News / URGENT: Chechens refugees found a Islamic State in Poland [37]

But it's an accusation.

My country is a former British colony. Hope that's enough reason for me to write fairly good English?

don't care about conscience and tolerance.

You can't be a Muslim if you're intolerant and unconscientious.

News / URGENT: Chechens refugees found a Islamic State in Poland [37]

Not worth having a thread about it; especially one prefaced with the word 'URGENT'

It's just another hate mongering call.

It's funny how this guy who claim to be African muslim composes sentences in English in a typical way to the British users of this forum.

I'll take that us a compliment ;)

For sure and the video from this event is also made up.

It 'll sell better if you could help paraphrase what is happening in the video. Most of us don't speak Polish, remember.

The fact that you dont believe at the article because it is not convenient for you

Must everyone agree to this cooked up story? There has been a lot of refugee camps in other countries before the one you're talking was established. How come we never heard such bigotry from those camps?

News / Polish government to allow kosher and halal methods of animal slaughter [29]

they eat only meat slaughtered by their islamic rite

You seem to be filled with hatred for Islam. Have you ever seen the way smalls are killed in your abattoirs? Please try and visit one, i'm sure you'll reconsider your thoughts when it comes to halal or non halal. Yes we slaughter animals with "blades" but not by punching.

Life / Comparing Poland and Romania [108]

I having lived in Romania for 3 years and now into my second year in Poland, I would strongly recommend Poland. I spent 3 years in Bucharest and I happen to visit other cities as well.

What I didn't like in Romania is the public transport and the roads. The trams are like artifacts in a sixteenth centuary museum. You wait for a bus or tram without any idea when it's going to arrive. The smell in the buses and trams are disgusting.

Women; I will chose Romanian girls :). I find them more attractive than Polish girls.

Romanian music is one of the best in Europe. i love the language and the music.

they leave you alone if you leave them alone

I don't remember exactly but somewhere around 2012 or 2013 the stray dogs killed a boy an a Japanese tourist. They are nuisance to major cities of Romania.

Romanians are mostly pretty friendly and open (more so than Polish)

I see Polish as being more friendly than Romanians. It could be a personal experience though.

In clubs guys are dressed in suits like they are there to attend business meetings.

The rate of corruption is very high in Romania. There is a huge gap between the rich and the poor in Romania. I guess the middle class is very thin.

Work / Information about jobs for Indian students in Poland [286]

None of the former colonies(British) centers their educational system on the English Language. However, without a doubt, English is the official language so the educational system has to be run in English(not teaching of English only). The reason being that the natives of the colonies speaks more than one language(except Malta and Ireland) so in order to avoid the conflict of superiority complex they opted for the English Language.

I don't see why people on here think is almost impossible to get a job whilst studying in Poland without knowing the language. It entirely depends on what the person have to offer in the job market. I was once a student here(though I never worked) but I had colleagues who were non Europeans but they were having part-time jobs. Most of them had full time jobs waiting for them before they even graduated. If you speak French and English(even if you're non European), you stand a better chance of securing a job in Poland than an average Pole.

Life / Are there any Muslim areas in Poland? [173]

You forgot the part where you want Sharia law in Poland and is promoting it openly at this thread

I never advocated for Sharia in Poland. I'm from a Christian majority country where everyone is governed by the constitution. I'd rather promote it in my country if that was my intention after all I'm just here temporarily.

Life / Are there any Muslim areas in Poland? [173]

they want all Muslims to be subject to only Sharia law.

I think you've been bias in understanding the Sharia. It's unlawful(sin) for any Muslim to live in any country(whether Muslim dominated country or the vice versa) and refuse to abide by the laws of that particular land. However, if the law says everyone is at liberty to practice any religion then it shouldn't be any problem making demands.

people who are have been drinking or women who are dressed in non muslim clothes are not allowed to walk through the area.

I highly doubt the credibility of the above statement. Islam doesn't teach its followers to force their religion on anyone.

We? Who is we? So tell me why would Muslim wanted to move into country with anti-Muslim legislation?

i'm referring to the fact that i'm a Muslim. Don't forget that most of us(Muslims) who're here are either students or professionals gainfully employed here in Poland.

I know very well that what you deemed to call a vulgar might be seen that way among snotty nosed snobs

So who is being arrogant here?

No I labeled you as a impostor from the start.

