Is talking to your girl after engagement allowed. ( it is difficult but May Allah Help us.)

At the outset, we wish to point out that the western concept of engagement has no basis in Islam. That is the way of the Kuffaar. Rasulullah [Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam] said, ‘Whosoever imitates a nation is from among them.’

At most, an engagement is only a promise to marry. It should not be a celebration of a mini marriage as is the norm. Once a boy and girl is proposed to marry, they are still Ghayr Mahram unto one another. Ghayr Mahrams are those people that are not prohibited unto one another in marriage. It is compulsory to maintain the laws of Hijaab for Ghayr Mahrams. It is, therefore, prohibited for you to communicate with your future to be. The reason of getting to know one another has no basis. If there was any merit in that, then such marriages ought to be always successful and prosperous as the decision to marry has been on sound basis.

It is a normal practise in the western world to court before marriage, yet the divorce rate among them is extremely high. In the US, the divorce rate is 4 out of 5. The Darul Ifta has observed and handled many such marital disputes wherein the couples knew one another before marriage for a long time. The relationship suddenly sours after the marriage. In many cases, the spouses have stated that the attitude before marriage was different and changed only after marriage. Surely that synthetic positive approach was just to achieve one’s motive. It is also important to examine this issue from another angle. Everything has its full strength and limits. In such a premarital relationship, couples exhaust much of their natural resources of love and do not have much left when the actual time comes to express that. After marriage, love is an old boring affair and there is not much hope for building a loving marriage. Alhamdulillah, in Islam, individuals have the full resources of love and express it at the appropriate time, thus building a solid foundation of love. The concept of keeping contact with each other before marriage to know one another is incorrect and un-Islamic. There are many couples that have been dumped and abused by the ‘faithful’ partners.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best

Why Should I Wear The Hijaab ?
---------------------------
This is a good question and there is a beautiful answer! Allaah has commanded us with every action that is good for us and prohibited us from performing every action that is bad for us. Allaah orders the Muslim woman to wear the hijaab when she steps out of the security of her home or when in the presence of strange men. So to wear the hijaab is a source of great good for you - the Muslim woman - for many reasons. Among them:

1. You please Allaah. You are obeying the commands of your Lord when you wear the hijaab and you can expect great rewards in return.

2. It is Allaah's protection of your natural beauty. You are too precious to be "on display" for each man to see.

3. It is Allaah's preservation of your chastity.

4. Allaah purifies your heart and mind through the hijaab.

5. Allaah beautifies your inner and outer countenance with hijaab. Outwardly your hijaab reflects innocence, purity, modesty, shyness, serenity, contentment and obedience to your Lord. Inwardly you cultivate the same.

6. Allaah defines your femininity through the hijaab. You are a woman who respects her womanhood. Allaah wants you to be respected by others, and for you to respect yourself.

7. Allaah raises your dignity through the hijaab. When a strange man looks at you, he respects you because he sees that you respect yourself.

8. Allaah protects your honour 100% through your hijaab. Men do not gaze at you in a sensual way, they do not approach you in a sensual way, and neither do they speak to you in a sensual way. Rather, a man holds you in high esteem and that is just by one glance at you!

9. Allaah gives you nobility through the hijaab. You are noble not degraded because you covered not naked.

10. Allaah demonstrates your equality as a Muslim woman through the hijaab. Your Lord bestows upon you equal worth as your male counterpart, and gives you a host of beautiful rights and liberties. You express your acceptance of these unique rights by putting on the hijaab.

11. Allaah defines your role as a Muslim woman through the hijaab. You are a someone with important duties. You are a reflection of a woman of action not idle pursuits. You display your sense of direction and purpose through your hijaab. You are someone that people take seriously.

12. Allaah expresses your independence through the hijaab. You are stating clearly that you are an obedient servant of the Greatest Master. You will obey no one else and follow no other way. You are not a slave to any man, nor a slave to any nation. You are free and independent from all man-made systems.

13. Allaah gives you the freedom of movement and expression through the hijaab. You are able to move about and communicate without fear of harassment. Your hijaab gives you a unique confidence.

14. Allaah wants others to treat you - a Muslim woman - with kindness. And the hijaab brings about the best treatment of men towards you.

15. Allaah wants your beauty to be preserved and saved for just one man to enjoy - your husband.

16. Allaah helps you to enjoy a successful marriage through wearing hijaab. Because you reserve your beauty for one man alone, your husband's love for you increases, he cherishes you more, he respects you more and he honours you more. So your hijaab contributes to a successful and lasting marriage relationship.

17. Allaah brings about peace and stability in the society through the hijaab! Yes this is true! Men do not cause corruption by forming illegal relationships because you - the Muslim woman - calm their passions. When a man looks at you, he feels at ease, not tempted to fornicate.

