nicely done bro, and they also said that person who go to friday prayer but unable to listen to khutbah is like tak-payah-pi-pun-takpa hehehhe

i remember three teenagers, sitting right beside mimbar, standing up right when the imam read khutbah for aidilfitri prayer hehheheh

If we look into the Friday prayer (for muslim), one of the condition that must be fulfilled for the prayer to be valid (sah) is to have 1 person delivering the "khutbah", and 40 people actually listen and understand the "khutbah". If only 39 people listen, then technically the whole group's solat will not be valid.

interesting
what is the percentage of muslims in your country?

r u muslim?

noushy – the idiom does describe ppl who incapable of listening very graphically.

its also true that those with no sense of direction, usually dont want to change, thus keep a closed mind, rejecting every word ppl offered to them.

a similar english idiom if im not mistaken would be – fall on deaf ear,

Listen...
listen...
hell i dont have anything to comment
on 'listen' other than my supplier
who dont listen to the request i've
given them...
How to learn a new language.
u start by listening...
then observing...
then trying (to speak)
its not the other away around.
n believe me.. if u dont listen...
the idea of speaking in other tongue is a far far away dream.

i guess thats goes the same with advice.

I recalled a Msian saying 'bagai mencurah air didaun keladi'...that's how importance the art of listening!

Anyone could speak and give a speech on certain topics or issues,and pple could be there watch & hear what been said, but not everyone listens to what been said!!

It takes more than interests,when listening to others...the contents, presentations and also attitude!!

p/s some pple has trouble in staying motivated even after been advised many times simply because they don't have purpose or objective in life!..that's why they won't listen..only with meaningful purpose will come the energy to follow and listen to what been said.

Thanks Banji.
