Sis Asian queen no offence but is it neccessary for u to always end the words wid oooos and eeees. whats wid dat.. your the only one on this forum that does that.. seriously theres no need for it.. we understand what you trying to say so plz stop that.

and for the slang business i agree wid da anonmous person who created that thread. non on the slag bit thats was a bit too far.. but we as muslim should be representing ourselves in a good way.. there are also non muslims on this forum and none of them use slang one even started a thread complainin about the muslims using slang and in fthere is a hadith that prohibits muslim using it..i was shocked when i read that.

I know where u coming from wid da sland cuz i use it myslef bevcause its much easier to use type using slang, but dont use too much of it.. . thats all i can say about the sland..

There must be some irony here, when you are complaining about being stereotyped and in that complaint you actually fit the stereotype.

"teef nocked out", "violent chicks out there" - a gang member as well!

Imagine how the noble Prophet (peace be upon him) would speak. Would he emulate the street urchin/hip-hop/bhangra/gang/hood type speech? Would he promote the idea of talking and writing in a way that shows ignorance is cool?

I suggest people to speak properly. People are less likely to take you seriousely when speaking slang. You can speak with your freinds but when you wan't to communicate with people speak & write properly.

You never know you might see an improvement in your spelling.

Sometimes as a new muslim it makes me sick the way people talk about others.

It's like theres a 'us' and 'them' mentality when truly in islam we are all one, but I guess some Muslims dont know that, to me this thread only has proved to some extent that alot of us need to change ourselfs before we can even begin to raise our eye brows at others.


Edit: Oh man, actually wallahi, I love you all for the sake of Allah but some people are the excat reason why I dont want to have kids.

The whole attitude, confrontational behaviour, and the rest. May Allah save me and my kids from any sort of ignorance.

I don't think when we tell each other advice about slang it is because we are judging each other, nor is it it because we think we are arrogant or "too perfect" for those who can't type in proper English.

I'm not saying by using slang I'm judging you for who you are, but rather what you sound like. You're getting angry over this, but how do you think we feel everytime we have to try to read a post filled with all those unncessary letters/numbers and meanings? It sounds ridiculous.

Some of us strive to show our personalities in the posts with emoticons, colors, smileys, slang, etc, but you kill the whole purpose of getting your point across, whatever it may be. We aren't on the streets, and this is a learning environment, so why are some making it quite the opposite?

Now if some of you want our respect as fellow members (I'd give you it either way though) then why would you try to justify a point about slang using slang or advise someone on a serious issue using slang?

There are members on this board who aren't fluent in English and some members who are much older than most of you and aren't into this slang trend going on, do some of you understand how much harder some of you are making it for them just because you refuse to type properly?

This forum has a great potential in teaching everyone something and it's getting lowered because not many are able to get through the first page of a thread.

If you can't type properly because it's a habit, then break the habit; If it's because you're lazy, don't let your laziness affect the rest of us; and if its soley because "it's your choice", then don't complain about us judging you.

You know how crazy it sounds when you are trying to justify using slang over a language that everyone could equally partake in? There's more cons than pros ya ukhati.

This post is for everyone inshallah, not just the thread starter.

Personally on this forum I think it's a matter of respect. People need to understand and remember that we are family and that there are things that annoy others and that if we can we can try to make life easier for others.

For example, I, because of where I've been brought up and because of the way I have been brought up have always used slang and if I spoke on here 'normally' as I normally would not alot of people would understand me and they would get annoyed because that is something that annoys them, so I stopped speaking like that and only do so sometimes in the right threads.

I think it's part of Islam that you make things easy for your brothers and sisters, so why not make it easy, if you know that saying something will make upset your sister or brother or that speaking in a way will upset them then would it not be better for us to not say it or for us to not speak in that way.

Anyhow, I'll leave it there, its upto the individual and how much they love their friends and community to change the way they speak or what they say so not annoy others.

Not Justifying It To Be Used On The Forum...But Im Just Saying...Know That It's Common With Them People To Speak Slang..You Can't Dub Them Chavz/Idiotz Or Whatever...A Simple "Come Again?" Or "Could You Explain What This Means Please" Would Do...

UK's Vicky Pollards 'left behind'
Britain's teenagers risk becoming a nation of "Vicky Pollards" held back by poor verbal skills, research suggests.

And like the Little Britain character the top 20 words used, including yeah, no, but and like, account for around a third of all words, the study says.

