Assalaamu 'alaykum!

Therefore please note that all links, content, information etc. other than that of the Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaa'ah will be removed.

Being an Islamic Forum we adhere to the laws of Allah subhaanhanu wata'ala. Being behind a screen of anonymity does not mean these laws may be discarded.

2. Please maintain modesty when addressing the opposite gender on the Forum. We aim to keep the forum free of any form of intermingling between genders. No light banter, no exchange of email addresses or personal information will be allowed. Make posts to the point and platonic. Any comments contrary to modesty will be deleted.
