Average time French people spend eating a day: 150 min (2.5 hours)
In America: 75 min
% who eat with other people in France: 80%
In America: 40%

Eating is a social activity! Our Islamic heritage and Arabic traditions have insisted on eating in groups, talking while eating, and sharing plates.

When will America grow up and give up its muscle cars?

The sound of Chargers, Mustangs, etc. is an added noise pollution to our world. 

Also, who needs 500 horse power to drive in the city. Car companies should be liable to deaths caused by such machines rigged for catastrophe. 

The best thing about automated driving coming up is that it will eliminate aggressive driving and unarm teenagers by taking away their choice of driving.

And if you are not a construction worker moving rubble or a farmer moving tomatoes, why would you have a Ford F-150 ?!

The only condition for marriage that there is a consensus on by all Muslim scholars is Consent.

Everything else is just a symbol of consent that emphasizes it (like dowry and seegha and announcement), and seen by many scholars as unnecessary.

And the religion of the spouse is irrelevant if there will be no effect on the Muslim spouse’s faith.

With that, Islam might have presented the easiest way in the history of the world for marriage …. basically a consent in the heart. ā¤ļø

All the complications are cultural and legal.

There is a new fashion style called modesty.

I guess when a Hijab wearing girl is featured in Playboy, that says that there is nothing that you can do to make an attractive or “sexy” woman less attractive or “sexy” to men (or to women to be politically correct in 2016), no matter how much modesty you try to wrap her with. It is just natural. Biology happens. It is part of the essence of the woman to appear attractive and beautiful. You can never stop a flower from being a flower. It is her essence.

In a civilized society, men and women will treat each other based on respect rather than on attraction. It is just a silent agreement. Clothes don’t change anything. At the end, we see with our brains and not eyes.

Hijab fashion, hijab cat walks, style of hijabs, the exuberant colors, styles of Hijabi face make up, etc… are a testimony that women will always override, consciously or unconsciously, superstition and tradition when they contradict their biology and essence.

Biology wins!
