I know there's been a massive volcanic eruption or something in the UK causing tens of thousands of flight delays etc. This is pretty serious stuff. How're you all in the UK and that area?
 
I'm personally not affected, although I do know some people that are having to drive now instead of fly. My prayers are with them.

Can you see the clouds of smoke etc?

Isn't it unhealthy..?
 
The volcanic eruption was in Iceland, Rashad - although the volcanic ash is affecting flights in the UK and many parts of northern Europe.
It is not necessarily visible, but apparently it affects the engines of airplanes. That's why all flights across the affected areas are on hold.

There were some health warning today, and people with breathing conditions were advised to stay indoors if they noticed a haze in the air or a sulfurous smell of 'rotten eggs'.

:wa:
No, I cant see any clouds of smoke..to me, there's no difference whether the volcano erupted or not :hmm:
 
Is it Allah's curse on western world for treating all muslims bad?
 
Icelandic eruptions can potentially last upto weeks, months or even years, especially if this current one sets of the nearby Katla volcano.

I am sorry, but I must give a warning. Those ashes will fall down to the ground, maybe to the land areas or maybe to the sea.

In 1982, mount Galunggung that located around 70 from Bandung city was erupted and showering ashes to atmosphere. Few weeks later those ashes fell on Bandung around 7:30 a.m. Bandung city became dark for few hours, darker than a night without moon.

It's at too high an altitude to be unhealthy... and even though you cannot see the ash cloud, there is a layer of dust from the cloud on most cars in my neighbourhood.
 
It's not only the UK who is affected by the ash.

I saw the dust cloud too, yesterday here in the Netherlands.

If that one erupts, then we are pretty much done for. Not only will there be an huge amount of ash but also widespread floods since it is located under vast icecaps. :skeleton:
 
It is actually quite amazing to look at the blue sky without any signs of planes or their vapour trails.
It's quiet too. Must be lovely for those who live near airports and normally have planes flying overhead all the time ...
 
Can't see any dust clouds where i am but it has been smelling a bit outside +o(

Its a nightmare for people stuck abroad...Some one in my family were supposed to be back on saturday but now they'v been told they wont get a flight till thursday!
 
Well, it's better the longer the planes don't fly. The smoke etc will cause thrust to the plane and could crash the engine. *tries to act smart after reading a CNN article on the matter*
 
May Allah help everyone there suffering from the smoke.

It is odd how we've had consistently clear blue skies ever since the volanic ash cloud hovered over the country.
 
This is the power of Allah swt, when things like this happens it humbles you, we are at the mercy of Allah swt.

I doubt it akhi, how is flight delays gonna get justice from these criminals?

Their main punishment will be in the afterlife - in hell
 
tbh i dont know what the problem is apart from a few lazy holiday makers get to chill out a few more days in the tropics
 
considering we cant see or smell the ash/smoke its amazing how we all buy into it so quickly. Does anyone know of anyone in Iceland where the volcano supposedly erupted? not saying that its not true but just how quick people are to believe. wouldnt be hard for authorities to concoct something of a major scale. maybe they wanted the airs clear for something else.(lol just my conspiracy theory)

anyway, no dust or smoke visable here and certainly no strange smells. well other than normal pollution.
