One suggestion: can we have less of Amad please? The lesser, the better.

Is there any way of searching for articles with any key words other than the themes provided in categories.
The current search engine only seems to offer searches undereither the set categories or under the writers’ names?
Oh, and Eed Mubarak everyone, taqabbAllahu minna wa minkum salihal a’amal…
Amad
December 19, 2007 at 12:06 PM
salam.. anonymoous… if u look on the top right, just under BROWSE and under monthly archives, there is a place for Search… clear the “Search” word and type in any key words and press the black button on its right with “>” symbol…
MR: definitely the theme is on the chopping block… soon inshalah… hopefully we’ll never need to find out what that place WAS.

I’d also like to extend eid greetings to all from me and my family!
I had the distinct pleasure today of hearing Sh. Yasir Qadhi’s khutbah here in Houston. I didn’t know he was here already and it was a wonderful surprise!

For Eid fitr story about giving out rice locally, there where lots of comments about how different orgs are managing that…
Can this blog or user share how different Muslims manage the distribution of Qurbani meat?
