رمضان ramadan

Ramadan

This article is about the Islamic month. For the Islamic speaker, see Tariq Ramadan.

Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, during which Muslims fast or do not eat or drink during the daytime.

Overview

The date for the start of Ramadan is slightly different each year, depending on the position of the moon. Once Ramadan starts,Muslims should not eat or drink or have sexual activities between sunrise and sunset. This usually continues for thirty days, but sometimes twenty-nine days.

Fasting is supposed to teach Muslims about patience and spiritual things. It is a time for Muslims to think about how the poor and homeless suffer without lots of food, it helps Muslims to be more obedient, and less greedy. During Ramadan, Muslims ask to be forgiven for their sins, and they pray for help in stopping them from doing bad things. Muslims believe Ramadan is a month when God shows himself to humans, because it was the month in which the first verses of the Qur'an were revealed to the Prophet Muhammad. It was also the month in which the Annunciation of the birth of Jesus to the Virgin Mary took place.^{[Qur'an 2:185]}

Not everyone has to observe Ramadan. Children do not have to fast. They should start when they reach the age of puberty, so long as they are healthy. People who are travelling long distances do not have to fast. Pregnant women do not have to if they think it might harm their unborn baby. Sometimes sportsmen do not observe the fast. Sometimes there are disagreements about this. For example, the Olympic Games in 2012 will fall in the middle of the holy month. This will make it very difficult for the sportsmen if they cannot eat or drink during daytime.^[1]

When the sun goes down and it gets dark the Muslim people will start eating again (this is called "breaking the fast"). This meal is known as Iftar. There are often big meals enjoyed together by lots of Muslims. ^[2]. Sometimes markets open 

.after Iftar and stay open during the night

قصة عن صديق مجهول A story about an unknown person

A story about an unknown person For the first time in my life, I search on Skype to find a friend. I found a friend that does not Arabic or French of an anonymous name, completely unknown, but is known in my heart.

      The first word I spoke to her was, ''I am not a monster, why are you afraid?'' After that we started to speak. My friend likes music a lot, she was sweet of speech, and was very graceful, etc. After the deepening the relationship, she then gave me a postition in Gmail, and i did not have one, so I opened a site for her, day after day, smiling and laughing. We had smilar interests and smilar dislikes, and understands what I say. But my friend was absent for days, why do you say?

      No need to be alarmed, she married and went on a trip to England. And told me about great things, big and small. Once returned to America, she once told me something wonderful! What is it you ask? She will bear a child in March or April 2012. 

How exciting this news is... God willing, God will protect this child from any harm. Who wants to know about my friend, what she loves and what she's afraid of? ( The majority of people who would love to know is a high 80 percent).

 I'll start with what she loves: Music,animals, technology, nature, and of course fun. What she is afraid of: Falling from heights, mice, and clowns (don't laugh, my friend probably doesn't like it.

 I will give you some questions and answers between us 

Q: What are the traditional dishes you have, clothing, etc? 

 A: Well, we usually have big feasts every Sunday with all my family and on Saturdays we go downtown to do dumb things.We all have big parties for no reason every 2 weeks things like that.

 Q: I want you to tell me about your life, how is it?

 A: It is great, a very fun life, and I love life very much.

The Bottom Line :

 By this story, this is real and happened very much. Friendship: A true blessing from God, Friendship does not require riches, or the siliarities in language, customs, or traditions. Friendship is to talk and acquaintance and understand each other's views. To have a friend in need, to help also. The words are small, but carries a great deal of importance to each other. And friendship can last as long as there is love between the individuals. Now I will tell my friend always remember the promises we made to each other.

Beautiful story 

قصة جميلة

A long time ago, there was a huge apple tree.

في قديم الزمان ... كان هناك شجرة تفاح ضخمة ...

A little boy loved to come and play around it everyday.

و كان هناك طفل صغير يلعب حول هذه الشجرة كل يوم ..

He climbed to the treetop, ate the apples, took a nap under the shadow...

كان يتسلق أغصان الشجرة ويأكل من ثمارها ... ثم يغفو قليلا لينام في ظلها ...

He loved the tree and the tree loved to play with him.

كان يحب الشجرة وكانت الشجرة تحب أن تلعب معه ...

Time went by...the little boy had grown up,

مر الزمن... وكبر الطفل...

And he no longer played around the tree every day.

وأصبح لا يلعب حول الشجرة كل يوم...

One day, the boy came back to the tree and he looked sad.

في يوم من الأيام ... رجع الصبي وكان حزينا!

'Come and play with me,' the tree asked the boy.

فقالت له الشجرة: تعال والعب معي ...

'I am no longer a kid, I do not play around trees any more'

The boy replied.

