its Daleem, not Haleem!!!

1.Haleem ko aag pe charhaana hay
2.Haleem ko ghotaa lagaya
3.Haleem jal gaya
4.Haleem kharab hogaya.. etc.

“HALEEM” jo Allah ka sifaati naam hay, jis ke maainay “BURDBAAR” hay, we have named this name as a cooking recipe, although, our recipe’s right name is “DALEEM”, and it has been drived from the words “daalcha” or “Dalya.”

Regards.

Re: its Daleem, not Haleem!!!

Oh wow , amazing information. May be they call it haleem because you need lot of patience to make some very delicious haleem. Ghotafying it properly takes lot of hilm.

Re: its Daleem, not Haleem!!!

Meena, one word has many meaning and when people talk of haleem as a dish, its pakana, ghotna, jalna, etc; they are talking in a different context and by no means it is disrespect to one of the names of Allah or nauz billah to Allah.

Re: its Daleem, not Haleem!!!

i have always had this feeling that something was wrong when eating haleem. also i found the name of my physics teacher (Sir Haleem) very strange although he was a little chubby so i felt perhaps his parents decided to name him after his favourite dish. thanku for sharing.

Re: its Daleem, not Haleem!!!

Muhammad (SAW) has one name which is Mateen and Allah(SWT) has an Attribute which is Al-Mateen.

The difference is only in 'Al' the definite article.

On this premise haleem is not the same as Al-Haleem

Re: its Daleem, not Haleem!!!

but in arabic wouldnt it be 'al haleem' for the dish too? or is my grammar all wrong?

'ya akhi khud al haleem. ana uhibbu jam'ali kaseeran. '

Agree one word has several meanings.it depnds the way we use in any situation.

as a dish there is no need of Al in urdu thats y people call it haleem only.
if u r using it as a name in arabic thn u use AL

Interesting.....never knew that it was derived from daleem. I will say, that Daleem is pretty yummy. I like it topped with crispy fried onions, some dhania, finely chopped ginger, and a good squirt of lemon juice!!!!!!

Re: its Daleem, not Haleem!!!

hmm interesting... lets keep an open mind here..
So Meena, what is the source of this claim? any historic reference?

Re: its Daleem, not Haleem!!!

This bring other question.

Don't we name children these names?

We add Abdul in the beginning but do not use it. Is that really bad?

Karim
Raheem etc.?

How about naming someone Muhammad (SAW) as first name?

Re: its Daleem, not Haleem!!!

yar kuch farak nai perta chahe "haleem" kaho ya "daleem"
bus neyat thek honi chahiey.

Re: its Daleem, not Haleem!!!

^^ some sense here!

Ever heard of term ghalat-ul-aam? its not 'wrong' anymore!

Re: its Daleem, not Haleem!!!

see, i know, faraq nahn parta because we all are Muslims and i know everyone ov us respects Allah and His Rasool and all the Holy personalities, but i just wanted, its better to call it daleem, lets suppose apkay kisi friend ka naam wohi ho jo apke father ka naam ho, aur agar koi 3rd person apke friend ko uska naam leke abuse karay, beshak pal ke liye aapko ajeeb zarur lagay ga!!! baqi- its up to you! :)

Re: its Daleem, not Haleem!!!

Never knew it was daleem :eek:

Re: its Daleem, not Haleem!!!

Haleem originated after the incident of Kerbala from Iraq. Turks, Iranians, Kurds and Iraqies still make this dish and it is called Haleem there.

This dish is by no means a south asian dish.

Re: its Daleem, not Haleem!!!

jee..:jazak:you told me kul in the haleem wali thread …

Re: its Daleem, not Haleem!!!

It is said that when Syrian Army left Kerbala with captives, the local tribes gathered there and did the burrials of the shaheeds. They cooked a food of different grains and meat for themselves over there.

My research exactly 100% correcto :)
