Okay i will start with myself then.

I would like to die anytime, except my last words should then be there's only One God to love more than any other thing and all the Prophets did teach us well.

I was born on the 21st of December. Hmmm...

So here's one of my traits being a Sagittarius...

'I should see the garden far better ... If I could get to the top of that hill:
and here's a path that leads straight to it- at least; no, it doesn't do that... But I suppose it will at last. But how curiously it twists!... Well then, I'll try the other way."

And so on and so forth?

Stay far away from all forms of magic. Astrology is one of them because it involves djinn.

All forms of divination are evil. God alone knows the unseen.
I don't have any traits of my own but God Says to thank Him for His Blessings and He Will Grant you more...

Yes, we should be thankful for all of Gods blessings. Indeed God says whoever is grateful will receive more.


I'm not saying birthdays are evil, but astrological signs are. You really should avoid them and everything connected to them. They lead to shirk.

I don't tell no fortune. Character and personality traits are what is habit-based.

Difference between Astrology and Astronomy

It is important to differentiate astrology from astronomy – two terms that some people falsely use interchangeably. As opposed to astrology, which is the use of stars and their constellations to predict events, astronomy is a branch of science that deals with the study of heavenly bodies and the universe as a whole. Astronomy is based on observable facts, systematic studies, and the use of human intellect. Throughout history, it has facilitated navigation and timekeeping. Because astronomy has nothing to do with the impact of heavenly bodies on human destinies, it is permitted in Islam. In fact, several verses of the Quran allude to astronomy, on the basis of which, Muslim scientists made valuable contributions to the field of astronomy in the past.

I never said you told fortunes, I simply reminded you to stay away from astrology. Sagittarius is an astrological sign.

May the only one worthy of worship grant us beneficial knowledge.

Are you scared because of the word 'deathdays'?

I don't wish you death, daze...

No, I'm not bothered by it.

I know you don't. No worries.

From an Islamic perspective psychological astrology may be the only acceptable form of astrological consultation while the predictive astrology is viewed as fortune-telling. But even psychological astrology faces difficulties in the sight of many Islamic theologians. After all, it doesn't conform to the traditional scientific rules. Some Muslim scholars may recognize astrology as a study which portrays accurate personality profiles but they may still think it is impermissible since God forbids this particular practice. Certain things, especially knowledge of future events, must remain hidden to us for a reason we may not think of. I think Surah Anam (6:59) from Koran may support this view: "With Him keys of the unseen, the treasure that none knows but Him".

I would say that finding an example of the Sagittarius Sun sign is as easy as rolling off a log, except that it isn't true. It's much easier than rolling off a log. Pick any party and look at the center of the liveliest group. See that fellow sitting there happily with his rather large foot stuck in his mouth? He's a Sagittarian who has just gone out on a verbal limb, but he doesn't know it yet. When he does, he'll look slightly bewildered-and the group around him will be looking daggers.

The archer will walk up to you, give you a hearty slap on the back and a wide, friendly grin. Then he'll greet you with a remark like, "How the heck do you manage to look so young when you're as old as you are?" Or "Say, that turtleneck sweater sure is flattering. You should wear them all the time. Hides your double chin." After one of these cheery openers, he'll still be wearing his bright grin, but your own smile may start to droop a little. It will take him a while to figure out just what he said that set you back on your heels, and even longer to understand why. Then he'll try to explain. Keep your cool. It gets worse.

Golly, didn't you understand what he meant? He thinks it's fabulous to look only twenty-five years old when you're really thirty-eight (which is six years older than you actually are). As for the double chin, lots of people your age have a little flab in the neck region. The only time you can see it is from the side. You know, when you turn your head. Just don't have any pictures taken in profile.

After he's carefully explained his verbal goofs and got you feeling all better again, he'll go on his merry way, whistling a tune from the latest Broadway show. When you cut him dead the next time you meet, he'll be heartbroken -and puzzled. There's no use getting angry or embarrassed. Sagittarius is completely free of malice. He blurts out his shockingly direct speech in total innocence. The fact that he usually adds insult to injury when he tries to fix it also escapes him. Don't judge him too harshly. He means well. Not that he needs your sympathy-or mine. Under his tactless manner is an extremely clever mind and high standards. His unique combination of wit, intelligence and fiery drive usually brings the archer straight to the winner's circle. What really gets you is that both male and female Sagittarians are oblivious to their own blunt speech. They are truly convinced that they are the most diplomatic souls in the world. They're always saying, "Why, I wouldn't hurt anyone's feelings for anything. I'm very careful about that." And they honestly believe it. In fact, everything they do is done honestly. Pretense and deception in any form appalls them.

That's about me, Alhamdulillah.

When's your birth @Daze ?

How to Recognize GEMINI

Well, firstly they would probably have been born between

May 22nd and June 21st.

Although all in all, since every creature of God is a pair for every other false one, a Gemini can also be a Cancer, symmetrically speaking that is.

"I wish you woudn't keep appearing And vanishing so suddenly. You make one quite giddy!"

This time it vanished quite slowly, beginning with the end of the tail, and ending with the grin, which remained for some time after the rest of it had gone.

If there are times when a Gemini person makes you think you're seeing double, don't run out and change your glasses. Just remember that Gemini is the sign of the twins, and there are two distinct sides to his changeable personality. Now you see it, now you don't. Was it love you thought you caught fleetingly on those mobile features?

Hate? Ecstasy? Intelligence? Idealism? Sorrow? Joy?

The mercurial changes of a Gemini's expression are as fascinating to watch as the psychedelic lights in a discotheque. It's hard to tell where reality ends and illusion begins. They blend-then they separate.

see this is why correct aqeedah and minhaj are so important. this illustrates why it's such a big deal.


zodiac signs are part of astrology and astrology is part of witchcraft.

Ibn 'Abbas (May Allah be pleased with them) said:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "He who acquires a branch of the knowledge of astrology, learns a branch of magic (of which he acquires more as long as) he continues to do so."

[Abu Dawud].

it is shirk.

Zayd ibn Khalid reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Allah Almighty said: Among My servants are those who awaken with faith in Me and disbelief in Me. Whoever said we have been given rain due to the favor and mercy of Allah, he is a believer in Me and an unbeliever in the stars. Whoever said we have been given rain due to the rising of this star, he has disbelieved in Me and has put his faith in the stars.”

Source: Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 1038, Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 71

Grade: Muttafaqun Alayhi (authenticity agreed upon) according to Al-Bukhari and Muslim

Little did I know then that my younger brother would soon leave this world.

He left for the world of the grave around the 13th of October 2023.

Funny how my mum was born on a 13th too, though not of October.

About my younger brother
IMG-20231119-WA0003.jpg
He was a Cancer.

Cancer was his astrological sign.

In other words, Azhar had, as a mirror image in the stars, the astrological sign of Cancer.

Logical, since God Did Create another version of each and every one of His servants, among the stars in Heaven, Paradise.

"Azhar" means "Brillance" also known as 'Abdun Nūr, Servant to The Incomparable Light).

By God, The Creator of knowledge through one way or another, is how anybody really knows any thing at all, from the simplest of "A"s to the most complex of "Zee"s.
