Subject: Help!! I really need your views on Islamic Finance
Posted: 16 April 2013 at 1:40pm

Salam everybody.

I am currently in the final stages of my MBA thesis and have decided to research Islamic finance in the UK. I would really appreciate it if I could ask you good people to fill in the survey. There are 15 questions, none of them are complicated but I would like people to take the time and think about the answers that they provide. I would like to get 500 responses, so the more people you can reach, the more grateful I am to you.

The research is aimed at identifying the key success factors for Islamic mortgages in the UK. The participants should be Muslims and living in the UK.

All of the information collected is anonymous and participants do not need answer anything that they are not comfortable with. Saying that, the more data collected the better the results can be analysed.
I would genuinely welcome any additional comments and have provided a space for this at the bottom of the survey. If you would like to stay engaged with this project and see some of the data trends please use the comments field in the last box and let me know.

This is true and I think the report button does get used, well it used to be.
 
This way you are putting trust to the very users that are generating the content on the forum.
 
I think the trust is there but when this rule came into effect there was a lot of hate filled people against muslims and islam, and some muslims themselves were not of best behaviour either.  many even resigned up after being banned. There were a lot of complaints. Checking posts before they got posted was a way of controlling the situation.
 
The checking posts is for newbies for x amount of post anyway.
 
Trust me the board was very active, it seems it is not so at the moment.

This is not just a return of formality, but sincere mention that you are one of very few Christians I have met on IC who has done his research on Islam - who does not echo just a seterotype, distorted view regarding Islam - which earns my respect.

Salaam Alaikum, Nausheen.

Thank you for the kind words. I try to do as much research as I can before making claims about what others believe, although there is much about Islam I do not know and I am not finished with the Quran yet.

Thank you for your courtesy and politeness on this forum towards me.

Peace in Christ,

Assalamualaikum wa rahmatullah,

Why is that the ad for Online marriage course on IC shows a woman without hijab? Is this to attract more people?

Have seen similar courses on other websites where they show two rings or two flowers - IC could also come-up with something more creative and modest IMHO.

Braka Allahu feekum,

It really messes up conversations when replies are not allowed to post as they are submitted so that they can be read in order rather than some appearing several posts later.]]> Mon, 28 Jan 2013 23:55:54 +0000 http://www.IslamiCity.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=23505&PID=173468#173468 Comments & Complaints : Do people realize how blessed they are? http://www.IslamiCity.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24588&PID=172796#172796 Author: Matt Browne

Islamicity does indeed belong to the good religious websites! There are a lot of mature people here fully capable of handling disagreements and criticism.

Hi everyone,

I understand that it can be frustrating for it to take a day or sometimes a few days for a post to show up, but I want to state that I have been on many forums, and Islamicity is one of my favourite.

As a Christian, I have posted on some Muslim forums where I have been personally attacked and my beliefs have been mocked. This has not happened here.

I admit that in the InterFaith section, at times discussions have gotten heated and I have been exposed to... and responded with... sometimes with sarcasm. My fellow Muslim debaters and I have critiqued, and sometimes intensely, each others' beliefs and sometimes approaches to debate. However, I have not once experienced any personal attacks or insults.

My posts have all been published, even if some took longer than others... without a hint or editing or censorship.


I have been on Christian forums where Muslims were treated like garbage, and on Muslim forums where Christians were treated like garbage. It is rare to find a Christian or Muslim forum where differing beliefs are not only respected, but are also allowed to be expressed.

I know one Christian forum like this, ChristianForums, which I also regard highly for these same reasons.

 I have been on at least 5 different both Muslim and Christian forums where I have not seen the respect and freedom of expression that IC expresses.


I hope the posters on here realize this.

I would like to thank Islamicity for this forum, and the forum administrators.


Allahma3k.
