Magic Anyone??
In a past post of mine "shidee 7ailich"...I spoke about how it upsets me when people say that to me as soon as they know I'm single...I really thought that comment was the cherry on top..but guess what...there's a new one that just topped it off...the mother of all comments...I bumped into an old colleague of mine and he asked if I got married so I blushed and said "no..Allah kareem"...my usual answer...and guess what he said to me..."akeed intay emsaweenlich 3amal"...Good God..wasn't "Shidee 7ailich" enough..now they want me to walk around thinking I have enemies who don't have anything better to do than to make magic and make sure that little old me would never get married...Ok...besides this aggravating me...here's the real question...if marriage is "naseeb"...can a 3amal change your naseeb?...in other words...is magic so powerful enough to let your "naseeb" never come??..ofcourse this leads to a million and other questions but for now...I'd love to hear your comments...what do you think?

Oh Dear God you're kidding me right?! you are definatly kidding me! come on you guys are smarter than to know that this is all bullcrap! you think that the magic mentioned in the Holy Qur'an is the one wirdos speak of now adays?! it just happens that you haven't met your match! inshalla you will get married once a nice understanding guy finds you and knows how to appreciate you! man people are just lame!! ohma shako! okay listen girl next time someone asks you if you got married or not tell them No Ma77ad Mala 3aini! o che3meehom!

Hahahaha that is so typical :)
I actually got the same comments till I got married…simply smile at their ignorance
spontaneousnessity...you sound cute when you're em3asba..:)
Thanks for the words of encouragement...
I've had those comments too....I don't know...sometimes i think...can it really put my naseeb on hold? And sometimes I think...nahhhhhh that can't be, I have 2 beieve in God & he's stronger than this voodoo shmoodoo...so inshallah he'll send me my soul mate one day...
Whenever you encounter remarks regarding your singledom which you do not like, say the following:
"A true believer would never question, or attempt to explain, God's will".
On another note, I believe your friend thinks that in suggesting that magic has prevented your marriage, he is actually making you feel better about yourself.
In ascribing your singlehood to extrinsic factors upon which you have no control, he is trying to tell you that there is nothing wrong with you; you are not a man-repellant, you are a good girl.
Thus, magic has nothing to do with it. Your fate is already predestined before you were born, so it's a waste of time to try to rationalize or alter it. Try to be a good person, that's what matters in the end.

OH My God CosmoGirl, I read both posts on Shiddi 7ailich and What your saying is sooooooo true.
Shiddi 7ailich!! I'm married and I still find that very offensive when told to others.
What pisses me off too is when you're just out of 12 hours of painful labor, tired and in agony from the stiches and the whole 6alg fiasco and the women tell you: ee yalla shiddi 7ailich 3ad immita ithani. i.e when will u have your next child...at that point I just want to smack these women across the face!!!
On the issue of magic:
I'm a true believer in the "evil eye" But not to that extent. It really depends if all your attempted relations suddenly fall apart forno aparant reason or not?
People here do tend to stick everything to 3ain and 3amal
i dont know how to say this, BUT .. mo kel so'al is genuine
its like "ha shlonech?" "e sij, tezawajtay?" .. just talk, not real interest.. what that basically means is dont dig too deep into it, it doesnt have anything embedded
just for u to see it the other way round, i always get "shed 7ailek, khanshofik me3ris al7een 3ad"
at first, i took it seriously and really responded.. now i just say "e khair enshala"
that said, sij ena el dinya emti7aan, but being single doesnt mean u failed .. it doesnt mean anything really
enty bs shedy 7ailech 3ad :P heh jk
Your naseeb hasn't come yet. Our lives are written before we were born as well as our match. IF one is not meant to get married, then God must put reasons for that matter, and magic is one of the million reasons. Besides, magic doesn't just work like that, only if God lets it to.
I get the same question ALL the time, and when a relative or friend gets engaged, everyone stare at me and say, "ilfal lich ya rab". Well, thanks but its not bothering me! If it comes, then it comes. If it doesnt, then it doesnt! :P
magic aint real, there is no such thing
