F A M I L Y
I ran into a stranger as he passed by,
‘Oh excuse me please’ was my reply.
He said, ‘Please excuse me too;
I wasn’t watching for you.’
We were very polite, this stranger and I.
We went on our way and we said goodbye.
But at home a different story is told,
How we treat our loved ones, young and old.
Later that day, cooking the evening meal,
My son stood beside me very still.
When I turned, I nearly knocked him down.
‘Move out of the way,’ I said with a frown.
He walked away, his little heart broken.
I didn’t realize how harshly I’d spoken.
While I lay awake in bed,
God’s still small voice came to me and said,
‘While dealing with a stranger,
Common courtesy you use,
But the family you love,
you seem to abuse.
Go and look on the kitchen floor,
You’ll find some flowers there by the door.
Those are the flowers he brought for you.
He picked them himself: pink, yellow and blue.
He stood very quietly not to spoil the surprise,
You never saw the tears that filled his little eyes.’
By this time, I felt very small,
And now my tears began to fall.
I quietly went and knelt by his bed;
‘Wake up, little one, wake up,’ I said.
‘Are these the flowers you picked for me?’
He smiled, ‘I found ‘em, out by the tree.
I picked ‘em because they’re pretty like you.
I knew you’d like ‘em, especially the blue.’
I said, ‘Son, I’m very sorry for the way I acted today;
I shouldn’t have yelled at you that way.’
He said, ‘Oh, Mom, that’s okay.
I love you anyway.’
I said, ‘Son, I love you too,
And I do like the flowers, especially the blue.’
FAMILY
Are you aware that if we died tomorrow, the company
That we are working for could easily replace us in
A matter of days.
But the family we left behind will feel the loss
For the rest of their lives.
And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more
Into work than into our own family,
An unwise investment indeed,
Don’t you think?
So what is behind the story?
Do you know what the word FAMILY means?
FAMILY = (F)ATHER (A)ND (M)OTHER (I) (L)OVE (Y)OU

New Saudi Arabia Mecca Tower, World’s Biggest Clocks – Count Down Started
(Clocks and tower building built by Osama Bin Laden’s family’s Saudi Binladin Group)
The world’s biggest clock has now started working in The Abraj Al-Bait Towers, also known as the Mecca Royal Hotel Clock Tower.
The recently constructed building itself is one the tallest and biggest buildings of the world.
The clocks are stationed in at almost the very top of the 601 metres (1,972 feet) tall world’s second tallest building.
The face of the largest clock in the world. The clock face measures 43 × 43 m (141 × 141 ft). There are four like this facing the four directions in the Saudi Arabia, Mecca Royal tower building.
These four huge clocks started working from 1st of Muslim Ramadan fasting month of 2011.
In the above photo you see the Mecca Royal Clock tower building with one of the huge Mecca clocks at the top. This is how the clock looks when Muslim pilgrims and worshippers look at it from within the Mecca grand Haram Sheriff Mosque.
The black box like structure in the courtyard of the mosque is what is known as the Holy Kabah. It is the holiest place on earth according to Muslims and they face towards it while in prayers wherever are in the world.
Recent increases in millions of people flocking to Mecca to pray near this Holy Kabbah at times like during Haj Festival, prompted Saudi Arabian authorities to construct this monstrous hotel building to accommodate the Muslim Pilgrims.
Pilgrims in the Royal Clock Tower hotel will not only face towards the Holy Kabah but also will be able to see it without entering the Mecca mosque premises.
This is a arm of the clock, picture taken while it was raised to be fixed on to the clock.

In addition to having the largest clocks of the world this Mecca Royal Tower building boasts several more world records including

2. Tallest clock tower in the world

4. Second tallest building in the world, surpassed only by the Burj Khalifa Skyscraper Building in Dubai

“During a Sunday Service in church, My sermon was as follows:
Dear Brothers and Sisters !!!!!

