Am I allowed to move into halls without parents permission?

Lool sounds like a plan.

But the wouldnt want me in the library at 11

And no biggest regret ever listening to them

Unfortunately, my mum thinks its against islam to move into halls. Caue i need someone to protect me or something

I dunno if this is true

Really good that you have realised that they are causing problems . Unfortunately for me it has resulted in me having no social life whatsoever

I hope that they have in the past allowed you to go out somewhere with friends, allowed them to come to your house/let you go to theirs? (Friends of the same sex at least)

Yeah my mum is fine with going out. As long as its not past 9 -_- But I'll be at my aunts which is a whole another story. I wont be allowed out then

I doubt that "thou shalt not move into halls" (or however it's phrased in Arabic) is written in the Koran!

Would it be possible to get a more liberal but trusted imam to talk to your parents about it? Or (if your brother is supportive of you) could he talk to your parents about what actually goes on in halls, and how you won't have problems?

Could you come to an acceptable compromise - such as moving into an all-girls' hall (they do exist at some unis e.g. Manchester has St Gabriels) or into an all-girls flat within a mixed hall?

Bear in mind that if your parents were to seriously object to you living in halls, then they could refuse to sign your student finance forms for subsequent years. Although there is some loan that you can get without providing information on parental income, it won't be enough to pay your rent let alone living costs. There is extra funding available for those who are estranged from their parents, but you have to be properly estranged (i.e. no going home for Eid etc.) and able to prove it.

1) Go to library
2) Leave
3) Send text home saying you need to stay longer than you thought
4) Later, send another text saying you'll stay at a friends place which is a lot closer

Get your mum to make it clear to your aunt when she says you can be out?

lol I'm a muslim girl and your parents are being very weird.
Ask them to justify why its against 'Islam' or simply just ask them to find you exactly where in quran does it says its not allowed?

That's pretty good advice. Thanks I'll have to start fresh and talk to parents about it. Hopefully theyll come round in the end.

Cause as a muslim girl.. you need someone to protect you. Something like that

thats rubbish. Tell her muhammad's wife was a businesswoman and travelled alone on her own.
Or quote surah hujrat that details the fact that guys and girls are suppose to talk to each and get to know each other (be friends). Self created religious policies won't do them any good!

Thanks

I've just remembered that Manchester does actually have some private halls which are run by the Manchester Islamic Education Trust (it says in small letters at the bottom of the page). You don't say where you are going, hence why I keep giving you Manchester-based examples, but I would imagine that other cities might have them too? http://www.hhr.miet.org.uk/

Have you also talked to them about how you're going to get heavily involved with your university's Islamic Soc, and how it will be difficult to socialise with other Muslims and engage in religious activities with them if you're not allowed out?

Sahih International
O mankind, indeed We have created you from male and female and made you peoples and tribes that you may know one another. Indeed, the most noble of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you. Indeed, Allah is Knowing and Acquainted.

All scholars agree it clearly states all 'tribes' should get to know each other. There is no 'women should sit seperately' and all that rubbish, thats all cultural.

If she argues more, remind her the Khadija was a businesswoman and also that Muhammad's daughter fell in love and got married too (her father happily married her off) - if men and women weren't allowed to be friends then how would she fall have fallen in love and asked her dad to marry her off to that guy? - so as far as you are concerned you aren't even trying to get on with a guy, whats the issue!

Even the stricter scholars agree, men and women can be friends as long as theres a 'respect' relationship between them but really thats old times.
