Another week passes by...

All,

Its been a pretty hectic week for me since my last post, well I started a new Islamic study circle on Tuesday nights at my house, which had its first speaker on tuesday and i hope inshallah (God willing) that it will continue and not fade out like so many other things i start much to my own fault as well as the people who are part of the group or event...well heres hoping.

I been also planning my holidays this summer, now that my life has been forced to take a profound meaning and way, at present im in the search of that new way, however i have come up with some possible solutions or things that i would like to do with my life, one of which is to complete an MBA, visit Al-Aqsa and pray a friday prayer there, drive from Doha to London, and thats jus some of the intital targets I have had or ways to find some fullfillment in my life, i know there is no real fullfillement in life without love, and that Love is found for me with God, the Prophets and my family. I have the first two not to the extent i would like but i do, but i dont have the third, which may surprise some, but i dont mean my parents and sister but i mean my own family where im the head of the family however i have no idea when i will reach this target or part of my life...

Talking of love, and relationships, well I know in my relgion it states its wrong to go out with a girl/guy of even socialise with the opposite sex in a playful way, i understand the reasoning behind this and its a preventative measure to ensure that illicit relations to not start and therefore sex before marriage does not occur, however its not so black and white and relationships are very difficult, I was listening to an Islamic CD where it was stating how because of complexities in our society and traditions means that getting a marriage is a lot harder than it used to be and so people are bound to go into relationships because of the situation which doesnt make it right but at least there is reasoning behind it...I will elaborate more soon on this topic especially as its so close to my heart...

Take care
