I've had all my weapons confiscated by the police... long story short, i was coming back from MA practice, and they did a stop and search and found my chakus... next thing I know, I'm being asked to prove that I was in a class. I couldn't, since the place had closed for the night and I never take my mobile to class. Lost it once there already. Anyway, I gets myself arrested, charged for possession of an offensive weapon. And then given a court date for 6 months time... a week passes and I get a knock on my door. Police have a warrant to search the premises. So they search, find and confiscate... but they can't charge me, because I claim that they hold souvenir value ;D

I got a fine and a record. Ridiculous.

Nice knife though, makes me wanna go fishing :)

Unlucky you. I live in California, strict gun control but none for knives or swords. I walked out a sword as a minor and bought a knife and combat boots and nobody could do anything about it. Its also legal to carry a knife as long as its not concealed also and the police were very dumb also and judging by certain state laws you could sue.
 
Endymion is one of the master pieces of Keats.Im in love with this poem and every time i read it,i enjoy the beauty more than before.

Wa alaykum salam wrwb to those who greeted. MashaAllah you all have very interesting stories behind your username.

And bro scimitar good work on implanting your logo on the sword lol, the lighting looks right :)

That's a nice knife you got bro shads what do you use it for? Do you bring it hunting? Eversince a classmate accidentally cut my hand with a penknife I don't play with sharp objects.

It's just a wall decoration honestly lol. And i use it to cut boxes open for packages and its a nice mail opener. But i will say this about hunting.
Ernest Hemingway - "Certainly there is no hunting like the hunting of man, and those who have hunted armed men long enough and like it, never really care for anything else thereafter."
all i can say to that is its "Sad but true" - James Hetfield :p
I am very poetic and a strong philosopher.

Wait .. That's one of Allah's names bro (As-Samii'u). I don't think it's permissible. I would change it.

There is no need to go to such extremes.

One of Allah's names is 'Al-Ali'

العل The Highest Al-Ali

And as we know Hazrat Ali (May Allah be pleased with him) was the name of our Nabi's (Peace be upon him) son in law and companion. There really is nothing wrong with my username.
 
Scimitar: I love your artwork and how you put your logo onto the blade, which really is a cool looking blade. I always have been fascinated by swords and daggers of all sorts, not that I am any expert. One of the many things I have been wanting to learn is how to fight with a sword. Never had the time though. That and when I do have the time, I don't have the money or there just isn't any classes being offered, other than joining something like S.C.A (Society of Creative Anarchism I think it means).

As for owning/keeping weapons, the restrictions in Canada are tight. I think you need something like 3 different papers to have a gun (owning a gun permit, certificate for completing a weapons safety course I believe and a gun license (or maybe its a hunting license? OR both, can't remember)) For bladed weapons, I believe it has to have under a 5" blade and anything longer has to be dulled or designed so you can't add an edge to it. These would be your typical display swords etc. And there are other laws about martial art type weapons too but I can't remember. Needless to say, I just don't bother buying weapons..to much red tape. I do own a long bow however...just no hunting type arrows other than target arrows (not that these cant' kill if i fire it at somebody, the bow is pretty powerful, far more than the kid ones in school for archery class. The guys in my class were impressed I Had no problem drawing the strongest bow there...a measly 25 pound. Mine is 50.)

Anyway, why I choose my nick:

Long story really...since I had it for over a decade. Basically I used to go by DragonQueen..but too many people started using that and I hate having numbers after it. Also most people in chat rooms kept calling me DQ for short (made sense) then new people thought it stood for Dairy Queen (a chain store for ice cream and burgers and other basic fast foods up here in Canada, not sure if the US has them). So, I decided to just switch to dqsunday. Which was nicely unique. That and I am a sweet person ;) At least when I am not being 'nutty'
 
My birth name is "Paula". Over twenty years ago, when my kids were lots younger, they would always have their friends over. The little kids would always say that I was always so happy and sunny. So they started calling me that, so that is where "Sunnie" came from. Then last year I converted and wanted to add an Arabic name to it, so I found "Ameena". I am sure everyone knows that it means trustworthy and faithful, and I consider myself to be trustworthy and faithful, but it is also a pretty word to say. So that is how I got "Sunnie Ameena". I know it is a boring story, but wanted to share. Sunnie Ameena
 
:salamext:

It's not boring at all!!!

You're meant to be positive, not negative Sister Sunnie Ameena!!! LOL (I like the spelling of it) & I'm glad you shared, you definitely have a sunny nature if children decided to call you that!!!

You're funny ;D

:salamext:
 
Asalamu Alaikum
dqsunday, there are Dairy Queens here, but I have to tell you, that they have commercials that advertise D Q Sundaes.

I addition to what Vision said,Allah SWT is Awwal and Aakhir and Muhammad SAW also has these two names but the difference between the two is "Al".Allah SWT is Al-Awwal and Al-Aakhir while Muhammad SAW is just Awwal and Aakhir.
In my knowledge,its necessary to add Abd with two names of Allah SWT.Allah and Rehman and you can use rest without using Abd and its ok :statisfie

Yes, I do realize the spelling of the dessert is sundaes LOL but I never ever claimed to have good spelling. I just became so used to using dqsunday with the incorrect spelling I kept it that way. That and I hate English, far as I am concerned it is NOT a phonetic language, I don't care what 'Hooked on Phonics' claims. Which always reminds me of a story my dad told me, I can't remember if it was a story his student told him, a coworker or happened in his class (he use to teach high school):

The teacher had asked his students how to spell canoe and out of all the students who raised their hands, the one he picked was asked to write it on the board. The student wasn't the brightest student so carefully enunciated the word as he was taught, while he wrote it on the board. Stepping back, everybody could see he spelled canoe just the way it sounds... KNEW.

Now you know why I am not a big fan of how English works LOL

just tell me the meaning of "Marwen"

I am curious too, at first I thought it was named after a character from Lord Of The Rings like Eowyn or Arwen but it is a brother and those are female characters so I don't think this is the case.
