[quote author=Trustworthy link=board=amazing_race;num=1107928792;start=0#2 date=02/09/05 at 03:31:26]  Why not start like next week?[/quote]
>.. Because once a sis gets married it seems like we loose them for a very long time.... Barr, Malhia, Sophia....etc...

Ps... I would love to have you as my partner again... but not so soon after the honeymoon!

I'm tempted to play...but I work crazy hours: 7 days a week every alternate week, and 6 days a week otherwise :(  sadness.

But but, I'm going to market myself by saying that I'm IN PAKISTAN...so if anyone from an OPPOSITE timezone wants to pair up, we could improve our chances of doing well. or well-ish.  Oh and...I'm an insomiac.  

Yeah but that first weekend on there..I'm working 9am-8pm, both days...so .. that'll be really tough...wooh hmm..I don't know if  I should be making time for an Amazing Race :(

Maybe I should quit my job..lol.

Good luck to all the pairs.

as salaamu alaykum,

me and abu_hamza are still contemplating about whether we should be on the same team or opposing teams :)

hmm... what do you guys think?  the thing is, if we compete against each other, and I win and he totally loses (which will be the inevitable conclusion), it might be discouraging for him, you know? ;)

He'll get over it.....

I don't think you two should be partners in this race.

Imagine the fights if you can't agree on the answer.

Imagine the fights if he submits an answer that you do not agree with and it ends up being wrong!

Imagine the fights if one of you submits and entry late and you loose because of this laziness!

Imagine, why Kathy is writing all of this... may be because she does not want two powerhouses of Knowledge... teamed up!

ariteyyyyyyyy.. phil is gonna implement her (his?) reknowned matchmaker skills...

i think ibs81 and mossy should be partners

and i think labeeb and siddiqui should be partners (i'm still trying to browbeat siddiqui into playing but i think he'll do just fine inshallah)

and as for abu hamza and 7... hmm i'll have to think of good partners for them

maybe another newlywed couple could join them and form two teams of the brides versus the grooms??? (oh wait is that another reality show?) anyhow we'll see

the rest of you people .... SIGN UP NOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

Hmmmm, that's a tough one.  But it looks like Kathy and Jannah have answered this issue and feel that you two should be separated.  I will do my part and offer my services to be Abu Hamza's partner.  This way if our team loses, he can blame me.  And since sister Azizah needs a partner, you can team up with her Se7en.  

What do you guys say?

This sounds so tempting.  A great way to expand my Islamic knowledge.  I'd like to join but don't have a partner :-[  

Would anyone like to team up this sister?  I must warn though, I'm don't have bundles of knowledge regarding Islam.  I'm in U.S. central time zone if that helps.   :)

I respectfully withdrawl my request to play.
I've been ill over a week. (third time in 8 weeks)
Thus I am behind on business and other matters
and cannot be a fair partner to anyone.
I sure did want to play though.
Will look in and learn as the game progresses.
Everyone have fun!!!!!!!!!

Is it it too late to play?? I was fascinated by the first destination..I thought
in the beginning everyone was traveling there phsyicaly. The second place I  think I know that ancient city and it's ruins....but I don't have a partner anyway..I never would have figured out the first so I would need a strong
partner.

That question is answered in the Questions about the game thread.. . but here it is again...
Wa 'Alaikum Assalaam wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh

yup u can... (u won't get a point for the first one of course) but u still need a partner.. i think there was a sister who posted in the Need a Partner thread who needed one...

the single one's who are participating will be disqualified from winning the prize...!!!!

the point of this game is to teach team-building and cooperation... just think of getting a partner as completing half ur madina-deen
