The Glib Muslim World

As a believer and trying each day to practice my faith , I will say this with a heavy heart and a disappointed sigh that the muslim world is not devoid of racism and hatred , xenophobia is spread like wildlife on lands where they took refugees. We might preach others , claim to be the custodian of high values or recite verses of Quran, proving our religious-ness, and quoting sayings of the Prophet PBUH, but the amount of hatred, prejudice, materialism that has crawled inside of us through conspicuous nationalism and the idea of identification based on our cultures and the colours of our skin is appalling.Actions speaks louder than words.

One can deny as much they want , but we are not the saints as we claim to be. One can hear the so called muslims swearing on the highest name of the creator of heaven and earth, and lying and spewing hatred right away with the same mouth.Unfortunately worldly desires,success and materialism is the only God left for many.Furthermore ,we want to create such an unachievable image of piety and religiousness , regardless of our own weaknesses , we expect to see the Sufi (saint) garbed in monks and nuns attires , an unattainable expectation from our ownselves and those around us. We have set our own standards of calculating others devotion to their faith.

We refuse to realise that our negativity and lack of knowledge regarding our religion is pushing people towards disbelief. As the youth is looking up to the elders ,following their examples, and all they can witness is extremism, lack of acceptance, if you are slightly different from others , you’re considered a persona non grata.Another irony is when the self appointed “saint muslims” point fingers at nonbelievers and their Injustices ,trying to blame others ,regardless of our shallow practices. The non Muslim west dislike us or treat us wrongly due to their ignorance,in present times they are brainwashed by the media and their politicians, how can we blame them ? When we are doing worst to each other. Travel from one part of eastern Muslim lands to another and if the colour of your skin, language, ethnicity or the way you offer prayer is different for them they’ll make you feel unwelcomed swiftly , at the rate of knots.

The Magical Beans Of Al Mokha In Yemen

There are a huge number of people in every corner of the world who are addicted to coffee, from opening their eyes and crawling out of bed for a hot cuppa to drinking this beverage whole day till they hit the sack again .The legend has it that the magical beans were discovered by the Sufi mystics in the vibrant and warm land of Yemen. A l-Mukha or Mocha and المُخا in Arabic , is a port city on the Red Sea coast of Yemen , it is considered the house of coffee, the name Mokha which later got fame as Mocha aswell is named after this historically rich city of Yemen.Today there are many who claim the monopoly on this dark brew , but it is said that it was the Yemenies or land of Yemen who introduced coffee beans to the world, when the magical beans left the shores of Yemen, the Ottomans taught the Europeans how to make and drink coffee and later when their colonialism started to spread, so does their interest in the magical beans ,...

Change The Way They Look At You

Life is always developing, growing and evolving, from human bodies to their internal growth it’s a journey, where almost nothing is static , when we are little we might have held a certain toy tigher to ourselves, after few years we completely ignore it like it was worthless , or during our teens the activities and adventures we try despite all the opposition & disapproval for that certain thing ,but we still eagerly try it ,because at that time it seems the most exciting thing to us, though after few years when we look back it seems utterly foolish , a lover, for whom we might be willing to die for cried rivers and buckets of tears, missed many heart beats in our twenties, turns into out most awaful crush of the past when we are more mature and get some perspective on life, we laugh at those times of childishness. It’s not just an individual going through this process of change but everyone around that individual has their opinions develop...
