I agree with brother Adidas. People choose to eat fatty foods and then sit and do nothing. People hardly walk. I myself am not fat, but as many unfat people, i love to eat.

Being fat is unhealthy and i wonder how these people will do Jihad if the time came. I mean they'd be an easy target wouldn't they?

May i add, Wasim, are you in UK and are you fat?

Also, i have no idea how this is to do with Fiqh. I wonder what the site admin has to say about this issue.

Darul Uloom students are not fat either. Some are because they neva exersize, they just study so Allah knows best what can be done about them.

Also, i have no idea how this is to do with Fiqh. I wonder what the site admin has to say about this issue.

Being fat is not natural. If a person don't eat like there's no tomorrow (as the wise one wasim says), how can bein fat be natural.. I think eating healthy foods is not just the way, Halal is also a big issue. I just hope the liscensing authorities which i heard the people at muftisays will undertake soon goes a success. We need that in london.

As for brother adidas... it happens, i dont know many sisters who wud use the name ADIDAS.

And yea, the Ulamaa do need to take a break on the Da'wats. No effence respected Ulamaa but i'm sure many agree, we still love you.

Hmm... no comment.. it's kinda interesting. Hopefully many lessons can be learnt from fat concerns. As in people with high "metabolism" can control themselves in fear of being suject to this subject.

P.S. if you are overweight and find anything said in this topic offensive in anyway, do let me know and i will have it removed as long as what you find offensive is actually offensive. I've looked through and Alhamdulillah it's clean so far

Fast food is another great cause over sized ppl. There is a documentary film about it. I am not encouraging to watch it but basically it shows how a person who ate from McDonalds for only 30 days put on somthing like 40 lbs. Now that is alot of weight for only 30 days. Ppl eat fast food day in day out. That could be one other reason of Uk'ers and USA'ers being FAT

Families in India that have the benefit of being "well off" in terms of wealth are just as if not fattter than similar people in the UK. It has nothing to do with nationality, it has everything to do with diet.

Any food eaten constantly for 30 days would have ill effects not just fast food, though fast food is understandablly worse being high in fat and carbs.