فأجابها الولد: لم أعد صغيرا لألعب حولك...

'I want toys. I need money to buy them.'

أنا أريد بعض اللعب وأحتاج بعض النقود لشرائها...

'Sorry, but I do not have money...

فأجابته الشجرة: أنا لا يوجد معي نقود!!!

But you can pick all my apples and sell them.

So, you will have money.

ولكن يمكنك أن تأخذ كل التفاح الذي لدي لتبيعه ثم تحصل على النقود التي تريدها...

' The boy was so excited..

الولد كان سعيدا للغاية...

He grabbed all the apples on the tree and left happily.

فتسلق الشجرة وجمع كل ثمار التفاح التي عليها وغادر سعيدا ...

The boy never came back after he picked the apples.

لم يعد الولد بعدها ...

The tree was sad.

فأصبحت الشجرة حزينة ...

One day, the boy who now turned into a man returned

وذات يوم عاد الولد ولكنه أصبح رجلا...!!!

And the tree was excited 'Come and play with me' the tree said..

كانت الشجرة في منتهى السعادة لعودته وقالت له: تعال والعب معي....

'I do not have time to play. I have to work for my family.

ولكنه أجابها:

 لا يوجد وقت لدي للعب .. فقد أصبحت رجلا مسئولا عن عائلة...

We need a house for shelter.

ونحتاج لبيت يأوينا...

Can you help me?

هل يمكنك مساعدتي ؟

' Sorry',

آسفة!!

I do not have any house. But you can chop off my branches

To build your house.

فأنا ليس عندي بيت ولكن يمكنك أن تأخذ جميع أغصاني لتبني بها بيتا لك...

' So the man cut all the branches of the tree and left happily.

فأخذ الرجل كل الأغصان وغادر وهو سعيد...

The tree was glad to see him happy but the man never came back since then.

كانت الشجرة مسرورة لرؤيته سعيدا... لكن الرجل لم يعد إليها ...

The tree was again lonely and sad.

فأصبحت الشجرة وحيدة و حزينة مرة أخرى....

One hot summer day,

وفي يوم حار من أيام الصيف....

The man returned and the tree was delighted.

عاد الرجل.. وكانت الشجرة في منتهى السعادة..

 'Come and play with me!'

The tree said...

فقالت له الشجرة: تعال والعب معي...

'I am getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself.

فقال لها الرجل لقد تقدمت في السن.. وأريد أن أبحر لأي مكان لأرتاح...

'Can you give me a boat?'

 'Said the man'.

فقال لها الرجل: هل يمكنك إعطائي مركبا..

'Use my trunk to build your boat.

You can sail far away and be happy.

فأجابته: خذ جذعي لبناء مركب... وبعدها يمكنك أن تبحر به بعيدا ... وتكون سعيدا...

' So the man cut the tree trunk to make a boat.

فقطع الرجل جذع الشجرة وصنع مركبا!!

He went sailing and never showed up for a long time.

فسافر مبحرا ولم يعد لمدة طويلة..

Finally, the man returned after many years.

أخيرا عاد الرجل بعد غياب طويل .......

'Sorry, my boy. But I do not have anything for you anymore.

ولكن الشجرة قالت له: آسفة يا بني.... لم يعد عندي أي شئ أعطيه لك..

No more apples for you....

' The tree said'.

وقالت له: لا يوجد تفاح...

'No problem, I do not have any teeth to bite

' The man replied.

قال لها: لا عليك لم يعد عندي أي أسنان لأقضمها بها...

 'No more trunk for you to climb on'

لم يعد عندي جذع لتتسلقه..

'I am too old for that now' the man said.

فأجابها الرجل لقد أصبحت عجوزا ولا أستطيع القيام بذلك!!

'I really cannot give you anything...

قالت: أنا فعلا لا يوجد لدي ما أعطيه لك...

The only thing left is my dying root,'

The tree said with tears..

قالت وهي تبكي.. كل ما تبقى لدي جذور ميتة... 

'I do not need much now, just a place to rest.

فأجابها: كل ما أحتاجه الآن هو مكان لأستريح فيه..

I am tired after all these years' the man replied.

فأنا متعب بعد كل هذه السنين...

 'Good! Old tree roots are the best place to lean on and rest,

فأجابته: جذور الشجرة العجوز هي أنسب مكان لك للراحة...

Come, come sit down with me and rest.

تعال ... تعال واجلس معي لتستريح ...

' The man sat down and the tree was glad and smiled with tears...

جلس الرجل إليها.. كانت الشجرة سعيدة.. تبسمت والدموع تملأ عينيها....

This is you and the tree is your parents!!!

هل تعرف من هي هذه الشجرة؟

إنها أبويك!!
