This or that

[Ibn Abul Ma'ali]

Assalamu Alaikum,

here is a classic Forum thread, called This or That :D I start with 2 options, the next person gives their preference, then gives their 2 alternate options, and so it continues!

so here we go:

Kitab Ul Assassi

or

Madinah Arabic Course

(erm, don't know if they teach the same thing, but I think they are for beginners :o )

[Abuz Zubair]

al-Kitab al-Asasi is the only book that made sense to me.

All other books were pretty much useless. Btw, Madina books have been reprinted in colour form with glossy pages - and with faces drawn and the rest of it, depicting the new Salafi era ;)

Ok, here's another one (and a difficult one for me):

The non muslim women have a ring on every finger at the moment and on one of their toes if the weather is good enough to wear open toed sandals. They also like beltcher chains which is a big linked chain around their necks and they also like 9 and 18 carat gold which is dull but suits our skin.
Sadly men also like gold , chains, rings and earings.

Hatred: the most sublime passion on this Earth,
Feel its black embrace and savour it,
Banish light and love and mirth,
And render your heart by its darkness lit;

Curse the folly of the vine,
Abhor the cadence of woman's voice
Detest the reveries of the false divine,
Ravage all and then rejoice;

'I have desecrated all;
Murdered infants young and small,
Put all to sword and all to flame,
For slaughter is not but mere game;
Praise to him who wrought all this,
God, ward off his misery with bliss'.
