    Clerics term human organs transplantation bill un-Islamic

    I was led to believe in Islam - you were allowed to donate your organ (say a kidney) to save a life, but not for profit (this is something that sadly happens all too often in the subcontinent - poor people selling organs for money :( ) & It couldn't be a situation where the donation would cost...

    Police have since arrested two people - understood to be students from Quebec's Université Laval - but the investigation is ongoing. One suspect was detained at the mosque and the other was caught after a chase that ended near l'île d'Orléans around 15 miles from the scene. There are reports...

    Tight to a Pakistani Scholar in USA Over UN Resolution On Kashmir

    What is the obsession with Indians and Pakistanis on this forum with 'tight slaps' - what the hell is a tight slap? I've never heard anyone in real life use this phrase... Is this like that antiquated saying, 'my foot'? :lol:

    Terrorist attack on Canadian mosque reflects increasing Islamaphobia

    Can we wait till the identities of the two suspects has been published? We all think this is the work of white extremists/Neo Nazis - but, it would be nice to get some confirmation...lest we all look like fools in the end.

    No restrictions on telecast of Indian TV channels in Bangladesh.

    So the people concerned should manually tune the channels out...this isn't that hard. I don't watch any bnp-jamaat run channels, so in our house all the TV's have 'Banglavision', 'NTV', and before it was shut down jamaati channel 'Diganta' and a couple of others blocked. Why should the govt...

    Shots fired at Canadian mosque

    It's great being a muslim...the world over, terrorists kill us more than anyone else, but no one cares or worse says we deserve it. We become victims in the west and the response is...'this is payback' :( 6 dead, 8 injured.

    Someone needs to tell the close to a million Pakistanis living in the US - that, they actually don't want to be there :lol: So many Pakistanis in the US, Pakistan is no longer eligible for the Diversity Visa Scheme. So many Pakistanis... The percentage of applications is increasing every year...

    Is Bengal standing in the way of Indo-Bangla ties?

    Yes...water treaty is stuck because of Mamata and I won't even talk about her pandering to Jamaati supporters in her state.

    Trump's nod gives Egypt's Gen Sissi the go ahead to launch terror on his people

    I'm not a supporter of political islam as it stands today...it's simply a tool being used to take advantage of ppl. As such, I can't stand the MB, but it's still dangerous to include MB and ISIS in the same breath. They are miles apart in their modus operandi.

    What's holding back Bangladesh?

    The corruption stuff is overplayed. Just think of how many international entities have been fined over the years for handing out bribes the world over...countless. Companies and investors know you have to grease the wheel in the 3rd world. Our biggest problems was a lack of stability. Think of...

    What's holding back Bangladesh?

    Falling short compared to what? Most of this country is uneducated - your analysis of 'good English skills' is so far off base, I don't even know what to say :lol: No major disasters occurred - how far back are we talking here?? Country used to be devastated by horrific floods every other year...

    PM Hasina tours Tungiparha on rickshaw van with family

    if it stands the test of time...it is anything but a publicity stunt. There is no political mileage to gain - people like you would have found something negative to say regardless of where she was walking, on a van or on a bike. Her supporters...well, they're already her supporters, so of...

    800 million Muslims out of 1.4 billion are illiterate: Dr Farrukh Salem

    Hah! So, my educated guess was pretty much spot on. It's not that hard to figure out - most of Africa is illiterate (regardless of religion, so the muslim numbers there will stack up) and then you have a significant number of muslims in Pakistan, India and Bangladesh - a region that is still...

    Who cares what the UK thinks? LOL If we want to know what the UK thinks, we can simply look at what the American policy is on the issue.

    800 million Muslims out of 1.4 billion are illiterate: Dr Farrukh Salem

    Shame, you're the only uneducated Jew I've ever come across. Too busy killing Palestinians to go to school? On Topic: 50% of muslims are illiterate....not sure...35-40% probably is pretty much spot on.
