Anger is a condition in which
the tongue works faster than the mind.

You can"t change the past,
but you can ruin the present
by worrying over the future.

Love...and you shall be loved.

All people smile in the same language.

Everyone needs to be loved...

especially when they do not deserve it.

The real measure of a man"s wealth
is what he has invested in eternity.

Laughter is God"s sunshine.

Everyone has beauty
but not everyone sees it.

It"s important for parents to live
the same things they teach.

Thank God for what you have,
TRUST GOD for what you need.

If you fill your heart with regrets of yesterday
and the worries of tomorrow,
you have no today to be thankful for.

Man looks at outward appearance
but the Lord looks within.

The choice you make today
will usually affect tomorrow.

 Take time to laugh, for it is
the music of the soul.

If anyone speaks badly of you,
live so none will believe it.

Love is strengthened by working
through conflicts together.

The best thing parents can do
for their children is to love each other.

Harsh words break no bones
but they do break hearts.

To get out of a difficulty,
one usually must go through it.


We take for granted the things
that we should be giving thanks for.

Love is the only thing that can be
divided without being diminished.

Happiness is enhanced by others
but does not depend upon others.

For every minute you are angry with someone,
you lose 60 seconds of happiness
that you can never get back.

Do what you can, for who you can,
with what you have, and where you are.

Our duty in this world is to help others by showing them their roses and not their thorns. Only then can we achieve the love we should feel for each other; only then can we bloom in our own garden.

Noble Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny). He has said:

“My Ummah consists of four groups:

1. One group offers the prayers, however yet are unmindful of their prayers, and they shall be placed in ‘Wayl’. ‘Wayl’ is the name of one of the bottom-most levels of hell. Allah has said:

“So woe to the praying ones, who are unmindful of their prayers.”[3]

2. One group is such that it occasionally offers the prayers, and so, ‘Ghayy’ is the abode for the people of this group. ‘Ghayy’ is the name of another of the bottom-most levels of hell. Allah has said:

“But there came after them an evil generation, who neglected prayers and followed the sensual desires, so they will meet perdition.” [4]

3. The third group consists of those, who never offer their prayers, and for them is ‘Saqar’, which is also the name of another of the low levels of hell and about which Allah has said: “(The inmates of paradise shall ask the inmates of hell) What has brought you into hell? They shall say: We were not of those who prayed.”[5]

4. The fourth group consists of those, who offer their prayers regularly and are humble in them. Allah has said: “Successful indeed are the believers, Who are humble in their prayers.”[6] and [7]

We pray to Allah (Glory and Greatness to Him) that He decrees all of us to be of the fourth group.

Imam Baqir (a.s) said: "The true followers of Imam Ali (a.s) are those who donate from their wealth to each other due to our friendship; become friends with each other due to our friendship; do not act oppressively if they get angry; do not waste things when they are pleased. They are blessings for their neighbors; and are a source of comfort and convenience for their associates."
Taunting By Satans And Wihtholding Of Weeping By Hell Dwellers

Even Satans (devils) will taunt people of hell and they will make a mockery of them. It is mentioned that the sinners will not weap and cry and complain loudly for fear of being mocked by devils. Says the Lord: “When the hell dwellers will be dealt with and when they willl reach their destination in hell Satan will tell them: Verily, God had given you a true promise.

I had also given you a promise but it was false. Yet I had no binding pwer over you. Of course, I dropped a doubt in your hearts and you, wrongly using your freedom, believed in my false promise. So, now, do not scold me but scold your ownselves. Today neither I can help you nor you can assist me. I am fed up with you now, as you made me a partner of God in the world. Doubtlessly a painful chastisement is fixed for the unjust oppressors.” (Surah Ibrahim 14: 22)

You Too Found It True What Was Promised To You

The people of paradise will also scold the hell dwellers. In Surah A'raaf: 44, God Almighty says: “The people of paradise will give a call to the hell-dwellers and say: We have got all the things promised to us by our Lord. Did you also get the punishments about which you were warned by your Lord? They will say: Yes, we have received those chastisements. Then an announcer will arrive to annonce: Curse of God on the unjust oppressors.”

God says: Fal Yawma…Yaz Hakoon (Surah Mutaffifeen: 34) meaning: Doubtlessly, today the Momineen (faithful) will laugh over the Kuffar (unbelievers) and make them targets of mockery and humiliation. It will be an answer to what the deniers were doing to the believers in the world.

