. Western ideology says 'viewers discretion, 18+ only', Islam says no to pornographic materials. Western ideology says showing your body makes you look attractive & desirable, Islam says covering your body makes you look respectable and adorable. Western ideology says you can't marry more than one wife bor u can have a string of extramarital affairs, Islam says it's forbidden for you to have extramarital affairs but if u're capable financially, physically and emotionally and can be just among them, you can marry more than one wife up to a maximum of four. Western ideology says you may give to the poor and needy out of your wealth if you so wish, Islam says you MUST give to the poor and needy a stipulated fraction out of your wealth. Western ideology says you accumulating lot of wealth and property is a sign that God loves you, Islam says that you amassing lot of wealth and properties is a sign of God testing you and how kind you are to the poor and needy through the wealth is a test by your creator. Western ideology says this world is meant to be enjoyed, Islam says this world is a test for all believers. Western world says that death is a punishment and bad omen from the devil, Islam says death is from God and simply the medium of returning the creature back to its creator for accountability. Western ideology says challenge your husband for equality in leadership and supremacy of the home, Islam says respect & be humble to your husband as the leader of the home. Western ideology says that civilization means adopting the ways of Western culture so as to be exposed, Islam says that civilization simply means doing things in better ways along with decency & modesty. Western ideology says respecting your husband means being enslaved by your husband, Islam says respecting your husband means honoring him and making yourself adorable to him. Western ideology says that you can touch, kiss, hug, peck an opposite sex you're not related to by blood or marriage, Islam says that you're forbidden from having any form of physical contacts with an opposite sex you're not related to by marriage or blood so as to prevent lustful acts and adultery. Western ideology says that you can visually appreciate a gal by stirring at her beauty but don't lust after her, Islam says lower your gaze from a woman/lady that u're not related to by blood or marriage and not feasting on her beauty with your eyes so as not to stimulate lustful desires in you. Western ideology says that being disciplined in line with the creator's principles is an act of terrorism, extremism, fanatism & fundamentalism while Islam says that abiding by the principles of almighty Allah (SWT) according to the teachings of prophet Muhammad (SAW) is an act of obedience and love for the creator. Think its up to you to judge for yourself what life should be all about...

This can never be the best place to get one But my advice is that any Muslim that approach you, just do your istikhara.
Don't ever say yes to a non Muslim
How did non Muslim even approach you in the first place?
Start using an appropriate hijab (not skimpy hijab)it will assist you
Attend Islamic gatherings that are in line with dictates of Allah and his messenger
true2god: Can you please explain this hadith to me: sahih bukhari 4:52:196 and 220)?
Explaining anything to you is like pouring water in to a basket. Water is beneficial but basket will always waste water. The above is a simple description of who you are
