Algiran

 

2-                Algiran is to combine both Umrah and Hajj. Meaning to say, when you make the intention at migat, you say,       ( labayka Allahuma Umrah wa Hajjah ), it means, oh Allah I am answering your call for Umrah and Hajj.  In this type of Hajj, the pilgrim does not take off his Ihram after he finishes Saai.  Saai  is performed once because of the intention of the combination. Here, the pilgrim must also make hady as a sacrifice. If the is not able to sacrifice an animal, he can fast t

Altamattu

There are three types of performing Hajj.

1-      Atamattu

2-     Algiran

3-     Alifrad

Atamattu  is to perform umrah during the months of Hajj. And when Hajj is due, its rituals must be performed.  Almutamtii (the pilgrim who performs atamattu) must sacrifice a sheep. The same rituals are done in both Hajj and umrah, but the main difference is, standing on  mount  Arafa. Standing on Arafa is the main corner of Hajj. ((Hajj is Arafa)) according to hadeeth of the Prophet Mohammed, (peace and blessin

I fell in love with photography

I fell in love with photography some months ago and as a devoted amateur, who knows nothing but wants everything, I decided to purchase a digital SLR camera to make my dream come true. It took me a lot of effort and energy to persuade my husband, that it is the best investment ever... but eventually believe it or not - I succeeded!

I bought my new love Nikon and started studying about photography. Yes, guys it wasn't as easy as I expected and I had to even understand physics – to be specific opti

Just a Poem

 

We may not be perfect but we know that we could

                                         At least try

To fix the words unsaid half phrases misunderstood

                        And then we cry….

We may not be happy but we know we would

                   If no one ever die

 And dreams would let us fly

and music makes us dance

and then we  touch the sense

Untouchable, unknown

The words and thoughts not shown

Feel damned and cursed and then

Remember words and thoughts

                    And know

We could be h

This Ain't Just a Blog

Have you heard or read the word 'ain't'? This topic has been troublesome to English learners.

What is ain't?

The word ain't (informal) pronounced as /'eɪnt/, is a conjugation of 'be' (am, is, are) or has and have verbs + not. So those verbs are written as /am not/is not/are not/ has not/ have not/.

The common informal saying is "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". It basically means that you don't have to do something or modify it if there's nothing wrong with it. This word originated in Brita

Month of The Independence

Hi, everybody. This month we celebrate The Day of The Independence of my country that is 09/15/1821. During this month there are a lot of cultural activities. I live in a small town near the city and every year, one day before the main date, people go to another city. This trip is very fun. Last year I went with my brother's school. Usually schools go to attractive places in my country like beaches, aquatic parks, and tourist attractions. We went to an aquatic park outside  of the city near the

A Sweet Little Love Story!!

ONCE UPON A TIME THERE WAS 'US';

We met, we smiled, we laughed, we shared, we cried, we fought, we loved, we struggled and one day we separated, but our hearts never stopped beating for each other. We struggled, we loved, we fought, we shared, we laughed, we smiled, we met; just became the part of our memory and we cried, but all we could do was sacrifice, compromise on our feelings.

P.S; I wrote this story maybe a few years ago, when I came across a movie (I don't remember the name of the movie I

The lizard suffered a blizzard

Tom and his wife Carol were shovelling snow in the garden.

Last night's blizzard had brought heavy snow and the garden turned into a white wonderland. The couple knew the blizzard was looming the previous day, but they apparently didn't think it could be such an appalling blizzard.

Tom was a gardening buff and was really adept at it. He had the knack of keeping a garden charming and even kept a shack in his backyard to facilitate the gardening. He kept adopting new approaches. In the summer, his l

When to say "I love you."

It has been said that love is blind. For me, love is not blind, but we sometimes become blind when fall in love. We usually have been hearing lots of stories of true love. In some story we got the parents in a position of villain in others, we got the society as obstacles. We always want that the love will win the battle and uphold its dignity. But did love always deserve win? Aren’t we experiencing lots of cases where a true love (which seems true) becomes a burden after marriage? Does it reall

"The war has stolen my Summer "

Our generation, until recently, could hear about the war from the stories of grandparents only. But all of a sudden, we saw it with our own eyes. The war The takes away life of soldier  and in the children - childhood. They would run on green lawns, enjoy the sun and life. Instead, they hide in cellars rotten and do not know whether they will survive until tomorrow. This poem of a young schoolgirl is dedicated to all the children of an undeclared war.

Story of his life. Last page. 1

Yes, life happened and this is happened as well.  Now I am staying here, to accompany my friend to the last journey, where he found his last asylum.

And here, staying over his grave, I don’t have much to say about my old friend.
