The easy way to gain weight

19 10 2008 Before you think this has become some sort of health blog and Im encouraging everyone to eat like there’s no tomorrow, this is one type of weight we all need to gain. Most people don’t want to be fat or large and usually want to lose weight if there is a need while others who are underweight intend to put on more weight. In order to do this they would eat more and try to gain muscle and do whatever is needed to be a little heavier. Point being whether you want to lose weight or gain weight, you do what it takes to do so. But on the day when the scales are measured and everyone wants their scales to be heavy, theres a simple way to increase it.


Abu Darda reported the Prophet of Allah [salAllahu alayhi wa salam] said:
“Nothing is weightier on the Scale of Deeds than one’s good manners.”[Bukharee]


There are many other ways and the dhikrullah is also something mentioned in a hadeeth as being heavy on the scales but if we try our upmost to have good manners which is free anyways, then our scales will also be heavy. In the case of yawmul qiyyamah, being heavy is a good thing and this really is the easy way to gain weight *smiles*

Good post.
Another way is this:

I must ask and want an honest answer to this.. why do the brits put corn on everything including pizza? that is just disgusting ...
sorry to be offensive for those of you who like it that way.. in fact I like anchovies on mine

Umm. i wasnt awarer that we did.
Pizza sure, but apart from that we just eat it on the cob with butter.

We put cheese on chips.Also, and i just KNOW this will make you squirm...In Yorkshire we eat something called Black Pudding. Its Fried Pigs Blood.


And it tastes crap.

Mashallah, very unexpected thread

Jazakallahu Khayr

yeah I am aware of that too.. the food wasn't very appetizing in England in general.. I ended up eating alot of Indian food, which under normal circumstances I don't like either.. but it was of choosing the lesser of two evils... although when I ended up in the hospital for food poisoning after eating a samosa from a street vendor I wasn't sure I chose wisely..
I have seen corn in everything including those sandwiches they sell at Tesco
also all the salad dressing had some form of alcohol -- and for a country that loves its tea, no one ever got my tea correct... people simply shouldn't put milk in your tea unless you ask for it no?

toward the end of my stay I had 'fish n chips' every day.. and was grateful they were skilled at that!

^Did you try a jacket potato? That is the most fantastic dish to come out of the British Isles.

And I like the subject of this thread very much. It reminds me of a Jolly Fat Man.

Don't get me started on British food. I love it! People just have prejudices.

Don't know what you mean about corn though. I hardly ever eat corn...

And Black pudding (You get it all over the UK) is lovely. Though obviously muslims shouldn't eat it...

Not as nice as Haggis though

I befriended this very domesticated 'lass' who had a very unusual accent, in the beginning I used to smile and nod alot but sob7an Allah two weeks into it, I totally understood what she was saying ( I do digress) she loved cooking, and she surprised me once with some sort of 'sheep' dish and jacket potatoes.. I was grateful given that I don't cook and didn't want to attempt it, she was surprisingly skilled at cooking--

I am not discriminating against British food alone (although it really was very bad)-- I ended up learning of a nice dish through trial and error wish I could have it again, believe it was called 'chatt'? it was made of garbanzo beans and crackers and yogurt .. it was a cool and easy on the stomach.. when I came back to the states and ordered it in an indo restaurant it wasn't as good as I had had in England -- something good did come of my trip.. also the lotion there and shower gels smell nicer than we have in the states (phone technology) is better too and the cabs look chic, and well luton airport can take you anywhere in Europe for lesser than it is to go to west london so it wasn't so bad

Chaat is indeed delish.

If every single person of every persuasion served a bowl of chaat to others with a smile, the world would be a big smiley bowl of yoghurt.
