What Grind my Gears

Now i’m in Dubai , now i’m not !

So I’m in Dubai right now , got couple of pictures i wanted to share but it seem flicker is banned over here
( so is craigslist )

i do like what it say at block site web page

We apologize the site you are attempting to visit has been blocked due to its content being inconsistent with the religious, cultural, political and moral values of the United Arab Emirates.

I can understand Religious and moral values ,, but cultural and political ?

Watched two movies here ( the cinema around here are cheaper than Kuwait and less noisy and they don’t cut ,, imagine that ! )

which bring out a dilemma , if they have no problem with showing movies and magazine and books , whats the problem with the internet ? its not as if i was browsing porn sites
( flicker / craigslist are banned right now , and a friend told me youtube was banned for a bit )

This will Sound Rude

IF you know a Working Torrent Site KEEP IT TO YOUR SELF

Do not go around posting it on your blog , yes you may thing you are helping people but in reality you giveing hits to the censors at ministry of Communication

DO you know why Torrent sites and blocked from time to time ?

If you see a site blocked then back up don’t spread the word its back because someone risked his job and got it back

the MOC send a list every month asking for sites to be blocked , and they do read your blogs to get sites because they are blocking sites that have went down a month ago , but still send it because it was mentioned on blogs

So remember if a site return ( or not Return ) there is no need to tell everyone and their family , if a site magicaly returned
keep it to your self or friends you talk to ( not on blogs duh )

You Started it ..

So was Reading Newspapers ( as always ) and i noticed a small note in one of writers corners ( we do have a lot of writers )

[AlQabas][Link] {arabic}

نشاطر الشيخ راشد الحمود الجابر الصباح رأيه في الاعتراض على تسمية نص شارع الهلالي باسم المرحوم عبد العزيز الصقر

WE agree with Sheikh Rashid alhumod Aljaber AlSabah his opinion in on the nameing of 1/2 of Alhilai Street with the name ” Abdullaziz Alsajer”

( There is more but this is the part i need )

So i went checking , i don’t normally Read Sheikh Rashid Articles , not my taste
but him complaining about a name that should be interesting

[AlWatan][Link][Arabic]

يقسم هذا الشارع إلى قسمين، قسم باسم الشهداء والقسم الثاني باسم عبدالعزيز حمد الصقر!!. ما هذا التقييم؟! رجل يوازي الآلاف من الشهداء الذين فدوا الكويت بأرواحهم منذ نشأتها وحتى اليوم؟. ويوازي حكاماً أو يزيد على حكام؟

The street is split into two parts , one parts is Shuhada (martyrs) and the other part Abdullaziz Hamad Alsajir !! what kind of Evaluation is that ? a Man is worth thousands of martyrs that have sacrficed theirs lives for kuwait since its inception and worth rulers or more ?

Clearly we can see his problem , its the rulers part , since he is after all Secretary of the Royal Family
its not after all about martyrs , we do have an Arena named Shuhada , and to tell you the truth , everyone knows that Kuwait does not Care at all about its martyrs , Sure Every day The martyr this or THE martyr that ( THE martyr = Fahad AlAhmad AlSabah )
But no one else is mentioned , we don’t want to remember the invasion AT ALL ( we means government policy )

I love how is that Article he is trying to mention Bad things That Abdullaziz Hamad Alsajir Did , and lump good thing with it
he mention that he was one of the leaders of Monday Dewaniyas ( a popular movement to oppose the suspension of constitution )
and that his Brother Lead a movement

And HE want some recognition for THE martyr , newsflash THERE IS AN AREA NAMED AFTER HIM

Speaking of Area’s , Why we want to create confusion by naming an Area Mubarak AlAbdullah and naming another Area
Abdullah AlMubarak , thats asking to lose mail ( not that they need reason )

one part i like was this

أين ابراهيم المزين العجمي حامل العلم عندما قطعت يده اليمنى بالحرب حمل العلم بيده اليسرى الى ان استشهد.

