I thought I'd share something my Quran teacher (May Allah reward him) said, which was just awesome.
A friend [I'm gonna call him Hussain] was sitting with my teacher after salah in the mosque, so after a while Hussain's cousin came to greet the Sheikh as well, and suggested that Hussain should get married.
He replied: He should marry the Quran first, once it is in his heart then he can get married.
I found that so awesome, I don't think I'd be able to forget that...SubhanAllah!

Fifty-nine percent of the Usage Panel rejects the use of enormity as a synonym for immensity in the sentence 'At that point the engineers sat down to design an entirely new viaduct, apparently undaunted by the enormity of their task.' This distinction between enormity and enormousness has not always existed historically, but nowadays many observe it. Writers who ignore the distinction, as in the enormity of the President's election victory or the enormity of her inheritance, may find that their words have cast unintended aspersions or evoked unexpected laughter.
"O Muslims! If anyone among you worshipped Ramadan, then know that Ramadan is dead. But those of you who worshipped Allah, then know that Allah lives and will never die. Indeed Allah created Ramadan and He also, in truth, created Shawaal, Dhul Qidah, Dhul Hijjah, and all the rest of the Months..."
