Define what you think a friend means and what a friendship involves.

Trust and honesty are very important to me.  Someone that I can turn to in times of difficulty that can give me the correct naseeah.

Here are my three favorite  quotes on friendship:

- a friend is someone who won't stop until she's found you and brought you home again.

- a friend is someone who's coming in the door when everyone else is going out.

- a friend will help you move.  A best friend will help you move a body. :)

Asslam,
Okay, Friendship is everything what you guys said.
Also to me,friendship is when you can tell someone your secrets(deepest,personal,etc.) and 10 years later she still doesn't tell no one. Friendship is when you agrue/fight over something and the next day she forgives you and vice versa. Wow, friendship is everything. I always tell my best friend, 5o years from now, we're gonna be like those old people sitting on the porch,complaining about everything and reminiseing(misspelled) about the good 'ole days.

Sisters and Brothers
Aslaam u Alikum wr wb,
I think u all r trying to get the pleasure of ALAH(SWT) in the best condiation of health and religous wealth.

I am new here and this is my 1st post also i found this city is very good .

U asked about friend ship so please keep it in your mind

51]  O ye who believe! take not the Jews and the Christians for your friends and protectors; they are but friends and protectors to each other. And he amongst you that turns to them (for friendship) is of them. Verily Allah guideth not a people unjust.

take care remember me in prayers

MASLAAAM

I agree with most of you.  And I would like to add something.  I think a real friend is someone who doesn't take your side all the time.  He tells you when you're doing something wrong and doesn't wait until it's too late for you to know (When you can't do anything about it).

Many people will walk in and out of your life,
but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.

To handle yourself, use your head;
To handle others, use your heart.

Anger is only one letter short of danger.

If someone betrays you once, it's his fault;
if he betrays you twice, it's your fault.

Great minds discuss ideas;
Average minds discuss events;
Small minds discuss people.

Allah gives every bird it's food,
But He does not throw it into it's nest.

He who loses money, loses much;
He who loses a friend, loses more;
He who loses faith, loses all.

Beautiful young people are acts of nature,
But beautiful old people are works of art.

Learn from the mistakes of others.
You can't live long enough to make them all yourself.

The tongue weighs practically nothing,
But so few people can hold it.

Friends, you and me....
you brought another friend...
and then there were 3...
we started our group...
Our circle of friends...
and like that circle...
there is no beginning or end...
(A bit like the Madinah Community here)
fffrriieennnddsss..how many of us have them?

friends r great..:) i love all mines :) they r the best..alhamdulillah :) the ghetto and fobby 1's too :)

*friendship is one mind in two bodies
*in the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends
*fate chooses ur relations, u choose ur friends
*a true friend stabs u in the front
*in a friend u find a 2nd self
*it is better to be in chains with friends, than to be in a garden with strangers

these r a few of my favorite friend quotes :) inshAllah, u guys will enjoy them :) feamanAllah ;-D

Assalamu'alaikum :-)

A friend is...

she who shares a bar of chocolate for our only meal for the day.

she who gives up her bed and sleeps on the floor for you.

she who is willing to listen to the same old thing, and still comfort you with words that bring you peace

she who smiles, and be happy for you eventhough she's hurting inside

she who constantly think and make du'a for you, though she deserves the du'a more

she who loves you... and you know it, even if she's never said it....

she who hugs you for the last time... your last goodbye... and you know that this is the same person that you want to hug again in a place where there is no goodbyes.....

        A Friend is a someone whom you can ask for to pray for you...

        Friendship is when someone prays for you without your asking.

Assalamualaikum

*sigh* - this is a difficult topic...I have to admit tho..that my bestfriend..one who I trust most..would be my ami dearest =)

lol..and im being completely honest here..others unfortunately come and go, you find yourself beginning to open up to one..and its at that point, the point at which you start expecting from the other, that ur prone to be disappointed.

anyways..lol yeah! so my moi would be my best friend...i know it sounds sappy..but its the truth :o)

take care all
