The only redeeming quality of this whole affair - Is that I am now able to remove the rather suggestive banner from my signature.

ermm i dont know if what i said was true or not but yes i take my words back..

knowing youcef i know he took this the right way sis dont worry no harm done.. and youcef is right... theres a long line of very capable brothers masha allah. AND sisters.. .at this forum.

One thing we should all take away is the fact that we engaged in something for the sake of allah and had a bit of fun - thats worth being happy about w'alhamdulillah!

Why are you always so negative sister? It was a joyful affair, at least smile a little and be a bit happy about it.

Agreed lets all always be positive, but im sure the sister was making a sarcastic remark. All khayr insha Allah!

It would certainly be a trying affair to even 'attempt' to find a redeeming and congratulative quality to the whole unorganised and disastrous business - The whole thing could certainly do with some better organization -

To suggest a couple -
Next time there ought to be a set category for everyone to work to, rather than simply using 'Islam' (It was unlikely to be Christianity or Judaism) - For instance 'The Hereafter' or 'The Companions Of The Prophet' - It means that those people who know less and are at a disadvantage have at least a small chance for preparation and a better chance of winning.

I also think that each team should include at least three people, rather than two.

That when the respective questions have been asked - The correct answers to each question should be given - And points gained should be clarified at the end of each round.

And also: For those people with a bad reception, Questions asked should be put through the speaker and typed - As what is being said is not always clear.

And just to clarify - I said the competition was badly organized, I didn't however say that I didn't enjoy myself, quite the contrary actually.

I have a wry sense of humour - I am the human equivalent of Marmite - You either Love me, or you Hate me.

(Fazza: Sarcasm? I was being 'Dead' serious - Congratulations, we are in awe of your brilliance - The best Girl won)

^ i agree with all the suggestions. , esp the last point, as i also couldnt hear many of the questions so it was very confusing.

Staghfirullah.

Perhaps sister wafa is right, and its only you in your pessimism who had trouble finding redeeming qualities. The business was not disastrous nor unorganised - a few things didnt go to plan becuase of technical issues which are frankly beyond ANYONE'S control, and certainly no one else seems to have as big an issue with them as you did/do. Things can always do with better organisation, but this was well organised and Alhamdulillah the admins did a FANTASTIC job and there wasnt one person who came out if (even you did by your own admission) without having liked it (though everyone else evidently liked it a lot more than your good self) and said despite the glitches it was well worth the time.

So the affair is trying only for those who have a begrudging attitude. No one else has complained.

The last comment is unnecessary.

Well....i dnt wanna congratulate exclusively to the winners of this competition out here, bcoz i believe the essence of this competition was to gain knowledge only for the sake of Allah {swt} and get its benefits in both the worlds.

So for me....everyone is the winner , and i take this oppurtunity to congratulate every single bro / sis who participated. For contests like this, participating itself is winning


Walaikum Assalaam Wa Rahmatullah
