Re: Please dont ask me

I believe most traditions start with good intentions, regardless of how they are performed these days. Rather than finding faults in them, we should try to find the spirit and celebrate ‘em in our own way, best suited to us.

By the way, can we have a “appreciate the guppies” day? I am sure we can get a fatwa on it being a halal celebration.

Re: Please dont ask me

A guppies day would defeat the purpose of having a day for the sake of having a day. How about Mod-ders Day.

Re: Please dont ask me

I think Cheegum's thread has served a vital purpose. Now we all know that Cheegum lives with his folks and makes fantastic omelette. We also know that Cheegum is very nice to his folks throughout the year. Thus Cheegum has clarified that he does not need to give extra flowers/mithai/ladoo/card to his mother for this one day of the year.

The point expressed by some others is also valid. That they are very nice to their folks throughout the year, and make another special effort to be extra extra nice to their mother on this one day, just so Hallmark's stockprice remains stable and the neighborhood flower shop can stay in business. I think these are all very noble aims and should be fully supported.

By the way, a friend of mine made an analogy that just because you hug your friend every time you meet at jummah prayer does not mean that you will not hug him on Eid day. The word 'hug', ofcourse is used in the english meaning (this clarification is only for Cheegum's benefit - others don't bother pondering over it).

Re: Please dont ask me

Brothers and sisters, why limit yourself to being very nice when you can be super duper nice, out of this world nice and so-nice-SO-nice-that-you- are-gonna-die? Go ahead, challenge yourself! Use this day to raise the bar (see figure) and set the standard for next year. Then repeat in a loop till you find nirvana and/or your hoors. How about that for an islamic idea

@cHEeGUm

what i gave my mother for mother’s day.

My parents live with me and i take care of my parents like any dutiful son would. At my place its mother’s day everyday. At my place its father’s day everyday. I do more for my parents everyday than what any of you media driven corporate hyped kids think of doing only ONE day in the whole firetrucking year.

So please. Stop trying to make me dig deeper in my pockets and spend on this day just so Hallmark’s stock can go up.

Thankyou.

I 120% agree with you in this matter, we never celebrated all these mother’s n father’s day back home ever, I mean wat’s the point in celebrating only a single day when u r showered with their blessingz n prayers every day.
BUT
this year was the 1st one when i was so faaaaaaaaaaar frm mama, for the 1st time ever in my whole life i did sent her flowerz n card n her favourite perfume n did called n talked to her for a full hour n for the first time ever in my life missed her like hell
may b it just depends on n individual’s perception how one takes it. some times some of the people get involved so much in their daily life routines that they forget abt the other important people around them, as a perfect human being we take every thing n every one for granted. During these times these so called mother n father days do provide a reminder abt the most cherished gifts of our lives.

well how about being “Very Nice” perpetually… and going off-the-chart for that one special day - nothing wrong with that like Muzna and CB said.

Re: Please dont ask me

People!
Please, Return to being “very nice”.. Stop being extra nice or super dooper, inifinitive nice any more. Mother’s Day is already over. You can be only very nice to your mothers now.

@Umar Talib

True said Umar Talib. However again the question looms: Why only that one day? Why not be ""Very Nice" perpetually" everyday? Are we trying to put a limit on the amount of love we can give to our mothers the rest of the non-special 364 days of the year?

Maan duniya ki sub se bari naymat hai, agar main kuch qurbaan karsakta hun, tau apni zindagi, apna pyaar, apni aankhain, apna sub kuch sirf maan ke liye. Mere Maan se mohabbat ka jazba mere junoon se bhi ziyada barh kar hai, mere deewangi se bhi ziyada, mere wajood se bhi ziyada, mere pagal pan se bhi ziyada.
