Ignorant But Opinionated - girl with headscarfWeddings should always be about the bride.  Her glittery Pantene hair; her natural shades of make-up; her snowy white dress; it’s always about the bride unless something drastic happens.  Like, say a hijab-clad woman enters an all-non-Muslim wedding.

Some people wonder what you’re doing there and immediately want to know who invited you, perhaps out of curiosity or perhaps so they can sigh in relief.  Also, because people will be politically incorrect, thanks to subconscious-awakening tongue-loosening alcohol.

Theology or Political-Theology?It is amazing to see how some of the most fundamental concepts of Islam have been distorted following the current political trends in the region.  We now see Arab and Foreign media using the term suicide bomber as a synonym for a Mujahed.  Such terminology has now become a part of the international language of current affairs, and as we see it and hear it in the news, our understanding has been misguided by a few editors who think they have the right to use the terminology they see fit.

Goodbye, Lenin!2004 release in Germany. Rated R for brief language and sexuality.

The film is set in
East Berlin, 1989. Sentiment against the Berlin Wall builds in the city and Alex (Daniel Bruhl), the central figure of the film, finds himself in a street protest. As the crowd swallows him and police violence ensues, he sees his socialist mother collapse in the middle of the street.
