When Sulayman ibn AbdulMalik visited Makkah, he asked if there was anyone present who has met the companions of RasulAllah (saw).
“Abu Hazim,” they replied.
“Why is it that we dislike death? Why is it we don't want to die?” Sulayman asked.
Abu Hazim replied, “Because you have built and established this world and you have destroyed your Aakhirah, so you hate to go from what you have established to what you have destroyed.”
I couldn't sleep for a whole week after I watched IT. Everything scared me, and I imagined him popping out of somewhere, out to get me.

alright i gotta admit after watchin this movie back when i was a kid i always gave a double glance at the street gutters. i just recently watched it again a couple of months ago and found out it actually was a horrible movie, why is that all of the great movies we once watched as kids turn out to be low budget flounders that actually pretty bad
It was a miniseries made in 1990 (thats 18 years ago folks) its not going to hold up to todays amazing special effects, but I'd have to say it was faithful to the book in creepiness. The book was much longer and more enjoyable
Low budget flounders? Nothing I can think of that I feel that way about.

Those are the kind of eyebrows I was talking about in one of those marriage threads! They make the woman who has them seem like...ermm... a person of malicious intent.