Lancaster University's Professor Tony McEnery who conducted the research said vocabulary size was defined early on.

His study of blogs, questionnaires and speech found teenagers used half the words of average 25 to 34-year-olds.

When things are funny it is because they ring true with people
Prof McEnery

His study of a database of teenage speech suggested teenagers had vocabulary of just over 12,600 words compared with the nearly 21,400 words that the average person aged 25 to 34 uses.

Prof McEnery said in his study: "Of note when examining the word 'no' is the frequency with which the word is accompanied by the word 'but'.

"These words occur in the sequence 'but no' or 'no but' almost twice as frequently in teenage speech as it does in young adult or middle aged speech."

The sequence is particularly reminiscent of Vicky Pollard's trademark "Yeah but, no but".

"I think it was extremely well observed as most comedy often is.

"When things are funny it is because they ring true with people," said Prof McEnery who conducted the research conducted by Tesco Internet phone.

Verbal skills

But he says there is a serious point to the research, which is to highlight what he sees as the neglect of verbal communication skills in schools.

"While the school curriculum shows a strong focus on literacy, speech has been relatively neglected in the curriculum," he said.

Employers often complained that new employees were unable to answer the telephone in the formal way required of them for work and that they were also intimidated by speaking formally in meetings, the professor added.

He put this down to a lack of training and the overuse of technologies such as computer games and MP3 players.

"This trend, known as technology isolation syndrome, could lead to problems in the classroom and then later in life.

"Employers are already complaining that first jobbers are lacking basic verbal communication and it seems things could be set to get worse.

"Kids need to get talking and develop their vocabulary."

Tesco, which commissioned the report, said it was responding by launching a scheme which allows all UK comprehensive schools to interact and communicate with other schools around the country using its internet phone technology.

Assalamu Aleykum,

Sister just for the record don't think I'm against anyone or that I'm with a group saying this or that.

I do wonder though, are you taking this thread as a sort of joke? A place to score points? Because I, personally, find this thread upsetting, when I read you say 'so in yo face' I can understand that two ways, either your joking around and well I mean this is hardly the place or your being serious and if you were then again it's not an 'us' against 'them' or a point scoring thread sister.

Maybe I've understood wrong, please correct me.

Your brother,

Eesa.

well :p

typical anon lol :p always hidin :D:D

this is what i said in the slang thread, just cos someone talks in a certain way it cant make them a certain type of person, what happen to the "dont judge a book by lookin at the cover" or or "before you look at others, look at yourself"

i think most of the people that use slang here, use it in their own groups, like people they are familiar with, and if they replyin to someone they dont know they will most probably not use slang! same with a discussion, if a serious discussion is happenin, people will be serious :D

but back on topic, agreed :D we shouldnt judge anyone :D

You see sister, do you think this is a way for a Muslimah to act? Forget what others say, I want to ask you about what you've just said, do you think it is right and a sign of taqwa for a Muslim to say "A FEW KNOBS..." or even "WAT THEEEE......" be honest with me, am your brother, am not trying to score points or nothing, but do you think you should refer to people as 'KNOBS'??


Your Brother,

Eesa.

How do you expect a kid who's grown up in a NORMAL, STATE SCHOOL all their lives to NOT pick up this stuff. Just Becuase they speak like that it doesn't make them what you say they are. There are quite a few decent brothers who speak like that, but they know how to speak to their elders...They also know where to speak properly.......Even I speak like that among my friends. What are you going to do about that? It just shows that we're not so proud of our status (Being an upper class, stuck up, spoilt fool)

Stop being such a stuck up person. I take it you're extremely rich and spoilt. Go to chess clubs after school, go to a school like Dulwich college and pay over £25,000 every term. Not everybody has that sort of money.

Assalamu Alaikum

ok everyone chill. Let's call it a day inshallah and move on. No one was meant to judge anyone else, we just hate the slang.

Just forget it. If you don't care, then do as you please inshallah.

May Allah forgive us if we have wronged each other intentionally or unintentionally ameen.


The Believers are but a single Brotherhood: So make peace and reconciliation between your two (contending) brothers; and fear Allah, that ye may receive Mercy.
49:10

Those who spend (freely), whether in prosperity, or in adversity; who restrain anger, and pardon (all) men;- for Allah loves those who do good;-[B]3:134[/B]

We asked you all for the sake of Allah to stop. It's up to you to do it or not.

I'm through with this thread, all that needs to be said has been said inshallah.

fi aman Allah
w'salaam
