Muslim , I careless for what you think about me
Was windows 8 generally seen as "terrible"?
So , XP was a great hit and it actually still exists on computers in decent numbers fo something that old , Vista was a disaster in security , stability , performance , and other things , Seven came about and addressed the issues Vista had and it's still strong , then came Eight .
So , I never had a windows 8 and I only clicked around a time or two when seeing it at Libraries - commercial ones - . No one around me used it either . Was Eight really that bad that you can compare it to Vista or was it just impractical yet stable and well-performing ?
4 AnswersSoftware5 years agoRoses & Flowers , which one is a super-category to the other ?
In my language , I know the difference between each and their names . The issue is , I m not sure which one translates to "rose" and which translates to "flower" and hence the confusion .
And if someone can actually tell me the same about Japanese "Hana" and "Bara" I d be thankful .
1 AnswerWords & Wordplay6 years agoIs there such a thing as a world cup in basketball ?
Because frankly , I don t know of any . The American NBA on the other hand , you could put it on one side of a libra - is that what it s called in English ? - with the rest of the world on the other and the NBA will have more weight .
2 AnswersBasketball6 years agoIs it possible to find a wireless mouse that is as responsive and accurate as a wired one ?
This is my first time buying a wireless one . It's not bad . But I can clearly feel some lag and lack of accuracy compared to my old wired one even though it's many years older . So yeah , it's decent , the only possible problem I might possibly face is with games that require precision and fast response . Then again , I don't have a game that requires so .

11 AnswersCleaning & Laundry6 years agoWhen buying a bicycle , what should I watch out for ?
We have a saying that goes "Every bump teaches you something" . I bought one , two months later - Yes , only two months later - , the number of problems I had with it became ridiculous . Some are minor and some are major . Among them are :
1) Pieces - mostly nails or however you call them in English - getting rusty quickly . And no , I didn't wash it .
2) I'm not sure about it , but it feels like the tires lose air quickly . They don't get completely deflated but they don't feel as good as they are right after I inflate them . This happens in a week and half nearly .
3) There's this one important nail , it flied off THREE times . The first two times , I drilled it hard . The third one , I couldn't find it , so I replaced it with a rusty one from an abandoned rusty bicycle I found laying around . Guess what ? It stays there better than the other .
4) While simple and solved by a one spray , the chain didn't have much oil to begin with .
5) Other "accessory" pieces breaking and falling off at the weakest hit including the back "light ?" .
So what should I set as criteria when buying one ?
6 AnswersCycling6 years agoHow much would I need math in computer engineering ?
Because seriously , I'm spending near 8 hours a day for almost a week before tests and exams to the degree that I'm LITERALLY having dreams of Sine , cosine , tan , and all the rest of this mind torture . Seeing this in my preparatory year gives me shivers thinking about what's upcoming the next one .
2 AnswersEngineering6 years agoHow does this prove a function is one to one ?
I ve been told this time and time again that if I have a function f(x) then in order to prove it s one to one I can exchange x for a and b so that it becomes this :
f(a)=f(b) > a=b
Well no offense but , way to go captain obvious ! Let s supposed a and b both equal 2 , then of course they d give me the same result in the function . And if I use them in the function and they give me the same result then they can be - not necessarily - equal . How does that prove the function is one to one?
I still can t be sure about the many other values I could give x and if each of them is met by only one value of y .
It s really puzzling me .
1 AnswerMathematics6 years agoHow do I solve this problem with my DVD ROM on Windows 7 ?
So , sometimes , I insert a DVD , I wait for the "autorun" to work . The thing is that it doesn't . So I go to "Computer" to do it manually . However , when I try to enter the folder , the "computer" window freezes - not the whole system though - and soon after , the CD/DVD ROM disappears from the folder . I can solve that problem by shutting down the laptop and taking the battery off but it's getting ridiculous really . I suppose it's a problem with the hardware . But if I can solve it without taking the device apart or paying absurd cash for something like connecting a cable and such , I'd be happy to do it . Any thoughts ?
2 AnswersLaptops & Notebooks7 years agoHow merciless could people get ?
I once asked a question with the title of (What is the reason behind killing Muslims in Burma) and the only respond I got was "Muslims attacked first ! They diverse what they got !" so according to this , they have no problem in killing children , old people , and all the other innocent Muslims , that pig (Their president) ordered to doom 15% of the population ! and the so called "Human rights watch" seem to get blind now , they have no problem with over 15,000 who were killed so far , they have no problem in burning children , but once ONE Muslim mistakenly trips and hit someone on the road , they'll start shouting "Terrorist ! Terrorist !" with these stink holes they call mouths , just tell me people , HOW can you be so terrible and merciless ?! HOW can you agree to all these crimes under the lame excuse of "Muslims did it first !" HOW can you act like that ?! have you no shred of mercy or humanity ?! They're just CHILDREN ! BABIES ! What wrong did they do ?! HOW can you remain calm while looking at this ?!

