Virtue as the Source of Benevolence
Righteousness is composed of good behavior. And sin is what you don't want people to know, despite the fact that it eats away at your heart (Muslim, Birr 14-15)

Mim: What is righteousness in your opinion?

Key Clicks in The City of Knowledge
  It must have been more exciting to spread letters out on dry cellulose rather than writing on papyrus… We are talking about an excitement in China of 2000 years ago at a time when writing was getting prepared to meet the paper.

Two Sides of the Scale
I saw from your answers to the question, "Where is the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in your lives," that my question activated your hearts before your minds.

From Istanbul To Abu Dhabi: The Never-Ending Echo of a Blessed B
From the birth of the first human until now millions of blessed births have echoed throughout the globe...Some have become lost among the four walls of their rooms, others have overcome the enormous towers of palaces. Whoever they are, a person's birth is a new beginning, yet every human has been injected with the seed of death. Most of the time the announcement of death from the minarets occ...

Sealed Time
Coaches presenting people with urgent prescriptions on how to live say, "We have neither the time nor opportunity to practice the trial and error method." Modern life opens living space only for individuals who endure the fast wheel of time and rise above standards.

To Be An Growing Link In a Shrinking World

The arrival of thousands of Muslims who had settled in America, coming originally from Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Somali, indeed, from every corner of the world, created this breeze.

Years ago, we would have asked ourselves a different question, wouldn't we? How much time do you spend in front of the television? That "magic box" invaded our entire life, taking over the pleasant conversations of the family gathering, taking us on adventures, taking us to countries we had never been, introducing us to people we never met.
