Gangsterism means the way of life of a gangster. The word isn’t used much though, especially not by gangsters. Some don’t wish to call their way of life anything whilst others make a song and dance about it by using catchy words like ‘Thug Life’ and M.O.B or call themselves playas, pimps, hustlas, souljahs and the list goes on.
Whether it’s the crimes like drugs, robberies, credit card fraud, scams, murders, rapes, violence or it’s the non criminal acts like the lingo, raving, zina, alcohol and swearing etc. Everybody reading this has been affected by Gangsterism. I mean it’s everywhere you go, whether you are a gangster, know of a gangster, seen a gangster, met a gangster or want to be a gangster. You’re all familiar with the phenomenon of Gangsterism.
Today’s gangsters start from the common everyday thug with his/her Gangster garms (that thick massive silver chain which probably cost a tenner from market), weed/snouts, hip hop/garage/bhangra, with a pimped up ride or a crappy stolen car or in the passenger side of one. Robbing phones, swiping cards or doing scams etc. Moving up to the O G’s of the ‘Hood’ calling the shots and destroying youngsters’ lives and using them for their own set ups. Then you have the national mafia’s with their imports and exports, organized crime and involvement in legitimate businesses.
gangster wannabe's seem very retarded seriously i feel sry for anyone who think its cool.
no offence to anyone out there but gangsters do walk in a retarded way anyway ...(i do that sometimes when i get my basketball shots in but that's it )
ya know I look around ma colege, i see all dem bad manz, thugz, so called G's, they all have a REP [re[reputation], na'a'mean, n ders 1 fing dats the same 'tween all of 'em..dey all have dat gangsta walk, u know d 1 am chatin' bout, lyk a hop skip n jump...so lookin around i saw dat i had 2 increase me rep, so i fort yeaa i iz gona get ma own gangsta walk....

wow i laughed all the way through your post bro. hops skip n jump loool.
Can u try writing a bit sanely lol, not complete gangsta'sz....
There are such like that at my college, but ive never seen a typical gangsta walking in that way. Well i guess i dont pay attention.
*Without Allah, without Islam, life would be meaningless. If I've ever learned patience, it's because of this. Alhamdulillah...*
salam,
lool... u know honestly if u do it to joke around and people take it as a joke then i would say the laughing is good. However, there is no such thing as being both Muslim and Gangster/Gangstar bc define being Gangster. It's all about violence. Think about it, Muslims are against any act of violence. One cannot just walk the way Gangsters do and talk the way they do and call themselves Gangsters. Who are the real Gangsters?> Those who carry guns or weapons, who spend their time with obscene unmodest girls, and have no religion. A gangster is one who actually does the violence than talk about it.
Lastly, the gangsters who wear all the chains including the cross or any symbolic chains which represent their religion (specifically muslim, catholic, jews) actually have no religion, because they(muslims, people of the book) do not promote violence. Many carry the cross around their neck and promote violence and call themselves christian or catholics, but they're not practicing and yet before they commit any act of violence they pray to God real quick hoping nothing happens to them..well I got news for you, they're not real to their religion because the practicing catholics/chrisitians and jews are known as the People of the Book. The People of the Book are against violence. Hence, one cannot believe in a religion and be a gangster. It's down to either Gangster(violence promoters) or Religion.

Indeed i do not wish to converse in such a disgusting 'ghetto' lingo, but hey was my chance, so i pounced on the opportunity.... and sis Glacier....'sometimes' nicely said....
Gangster life didn't get anyone anything, apart from a few jewels, bag full of money, big house, flash motor and so on oh and a conscience....you may think you're getting respect from the people around you, but do you think you're getting respect from the one that matters? Can you justify your lifestyle in front of your creator?....

actin like those who have no respect to make people laugh is ok? sometimes it involves lyin an lyin to make people laugh is veeery sinful?
serious guys, the beautiful sunnah, the beautiful sunnah is acting gracious and modest and noble, our prophet subhanAllah he would always smile and he was nice to joke with and stuff lol everyone loved him and he was faaar from gangster.
may Allah grant us the understanding

I understand what you are saying, all of these gangstars are fake and only deceiving theirselves. Its really amazing given the fact that 2pac got shot people really want to follow in his footsteps, its absurd! The boys (really grown men some aged around 29) hang outside my house are nothing more than school bullies who gained a driving liencse and somehow think they are invincable. I leave this with the words of a Rappa called Gangstarr (Guru & Dj Premeir) "Like they say every dog has his day and like they say God works in a mysterious way" - From the track Moment of Truth.

A person with personal hatred in the heart will argue, however the one who questions his sincerity will reason.

Wa Aleykum Salam,
Tupac is also a muscion, role model and 'hero' for many young people, not just black, but all over the world, he has sold many records and yada yada yada, you know who he is and so forth, so maybe people are not trying to follow 2pac because he got shot, I dont think even Tupac wanted to be shot, but they follow him because of the other features, we can go on and talk about many features which he spoke of and how they are positive.
People don't follow a person because of the bad, they follow him/her for the good.
Eesa
The path is long but I hope we meet,
After the grave and the Day, in paradise in bliss upon a reclined seat.
A traveler traveling - travelled from shirk to tawheed,
If I'm remembered for anything - let it be the Mercy I seek.