Have humanity been lost ?
3 AnswersReligion & Spirituality9 years agoWhat is the reason behind this silence about Burma ?
We always hear on the bias media the same repeated sentence ( Islam promotes hatred and violence ! ) And they always bring some tiny crimes done by a tiny group of criminals who went against Islam teachings to pin this poisoned lie in people's minds , but amazingly , the fiendish media seems to get a temporary blindness and deaf whenever Muslims are mass murdered like what happens in Iraq and Afghanistan and Palestine and the war of Bosnia , and once a Muslim calls a Christian or a Jewish or a Hindu ... etc an (Idiot) they are cured of their illness and start the usual campaign calling to hate Islam . So where's the honesty now ? Why don't they say a word about a criminal who calls to murder 8 million Muslims there ? They give us a headache with 9\11 as if the leaders of the Islamic nations supported it , but now when that pig says it CLEARLY "Kill every Muslim you find , a child or a woman or an old man" they seem to become blind again ? And what makes it worse is when some fools go around and say "Hey , they deserve it , they killed 3000 in 9\11" and nobody calls them haters or anything except few people who didn't let hatred go deep in their hearts . So tell me , where is the humanity and human rights you're talking about , UNICEF ?!
2 AnswersCurrent Events9 years agoAtheists , doesn't your faith say that everything is ok ?
When we go in arguments with some Atheists , they object on the marriage of Muhammad peace be upon him to lady Aisha because they see she was too young , and away from explaining why this objection is false , I want to ask : You see that Incest is ok , and sex with animals as well , and homosexuality too , so why do you object about the normal sex with a full woman that is nothing less than the others ( Put in account that even his enemies didn't object because it's ok ) ?
Secondly , you give us headache with the usual claim that you use as a daily pray ( Islam spread by sword ! Islam spread by sword ! ) While your faith says that murder is ok as long as it's for your own desire and benefit , which is the reason why the likes of Stalin and Hitler and Mao murdered millions of Muslims in Russia and China and other places , so why the double standards ?
I know the incoming answer from 80% of the ones reading this and it would surely be full of the vulgar words , but if I was lucky enough , I would find someone who actually wants to have a real conversation
Peace to who wants peace , and no peace to who insults the religion
17 AnswersReligion & Spirituality9 years agoCan somebody tell me what are the so called "109 Violent verses in Quran" ?
No matter how much I read the verses , I just can't find a violent one . I found ones telling us to defend ourselves , could they be the ones these people claim are violent ? I just can't get it . Why this much hatred ? No matter how much we explain to them that they misunderstood they will still think so . Just how would anybody look at self defense verses as violent ones ?

8 AnswersReligion & Spirituality9 years agoDon't you think that Zakariya Butrus and the likes of him are ...?
People with ill mentalities ? I mean , he brings us a Hadith saying that Muhammad peace be upon him slept with a dead woman , that woman is the wife of his uncle and the mother of his cousin Ali Bin Abu Talib , he says that he had sex with her in her grave , and that he said he did it to comfort her but the fact is that he did it only for lust , but nobody actually sees the many mistakes in that
1 - This Hadith is crystal clear fabricated and everybody said so because it was told by ( Abu Alfaraj Al-Asfahany ) a man known among everybody as a fabricater
2 - He says that he had sex with her while she was in her grave clothes , how could he do that while she is 100% covered
3 - Why didn't anybody object on that espicially that Ali was among them ? And why didn't anybody among Roman and Persians and Arabs use that incedent to proof that he is not a prophet ?
4 - How does he praise a woman he just had sex with as a mother and such ( Prophet Muhammad of course ) ?
5 - In the first place THE HADITH DOESN'T SAY THAT HE HAD SEX WITH HER ! It says that he slept next to her to comfort her in her grave as she was the woman who took care of him with her husband after his mother ( Peace be upon him ) passed away , this Hadith shows us that he was a kind person who never forgets his beloved ones , still though , even if this Hadith views him as a good person , we can't accept it because it is fabricated and has many problems with the chain of the ones who said it , because Arabians use this chain in everything , even when somebody says that he heard a poem from a great poet ( That passed away before he was born ) he must say EXACTLY who told him so and who did that person hear that from ... etc . In conclusion , this Hadith views Muhammad peace be upon him as a kind person , but it is not accepted because it was fabricated
But amazingly , there is somebody who would have such an ill mentality to understand such a thing from this Hadith , I'm sure that if the man who fabricated it would get a heart attack from the filthy idead of Butrus and the likes of him , he takes a good Hadith , and turn it 180 degrees upside down
In the end , I want to ask : What are the reasons for such people to have these filthy ideas ?
