Chronicles of Arabia: Islam on Chairs

http://chroniclesofarabia.blogspot.com/2010/10/islam-on-chairs.html

Tuesday, October 19, 2010. It was sadly brought to my attention via an unfortunate blackberry message that chairs are haram. I will try very hard to describe what went through my head while reading it - because too many thoughts and emotions were created up there. Here is a summary - and yes, it is in neuro-chronological order:. You are saying that we are not to use chairs because it is in a way imitating the 'West'? Oh no you didn't. That indeed takes a lot of creativity. What would the Prophet say.

Monday, October 3, 2011. The Arab (R)evolution: What's Next? This is indeed a problematic question, because we are often very inclined to admit that there is no way for us to know what the future holds, but, at the same time, stubbornly strive to 'figure things out'. Yes, the revolutionary spring blossoms of Arabia have got us posing this question (but didn't they rise from that very question - aha. paradox! But are we up for it? We think we are/we should/hopefully we will. Wrong f* *ing answer. WE HAVE ...

الليلة الماضية. ←. صباح الأحد النسخة الأولى لصباح كل سبت , لكن صباح أحد 7 مارش كان أضحوكة في عالم إنسانة حانقة على واقعها . تن تن 7:20 صباحا … تن تن 7:40 صباحا ولاأزال اتعامل مع زر الغفوة بتبلد…. تن تن 8:10 صباحا ياإلهي! سأخد خمس دقائق أخرى . 8220;إلي عشانو بعت الحياة إلي عشانو دوبت فهواه إل…” هذه نغمة جوالي والمتصل والدي , قررت بأن لاأرد على أول خمس اتصالات , لكن اصرار والدي دفعه ليتصل على أختي وشريكتي بالغرفة لترميني بالوسادة . بل تقلبت لأعدل وضعيتي .ههههههه. أعتقد أني مصابة بداء النوم العضال .

Chronicles of Arabia: Taxi

http://chroniclesofarabia.blogspot.com/2009/06/taxi.html

And it's not that I mind standing under the wonderful Saudi June-sun, or breathe fresh, hot air - no! The driver turned and said 'Really? And put the volume up. 'Yes yes!

Chronicles of Arabia: Customer service

http://chroniclesofarabia.blogspot.com/2009/06/customer-service.html

Tuesday, June 23, 2009. We did not get anything from that shop. We did not end up buying a suit that day. A week ago, I went into a lingerie shop with my mom in that same mall.

No thanks, I just walked in, and am just looking around". He walks away, fewf. Nods and smiles politely). "This new concealer. A hypocrisy in our culture.