Low White Blood Cell Count Treatment

The bodily fluid flowing through the body carrying necessary substances like oxygen and nutrients is called blood. Blood consists of different types of cells like erythrocytes (red blood cells), leukocytes (white blood cells) and thrombocytes (plasma). If you measure by volume, whole blood consists of 45% red blood cells, 54.3% of plasma, and only 0.7% of white blood cells. As you can see, the white blood cells are much less than the red blood cells. The ratio of white blood cells compared to red blood cells is 1:700. A high white blood cell count indicates an infection. Lymphocytes, monocytes and granulocytes are types of white blood cells that help protecting the body from infections. There can be times when the body suffers from low white blood cell count. This condition is called as leukopenia. What are the low white blood cell count causes? Is there a low white blood cell count treatment? These and many other questions related to this condition are discussed below. You can also read more on what is leukopenia.

Low White Blood Cell Count Causes
Before we move on to low white blood cell count, it is important to understand the causes. White blood cells are defenders of our body against harmful invaders like microorganisms. There are different types of white blood cells that have a particular function in defending the body. Under normal conditions, the immune system is at rest. A few white blood cells keep patrolling around the body to keep infections under check. The minute an infection is spotted, the number of white blood cells in the body is increased. However, there are times when one suffers from leukopenia or low white blood cell count.

There are different conditions like HIV infection, medications as well as chemotherapy that causes leukopenia. Aplastic anemia, autoimmune diseases, liver diseases, spleen disorders, vitamin and mineral deficiency, viral infections, etc., can lead to low white blood cell count. Medications like immunosuppressive drugs also lead to leukopenia. Bone marrow cancer may also reduce WBC count. Sometimes, for unknown reasons (idiopathic) one may develop low white blood cell count.

Low White Blood Cell Count Symptoms
The low white blood cell count symptoms include susceptibility to infections. One develops fever, anemia, hot flashes, fatigue, chills, irritability, etc. Some people develop localized swelling due to blood accumulation (hematoma). Gastrointestinal infections as well as urinary tract infections are common symptoms. Other symptoms include diarrhea, stomach cramps, canker sore, sore throat, headache, rectal bleeding, etc. People may have pain and burning sensation while urinating. Let us now move on to the treatment for a low white blood cell count.

Treatment for a Low White Blood Cell Count
Medications are prescribed by the doctor for treating low white blood cell count. These medications contain 'growth factors' and cytoines that help in increasing white blood cell production. The most common drugs prescribed for treating low white blood cell count are figrastim and pegfilgrastim. Filgrastim is given in the form of daily injections. Pegfilgrastim is given as a single dose injection. There are side effects associated with these medications used as a treatment for a low white blood cell count. They include fever, chills, and bone pain. Itchiness and redness at the site of injection also occurs. Leukopenia treatment in some extremely rare cases includes blood transfusion. Those who are on chemotherapy are asked to delay their treatment to help their blood count rise up. Other than this low white blood cell count treatment, one needs to take a few precautions.

People with low white blood cell count need to follow a balanced diet. They need to provide their body with all the vitamins and nutrients that help the body heal. Leukopenia treatment gets a boost when the body has sufficient vitamins and minerals that help in making the immune system strong. As one has low white blood count, it is very important to avoid injury. Even a slight cut or scrape may lead to serious infections. Be careful while brushing teeth, shaving, and even blowing the nose. A slight injury may lead to a major infection. Avoid visiting crowed places or traveling by public transport. As the immune system is weak, one is very susceptible to different infections one may encounter in a crowded place. Stay away from children or people who have been recently vaccinated.

This was some information related to low white blood cell count treatment. Growth factors administered by injection are the most important part of treatment for low white blood cell count. Follow a healthy diet and take plenty of rest to help restore your blood count. Speak to your doctor and follow his orders related to leukopenia treatment.

Profitable Internet Home Business Ideas

I am sure it is just not me that has signed up for affiliate programs and never heard a word or received an email from my sponsor. This is surely one way of not only leaving money on the table but also leaving new recruits feeling all alone and unwelcome and must certainly contribute to the high number of people who never earn an income online or build a profitable internet home business.

Your time need be the only thing required to help others by explaining to them what you do to earn an income online as all communication can be done by email. You could set up a series of training emails in your auto-responder, detailing exactly the steps you have taken to get where you are, or have a section on your profitable internet home business website dedicated to helping your new recruits.

Although lot of the programs do reveal who your sponsor is and ways of contacting them, others don’t and so it is a good idea to always send a welcome email to a new recruit letting them know you are their sponsor and that they are welcome to contact you with any queries or questions.

Confidence may be lacking with new sponsors who may feel they do not know enough about the business to help a new recruit and therefore rather ignore them and omit to send a welcome email at all. One of the best ways to learn and gain confidence is by teaching others and this in a way will actually accelerate your own profitable internet home business and online income.

Lots of new recruits will not even respond to your welcome email and choose to go it alone, but at least you have made the effort to contact them and offer your assistance if they need it.

There will be others will be thrilled and reassured to hear from you and take you up on your offer of assistance and be more than willing to implement the internet marketing strategies that are working for you and start earning their own income online. It is through these people that your online income will increase.

