Forum Rules and Policies

[farzhana]

As salaamu alaykum wa rahmatullah Ya Banu Midlands

As most of you are new to the forum, I thought it'd be a good idea if you briefly read through the forum guidelines here:
http://forums.almaghrib.org/showthread.php?t=17519

Two of the rules listed in that thread are:

1. Publicising non AlMaghrib events is strictly prohibited.
The only exceptions to this rule are any events which are sponsored by the Banu/Qabeelah, or events where an AlMaghrib instructor will be making an appearance (i.e. the FOSIS dinner we just had in London where Sh. Waleed was the guest speaker)

2. No linking to any outside websites other than the AlMaghrib family. i.e. Khutbah.com, emanrush.com, ilmfest.com etc.
The exceptions to this rule are any links leading to promotional material for a seminar, for example, trailers or posters.

Please be aware that any links or promotional threads of non AlMaghrib events will be removed by one of the moderators. Please don't take it personally.

Please read through the entire thread as there are more guidelines you should be aware of.

Jazakum Allah khayr.

wa 'alaykum salaam wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuhu,

Farzhana will you please make this sticky? Jazaakillahu khayr for posting this up, kinda need to be reminded. Alhamdulillah.

I found this:

"Think Before You Post"

--AlMaghrib Forums Slogan

What does "Think Before You Post" mean? Here are some points to think about while you're "Thinking Before You Post":

*Will the forums be better or worse after I post this?
*Am I posting based on reason or emotion?
*Is this post in the right section?
*Is this really the right time to talk about this?
*Is this addressed elsewhere?
*Can my post possibly harm someone?
*Did I search the forums before I post my question?
*Is this post in accordance with the AlMaghrib Forums Rules?

This is by no means an exhaustive list, of course, but it should give you a general idea.

Just a reminder to myself and everyone else on the forums and folder...

There is something known as free mixing on the net, forums etc. This is to us all inshaAllaah. Once again not so anyone loses any of their brightness, but so we do EVERYTHING that is pleasing to Allaah and keep away from anything that may cause His displeasure.

Let's keep this in mind when posting inshaAllaah and keep it cool.

And Allaah knows best.
