Dishdash Staggers into the forum

[dishdash]

Salaam alaikum wr wb to my :brother: 's and :sister: 's (cool emoticons guys!)

I've been referred here by Sir Zubair who is quite possibly the most annoying git I've ever had the misfortune to post with. I'm from Muslimvillage.net a glorious little oasis of Australian Islam but have been talked into having a sniff round this site. Have to say it looks pretty good from what I can see so far, mash'Allah - there are a lot of interesting looking threads and characters.

So a wee bit about myself - I am an Irish revert living in Sydney Australia, married with 5 kids and one on the way insh'Allah in August. I am not a controversial poster you'll find. Quiet, innocuous, shy, inoffensive, backs down easily, gentle and wouldn't hurt a fly. Unless he put his little fly-hand on me in which case I'd send him to the cemetery.

So who are the cool kids here? ANyone to stay away from? Give me a bit of gossip to be going on with.

WHere are you lot all from anyway?

Finland? Excellent - I now have someone to ask about 20 hour days of Ramadan!!!! So Albanian then? We've got a huge Albanian community up in the rainforests of Northern QUeensland! ALhamdulilah, Marreeba is quite the oasis and the last thing you would expect to find there! A few Afghans there too.

Nah - curry-munching little twerp! Hehe! Wallahi he is a beautiful brother who is sadly disabled by his living in Kiwiland. New Zealand is a torrid little collection of rocks, overpopulated with sheep, horrid little people with painful accents who want to tell you about the time they were extras in LotR and, well, that's it really. He is possibly the one bright spot in an otherwise forgetable expanse of emptiness.

Insh'Allah I shall marry him off though.

Yupp, you got someone to ask that now!!! :happy:
Really? An Albanian community? Alhamdullilah, that sounds great!!!! :happy: :happy: :happy:
I would never have thought that, wow it took me by surprise, but mashallah, that's so wonderful to hear!!!!!

NIce. So do we lose many brothers or sisters in Ramadan up there?! Isn't there some sort of thing whereby if you go above a certain line, your fasting ISN'T in line with the traditional Fajr-Maghreb? I heard tales of Saudis who buy homes up near the Arctic Circle in order to have fasts of 3 or 4 hours! I'm sure that's rubbish but.... oh so many questions!

Now was that a racial stereotype my seppo friend? If so, good! We're clearly going to get on.

There's no better place to let one's xenophobia get an airing than one's introduction thread, don't you agree?

Yeah - SZ rocks. My brother from another mother.

Alhamdulilah - another 'stralian! I miss the Afghan mosque in Perth... <sigh> I properly reverted in Perth too, alhamdulilah. Mash'Allah - Islam in Perth is in a vibrant and healthy state. I remember my very first taraweeh in my very first Ramadan... it was an Islamic school I think - we broke fast in one of their prefab huts (we all brought food) and the brother I was with pointed out 18 nationalities in that room (19 including me!) I remember that there was an Algerian sat next to and Indonesian sat opposite a South African and an Afghan...

I also remember it was the first time I ate madjool dates........... mmmmmm! Have never looked back!

[F.Y.]

Hmmmm the Afghan mosque? Never heard of that - would that be the one in Mirrabooka? Or were you South of the River? The school you're talking about - was that AIC by any chance? Wow - im so glad to meet someone who's been to Perth! Yay!
Yeah - I miss Perth heaps, mate.
When was the last time you visited the place? I love the people - they're so happy and friendly. I think so anyway. :)

Peace to you dear brother.

My daughter from my first marriage still lives in Perth, so I get to go over plenty alhamdulilah.

The Affghan mosque - sis it's the main one - on William Street? The big white one?!

AIC... um - Cannington or Canning Vale or something... can't rightly remember. But I think it is the only Moslem school in the area.

The reason why the Sydney umah is so messed up is this delightful obsession with maintaining nationality silo's. You know - Turkish mosque, Bangladeshi mosque, Lebanese Muslim Association etc. They so rarely mix. As the well-meaning brother mentioned above, we are ALL Moslems, alhamdulilah and that is really all that matters. I felt the spirit of that in Perth. Am still desperately seeking it in Sydney.

[SirZubair]

I Love your avatar sidi !!

[F.Y.]

Ahhh! Yes, the mosque on Brisbane Street - "Perth Mosque". I didnt know they referred to it as the Afghan Mosque. Yes, its lovely and white so when the sun shines - the bright reflection ...blinds you :) hehe.

Yeah, Cannington - there was also one in Thornlie. But you'll be surprised to know there are many new Muslim schools opened up now.

It was built by Afghan cameleers and was the first (or third... dang - can't remember!) mosque in Australia (mid 19th century)

I Love your avatar sidi !!

I don't like yours though akhi...

;D

[F.Y.]

Yes, 1904 I believe. I saw the stone that has the date engraved on it in the mosque. And the other writing on the stone I believe is in a Persian sort of script. Yeah.