Where is Ibrahim AlMuzain AlAjmi the Flag Carrier who when his Right hand was cut he held the Flag with his left till he was martyred

1- I Really think that is familiar
2- why name a street WHEN HE ISN’T IN THE HISTORY BOOK , Check the History Book of the Minsitry of Education NOTHING
hell i just tried to google it NOTHING EITHER
YOU DON’T TEACH US ABOUT THESE STUFF and when you do talk about history you try to make it as fluffy as possible

أين أسماء رجال الكويت القدامى الذين خدموها في مجالات مختلفة، منهم هلال المطيري وعلي بن شملان وإبراهيم المضف، الذين اختلفوا مع الحاكم مبارك الكبير وهاجرو

Where is the names of Old Kuwaitis that served Kuwait in many field like Hilal AlMutairi and Ali bin Shamlan , and Ibrahim AlMuthaf that disagreed with The ruler Mubarak AlKabeer and left Kuwait

Look , you need to chose a Side and stick to it , you said Abdullaziz Hamad Alsajir Was Bad because he disagreed with the Sheikh and left Kuwait , and these guys disagreed and left Kuwait but they are good ?

Muna Al-Fuzai should be stopped from writing

I don’t usually follow English newspapers in Kuwait , but it does seem they have a low standard of writers ( or lack off )
there is no other explanation why they leave someone like Muna Al-Fuzai still writing in Kuwait Times

First we had Everyone get Raped in Kuwait thing

and now we get this is her recent article [Link][Kuwait Times]
[PDF] In case its removed

A religious Islamic ruling was made recently to approve the husband’s right to take his wife’s salary because the time she spent outside was his own and thus he is entitled to take her salary

What ? are you drunk , who the hell said anything like that ?

its not logical and not only that but Islam doesn’t promote this







004.032 وَلا تَتَمَنَّوْا مَا فَضَّلَ اللَّهُ بِهِ بَعْضَكُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ لِلرِّجَالِ نَصِيبٌ مِمَّا اكْتَسَبُوا وَلِلنِّسَاءِ نَصِيبٌ مِمَّا اكْتَسَبْنَ وَاسْأَلُوا اللَّهَ مِنْ فَضْلِهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمًا
004.032 And in no wise covet those things in which Allah Hath bestowed His gifts More freely on some of you than on others: To men is allotted what they earn, and to women what they earn: But ask Allah of His bounty. For Allah hath full knowledge of all things.

Al-Qur’an, 004.032 (An-Nisa [Women])


Also another Online Fatwa from IslamOnline

أجمعَ فقهاء المسلمين على أن لكلٍّ من الزوجين ذِمّته الماليّة، ولا ولاية لأحد الزوجين على الآخر في المال ولا في النفس، ولا ينوب أحدهما عن الآخر إلا بطريق الوكالة أو التفويض، وأنّ عقد الزواج لا يُرتِّب إلا الحقوق الزوجية، وأوجب الإسلام على الزوج أن يُنفِق على زوجه كل أنواع النَّفقة المُتعارَف عليها في كل عصر وأوان، وليس لأيٍّ منهما حقُّ التصرُّف في مُمتلكات الآخر إلا بما جرى به العُرْف في متاع المنزل والمعيشة، وإذا كان هذا لم تندمِج أموالُهما بمُقتضى عقد الزوجية، وإنما يكون هذا بتراضيهما وبمقتضى عقود التصرف في الأموال المعروفة شرعًا والمتعارَف عليها كالشِّركة بأنواعها المشروع

Muslim scholars unanimously Agree that each spouse have a separate , and no spouse has the control of the other wealth or life and no spouse may have mandate over the other unless by agency , and marriage only arrange conjugal rights and Islam requires the husband to cover all his wife expenses that is the norm in every age and time
and not any of them has the right to dispose of the property of the other unless its the custom in the home objects and their money isn’t combined by marriage , its only combined by ways of regular contracts like company and such

so what we get it ?

Kuwait Times , please stop Muna AL-Fuzai
