Has anyone had a chance to read this book. I ordered it from amazon.com. I have read through a few chapters and I really enjoyed reading it. Although I am more a critical reader, so there are parts that I would like the author to elaborate on, perhaps in a future edition. Anyone care to share their thoughts? www.amazon.com n=283155

Our life is like a canvas and every relationship like the strokes of a paintbrush leaves its unique shades on it. A collage of vivid images is what we carry. However, at times, we need to wipe out the greys and bloody reds, put a coat of white all over and start afresh. It might happen a couple of times and if it does, the opaqueness is lost and the darker shades start surfacing. The question is..how many coats of white can a life take?
December 5, 2005 at 3:42pmWhen we stop painting, we stop living. Yes we get tired, but those who have true faith, who truly believe and rely on their Lord, are able to pick up that paintbrush after e...

I was talking to somone I met on naseeb and the subject came to the past weekend. I told him I saw harry potter twice with my little sisters and that I've read all the books. He almost freaked out at the thought that someone who is 24 would be into harry potter... I was very upset about this... Looking in this village I don't think I'm too old and c'me on, everyone can use some magic here and there...

Enjoy the read... Taken from www.alislam.org "Arrogance is an affliction that constantly affects man. Keep in mind that arrogance comes from Satan and converts an arrogant one into Satan. Until a person turns wholly away from the path of arrogance he is not enabled to accept the truth and does not become worthy of receiving Divine grace, inasmuch as arrogance bars his way. So shun every type of arrogance, whether generated by learning, wealth, status, caste, fa... Read More

Have you ever read something that was notorious enough to get banned, only to be disappointed by its major lack of substance? Apart from obvious examples like "The Satanic Verses", which banned books blatantly fail to live up to the hype? For me, it had to be Wei Hui's semi-autobiographical novel "Shanghai Baby." Banned and publically burned by the Chinese Communist Government for its "decadent" content, even occasional snippets of engaging prose couldn't save this one. You couldn't find a more trite and p...

salams I will share something I found in a cookbook I got on Afgan recipes. They got some good food over there:) I have been making all the stews for the past week. The ingredients are similiar in each, it may be just a different filling or add something new and make a totally different stew. I, myself, ahve been using chicken though because in my area chicken is cheaper than ground beef or ground lamb. Kachaloo Quarma (beef and potato stew) 1/4 c. oil 1 onion, chopped 1/2 lb. beef or lamb meat (cut... Read More
December 12, 2005 at 5:10pmyeah it is. That's what I'm noticing about the eastern foods...very filling no matter how simple they are;)
December 8, 2005 at 4:25pmMaybe, maybe not. In my case, it seems it takes longer for potatoes to get soft than the maet to boil and cook up. But I'm sure you could do it any way. (ok now if there are a...
