November 01, 2023, 03:44:32 pm Zainab_M: Allahhuma ameen .. ameen.
November 01, 2023, 03:43:43 pm Ruhi_Rose: Yes .. making lots of dua everyday ..... watching those real life video clips, my face feels wet with tears all the time.  May ALLAH grant the best to these wonderful, brave & steadfast martyrs,  Ameen ya Allah.
November 01, 2023, 03:38:26 pm Zainab_M: Keep praying, praying a lot for Gaza. It's worse than a prison .. it's a concentration camp.  Children as young as 10 or 11 are having to care for their younger siblings ages 2, 3 and 4 becoz many have lost both parents.  It's a very, very, very tearful situation there.
October 26, 2023, 03:40:19 pm N. Truth Seeker: Don't forget to look up MV Blog Zainab's Lounge for our Gaza updates.
October 20, 2023, 04:24:44 pm Zainab_M: Right sister Heba.  Gaza hospital bombing has the fingerprints of Israel all over it.  For Israel this is no big crime.  They have done this and much worse many times in the past and intend to do the same and worse many more times in near future.
October 20, 2023, 04:20:20 pm Heba E. Husseyn: Catching Zionist lies isn't hard. Soon after Gaza hospital bombing killing and maiming hundreds, Israel was quick to accuse Islamic Jihad of a misfired rocket.  That didn't sound plausible because IJ does not have such sophisticated bombing devices.  Zionist lie was fully exposed when anglican archbishop of Jerusalem,Hosam Naoum,  said today that 3 or 4 days prior to boming Israel had warned Gaza hospital to evacuate. Yet CIA claims in its flawed analysis that the rocket did not come from Israel.  But conveniently does not explain how Israel could have known 4 days earlier that a "misfired" rocket from IJ was coming.  Yet on the basis of this flawed & bias analysis of CIA, Biden is comforting Israel he believes Israel didn't do that war crimes bombing.
July 29, 2023, 03:02:07 am Zainab_M: Yesterday was Ashura, Muharram 10, 1444 (July 27, 2023).  Read about this very tragic day and details of the world's greatest 7th century revolutionary: WHO WAS HUSSEIN.
June 28, 2023, 09:48:39 am Zainab_M: Walaikum As Salaam.  This was the first Hajj open to all after the pandemic. It was attended by 2.6 million Muslims.

Btw, sister Zeynab, what does "ship burials" mean?



Salaam brother TS.   My profuse apology for missing out on this query you stated long time ago.   

Actually I don't know too many details except that "ship burial" was a pagan custom.    It's also called "boat grave."   A small ship or boat was viewed as the grave.  The cremated body was placed in it along with earthly commodities like clothing, armor, sword, spears, shoes, wigs, spoons, plates, kitchen utensils etc.,  and then the ship or boat was buried.  The idea was much like the Egyptian pyramids where the dead were put inside these huge stone structures with similar earthly belongings.  In all such practices, remains of the rich were accompanied with greater earthly splendor compared to the less wealthy ones.  Some reports say ship burials were only for kings, aristocrats and famous warriors.

Whatever may have been the differing details of different social segments receiving ship burials, it was all bizarre, stupid and nonsensical.  Stupidity was immense.  As of all pagan communities, these European pagans were fixated on cremation of the dead, never burial.   According to these very ignorant folks, burial meant the body being consumed by worms and insects and thus involving a slow process of mixing with dust.  They thought that since cremation turns the body into ashes in a short time, the deceased would go to Paradise quicker.  As in altered Christianity even today, they presume everyone - righteous or unrighteous - will go to Paradise after death.  For the comfort of their own hearts they are on denial by ignoring the reality of Hell to avoid guilt while leading a life full of transgressions.  In fact presently, the practice of cremation (by putting the body in incinerators) has returned in Europe and North America within the Caucasian community;  of course nowadays it's more about saving money as cremation is cheaper than burial within their social system.  The secular Caucasians opt for cremation while the orthodox wealthier Christians may prefer burial.  But cremation is more common.

Many buried ships with all sorts of items have been discovered by modern archaeologists in different parts of Europe which are presumed to be between 1,000 and 1,500 years old.

Ship burial was common among ancient Europeans - Anglo Saxons, Vikings, Barbarians etc. - in the dark ages.   This does not necessarily refer to pre-Christian era.   It should be known that after the first century when Christianity gradually spread across Europe, it was not retained for long.  Several patches of European communities relapsed into paganism.  England officially embraced Christianity as late as early 8th century yet many pagan customs were still rife.   It's also presumed that ancient people of the Philippines followed this custom of ship burial.  It's likely that these people learned it from the early Europeans colonizers who came to the Philippines and forcibly converted the locals into Christianity, but with pagan practices.

No problem at all sister.  I also forgot to remind.

Thanks for the info.  Sounds like a real eerie, bad custom.  What surprises me is that it continued in Europe for so long even after they were officially supposed to be "christians."  Rather than following the Monotheistic teachings of Essa son of virgin Maryam, they twisted & altered his teachings to fit into the pagan European culture.   That approach hasn't changed much until now.