A few people, although thankful for all your help, fail to get into action and actually do the work required, and you will be the first person they contact to complain bitterly that they are not earning an income online, what a useless sponsor you are and that the whole internet home business is a scam! The few people who react like this should not even worry you if you have done your best in trying to help them.

Being the best sponsor you will pay off handsomely, because you will benefit from helping those that run with your suggestions and start earning an income online with their own profitable internet home business.

You may on occasion receive some difficult questions from new recruits, but this encourages you to spend some time finding out more about the program and increases your knowledge which will certainly benefit you as well.

There are usually Forums available where you can always post the question that you are unable to answer and more often than not you will receive a response from those who have more experience and knowledge. Your knowledge will now certainly have increased and you will be able to respond to your new recruit in a positive constructive way.

Dedicating time to welcome and help new members that you recruit will certainly pay big dividends in the form of helping others earn an income online instead of quitting and at the same time growing your own profitable internet home business.

Merchant Accounts for Small Businesses

A small business merchant account may be just what your company needs to edge out the competition. If your customer base is growing or they are asking increasingly for credit payment options as well as for information about your products and services, a merchant account can answer their questions and help to grow your business while leaving your competitors in the dust.

It is easy to apply for a small business merchant account. Just find a merchant account provider, which you can do by searching the Internet using relevant key terms. Browse the many sites offering this special type of commercial status before choosing one. Terms and fees vary a great deal, so you want to become knowledgeable about your choices before signing the contract. You may become tempted to take on more than a business the size of yours really needs at this point. Don’t be misled by all the bells and whistles that are available. Stick with the basics when you start out, and add other options only when they are truly needed and when you can afford them.

Companies offering a small business merchant account are usually banks and other financial institutions. Typically they look for a company’s good credit history, the ability to make payments on the merchant account, and avoidance of questionable commercial activities like spam or telemarketing. They are willing to extend credit to small business owners who demonstrate good business ethics, who have made good use of resources to date, and who have developed a sensible growth plan for long-term goals.

Often, the application can be filled out online and submitted electronically, and you may receive an answer within a matter of hours. Then you can immediately purchase or lease credit processing equipment like a credit card processor, electronic or wireless, as well as check and debit processors, pagers, and other types of technical equipment that will upgrade your business into a higher professional realm by dint of efficiency and speed capabilities.

Your small business merchant account will help you set up an Internet Website to promote your business internationally. Customers from around the world can browse the site any time of the day or night and shop without the hassle of finding the store closed or associates unavailable. With your convenience credit processing option, they can order a product or service and pay by credit card, facilitated by the underwriting bank or financial institution that authorizes MasterCard or Visa coordination and then pays you via an account transfer. All you really have to do after setting up the site and keeping it upgraded via service personnel is to make occasional equipment checks and then withdraw income from your merchant account.

A merchant account gives a small business owner the freedom to conduct business like a professional, using the same equipment and services to attract and serve busy customers. Others in your field who don’t have a merchant account may lose clients to your company when you upgrade to the use of time-saving technology. Check out the advantages along with the responsibilities of opening a small business merchant account.

Small Business Ideas Are All Around You

The right small business ideas can make a big difference in your life even if you aren't the type who usually thinks of himself as an entrepreneur. After all, starting a small business does not have to be a full-time occupation. A good friend of mine got a small business grant to start a part time auto detailing business. All it really involved was updating some of his automotive supplies, renting a store front, and going in after work a couple days a week. It made him a fair bit of extra cash, and best of all he was able to keep his old job while he was doing it. That way, while he was working on starting a small business, he still had a way to pay the bills.

Even without a good small business idea, you can own your own business. Starting a franchise or even an independent store can be the beginning of a lucrative career with a little bit of luck. Nonetheless, the right small business ideas really make a difference. With the growth of the Internet, many small craft businesses have been springing up lately. Nowadays, you don't need to have local stores willing to sell your products. All you need is something that you think people will buy. If you can make it in your own workshop, you can ship it out from your house all over the country.

Of course, small business ideas do not have to involve something completely new. Sometimes a small business idea is as simple as coming up with a new way to advertise something. If you are opening a restaurant, bar, coffee shop, or something else in the food service sector , all you have to do is find the right niche. As long as you can find a particular kind of client who appreciates your look and the food you have to offer, you can make a tidy profit. Few people make it big in the restaurant industry, but the right small business ideas can at least help you make your living doing something you love.

The very best small business ideas are sometimes the ones that no one else will believe in. Even if you can't find a small business loan or grant at first, persevere. If your idea for a small business is as good as you think it is, someone will notice you. It is only a matter of time.

