The Hills Are Alive.....

I felt like captioning this one finally; CAIR's Parvez Ahmed, Omar Ahmad and Dougie "Ibrahim" Hooper in stunning new roles. OK, the pic is old, but I used one of my only Photoshop talents today and added some type to it, and it was about time.

The Acceptable (to Muslims) Miss Indonesia Pageant

Hat-Tip: TROP

akarta, 20 Nov. (AKI) - Miss Muslim Indonesia, a contest set up as an alternative to the Miss Indonesia beauty pageant which has drawn criticism from some Islamic groups, has won the support of a top religious organisation. "Criticising pornography does not resolve the problem [posed by the Miss Indonesia contest]," the Muhammadiyah organisation's president, Din Syamsuddin, told Adnkronos International (AKI). "That's why we have decided to support the first Miss Muslim Indonesia competition," he added.

Besides traditional attributes such as physical beauty, poise and intelligence, contestants in the Miss Muslimah - the pageant's name - will also have to show they have good moral and spiritual qualities, according to Syamsuddin.

"It's important that our Miss possesses healthy values, excellent habits and a strong faith," he said.

Syamsuddin however denied reports that contestants would also be judged on their knowledge of Islam's holy book, the Koran.

"This is not necessary, what counts is a strong faith," explained Syamsuddin, who is also the deputy president of the Indonesian Ulema Council, the country's top Islamic body.

In July, the radical Front Pembela (Defenders of) Islam pressed charges against the reigning Miss Indonesia, Nadine Chandrawinata (pictured), after she wore a bikini at the Miss Universe pageant.

The charges were based upon an article in the penal code which can be interpreted as prohibiting women in Indonesia, the world's most populous Muslim nation, from competing in beauty conttests.

While the case made newspaper headlines, prosecutors did not ask for Chandrawinata's indictment and it went no further judicially

Miss Muslimah organisers say their pageant will be held in February 2007 to coincide with the staging of the next edition of Miss Indonesia.

Islamic Ringtones! Good? Bad? Just Ugly?

‘Quranic ringtones un-Islamic’

LUCKNOW: Muslim clerics at a leading seminary in India have asked people not to use verses from the holy Quran as ringtones for their mobile phones, saying the practice was un-Islamic. Clerics at the Darul Uloom seminary in the northern Indian town of Deoband issued an edict banning the use of holy Quran verses or Muslim call to prayers as ringtones, saying doing so violates Islamic law. Holy Quran verses “are not meant for entertainment,” seminary official Asumin Qazmi said on Saturday. “Anyone who persists in using these should be ostracised from society,” he said by telephone from Saharanpur. Mufti Badrul-Hasan, a leading cleric in Lucknow, said he supported a ban on such ringtones. “One should hear the complete verse of the holy Quran with a pious mind and in silence. If it is used as a ringtone, a person is bound to switch on the mobile, thus truncating the verse halfway,” he said. “This is an un-Islamic act.” AP

These ringtones were a big hit it seemed, but as with all things Islamic, someone has found and insult and we have hit a snag.

Wait, I can't just leave this unlinked and unshared....this is just too mash'allah!! Check out all of these ringtones!! And don't forget the animated horse pictures. A must for anyone.

We will not hurt the feelings of the Islamists

BTW the word "motherfucker" from now on must be changed to just "therfucker"

The UN announces this as there is concern that the original now forbidden term could be confused with "Mo the fucker" and we do not want to offend the feelings of 300 billion or so Islamists.

Personally I can see no confusion.

And why hide the etymology? Linguistic science is clear on this point.
