Brother Dhulqarnane Beauuuuuuuuuuuuuutiful Pictures Masha'allah , I would LOVE to go see that place one day Insha'allah.....I love villages :D

Well, I was born in Melaka, They call it "Melaka Bandar Raya bersejarah" But I hardly see anything "bersejarah" about it lol, but I dont have any pictures of where I was born......hmmm.....but there are some pictures of places I always used to visit in Melaka

After I used to go shopping, I always would stop here to make my Prayers



This is one of the Palaces scattered around Melaka, they always fascinated me :)



This is the center of the town of Melaka, These buildings were built by the British or the Dutch whilst they occupied Malaysia if I'm not mistaken. I used to come here and just chill :shade: and then maybe I would go shop at the Mahkota Parade shopping mall around the corner :D



This is the Mahkota Parade mall which is around the corner :D



Ah well.....that's all I can find right now :) if I find any more later I'll post them up Insha'allah.

Alot of my family members live in Nuneaton ( have you heard of the Ahmedabadi family? :rollseyes ) They've taken over Fitton Street (1 street away from the local mosque) and High Street (i think its called high street).

My ex lives there too :hiding:

Please remember that we shouldn't be arguing over nationalistic points anyway. We're one ummah, and if we argue over dunya - then how are we to gain the aakhirah?


Narrated in Abu Da'wud that the Messenger of Allah (sal Allaahu alayhi waSalam) said,

"He is not one us who calls for `Asabiyyah, (nationalism/tribalism) or who
fights for `Asabiyyah or who dies for `Asabiyyah."


And in another Hadith, the Messenger of Allah (sa Allaahu alayhi waSalam) referring to
nationalism, racism, and patriotism said: "Leave it, it is rotten." [Muslim and Bukhari]

I've noticed that when we look at everything Allah has made we think its soo amazing and beautiful and we just splendour at it. Such as the ocean, the stars, the trees, the landscape etc, but then wen we look at the buildings and civilisation it seems sooo imperfect. Isnt this a clear enuff sign of Allahs existence...

They swear their strongest oaths by Allah, that if a (special) sign came to them, by it they would believe. Say: "Certainly (all) signs are in the power of Allah: but what will make you (Muslims) realise that (even) if (special) signs came, they will not believe."?

All that is on earth will perish: (Surah Rahman 55:26)


The life of this world is nothing but a game and a diversion. The abode of the Hereafter-that is truly Life if they only knew. (Surat Al-'Ankabut, 64)


Whatever you have been given is only the enjoyment of the life of this world. What is with Allah is better and longer lasting …(Surat ah-Shura, 36)


… They rejoice in the life of this world. Yet the life of this world, compared to the Hereafter, is only fleeting enjoyment. (Surat ar-Ra'd, 26)



And oh yeah, bro abd Majid:


Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) as saying that: Allah the Exalted and Glorious, said: I have prepared for My pious servants which no eye has ever seen, and no ear has ever heard, and no human heart has ever perceived but it is testified by the Book of Allah. He then recited:" No soul knows what comfort has been concealed from them, as a reward for what they did". (Sahih Muslim)

RIGHT akheel kareem, and this thread I made so we can gratefull to Allah. Cause all what we have is always come from Allah and from his love that He willing to give us :brother: . And its also a self introspection, IF we have a beutiful homeland, then how can someone (like our scholars) who came from a desert and infertile country able to gain a lot of knowledges, why cant we? Right? So I think thats one of the lesson which we can take from this thread insha Allah. Sometimes we just cant be a thankful slave for what we have accepted. :( . But its lovely to see another muslims country, that as if we also feel proud of the beauty of their homeland :brother:

This is the Atlantis Resort Hotel, It's where the King of Saudi stays whenever he comes...........I go here on the weekends sometimes just to walk around or go to Starbucks and maybe scare a few tourists ;D




This is another one....you can see the Atlantis hotel in the background....as you guys can see it's on another Island called Paradise Island so we have to cross a bridge to get there. The side with all the houses is Nassau.



