By Harun Yahya Turkish Muslim Thinker One of the Qur'an's most important attributes is that it reached us in the very form in which it was revealed to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). Allah promised to protect it: (We have sent down the Reminder, and We will preserve it) (Al-Hijr 15:9). The divine scriptures that were revealed before Islam lost their original forms over time; they are either incomplete or not fully accurate. In the case of the Qur'an, however, Allah placed the revelations into our Pr... Read More
June 19, 2007 at 12:04pmWonderful! That is an excellent subject to reinforce knowledge.
June 19, 2007 at 10:27amActually, we were studying Fiqh al Sirah and how the prophet's sunnah was protected because of its unique relationship to the qur'an. As far as the protection of the quran, we ...
June 17, 2007 at 4:09amAllah wakbar. His words are wonderful. Peace, what are the points you studied? Are they the historical, qu'ranic ones or a mixture of both?

?The human being asks, ?After I die, will I be brought back to life??

J'ai eu la chance de pouvoir regarder ce film : Rachid Bouchareb's powerful pedagogical film chronicles the journey of four North African soldiers who join the French army to help liberate France from Nazi occupation during World War II. Re-creating a chapter largely erased from the pages of history, the film -- which got an Oscar nod for Best Foreign Language Film and won the 2006 Cannes Film Festival Best Actor award for its ensemble cast -- pays overdue tribute to the heroism of these forgotten troops. ...

Origami was developed in China. - It was then carried on to Japan where it was further developed, and from where the art form derives its name ("oru" = fold + "kami" = paper). - Traditionally, square paper was used for Origami, but certain shapes are now made using rectangles and even dollar bills or other currency notes. Origami can be easy. You too can make an Origami Cat in 10 steps! dead easy :) Source www.islamonline.net. Read More

Alberto Cruz The United States' new strategy in Lebanon A time-worn adage in journalism says that redundancy enables a better understanding of language, so here we go again : the tree of Iraq stops us seeing the Middle East wood. Absorbed in our navel-gazing, we behave like children covering our ears to stave off a reality we find distasteful. That happens in Iraq when we refuse to acknowledge that there are more variables than are apparent when trying to pin down what is happening in that country and it a... Read More

Jeffrey St. Clair Israel's Attack on the USS Liberty, Revisited In early June of 1967, at the onset of the Six Day War, the Pentagon sent the USS Liberty from Spain into international waters off the coast of Gaza to monitor the progress of Israel's attack on the Arab states. The Liberty was a lightly armed surveillance ship. Only hours after the Liberty arrived it was spotted by the Israeli military. The IDF sent out reconnaissance planes to identify the ship. They made eight trips over a period of thre... Read More
June 13, 2007 at 12:55pmIn January 1968, the arms embargo on Israel was lifted and the sale of American weapons began to flow. By 1971, Israel was buying $600 million of American-made weapons a year. T...
June 13, 2007 at 12:55pmThe bigger question is why the US government would participate so enthusiastically in the cover-up of a war crime against its own sailors. Well, the Pentagon has never been slow...
June 13, 2007 at 12:54pmThere's another factor. The Liberty was positioned just off the coast from the town of El Arish. In fact, Ennes and others had used the town's mosque tower to fix the location o...

Robert Fisk Believe It or Not in the Middle East When I was a schoolboy, I loved a column which regularly appeared in British papers called "Ripley's Believe It or Not!". In a single rectangular box filled with naively drawn illustrations, Ripley - Bob Ripley - would try to astonish his readers with amazing facts: "Believe It or Not, in California, an entire museum is dedicated to candy dispensers ... Believe It or Not, a County Kerry man possesses an orange that is 25 years old ... Believe It or No... Read More

Hezbollah issued a statement on Wednesday criticizing the so-called democracy of the February 14 bloc. The statement said, "For a journalist to be summoned with a subpoena before the judge is an insult for the (Lebanese) judiciary before being a violation of the press." It added, "Being the politician, judge and the executioner at the same time is the democracy, principles and the culture of the February 14 bloc: the democracy of intellectual terrorism, intimidation, exploitation of power and authority, bu...
