I suppose the main one is Salaah timings. Because the timetables can be quite awkward at times.

Also the fact that we have to mix with the opposite sex, I mean its difficult, and its something a lot of Muslims fall prey to. (May Allah guide us all)

Oh, and I see a lot of Muslims feel pressured into doing things like listening to Music, smoking and chasing girls to fit in with the crowd (Again, may Allah guide us all and forgive us for our shortcomings)

I suppose thats the 3 main problems I see, being a Muslim at college.

Now, if the question was entitled "Lazy guy vs College", I could probably write a book on it :rolleyes:

In My College...Prayer Timings Happens To Be No Big Issue...Its The Second Point U Mentioned Bro...Da Mixing Of Sexes...It Happens Alot And Yes...ALOT Of People Do Fall Into It :-\ That's One Of The Biggest Problems Faced...

But Also...:Alhumdill There Is The Islamic Society In Our College Trying To Do Their Best In College And Sort Things Out :coolious:

EDIT:

alot problemz and stuff will arise when someone goes to college..its jus a matter of which crowd you hang around with...hand around with the right crown and InshaAllah everything will go well...

Women that's probably the main issue for us guys and the amount of fitnah that's seen as being a right of passage.

Erm, prayer! But it's not that much of a big problem, most teachers allow you to go some don't,

Most of the time we can leave lesson, but some mean teachers say NO :(

But den you get these sweet non Muslim ones even reminding you! :D
