[snooty accent start] Yeeeeeaaas, I simply hopped on a plane and winged my way to delightful Toronto to attend a private gala event this weekend. MUCH better than that oh-so-common Toronto International Film Festival that's going on there. [snooty accent end]

Ok, ok, all joking aside, I had a BLAST this weekend! I guess it was a combination of being back in my home town with all my friends there. It was sad to leave. I took oodles of photos (that have been posted ;).

"Brothers and Sisters, I must ask everyone to help us with a problem that has happened here at this Mosque. I was looking through the Mosque fridge the other day when I found something that does not belong here. Now I have left the offending food item there so that others may go and see this Haraam item. Someone ... brothers and sisters ... has placed Haraam Hot Dogs in our beloved Mosque fridge. Now I am not here to discuss what is and is not Haraam/Halal my brothers and sisters. But, please, do not bring Haraam food to the Mosque!"*

"They will be so great ... that women who are pregnant ... will abort the child right [then and] there and run!"*

*Please note, quote is not exact; I can't be expected to remember the speech word for word :P

"They will be so great ... that women who are breast feeding their babies will drop the baby and run!"*

*Please note, quote is not exact; I can't be expected to remember the speech word for word :P

Ok, so I've decided to add a new section to my site, it will contain memorable quotes from Jummah Prayer Khutbahs that I've attended. I'm also adding a voting system so people can pick their favorite Khutbah quotes ;)

Enjoy!
