The Power of Words

It is still a mystery that how men kind initiated invention of words or sounds of words.  May be the men somehow came to know certain sounds to communicate their feelings, actions and emotions thereby later on the initial letters came into being which could be combined to represent those sounds.  The sounds whether spoken or written in combination of letters are ‘words’.

A word is, then a simple sound or a written sign of a sound, which men of any particular nation have agreed s

Today is Eidul Aladha. It's a great day for the Muslim people, its fasting atones one year in advance and the previous year. It's a big feast full of its sacrifices. The hajji  slaughter his animal as a sacrifice for Allah. it's indeed a great closeness to God. Its closeness can be seen from the joy on the faces of both the pilgrims and the people who are staying at home. Eidul Adha is a great opportunity for those who have some enmity or hate to one another to come and make reconcilia

At first glance, you will be in for a doozy. The site is pretty disorganized, especially with all of the necessary information squeezed in one landing page. I asked for an essay, which was pretty easy – considering that it

As we mentioned before, before the sunset of the second day of hajj, Allah, The Almighty would forgive everyone on plain Arafat. It's a great day for Muslims. Satan is never seen smaller than on this day. We are fasting today. According to hadith, fasting of Arafa day atones one year before and the next year. I hope Allah will accept our fasting. Before sunset, pilgrims must leave plain Arafah back to Minna. They must pass plain Muzdalifa and spend the night there. On their faithful journey, the

What’s your expectations at the Funeral & at the Wedding?

If you happen to attend for a Funeral, don’t expect any comfort from them because in this hour of grief, they needed you to be a part of them. Do not be a burden to them.

But if you are invited for a Wedding, Be there and have your own comfort as they really needed you to enjoy and to be a witness of this special day.

This is truly my own thoughts. You may agree or may not.

Constructive criticism is always Appreciated!

We are on the second day of hajj. It's Thulhijjah 9^th 1437 H. as we mentioned before, after sleeping in Minna, and after dawn prayer, the pilgrims will move to plain Arafah. This is the main corner of hajj. According to Prophet Mohammed, (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, ((Al-hajj Arafah)). This simple phrase implies a great concept of the meaning of hajj.  It means that the whole hajj and its legality are confined in the effective day of Arafah. It means that hajj becomes valid o

Today is 10-09- 2016 which corresponds to the 08-12- 1437 H. The eighth day of Thulhijjah.  It is the first day of hajj. Pilgrims are arriving in Mecca to make arrival Tawaf to surround kaaba seven times, and then, they go to Minna. This is called the day of (tarwiyah) or the day of irrigation. Tarwiya in Arabic comes from the verb (yarwi) irrigates. It was given that name because the water, during those days was very rare or rather nonexistent at all. Pilgrims come to Mecca and then they irriga

Are you familiar with the personal pronoun it? I hope so. Then, don't confuse it's with its. 

Yes, it's is a shortened form of 'it is' or  'it has' (a contraction), while its is the possesive of it. 

It may not be that easy to use them correctly, though - it's said that even native speakers confuse them. 

The possessive form of a noun has apostrope s ('s) added to it, e.g. Expector's, today's, but the possessive form of it is its (no apostrope).

Let's try to write a short paragraph or build a few se

There's an old saying that goes like this; all that glitters is not gold; meaning the attractive external appearance of something is not; repeat NOT a reliable indication of its true nature. I neither know nor care who created this fantasy art, but it's eerily accurate as a pictorial example for the aforementioned proverb. Don't get me wrong; I'm a live version of ''We got tonight, who needs tomorrow?''; but I mean, come on! Even I, with that "If I'm 'bout to go down, I'll go down swingin'" atti

Two men both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room. One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon. His bed was next the room’s only window. The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back. The men talked for hours. They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, where they had been on vacation etc...

Every afternoon, when the man on the bed by the window could sit

If you feel alone and sad

if you need someone to lean on
Just call and He is waiting

salvation is a never ending happiness

you need to accept Him
acknowledge Him to your life
He is yesterday,

I am a dancer. Yes I am, a theater performer to be exact, I have been performing for 6 months now and I know my bones are a bit mature for this latest routine I have embraced for these last months, but I’m loving the show every week.  I can still remember and it seems like yesterday, I was just another crowd to watch how those performers moved gracefully on stage.  Commonly, when I initiate to reveal this entertaining portion of my life, people tend to think naughty things, hahaha! I’m puzzled.