2 AnswersReligion & Spirituality9 years agoCould somebody explain this to me ?
When Quran says that husband and wife must not have sex during her period ( Because it's harmful to her ) everybody says that Quran view women as impure creatures , but when all the other books say clearly that women are impure during their period it is OK
When some Muslim man does wrong everybody blames the whole religion , but when Hitler burned Jews nobody said a thing about Christianity
When a 30 years old Muslim marry a 10 years old child with her parents and her agreement he is called a pervert and a sick man , but when a Non-Muslim RAPES a 5 years old it is mentioned in the last page of the newspaper under 50 words max
When Quran tells a woman not to speak in a very soft voice so that she doesn't attract wolves it is hated and everyone claims that Quran tells women to shut up , but when (1 Corinthians 14:34-35) says that women must shut up because they are a disgrace to humanity it is OK
When Quran mentions stories of some evil women everybody claims that Quran says women are evil but they don't look at Quran mentioning stories of good women and bad men , and when Bible says that mother Eve is the sinner ( While Quran says both Adam and Eve are ) it is OK
When Quran tells women to put a veil so that they are not molested it is called oppressing of women , but when the Bible says that women must have their hair shaved if they don't veil because they are a disgrace to man it is OK
Look , I have nothing against Christians in general , but I'm talking about this group of them who repeat everything they hear on TV without thinking , if Islam really spread by sword , then how come there are so many Christians in Egypt since more than 1000 years ago ? Why believe everything they hear without opening Quran to make sure if it's right or wrong ?
And to those who do a ( Copy and Paste ) like Vin , don't waste your time , I won't even answer your usual claims that you hear from someone and repeat it like parrots
12 AnswersReligion & Spirituality9 years agoDon't forbid a doing and do the same?
( Don't forbid a doing and do the same , great shame on you if you do ) this is an old Arabian saying , but don't bother much about it .
What I want to ask about is : Why do SOME ( As you see I said SOME and not ALL ) Christians assault Islam and claim that there are things in it that actually don't exist , but if you look well in the Bible , you'll find that this thing is actually in it , so how come :
They say that when a man rapes a woman in , she's forced to marry him in Islam , but in Bible , when a man rapes a woman , he pays her father 50 shelenks ( Or whatever it is ) and she marries him for the rest of her life .
They say that a woman is treated as an impure thing while in her period , while Muhammad peace be upon him drank from the same cup as his wife when she was on her period , however , if you look at the Bible you'll see that it says women are TOTALLY impure on their period and whoever touches them becomes impure for a week
They say that it is unfair for a woman to take only half what a man takes in Islam , but in the Bible , a woman takes nothing .
They say that a woman's testimony is half of a man in Islam , but in Bible a woman's testimony is nothing .
They make a huge fuss about the veil , while Bible says to shave the head of the woman that doesn't veil herself because she's a disgrace to humanity .
They say that a woman is not allowed to teach in Islam ( And I challenge them to bring such a verse from full context or out of it ) while the Bible says a woman must never speak in church and she must only ask her husband when they return home , and Paul said that a woman is not allowed to teach a man and that she must submit completely to her husband .
They claim that there are violent verses in Quran ( By taking verses out of context ) but they don't look at the violence in the Bible ( They called these doings violent and not me ) .
They claim that Quran says there are 72 virgins for men in heaven ( And I REALLY don't know where did they hear that from ) but they don't look at the book of Ezekiel chapter 23 that describes sex .
Now , I don't want to open a discussion about these things , but I just want to ask :
How do they say we're doing something bad while they have that thing in their book ?
1 AnswerReligion & Spirituality9 years agoDo these Anti-Islamics have a proof ?
We all know about the current ( Destroy Islam ) campaign , first of all , it's a waste of time , it will never stop the spreading of Islam , but I like to ask something , those people who claim that there are violent verses in Quran , or that Muhammad peace be upon him did something wrong , do they have a proof , because I never hear of someone who says such things on TV and actually shows the book where he brought the claim from , unlike many Islamic channels on youtube that DO show us the books and that the claims are all false , so in the end , my question is :
What are the things that make some people so naive to believe everything they hear on TV even if TV said Tom is the friend of Jerry
8 AnswersReligion & Spirituality9 years agoCan somebody give me a list of the false claims about Islam?
I'm sure that all of us Muslims know about the claims some people say about our religion , some of them look dangerous , and some are really stupid , but what I'm asking is , can somebody give me a list of these claims according to the category :
1 - The claims about women treatment
2 - The claims about Terrorism
3 - The claims about Muhammad peace be upon him
4 - The claims about Quran
