haha...well said.

now that I have spent a considerable time with Java, I think the popularity for .Net framework is growing fast. Not planning to make a switch or anything, but what do you guys think.....

I think Java will hang around for quite a while, however, in the long run, .Net might just make life easier.

IMO (and from personal experience), to really learn programming in general, one would want to start with languages such as C/C++ and then move on to Java or some other high level language, as that would give him/her a better understanding of concepts like memory management, garbage collection and a low level view of things where you have to build every damn thing on your own.

No tattoos. Anyone here have piercings?

ammark · #61 August 13, 2007, 06:26 PM

okay hang on. Prohibited in Islam? someone quote me some divine phrases or narrate me some hadith.

my personal reason for not taking on tattoos is the same for not getting piercings. I personally dont find them to be appealing to me. But using religion to explain it?? ...I want to be sure on this.

I read about it when I was in school that "ulki is absolutely haram in Islam" and when I did a google search "tattoos in islam" I found few related Hadith but not sure about the authentication. Anyone interested to shed some light here? I really want to know. Thanks in advance.

I don't have a tattoo, and I don't like those heavily tattoed individuals either. I do like small tattoos, ones that're more meaningful. But when it comes to the point of having some permanent mark on my body, I find that unacceptable (personally). Everyone else is welcome to get it.

Ammark raises a good question though. I've always heard of tattoos being haram...but never really asked where it's written. Is it haram or what? However, as far as I know, tattoos and plastic surgery are considered haram because it says in the holy Quran that we can't permanently change our physical beauties or tamper with the beauty that God gave us. Having said all that, I don't understand Arabic, and can't tell if it really says that in the holy Quran.

I agree with Asif. C/C++ is the best way to enter in the programming world if someone really wants to take it seriously. Expert C/C++ programmers can switch easily to any other platform with minimum effort. I am afraid the reverse is not true most of the times.

I had one ear piercings before. But don't wear anymore, its almost closed now with just a mark.

To answer the initial question, the english of Gada Ful is Marigold.

But I have another one: What is the English of Boroi? The closest I could come up with is Plum but that is generic group not specific.

View 1:
For more hadith, you can go to islamicity.com.
http://www.islamicity.com/qa/action....op.shtml&-find

View 2: (A different view from above)

The Analogy is nothing belongs to you. Even your soul don't belong to you. Definitely, your body parts don't belong to you. These are blessings from the Almighty. Your duty is to protecting those gifts from any harm. Branding (Like cows are done) or tattooing is a form of hurting yourself. Therefore, having tattoos would be not protecting those gifts but also harming it on purpose. This is my explanation and I am not an expert. Allah knows best.

For those who have Tattoos:

Allah is most Merciful. Repenting is best. For those who are capable perform Hajj. For those who had tattoos before coming to Islam I don't think they have to worry about anything. They begin with a clean account anyways. Anything in the past gets wiped out.

That's not fair. We don't get the "clean record" even though we've practiced Islam all our lives. And when someone converts, they get a "clean record". It's like the phone company deals...if you're a new customer they make the best deals for you. If you're an existing customer, they know that we're under their control now and that's why you don't need good deals

I kinda went the wrong way then. I learned Java first b4 learning C (still learning). C to Java is a easier transition than the other way round. C seems very crude from what I learnt so far. Compared to Java of course.

Puck · #74 August 14, 2007, 10:37 AM

the meaning of life is happiness.

Hatebreed · #75 August 14, 2007, 11:01 AM

The meaning of life is pie. It has many shapes and form, and different flavours. Sometimes it's tough and deceiving on the outside, but tender and full of surprises on the inside. Sometimes life is not what it seems, and you can instead search its meaning in Pi. Sometimes Pi itself can search the meaning of life.