Anyone who doesn't walk your way mustn't necessarily be an imposter. Saying whatever you want doesn't take away the fact that I'm a Muslim and an African.

Ironside-I suggest you kiss my dog under his tail before you try to patronize me

You just labelled us as being abusive. Like seriously? For that supposed "idiom" you kept fuming about; I'll let sleeping dogs lie because you seem to have little or no knowledge about metaphors.

Levi-The problem are the dangerous pakistanis and north-africans wanting to implement Sharia Law. Just like you.

It 'll be irrational for a Muslim to live in a Christian dominated country and demand for implementation of a Sharia Law.

I'm a black West African Muslim.

So you are in fact translating from Polish - yet have the temerity to criticise the poster for his English?

I couldn't agree more ;)

I'm living here in Poland and yes, I'm enjoying every bit of my stay :)

Ironside-Yes I did but that just proved my point, it is you who seems to have a problem to understand idioms.

I'll suggest you correct the grammar, punctuate your sentence correctly, before we start talking about idioms.

We could always introduce the jizya tax for Muslims.

We wouldn't have complained either ;).

Ironside-You don't speak English, not really or rather you speak an artificial language called by some international English.

Yet you could understand what I'm writing. Isn't that surprising for someone who claims to know the Queen's language?

Ironside-It doesn't mean to, it means to be a deterrent for Muslims thinking about coming to Poland.

That still wouldn't deter Muslims from coming here, provided they have tangible reasons to be here. What will you even say about the Polish Muslims? Will you suggest an exile?

Grzegorz_-A small deportation could fix some past mistakes...

I came here willingly, if you care to know. Don't even think the Muslims in Poland are here illegally. I have no reason what so ever to stay here for the rest of my life and the same applies to most foreigners I know here. So don't worry, we are already planning to leave in the near future. The nation can save that deportation money for other pressing issues facing your country.

Ironside-I insinuate nothing just saying that if you are Muslim then you are a cheeky bugger.

Do you even have conscience? Just read up then you will see the vulgar language you're using on the platform.

Ironside-In case you are unable express yourself properly

What a good way to flaunt yourself.

by closing all Mosques that are less than 70 years old, by taxing heavily all support you get from the Saudi Arabia or other foreign sources, by forbidding wearing hijab.

Don't be naive! Clossing Mosques, forbidding hijab among others you can name cannot stop a practical muslim from abadoning his religion. Those laws are already binding in some countries yet there are still Muslims.

I'm not even aware of aid from Saudi Arabia that goes to Muslims in Poland.

kaz200972-To the OP and anyone else of a similar mind,please read.

Are you sure that wasn't written by a junky? No one in his right senses will make such demands. Besides that, it doesn't even reflect the life style of Muslims in case you're of that thought.

mafketis-Sounds like all the work is on their side, what contribution do you make?

I don't hug your boys, neither do I kiss them on the cheek when greeting them :D. Besides that, none of my way of life is considered contrary to the Polish life style. Afterall there are some Poles who don't drink nor smoke.

mafketis-no integration then

Are you telling me that I have to be a Christian in other to be integrated here? My Polish friends respect my values and I respect theirs too. If there weren't differences then no one would have talk about integration. They don't give me a shot of Vodka or a bowl of soup that contains pork when they invite me for dinner. I suppose they understand integration better than you and I, don't they?

Life / Are there any Muslim areas in Poland? [173]

Wulkan-I read in the news that a lot of muslims leave Poland due to the increase of attacks on the streets

I'm not going to argue about that because I haven't heard from any Muslim saying he is going to live Poland or has been attacked after the unfortunate incident in Paris. I still see the same faces I have been seeing in the mosque except that there are new faces popping up every Fridays. Believe or not, Poles are embracing Islam here in Wroclaw. If you doubt what I am saying then I can invite you to where we worship in order for you to meet and speak some of them. We're not as your media portray us.

mafketis-How do you deal with the presence of so many things in daily life that strict muslims think are immoral?

You can practice Islam where ever you find yourself in this world. Thinking something is immoral is different from doing it. So yes, I abstain from what ever is unlawful in my religion.

mafketis-How can very observant muslims hope to integrate in an environment filled with so many things that are haram?

Like I mentioned earlier, living in an environment where so many things are haram is not enough to prevent a muslim from living there. Of course if the environment was hostile that would have been a different case, which in my case it is not so I'll go on with my religion and they go on with their way of life. It's as easy as that.

