    Question Questions asked by Non-muslims (OP)


    As salam alaikum,
    My queston is:Wat's the most stupid or silliest question a non muslim has asked u about Islam? And wat was ur response?

    The 2 most stupid questions I've recieved are "do u take showers with that[hijab] on?" and "Do u wear a wig under there?" I always answered no without any other witty comment.

    So share ur silly questions with me plz. Shukran


    As salam alaikum

    In Malaysia - it's easy to spot halal goods. But is it really 'halal'? It's between the manufacturer and God. As far as we do, as long as they are 'halal' logo or certified halal we can use/eat them.

    Sadly, hard to do this in Indonesia. A friend of mine went to Indonesia. He saw a Restaurant which display the calligraphy 'Bismillahirrahmanirahim' in front of the entrance. To his surprises, they served pork.

    Re: Stupid Questions



    Them, in slow English: Do...you...feel...hot...with...that *points to the hijaab*...on?

    Me..normal American accent: Nopes, why'd you think that?

    Them: Uhmm..just curious. *omg she speaks English like us!*

    I can't remember the others...

    Although, I don't really mind that question or any question on hijaab/niqaab when it comes with genuine interest. Provided they don't think I'm stupid, I'll answer their question without sarcasm. (And when they ask without belittling, its not a stupid question.)

    Of course

    Mamak - 24 hours per day, 7 days per week.
    Malay - when they feel they want to open, they would open. When they are lazy to do so they dont open.

    Might not be as funny as it first seems. I now several Christian women from Jordan and Lebanon. They wear both the hijab and the niqaab. What is funny is my Daughter wears the hijab but does not wear the niqaab, so when they go shopping together they are seen as being Muslim but my Daughter is thought to be Non-Muslim.