So a Muslim woman in hijaab is dignified, not dishonoured, noble, not degraded, liberated, not subjugated, purified, not sullied, independent, not a slave, protected, not exposed, respected, not laughed at, confident, not insecure, obedient, not a sinner, a guarded pearl, not a prostitute.

Dear Muslim sister! Come towards the gates of Paradise with us! Fulfill your duties towards Allaah, put on your adornment - put on your hijaab, and race towards Jannah (Paradise) by doing all good actions. You should agree by now that wearing hijaab is extremely beneficial - it must be - because Allaah only commands what is good. and believe me dear sister, it is good to obey the commands of your Lord.

"Their reward is with their Lord: Gardens of Eden underneath which rivers flow wherein they will dwell for ever; Allaah is pleased with them, and they are pleased with Him; this is (in store) for whoever fears his Lord." [Sooratul-Bayyinah 98:8]

Good Times for Pakistan

"These are the good times for Pakistan," said the Cathay Pacific manager in Los Angeles, who is originally from Karachi. Decades of neglect are being compensated (and in some cases overcompensated) by the government of President Pervez Musharraf. Investment is pouring in from countries in the Persian Gulf, from India, and especially from China.

Large Value Capacitors

I really amazed when I was working on the BOM(Bill of Materials) of our new product. I saw some suppliers(Digikey, Mouser) offering capacitors of value more than 1 Farad. Yes its more than 1 Farad.This large value is generally used as a battery for Real Time Clock chips etc.
Before that I thought Farad is very big value and one can not have a capacitor of 1 Farad. So if any one ask u that if there any capcitor possible of one Farad say YES !BTW u can take a look at
http://www.digi-key.com/ (U'll have to search for). Not expensive though about $2 and yes size is also very small like a coin battery on your mother boards.

The Rediff Interview/Jehan Ara, President, PASHA:

red:Could tell us about the business deals that the Pakistani companies have signed deals with Indian companies?

ja:An IT company, Emmaculate Solutions, has signed a deal with i-flex solutions to sell i-flex products in Pakistan.

Another company, Delhi-based company Compare has signed a contract with Creative Chaos to set up 6 Web portals on Pakistan's tourism sector. The content will be developed by the Pakistani company while the technology will be facilitated by the Indian company. The first portal was launched on February 9.

A company called Yevolve will be signing an MoU with an Indian transportation company to sell their e-ticketing solution.

Another company Arwen Tech, in the BPO (business process outsourcing) sector, will be entering into an agreement with Hewitt India to expand services in Pakistan in the call centre business.

SI3 is in talks with ICICI Infotech. In the financial and call centre business, there are lot of activities taking place as Pakistan is keen to expand its call centre business.

Bauhat Dinoon Kii Baat Hay

Bauhat Dinoon Kii Baat Hay
Fazaa Koo Yaad Bhii Nahien

Yeh Baat Aaaj Kii Nahien
Bauhat Dinoon Kii Baat Hay

Shabab Pur Bahaar Thii
Fazaa Bhii Khush Gawar Thii

Kissii Nain Mujh Koo Rook Kar
Badi Adaa Seh Took Ker

Kahaa Thaa Laut Aaa Iyay
Meri Kasam Naan Jaa Iyay

Aaaj Phir Wohi Shaam Hay
Keh Bahar Jiss Kaa Naam Hay

Naan Janay Main Kiyoon Machal Pada
Main Chal Pada Salam KOo

Fazaa Kaa Rang Daikh Kar

Mujhay Badi Khushi Hoi
Main Kuch Issi Khushi Main Thaa

Kissi Nain Rook Kar Kaha
Meri Qasam Naan Aaa Iyay

Para aiy Ghar Seh Jaa Iyay
Tab Mujhay Khabar Naan Thi

Mahool Peh Nazar Naan Thii
Keh Wooh Jou Mujh Seh Door Thi

Magar Meri Zaroor Thi
Magar Meri Zaroor Thi

Aab Koi Nahien Jou Rook Kar
Koi Nahien Jou Took Kar

Kahay Keh Loot Aaa Iyay
Meriii Qasam Naan Jaa Iyay.

Naan Kissi Kii Aankh Kaa Noor Hoon

Naan Kissi Kii Aankh Kaa Noor Hoon
Naan Kissi Keh Dill Kaa Qaraar HOoon
Joo Kissi Keh Kaam Naan Aaa Sakaa
Main Wooh Aik Mushk-e Ghubar Hoon

Hanstii Aaankhain Khiltay Chehray
Sabb Aik Bahanaan Hay
Intizaar Main Sach Much Noor Kahaan
Intizaar Tou Khud Aik Weeranaan Hay.
