As salam alykom dear members
I sincerely apologize for what happened from the member who chose to him/herself an obscene nickname that actually hurt our feelings. I really don’t know why some people insist to introduce themselves as followers of a religion that allows them to be obscene. Islam, our religion, encourages us to adopt kind and good moral and mannerism while dealing with others in addition to trusting others. When we launched this forum, we sat the membership in a way that allows registration without control. However, such behavior from people made us compelled to set the registration in a way that enforces some control.
I apologize to all my dear brothers and sisters. Such procedure will delay the activation of new members while shall put extra burden on the mods. But we have no other way with members who are not up to the trust like this one.
I appreciate the concern of sisterJennifer and Muslimah and Radiyah for their concern and all other members who took the trouble to see into this matter.
As for the member, he/she is banned. As for the threat to close down the forum there is a saying in Arabic that says. He may choose the tallest among his horses to rid. In other words he can hit the ceiling if he can

Islam you can't apoligise for the ignorance of others. This forum is the best forum i've ever been too, it'd take more than a few brain deads to drive me and the others away. I support the full registration by email idea as well, very good idea. Especially if it's the kind of registration where the new member has to be approved. I know it's longer but those who really want to post here won't mind. They'll discover it's worth it. And the rest of the non belivers, would have moved on to another forum to play the "lets display our intellignece" game.

Assalamu aleikum,
Surley I agree, people behave very differently, and we all have to take responsibility for our own one. Hopefully we will not fall into such deep ditches that some do. May Allah, SWT help us from doing that, insha'Allah.
The rules will suite the one that wants to enter this forum and participate and learn and contribute. No doubt about it.
Salam PII,
Truly you missed nothing, you been spared something!
So please continue to contribute with your posts.
Wasalam

as salam alykom
I agree with Intuition PIi must be posted about the incident.
PII someone allowed him/herself to register to the forum with an obsene nick that is first the nick actually abuses Islam. Second made about 3 posts full of threats. Now did u ever see a Muslim doing this in a non Muslim forum? of course not. u know why? we dont need to go around threatening or insulting others.
Whatever religion he/she belongs to, what kind on an impression he/she left on us Muslims? I leave it here.

Wa'Alaikum Assalaam
May Allah bless those who blocked such a person from this site!
Such actions are not befitting a muslim as muslims are those who have the truth and have nothing to hide. The root word of kuf'r is kafara which means to conceal or hide.
A sincere muslim would never go on a chat room pretending to be a non-muslim and attack/threaten other religions. Only those who are cowards and have fallen under the spell of shaitaan indulge in such acts as the shaitaan is well rehearsed in not showing his intentions and true face. And from amongst men are shaitaan!
<b>The People of Truth and the People of Misguidance are not Equal</b>
[أَفَمَن شَرَحَ اللَّهُ صَدْرَهُ لِلإِسْلَـمِ فَهُوَ عَلَى نُورٍ مِّن رَّبِّهِ]
(Is he whose breast Allah has opened to Islam, so that he is in light from his Lord) means, is this person equal to the one who is hard-hearted and far from the truth This is like the Ayah:
[أَوَمَن كَانَ مَيْتًا فَأَحْيَيْنَـهُ وَجَعَلْنَا لَهُ نُورًا يَمْشِي بِهِ فِى النَّاسِ كَمَن مَّثَلُهُ فِي الظُّلُمَـتِ لَيْسَ بِخَارِجٍ مِّنْهَا كَذَلِكَ]
(Is he who was dead and We gave him life and set for him a light (i.e. Belief) whereby he can walk amongst men -- like him who is in the darkness (i.e., disbelief) from which he can never come out) (6:122) Allah says:
[فَوَيْلٌ لِّلْقَـسِيَةِ قُلُوبُهُمْ مِّن ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ]
(So, woe to those whose hearts are hardened against remembrance of Allah!) meaning, they do not become soft when Allah is mentioned, and they do not feel humility or fear, and they do not understand.
[أُوْلَـئِكَ فِى ضَلَـلٍ مُّبِينٍ]
(They are in plain error!).
[اللَّهُ نَزَّلَ أَحْسَنَ الْحَدِيثِ كِتَـباً مُّتَشَـبِهاً مَّثَانِيَ تَقْشَعِرُّ مِنْهُ جُلُودُ الَّذِينَ يَخْشَوْنَ رَبَّهُمْ ثُمَّ تَلِينُ جُلُودُهُمْ وَقُلُوبُهُمْ إِلَى ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ ذَلِكَ هُدَى اللَّهِ يَهْدِى بِهِ مَن يَشَآءُ وَمَن يُضْلِلِ اللَّهُ فَمَا لَهُ مِنْ هَادٍ ]
(23. Allah has sent down the Best Statement, a Book, its parts resembling each other, (and) oft-repeated. The skins of those who fear their Lord shiver from it. Then their skin and their heart soften to the remembrance of Allah. That is the guidance of Allah. He guides therewith whom He wills; and whomever Allah sends astray, for him there is no guide.)
