Way to go Freddie
Flintoff turned out to be the magician for England in the second test against Australia. What a way to exit from test cricket. That's the way I think legends leaves a mark.
The Hijab - Why so fuss over it
It is the latest table topic everywhere even at international level. It was Sarkozy who has let the whistle blow by saying it as backwardness of muslim women to wear hijab. This French President, described in a recent book (failed to be blocked from publication — so much for free speech!) as an uncaring father and a womanizer wants to now tell Muslim women how to dress.And another recent controversy was the death of Muslim lady in germany.
Marwa al-Sherbini stabbed to death in a German court was an Egyptian who had sued her attacker after he insulted her for wearing the Islamic headscarf. These are the countries saying they are tolerant and I am asking tolerant to what?
Why are they so against hijab when the muslim ladies are feeling comfortable and doing it for sake of Allah. Even mother of Jesus (one of the best women) was cladded in a dress similar to hijab, what about the ladies in picture with Krishna dont they have their head covered and dressed in modesty. If you ask yourself why are you wearing a dress? The most probable
answer could be "its out of modesty" so why cant we consider the hijab as way of expressing modesty by muslim women.
Hijab is NOT a sign of the subjection of women because of the follwoing:
1. Muslim women adopt Hijab out of their faith that it is commanded by Allah Almighty.
2. If a woman is FORCED to wear hijab, then it becomes a sign of oppression. But as matters of religion in Islam must be adopted out of conviction and not out of compulsion, hijab can never be a sign of subjection of women.
It is even forbidden to force a person to believe in Islam by bribing or intimidating him.
3. Hijab is meant to make women depend on their identity as humans equal to men and not as a means of oppression.
4. Hijab is a sign of the decency and dignity of women.
And finally the way I see is a women wearing a Hijab is protected and makes them worthy of more respect and women who needs attentions and want to play mind games does the other way.

Only matter of time...
only matter of time you find all the pieces of puzzles
its only matter of time you will find the good from the bad
