Er, why not.. depends how many people want to participate this time.
Who would participate?
Should I seek a source of law other than God, when it is He Who has sent down unto you the Book (Qur'an) fully explained? And those whom We have given them the Book know that it has been sent down from the Lord with truth, so be not of those in doubt.
Er, I think we'd have to wait for a mod' to come on.. which could be a while. Off to your PMing, Inaayah.

Oki doke. I'm not sure we need mod permission, I'll probably run it by Sajid and see if he can sort a prize but other than that if the majority agrees I'd say we should go for it. I guess I could still ask though.

i think she meant make a poll asking who's intrested in entering..
Learn silence as you have learned speech.
Speech will guide you, and silence will protect you.
and about the polls , only Blue and Red ones can add them.
And as for the onewho fears standing in front of His Lord and restrainsthe soul from impure evil desires and lusts, verily, Paradise will be his abode [79:40-41]
One of the things that lacked in a number of entries was description, it wasn't vivid enough, there was no sense of presence.
You want your story to have 2 main selling points:
Plotline
Language
Generally all the stories were creative but it was executed poorly. For those who do wish to enter, description is definately the way forward. You want your readers to be completely absorbed...
Just my 2 cent.
I hope you all do well Inshaa'Allaah!
Perhaps a rigid criteria would help?

^ There was a word limit last time though, wasn't there?

A nice, big word limit of 3 or 4k would really help to improve those areas...
I lost last writing contest so I'm not up for one
Right now, sorry if any of you were expecting my excellent intense creativity for writing,on second thought I'll think about it..
Someone said to the Prophet, "Pray to God against the idolaters and curse them." The Prophet replied, "I have been sent to show mercy and have not been sent to curse." (Muslim)
