Women’s month in South Africa is a bid to raise awareness to the struggles, sacrifices, and successes of women around the country. The disempowerment of working class women via another yet another s e x scandal and the ‘corrective rape’ and brutal murder of a lesbian woman Duduzile Zozo in the recent past tells of a dismal reality. As the month draws to a close, statistics indicate that women in South Africa are increasingly finding Women’s Month celebrations hollow. If such, we could examine the current democracy method - are equality quotas, a raised awareness of inequality and the promotion of equal visibility, vis–à–vis a Western model, the only ways to be democratic?

For starters, we could examine whether female quotas within decision-making processes (macro and micro) is a form of skewed nepotism rather than the age-old reality: “Do you want to talk to the man in charge, or the woman who knows what's going on?”

For example, let us look at the efficacy of the modern day ‘solidarity march’ versus the original Women’s Day, August 9th march, which commemorates the same day in 1956 when 20,000 women marched in Pretoria to protest a new requirement that non-white women carry passbooks. It would seem the modern-day insistence that women be leaders or ‘visible participants’ at all times is not affecting formidable change. Does the goal of a 50% women quota in parliament (seen as the height of ‘inclusion’ and ‘democracy’) invert patriarchy by stopping men like Senior ANC MP John Jeffery from sexist remarks about DA parliamentary leader Lindiwe Mazibuko's weight, and fellow ANC MP Buti Manamela, from criticizing her dress? read more

Al-Imdaad Foundation – INSIDE SYRIA - Help us build the first containerised village inside Syria.

In order to help the Syrian people who try to cling to life under very difficult circumstances, the Al-Imdaad Foundation is appealing to you to support the establishment of a fully functional containerised village inside Syria to care for widows, orphans and families who have lost everything. The village will cater for their every need. Families will be provided with mattresses, clothing, blankets, kitchen utensils, hygiene kits and freshly cooked food twice a day. This village will also have a Masjid, free schooling for children and segregated toilet facilities as well as permanent supply of water. Your Zakaat for displaced Syrian families is welcome. Lillah is required for the Masjid and school facilities of this village.

For more information please call 0861786243 or visit www.alimdaad.com

If rings, bangles, bracelets, etc. are so loose that water will reach under them without having to remove them, it will still be Mustahab (preferable) to remove them. However, if they are so tight that there is a possibility of water not reaching under them, then it will be necessary and Wajib to remove them. A similar rule applies to the nose ring: that is, if it is loose, then it will be Mustahab to move it, and if it is tight, then while one is washing the face it will be Wajib to move it around so that water reaches everywhere.

FALL OUT!

As we stood in formation at our Naval Air Station, our Flight Instructor said, "All right! All you dummies fall out."

As the rest of the squad wandered away, I remained at attention.

The instructor walked over until he was eye-to-eye with me, and then just raised a single eyebrow. I smiled and said, "Sure was a lot of 'em, huh sir?"
