Retirement Of Simba/welcome Brickside Options

I started MuslimOnline.org in 2005 with a very personal purpose: learn more about Islam. I found that sites all around the web were either one side or another, and very few if any showed a complete picture of Islam.

The forum was built with that purpose. By letting people talk and debate without cutting each others throats and without moderators getting in the way as to cause bias, I was hoping to get a more complete picture. And I did.

Well its been over 5 years since that goal, and I have to say it's been quite a run. However, I now have other things to take care of in my life, and I just don't have time to give to Mo, the time it deserves.

Therefore I began looking for a successor. I've actually been searching for over a year now.

Finally I found someone that possessed the philosophy, technical skills, and passion to be the new owner of Mo. His name is Brickside. He's actually my cousin, and I've known him since he was a baby. I truly do believe that he can take Mo to places I never could.

Brickside's duties will be to be the legal owner of Mo and all it's entities. He will add new features, expand the site, handle finances, and fix problems. He will also be owner of admin@muslimonline.org and will also own all the extensions I have made like the Quran for Joomla.

iamcrazy is still the President of the MoCity forum. So she still has final say on the forum. This separation of powers is critical for Mo's future as a trustable website.

"Be United. Be Yourself". That's the slogan of this website. My sincere hope is that all its members help expand this idea and make Mo into something even greater than it was in it's hay day. I have given Brickside some ideas on where to move forward, and if he is able to complete those, Mo will be much more than just a forum.

I will make occasional returns to the site as a regular member. But as Simba, this is my final post unless Brickside really needs me.

In making this website, I have made many friends, many whom even though I have never met, but nevertheless they are very close to me. So many memories... ahh im tearing up. I will cherish these friendships forever.

PS: A very special thanks to iamcrazy, who kept the site's sanity when I went crazy.

Assalamu alaikum (Peace be upon you)

Aaah, awesome stuff. Thanks to you too many of us have benefited from this site. I can honestly say I might have been a different person had I not found MO. Really helped me open my mind to others, learn so much about the ''real'' Islam and heck, grow as a person. I think you'll find many of us on MO feel the same way if not we have felt change through MO. Love the people I've met.

So, thank you Sartaj, you are seriously going to be missed.

Welcome aboard Brickside =D

I am Brickside, more formally known as Abrar. From this point, I will be taking over as the owner of Mo in place of Sartaj. I know that Sartaj has high hopes for me and the future of Mo, and so I intend to give all the time that I have to make Mo into something much greater than it is right now. Together we can continue the legacy of Mo and fulfill its slogan, "Be United, Be Yourself".

As I learn the ins and outs of how Mo works, I would like to get to know the admins and active members. I have no intention of hiding who I am, and I am hopeful that I will get similar openness from all of you. Feel free to come to me with questions or concerns.

It is a pleasure to be able to work with all of you. We are in a time of transitions, and I hope that you all can bear with me as move towards the future.


Assalamu alaikum (Peace be upon you)
