We are living in a world of uncertainty and misconceptions. Man is beginning to question the very roots of his beliefs regarding Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi wa Aalihi wa Sallam, to create doubt in the minds of the simple and unsuspecting Muslims.

For example, letter "S" - "I am very happy today. I woke up and realized that I have won 1 million dollar lottery", but of course, such letters like "S, X, Q, Z..." are very easy, so you can take any harder one.

Letter "E" - "I am happy today, after I got up I saw on TV that I won 1 million dollar on bingo 

The burning question is, "What do you think is the best section on EC that has made your English learning improved? Why?"

Like some of you may had known or gauged that I'm an old member of EC. I stumbled upon EC when I was in South Korea for three months way back in 2006. I became like the prodigal daughter of EC somewhat when I left it for a few times but always came back like a bad penny. If I had to answer this question during my previous life in EC, the answer would be different.

One day the engine of a propeller plane which was flown by a famous test pilot stopped during a flight. He managed to land on the ground and searched for the cause. Then he knew that a mechanic had poured incorrect fuel into the propeller plane.

While every language is like a river which propagates on them self, make their own way and expand in dialects and vocabulary on the course of development.  Like all rivers which are destined to meet an ocean/sea some day, languages serve the common goal (destined) of communication of ideas as their final

Narrated Sayyiduna Anas Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhu: Allah’s Apostle SallAllaho Alaihi wa Aalihi wa Sallam ascended the (mountain) of Uhud with Sayyiduna Abu Bakr as-Siddiq, Sayyiduna Umar al-Farooq and Sayyiduna ‘Uthman al-Ghani Radi Allahu Anhum Ajma'een and it shook.

Hi,

Yesterday,  I read & watched Steve Jobs's speeches with a huge admiration.

(one more time watched it since my last review last year )

He was asking " What is truly important ? "

it made an impression on me and of course his story touched me like other people.

If you would be isolated in an island with 3 EC members, Who would these 3 members be? Why them?

My answer:

The first one would be Mr. Josef. As we know, he is a VIP, the founder of EC, the most famous website for learners of English, so when he is absent in his work, English learners from all over the world try their best to find him, soon they learn that he isn't in any country and must be in an island, after they find him, I can be rescued from that island, too. :D

The second person would be Set
