    i drunk the brown coffee from your brown eyes
    between the golden grain-farms
    & windmill houses
    with the some poor coins only
    in my pocket

    THE NOEL DAYBREAK

    1
    - WITH NO WATER NO SUN
    HOW TO LEARN
    FROM WHOM TO LEARN
    BUDDING?
    NOW THE NIGHT SKY IS GLOOMY
    THE UPROAR OF SILENCE
    SAT ON THE FINE CLOUD
    SOME PASSED – BY PASS:
    WITH SQUEEZED EYES OF COLD
    WITH THEIR FAST PACE
    IN THOSE PURE DARKNESSES
    AWAY FROM THIS WHILE LAND
    IN A SOLITUDE CORNER OF THE CITY
    A BEAUTIFUL LITTLE GIRL
    SAT ALONE
    WITH HER POEMS GENTLE HANDS
    COVERED HER BLUE INNONCED EYES.
    VERY FAR FROM HER
    SOME BOYS
    BAREFOOTS & POOR HANDS
    ARE IN SEARCH OF A FRIEND
    A FRIEND WITH BLUE INNONCENT EYES.
    2
    I SAID: YOU! WITH YOUR LOOK
    GIVE SUCH A NIGHT
    A GOOD NEWS OF GROWING GREEN DOWN.
    (SHE KISSED MY LITTLE FORE HEAD)
    I ASKED: WHERE`S A BIRD? !
    I FEEL THE NEW NOEL SMELLS
    BUT THE FLOWER OF THE MOON IS RED & WEARY!
    (AS CRYING EMBRACED ME FIRMLY.)
    I SAID: OH! MY MOTHER
    WITH NO WATER NO SUN
    HOW TO LEARN
    FROM WHOM TO LEARN
    BUDDING?
    (HER SMILES
    A COMPLETE RESPONSE TO ME.)
    I SAID: A ANNUCIATORY !
    TO YOU O` SAD BRIDE OF SKY:
    THE MORN WAS DAWNED .

    I visited the Middle East with my ex-husband and his family. I took an extensive Arabic language course at the British Institute in Jordan. Great course filled with people from all over the world. I loved the course and being able to speak to my family.

    Unfortunately, over the last few years, I have forgotten much of the language. Use all your opportunities to speak Arabic to reinforce what you've learned. Enjoy!

    Best,
    Jennifer

    الى كل مخلص
    بينما النبي صلى الله عليه واله وسلم في الطواف إذا سمع اعرابياً
    يقول: يا كريم

    فقال النبي خلفه: يا كريم

    فمضى الاعرابي الى جهة الميزاب وقال: يا كريم

    فقال النبي خلفه : يا كريم



    فالتفت الاعرابي الى النبي وقال: يا صبيح الوجه, يا رشيق القد ,
    اتهزأ
    بي لكوني اعرابياً؟
    والله لولا صباحة وجهك ورشاقة قدك لشكوتك الى حبيبي محمد صلى الله
    عليه واله وسلم

    فتبسم النبي وقال: اما تعرف نبيك يا اخا العرب؟

    قال الاعرابي : لا

    قال النبي : فما ايمانك به؟

    قال : اّمنت بنبوته ولم اره وصدقت برسالته ولم القه

    قال النبي : يا أعرابي , اعلم أني نبيك في الدنيا وشفيعك في الاخرة

    فأقبل الاعرابي يقبل يد النبي صلى الله عليه واله وسلم



    فقال النبي:
    مه يا اخا العرب

    لا تفعل بي كما تفعل الاعاجم بملوكها, فإن الله سبحانه وتعالى
    بعثني
    لا متكبراً ولا متجبراً, بل بعثني بالحق بشيراً ونذيراً

    فهبط جبريل على النبي وقال له: يا
    محمد. السلام يقرئك
    السلام ويخصك
    بالتحية والاكرام, ويقول لك : قل للاعرابي ,

    لا يغرنه حلمنا ولا كرمنا,فغداً نحاسبه على القليل والكثير,
    والفتيل
    والقطمير

    فقال الاعرابي: او يحاسبني ربي يا رسول الله؟

    قال : نعم يحاسبك إن شاء

    فقال الاعرابي: وعزته وجلاله, إن حاسبني لأحاسبنه

    فقال النبي صلى الله عليه واله وسلم : وعلى ماذا تحاسب ربك يا اخا
    العرب ?

    قال الاعرابي : إن حاسبني ربي على ذنبي حاسبته على مغفرته, وإن
    حاسبني
    على معصيتي
    حاسبته على
    عفوه ,

    وإن حاسبني على بخلي حاسبته على كرمه

    فبكى النبي حتى إبتلت لحيته

    فهبط جبريل على النبي

    وقال : يا محمد, السلام يقرئك السلام , ويقول
    لك
    : يا محمد قلل من بكائك فقد الهيت حملة العرش عن تسبيحهم

    وقل لأخيك الاعرابي لا يحاسبنا ولا نحاسبه فإنه رفيقك في الجنة

    اللهم إغفر لكل من نقـلها ونشرها ووالديه ولا تحرمهم الأجـر يا
    كريم

    اللهم صل على محمد وآل محمد
    اللهم صل على محمد وآل محمد
    اللهم صل على محمد وآل محمد
    اللهم صل على محمد وآل محمد
    اللهم صل على محمد وآل محمد
    اللهم صل على محمد وآل محمد
    اللهم صل على محمد وآل محمد
    اللهم صل على محمد وآل محمد
    اللهم صل على محمد وآل محمد

    انشرها عسى الله
    يفرج همك

    دعاء فك الكرب

    لا اله الا الله الحليم الكريم لا اله الا الله العلى العظيم لا
    اله
    الا الله رب السماوات السبع ورب العرش العظيم

    اذا كان نشرها سيرهقك فلا تنشرها فلن تستحق اخذ ثوابها لان ثوابها
    عظيم

    No wealth is more useful than intelligence and wisdom; no solitude is more horrible than when people avoid you on account of your vanity and conceit or when you wrongly consider yourself above everybody to confide and consult; no eminence is more exalting than piety; no companion can prove more useful than politeness; no heritage is better than culture; no leader is superior to Divine Guidance; no deal is more profitable than good deeds; no profit is greater than Divine Reward; no abstinence is better than to restrain one's mind from doubts (about religion); no virtue is better than refraining from prohibited deeds; no knowledge is superior to deep thinking and prudence; no worship or prayers are more sacred than fulfillment of obligations and duties, no religious faith is loftier than feeling ashamed of doing wrong and bearing calamities patiently; no eminence is greater than to adopt humbleness; no exaltation is superior to knowledge; nothing is more respectable than forgiveness and forbear- ance; no support and defense are stronger than consultation. Imam Ali (a.s.)

    Tell Congress: My America Doesn't Torture

    The shameful experiences of Abu Ghraib, Guantanamo Bay, and
    extraordinary renditions have placed Bush-era America next to the
    Nazi Gestapo, Soviet gulags, and Khmer Rouge as the worst torturers
    of the last hundred years.

    It's time to take a stand against something so plainly and obviously
    evil. We must ensure that no Administration – present or future –
    allow torture to disgrace us again.

    Urge your representative to co-sponsor and promote the American Anti-
    Torture Act today!