Levi-unless you are another Pakistani / Turkish trying to impose Sharia Law and Muslim Areas at Poland

You living in the Middle East doesn't mean you know anything about Islam. In case you don't know, the religion Islam is against coercing anyone into accepting Islam. You can google this chapter, it will enlighten you a little.

Quran 109:1-6

Binaca-Then what relegion are you??

Unless you are telling me she has no right to belong to the other religions such as Buddhism among the others, perhaps an Atheist if you've forgotten.

There are already Muslims in Poland and our community 'll continue to grow bigger. In sha Allah!

Study / Transfer ECTS credits to a Polish university...possible? [13]

if i transfer lets say 150 ETCS, at least 75 must match with the polish list of courses ?

That is 50% but that doesn't guarantee your admission but it qualifies you for the transfer. I hope I made myself clear enough?

I believe the transcript must be legalized or apostilled and in polish ? ( or english ?)

If the transcript is not in English then you need to translate it to English. At this stage the legalization is not necessary. It's just for you know if your courses or ECTs could be accepted here. Anyway, you need to speak with the school, if possible request for the email of the Dean. That will make things easier for you.

Work / Studies In Poland, is it easy to survive on part-time jobs? [259]

mafketis-The "push' here is coming from administration, not so much from faculty.

Yeah! that is why the teachers are squeezing some time out of their busy schedules just to attend private English courses. Are you telling me they are not at liberty to turn down those proposals made by the administration?

mafketis-They've fallen under the allure of an imperial language and imbibed a toxic ideology about its superiority?

Unless you're telling me you haven't also fallen for that. LOL

mafketis-I've heard wonderfully eloquent and effective teachers (in Polish) who operate at about 50% when they use English.

Is true though........ is just sad that they have accepted an offer they know they can't truely and genuinely deliver.

Study / Transfer ECTS credits to a Polish university...possible? [13]

My questions is if its possible to transfer my ECTS credits done to a polish university.

It is possible only on the condition that you have at least 50% of the ECTs being the same as the one offered in the Polish university. Also you will have to agree that you will take exams on all courses that do not much or couldn't be transfered (thus; if your ECTs fall short of the required sum at the end of the academic year). I'm currently working on a transfer for a friend who is due to commence in February. The first step is to get your most recent transcript, then send it to the Dean of the faculty of the university you intend to attend. If there are similarities then you stand a chance.

EU nationals study with the same conditions as polish students ( free tuition fees?).

As far as I know, the Polish students I have studied with were paying some subsidized fees(not as much as we the non EU) if they opt to study in English. However, English Philology is free for the Polish.

Work / Studies In Poland, is it easy to survive on part-time jobs? [259]

mafketis-State universities are better but most are really not prepared to teach in English (no reason they should be, their mission is to prepare students to live in Poland.

Most of the tutors are pushing to be offered courses which are taught in English even though most of them cannot speak English for 5 minutes without committing grammatical error.

Moreover, majority of our classmates are Polish, guess you want to know why? There are more study materials in English than there will ever be in Polish. Not a bad choice, huh? Next time you want to express your opinion regarding a topic, I will suggest you do a little research.

Study / Thinking about completing my studies in Poland, perhaps for a permanent stay. [CANADA/M/17] [3]

I have some 15-20 thousand dollars saved for University

If you intend to study in Poland with the budget you've already quoted here I bet it's going to be fine for you. As someone who studies here, I can tell you that $20,000 for 3 years will be more than enough(though your life lifestyle really matters). There is a school here in Poland where you can study for free for the first year as an International Student then pay 2400 EUR for the subsiquent years. It could be a good boaster in your case.

completely fluent in French and English

That puts you in a keen position to secure a job even whiles in school(In case you're considering a part-time job). You will have no problem securing a job in Poland even after graduation, and trust me, you don't need Polish to find a job with knowledge of the above mentioned languages (Polish is extremely important in your social life though).

I am giving you an honest advice; if you are interested in studying in Poland or living here, then do it ;). Else you're going to regret that you didn't take a chance. I am an international Student here in Poland and I'm enjoying every bit of it. I know most Poles don't like their own country. If they happen to stumble upon this thread, they will give you every farcical reason not to come here. GO FOR IT!!!