ON  BURNING OF THE HOLY  QURAN 
 
Who is burning the Quran? A Christian priest? Ask a question, if I write the name of Jesus Christ on a piece of paper 29 times and give it to him to burn it, will he burn it? If I write the name of Moses on a piece of paper and give it to a Jew, will he burn it? What they intend to burn is the same. In the Quran the name of Jesus Christ is mentioned with great Honour 29 times and the name of Moses with dignity 129 times, while the name of Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon all of them) is mentioned just 4 times. In addition all the 24 prophets mentioned in the Quran are there in the Bible. Make them aware that they are burning thenames of Jesus Christ, Moses and all 24 prophets. The problem is none of them have ever cared to read the Quran. My request to them is to read the Quran’s translation in their own language (easily available free in mosques and in Islamic Centers) and then decide whether burning the Quran is justified or not. I may assure them that they will highly regret in their lives when at a later date they read it. All the allegations of immorality on Mother Mary, Jesus Christ and other prophets mentioned in different books have been very neatly refuted in the Quran. Mother Mary has been given the highest Honour amongst all the women of the World. Read it you will be enlightened. Birth of Moses and his marriage has been described in the most respectful manner. Not a single derogatory word has been used in the Quran for any of the prophets those mentioned in the Bible. Why burn the Quran? Burn those books in which baseless allegations have been put on many of theprophets of God. That will be fully justified. Once you read its translation, you will be convinced that it is the best book on earth, every word is of God, the God of Adam, Abraham, Moses and Jesus (peace be upon them all). Not a single word has changed in 1431 years. It is in its original, pristine form preserved in Turkey and in Leningrad.
 
It is totally a wrong concept that it was written by the prophet Muhammad (pbuh). How can a person who did not know how to read anything or write, can write a book of over 600 pages without any mistake, describing the advance theory of science and space? He could not even put his signature on the letters which he sent to the heads of states, he used to stamp them with a seal of his name. Moreover the Quran is in the highest literary form of Arabic language, which he did not speak; he used to speak colloquial Arabic. How can Quran be considered man made; a book which describes intricate embryological development of a fetus, space science, complicated oceanography and in over 1400 years no one has found any contradiction or any mistake?Every word of the Quran is the word of God, the same God of Adam, Abraham Moses and Jesus Christ. How can anyone even think of burning the words of your own God?
 
What is radical about Islam or the teachings of the Quran? Without reading it you call it radical! Bring a single copy of the Bible which is in its original form. What amount of changes is made in the Bible by men to the words of God? Who gave them the authority in the very first place to change the words of God, revise and re-revise the Bible? But still we do not call it radical. We also have appeal to the Muslims of the whole world don’t even think of burning a single copy of the Bible in retaliation because the Bible has the names of our 24 prophets whom all we respect from the core of our hearts.
 
Coming down to the most crucial point of 9/11: The allegation is again on the Muslim, so they decided to burn the Quran, stop building an Islamic Center in Manhattan near Ground Zero. Have a look at the documentaries made on the truth of 9/11. These documentaries are proved without the shadow of doubt there in the scenario of 9/11 in the year 2001, no Muslim was involved. In one of the documentary it said loud and clear  that no Muslim is involved in 9/11 . Amazing, all the documentaries and films are made by Americans and that too Christians. Go through each and every documentary on U-Tube, you will be amazed, who did it - you have to decide yourself of course not any Muslim?  The preparation was done three months before 9/11. If anyone considers these documentaries are not authentic, why can’t they take the producers to the courts and involve FBI to investigate how dare they can make such movie which has tarnished the image of America all over the world and the whole world had sunk in deep recession shattering the economy of all the countries. What benefit they achieved by doing so? Thousands of Americans were killed and even are being killed today. Trillions of Dollars have burnt in smoke, millions of innocent people were killed and other multimillions suffered. Why don’t these preachers of peace go after them who did it? Why Muslims and why Quran?
Send this article to all your acquaintances, News papers, magazines, put it on the U-Tube, radio stations, television stations  and on the Internet.

Imam hassan (a.s.) says


I wonder those who think about their body's food, but do not think about their soul's food. they keep away disturbing food from their belly, but fill up their heart with destructive subjects.

Imam Alis(as) said:
The man of knowledge is the one who recognizes that what is known is very little compared to what is not known, and as a result he considers himself ignorant, and accordingly he increases his efforts to know more by going out in search of knowledge.

One day Imam Reza (A.S.) mentioned Quran, so he described the magnanimity and glory of its authority and its miracles saying,
 "That is the firm cable of Allah, firmest handhold the ideal and model path, it guides leads toward paradise and is the savior from the fire (of Hell). It does not corrode or wear out by the passage and flow of time. More over, its continuous repetition and recitation through the tongue does not devalue and depreciate it, since, it is not made to exist for a certain age or period apart from other ages and periods. Instead, it has been made a proof, logic for all human beings. Falsehood does neither find passage in the front or afore of it nor from it's back side.
It has been descended (revealed) by Allah, the all wise, all praise worthy.
(Bihar Ul Anwar Vol 92, P 14)