Ermm....Here's a bunch of old fashioned looking houses with weird painting ;D.....My house is about a 10 minutes drive from here



This is a picture of downtown Nassau :) I come here sometimes to watch the big cruise ships Dock



Small part of Downtown Nassau....






This is the Cloisters on Paradise Island :) There's a pretty wide spread of lawn a few steps down and me and my friends fancy this place for a picnic spot, and then we play tag amongst the pillars :p

I grew up in a small Town called Tariffville, Connecticut. I do not have any photos of my own of the area. But, I did find some pictures on line of the time and locations of where I grew up. I remember the areas well.

This is a view of the Farmington river, much the same as it was when I was a boy. I was able to see this view from our kitchen.



This is another view of the river, this view was visible from the yard of the grade school I attended. There is always a sandbar at the base of the old RR trestle, I used to swim out to it and fish from it.



This next one is "Frog Pond" it was our water supply. Also where I learned to ice skate and play hockey. the pond is no longer there. It is now filled in and is a large housing developement. In the distance is a square shaped hill. The proper name is "Manituk Mountain" We used to call it the "Giants Coffin" That is about 5 miles distance in the picture. I hiked to it and climbed it many times as a boy.



This picture was the old power line that brough us electricity. Although the picture was taken in 1913, it still looked the same when I was a boy. Walked the distance of it many times to go deer hunting.



This last picture is just a typical scene of the neighborhood I grew up in.

After posting about my hometown a few posts back. It stirred up some old memories. I looked for some more old pictures online. I found this aerial photograph taken in1992. The town still looked much the same except for a lot of new buildings and roads that were not there when I was growing up. I drew an arrow pointing to the house I grew up in. It was built in the late 1700's. The factory I circled in red was origianly a textile mill built in the early 1800's. During WW2 and the Korean war it was a munitions factory. Later it was owned by my stepfather and Mr. White, they designed the Poly Choke, a device for adjusting shot patterns on a shot gun. Mr. White was the inventor, my step dad was an investor and engineer in the co. he designed the machinery for making the chokes.

as salaamu alaykum akhee

yeah most houses are made from mud , it sounds worser than it actullay is , they're proper houses just made from mad bricks!!
and the mountains are'nt hills...LOOL!! ;D;D....they're proper mountains/jibaal,
the ones with the lava and all are called volcanoes right....there are'nt any there alhamdulillah!!!..the shiekh's masjid!!..which shiekh ,the shikehs dn't have specific masjid just for them, but He does have a private library in his house...they use the main masjid for the brothers!!..and that's that big white building in the middle!!..the women's section's on top !!
and the shia are basically everywhere because it's there home land but there are alot of damaaji sunni's alhamdulilah...but alhamdulillah ..they all respect the students of knowledge walhamdulillah....but most of the shia's live far from the actual camp anyways!!

And the Sheikhs Masjid is the big white building in the middle........and yes, Dammaj is mostly made up of Shi'a people, and it's mostly only the Sheikhs camp which is Sunni

Indonesia is on a continental-oceanic destructive plate boundary. You can say that destructive plate boundaries go through four phases. There is an oceanic-oceanic phase which produces low-lying islands like the Mariana islands, an early continental-oceanic phase which produces mountains and island chains similar to those of the Andes and the Cascades, a late continental-oceanic phase which produces mountainous islands such as those of south-east Asia, and an early continental-continental phase which forms mountains with a small number of volcanoes, like those in the Mediterranean. When the two continents fuse a mountain range like the Himalayas forms, halting most of the convergent movement.

I will go there someday insha Allah :X ;D . I wanna see the mountain (ooh yes, but I think mountain and volcanoes just the same ;D ...silly me) there...to me those are just hills, cause not very high. Indonesia have many mountains, and its about 700 till 5000 (or more) metres high masha ALlah. And some of them still active. Can I say..."Indonesia have many mountains and some of them are volcanoes"? ;D
Ooh I have to go to Sumatera today for about a month, wondering wether I can write something in the board:. Please pray for me guys, its about 5000 kilometres and I will drive to there insha Allah. :) I will take more pics and I will show you all when I log into this thread insha Allah. :sl: (

The view in my photo can't be seen anymore, they are doing construction work on the market square. There used to be two big fountains, and loads of pigeons.

