DEFF LAST POST

Posted by: asifmerchant on: May 4, 2012

Thanks, Professor Mozoffar. You know you’re an amazing professor, but it’s not every day you hear it. I came into this class with so many impressions of you and you exceeded every one of them. You’re the first professor that would take us out for dinner and call us in the middle of the night [...]

Last post?

Posted by: asifmerchant on: May 4, 2012

According to my count, I should have 14 posts. I will respond to my own post. My first post talked about how I was a Shia Ismaili Muslim. To an extent, I was confused. I thought that I was lost and that this class was the only way for myself to open my eyes. I [...]

Blog #4

Posted by: asifmerchant on: May 4, 2012

I’m really tired and am desperate to finish these blogs by 2:00AM CST, so I’m going to talk about whatever’s on my mind, it may or may not be related to Islam.  1) I have a lot of family in Pakistan that had to move because of fear of being killed by the same “terrorists” [...]

Blog #3

I’m going to respond to Mozoffar again. In his blog post “Spare me the Sermon on Muslim Women” he links an article about Muslim women having flexibility with the quality and color of their Hijabs, even stating that they can never win against their muslim-women haters. It’s a pretty interesting point. I never gave hijabis [...]

TSA – Toilet Safety Administration?

Posted by: asifmerchant on: May 1, 2012

http://www.cnn.com/2012/05/01/us/bin-laden-anniversary-threats/index.html?hpt=hp_t2   This article talks about Al qaeda and how they put explosive powder in their bombers rectums to try to get past safety. Although it hasn’t worked in the USA, they almost killed a Saudi Arabia member of royalty.   In response to thethingstheycarried728, I’m fairly surprised too that there was an anti-Islam rally. [...]

What’s gooooood

Posted by: asifmerchant on: May 1, 2012

Breaking news: President Barack Obama had made a surprise visit to Afghanistan to speak on the one year anniversary of the raid and killing of Osama Bin Laden. I hope somebody watches it and gives their reaction to it. As much I agree with nationalism and feeling good about yourselves, I question if it’s necessary [...]

Blog #….ummmm

Posted by: asifmerchant on: May 1, 2012

I think this is the first time I’m responding to a professor. I’d like to respond to Mozaffar’s “Is this offensive” post, linking to a Jeff Dunham and his blunt Achmed the terrorist bit. I know a lot of people that would be offended by this bit. I mean let’s be honest, there are extremely [...]

Just another blog post :)

Posted by: asifmerchant on: April 26, 2012

During the last Islam class, the topic of Jinns came up. People gave their personal stories about Jinns. For example, one student spoke about how she was in a drug induced coma and when she woke up, she remembered certain details about her family that she couldn’t have known unless she was awake and witnessing it.
