    The hypocrisy of western media is unbelievable, unmatched, unfortunate, unfair, unforgivable and shameful for having double standards for Muslims and the rest of the world. Their democracy is only for select few. The pathetic public still doesn’t get it.

    This just popped up for me. Great watch. Two players I massively respect. Saints fan so no bias here.. I always remember wanting Baz at Saints, and I know most Saints fans did also. One of the toughest forwards and one of the best to watch ever. Fielden for me in that game Baz mentioned against the Tigers (wcc) he was THE best forward in the world and in that period for me the greatest ever rugby league forward. I know other players where st the top of their game for longer periods, but in my humble opinion he was the best I can remember in that period

    It breaks my heart that he said if you are not Muslim you are not really understand Rumi. All I have to say is that reading Rumi has hit me straight right in my heart many, many times I can’t read his poetry without tears coming to my eyes. It has made me understand things I didn’t even know existed, but specially it has helped me starting to see and understand God beyond something I never ever thought I had the capacity to see. Rumi’s teachings have given me so much strength and it has helped me in every aspect of my life. I was raised catholic but now just like said “my religion is love”

    What a fabulous discussion. Thank you to Adelle for coming to Charlotte's rescue. I also think she did it to protect her sisters, and definitely not to harm them, or out of jealousy as some think. The Brontes were very close-knit family, none of them were married ( apart from Charlotte in her last year of life) so they were very very close. Charlotte even forgave Branwell for all the problems they had with him, she couldn't have possibly been intentionally cruel to Anne's work. That's what I think anyway and I'm one of 5 sisters, so I know what is it like to be from a big family. Two of us are writers.

    33:36: It is not for a believing man or a believing woman, when Allāh and His Messenger have decided a matter, that they should [thereafter] have any choice about their affair. And whoever disobeys Allāh and His Messenger has certainly strayed into clear error. So for over 1400 year until the turn of this century post fall of Ottman Khilafah and seculrisation these peculiar ideas have been given platforms not convincing tbh.

    Actually Islam has progressed with the times, due to so much criticisms. But for most of all history it was a very coercive and violent religion. In the modern times, there are two major types of Islam interpretation: 1.) Modern -- more open and does not punish their believers or force their beliefs to others 2.) Archaic /Old-- punish every one who does not obey, and must force their beliefs.... "If People are good because they fear punishment and hope for reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed.” - Albert Einstein.

    I can confirm that it’s true. Hamza Yusuf has indeed been battling with a malignant form of testicular cancer for sometime and now he is receiving cancer treatment for it. Although I am not sure exactly when he may undergo his surgery, but he continues his battle with cancer. Life is short but art is long, and for some life is even shorter!

    Yes I have heard this too that Hamza Yusuf Hanson has been diagnosed with testicular cancer but what I don’t know is what stage his cancer might be at present or if he has started his chemo already. Given that he is already in him 60s, his body more likely will not receive the treatment amicably.