There is not much good about Nottingham. It's wet, dull and full of gun crime. Nottingham Castle is not even a castle, all that's left is a wall. The gates are rather spectactular, and so are the caves, but the rest is just rubble. There is also a Victorian house with an art gallery built on top of it.

There is not much good about Nottingham. It's wet, dull and full of gun crime. Nottingham Castle is not even a castle, all that's left is a wall. The gates are rather spectactular, and so are the caves, but the rest is just rubble. There is also a Victorian house with an art gallery built on top of it.
:w:
I agree. Nottingham is a dump in my opinion. Too many gangs, guns and drugs. Nottingham Castle though is a castle. I've been in it thousands of times, free during the school holidays. There are alot of caves and alot of history in Nottingham but it's a shame that people, mainly blacks and black-wannabes that have ruined it.

if you associate gangs,guns and drugs with blacks then i think your categorization of the non blacks who are part of gangs who have guns and who sell drugs in the ''black-wannabe'' section is correct

so let me get this straight if you part of a ''gang'' if you carry a ''gun'' if you sell ''drugs'' --> = black or wannabe black :?

until you let in the Africans? or do you mean until you snatched them away from their families and homes and exported them to the other side of the planet for centuries?

Evendo this never happend to my people my stomach still turns thinking about it

if you knew anything about your own country today you would know the ones importing drugs to Brittian are non blacks

the ones importing poor girls and then exploit them for money are non blacks

you need to realise crime doesn't have a phenotype or colour

saying crime is black culture is like me saying racism is white culture

that's not the reality and that's not the truth

Salisbury:-


(A big maze. This was awesome :D)

Old Sarum is the site of the earliest settlement of Salisbury, in England. The site contains evidence of human habitation as early as 3000 BC. Old Sarum is mentioned in some of the earliest records in the country. It sits on a hill about two miles north of modern Salisbury.

Old Sarum was originally a hill fort strategically placed on the conjunction of two trade routes and the River Avon, Hampshire. The hill fort is broadly oval in shape. 1300 feet in length and 1200 feet in width, it consists of a bank and ditch with an entrance on the eastern side....
The Romans held it as a strong military station, and it was admitted to the privileges of the Latin law, under the name of Sorbiodunum.

Well, I was born in Melaka, They call it "Melaka Bandar Raya bersejarah" But I hardly see anything "bersejarah" about it lol, but I dont have any pictures of where I was born......hmmm.....but there are some pictures of places I always used to visit in Melaka

After I used to go shopping, I always would stop here to make my Prayers

This is the center of the town of Melaka, These buildings were built by the British or the Dutch whilst they occupied Malaysia if I'm not mistaken. I used to come here and just chill :shade: and then maybe I would go shop at the Mahkota Parade shopping mall around the corner :D
:sl:

Me too was born in Melaka..but i don't have the latest picture at this moment
i only have this vintage pic


British Military Hospital,Terendak Camp in 60's,Tanjung Bidara..i was there in 80's


Nearest town to Terendak Camp,Sungai Udang.See that sign board showing a direction to Port Dickson,my home town:D

Here are some pictures of the area in Connecticut I grew up in. I took all of these pictures last week.

This is some scenes of what was my grandparents farm and were I pretty much grew up. I spent my summers and school vacations working the farm from the time I was old enough to walk. On the weeks and months I was there it was wake up at daylight and go to bed at sunset. There was always some field work to do. Planting, plowing, weeding, milking cows, etc. When I was a kid all of this was open fields and either gardens or pasture or fruit orchards. My Grandparents have died many years ago and my cousins now live on the farm, they have built houses and no longer farm it. But, walking around brought back many old memories. the old farm house is now long gone. But here is where I grew up.

These old stone walls were all handmade over several generations, The farmers would use the stones cleared from the fields and pile them up making the wall. Connecticut is very rocky and every time you plow there are more rocks. This particular wall my grandfather started, then his kids and then my generation. I put many rocks on that wall. there are sever miles of stone wall scattered throughout the old farm. Some were already over 200 years old when My grandparents came to the US.



