Br Jalal, masha'Allah he's brill and he's in London. We need something like this in the whole of the UK. Maybe something next Eid. Bi'idhnillah. I'm not a roller coaster junkie I admit, kinda got over that a few years ago... I can no longer compete with my cousins, rather do it in something better... and no more acting like I'm not scared of them.. lol. Though I know some sisters that love them, alHamdulillah It just would be sooo cool to get all the muslims together. Ahhhh on Friday, A KHUTBAH!!! Maybe get a few of the Uk Shuyook down. A COOL topic. That would be soo awesomely cool. lol... I've started dreaming. Alhamdulillah. You people in the US are blessed and may Allah SWT continously bless you. Aameen. The tests only strengthen us... IMuslim: There should be something like this on Eid, I think the organisers of the Muslim Alton Towers day should try again, insha’Allah ta’ala we can make it better.

May Allah reward the organizers and volunteers for giving us such a wonderful day. Also, the second largest population after kids were pregnant women, Masha Allah. I was amazed at the number of potruding bellies. I am sure there will be so many tiny toes next year at eid,Insha Allah. May Allah spare our lives. But I dont recall seeing any pregnant woman on any of the rides.LOL. Good thing they stayed away!

We spent around 1 hour with her, as she shared the story of herself accepting Islam and other "grand ma stories".

InshAllah next year we should coordinate and have a firm Al-Maghrib contingent to ride-hop amongst the big-boy coasters (shuyookh included!). Hope you and your fam had a great Eid :) Amad-

I didn't notice it on Wednesday but caught it on Thursday at Maghrib time. Maybe it was only audible in certain portions of the park.