Here are some of the old pastures and gardens:





















This used to be my favorite hill to sit on and just relax watching the clouds. One of my cousins dug up all the sand and rocks to use for making the concrete he used to build the foundation of his house and driveway.



This buildings are a couple miles from the farm, they were houses for early factory workers. The were built in the late 1700s CE. The house I actually grew up was of the same type and built at the same time.



This is one of the oldest factories in the US. the workers for it lived in those houses. I really don't know what it made . I believe it was Barrels and wagon wheels. In 1854 it started making Drums and still makes them.



This is just some scenery around the area, all are within 10 miles of the old farm.

originally









These pictures are in Winsted Connecticut. About 10 miles from the Farm. the old factory buildings were textile mills built in the early 1800s. In 1955 Connecticut had a huge flood and those buildings were underwater. the outside walls held up, but the interior is destroyed. they have been vacant ever since.

I don't know much about the country save for the photos and would really actually appreciate if there are membershere from Tanzania who would tell me more about it. thank you and Jazakoum Allah khyran

Are you by any chance an East African of South Asian decent? Many of my friends hail from Tanzania and surrounding East African countries but come from South Asia. I'm just wondering. It's kind of weird because I just watched the Last King of Scotland, which kind of shows the perils they went through the reign of dictator Idi Amin. I'm glad to know that there is at least one East African around besides me. :sunny:

I'm glad to know that there is at least one East African around besides me. :sunny:
No-- I am sorry imsad -- I love Africa very much but I am Arabic :embarrass .. I prefer Muslim though lol .. due to my dad's job we traveled alot, I always felt homeless growing up though imsad-- but know in retrospect, I appreciate the experience.. My dad wrote the first Arabic/swaheli dictionary at least I believe it was the first? :smile: but it is a language I don't speak, though would love to learn it one day.. I'd also really love to meet people or know of Muslims from Tanzania from this board.. (I don't think we have any though?).. and I have never met any Tanzanians in real life either... =(

Swahili? That's pretty cool actually my Dad knows Arabic, Swahili, and a bunch of other languages himself and when I was little I was able to speak the language fluently. It's cool to see that you were born in Tanzania. I just assumed you were South Asian because a lot of my friends who were from Uganda, Tanzania and other countries of East Africa were mainly from South Asia. You're right though, at the end of the day we're all Muslims, alhamdulilah.:happy:

After I used to go shopping, I always would stop here to make my Prayers



This is one of the Palaces scattered around Melaka, they always fascinated me :)



This is the center of the town of Melaka, These buildings were built by the British or the Dutch whilst they occupied Malaysia if I'm not mistaken. I used to come here and just chill :shade: and then maybe I would go shop at the Mahkota Parade shopping mall around the corner :D



This is the Mahkota Parade mall which is around the corner :D



Ah well.....that's all I can find right now :) if I find any more later I'll post them up Insha'allah.
Melaka is AWESOME!!
I absolutely LOVED Jonker street, that place was amazing.

I was born in Aleppo, Syria. Love itt.
Here's a photo i took, i can't find anything better.

I see some very beautiful places in this thread, Its nice to see that we care about the places we come from...

I wish my city was as beautiful...

I come from Manchester and lived on the border of Salford/Cheetham Hill for most of my life... I also lived in Amsterdam for a year or so and have lived in Glasgow once or twice..

One of my favorite places in Manchester, Rusholmes 'Curry Mile'


I guess this is the place I most like in Manchester... 'The Theatre of Dreams' - Old Trafford Stadium... Home of Manchester United FC

well, i thought i would share these pics, regardless of the fact i wasnt born here... but i did spend most of my years growing up here ( from the age of 7 so thats nearly 20 years ) and i still live in this area.


a tiny little village in the middle of no where..


This is a place i actualyl spent most of my free time during my teenage years.. contemplating and philosophizing.


and this is the town where i live now...
When i was younger i really resented living in the rural countryside.. but now i wouldnt have it any other way.. even tho i do miss Amsterdam...