That Piece of MEAT that separates brothers and sisters!!!!! Men and Women. !!!!!!!
That Piece of MEAT that causes Husbands and Wives to divorce!!!
That Piece of MEAT that causes hatred and jealousy between brothers.!!!!
That Piece of MEAT that causes women to fight with women,
It is that Piece of MEAT that is sometimes outside and sometimes more inside than outside .
Beloved brothers and sisters,
It is that Piece of MEAT that can give so much pain, but it also brings a lot of UNBELIEVABLE PLEASURE !
Beloved Brothers and Sisters, that’s the Piece of MEAT, I want to talk to you about : -

FW: Important!!
Seems the majority of the press are worshiping at his feet….Someone should put this on facebook.. If each person sends this to a minimum of twenty people on their address list, in three days, all people in The United States of America would have the message. I believe this is one proposal that really should be passed around.
THIS WILL CURDLE YOUR BLOOD AND CURL YOUR HAIR
The name of the book Obama is reading is called:
The Post-American World , and it was written by a fellow Muslim.
“Post” America means the world After America ! Please forward this picture to everyone you know, conservative or liberal. We must expose Obama’s radical ideas and his intent to bring down our beloved America !
In case you were wondering, The Post-American World is basically a book about how China and India are becoming major players on the world stage, and the “fellow Muslim” who wrote it is CNN’s Fareed Zakaria.
The American convervative email forwards about US President Barack Hussein Obama being a secret Muslim is theories are getting more paranoid by the day.
Just have a look at this Amazon.com Review of this socalled book against America
Book Description
“This is not a book about the decline of America, but rather about the rise of everyone else.” So begins Fareed Zakaria’s important new work on the era we are now entering. Following on the success of his best-selling The Future of Freedom, Zakaria describes with equal prescience a world in which the United States will no longer dominate the global economy, orchestrate geopolitics, or overwhelm cultures. He sees the “rise of the rest”—the growth of countries like China, India, Brazil, Russia, and many others—as the great story of our time, and one that will reshape the world. The tallest buildings, biggest dams, largest-selling movies, and most advanced cell phones are all being built outside the United States. This economic growth is producing political confidence, national pride, and potentially international problems. How should the United States understand and thrive in this rapidly changing international climate? What does it mean to live in a truly global era? Zakaria answers these questions with his customary lucidity, insight, and imagination.
According to reports already their are more false and fake email forwards about Barack Obama than President George W. Bush had in over 8 years in office with all his shortcomings. If any that’s saying something. Why do they hate this black guy so much? Is it his skin colour? Or is it because his father was a “Muslim”.
Can’t these people see how Barack Obama is just another pawn in the chessboard of the rich American and Multinational companies that control United States and the world and wage war against millions and millions of world citizens of all races, nationalities and colours just so they can make their company bigger or live more luxurious lives?

A woman baked chapatti (an Indian food like pizza) for members of her family and an extra one for a hungry passerby. She kept the extra chapatti on the window sill, for whosoever would take it away. Every day, a hunchback came and took away the chapatti. Instead of expressing gratitude, he muttered the following words as he went his way: “The evil you do remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!” This went on, day after day. Every day, the hunchback came, picked up the chapatti and uttered the words: “The evil you do, remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!” The woman felt irritated. “Not a word of gratitude,” she said to herself…
“Everyday this hunchback utters this jingle! What does he mean?” One day, exasperated, she decided to do away with him. “I shall get rid of this hunchback,” she said. And what did she do? She added poison to the chapatti she prepared for him! As she was about to keep it on the window sill, her hands trembled. “What is this I am doing?” she said. Immediately, she threw the chapatti into the fire, prepared another one and kept it on the window sill. As usual, the hunchback came, picked up the chapatti and muttered the words: “The evil you do, remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!” The hunchback proceeded on his way, blissfully unaware of the war raging in the mind of the woman.
Every day, as the woman placed the chapatti on the window sill, she offered a prayer for her son who had gone to a distant place to seek his fortune. For many months, she had no news of him.. She prayed for his safe return. That evening, there was a knock on the door. As she opened it, she was surprised to find her son standing in the doorway. He had grown thin and lean. His garments were tattered and torn. He was hungry, starved and weak. As he saw his mother, he said, “Mom, it’s a miracle I’m here. While I was but a mile away, I was so famished that I collapsed. I would have died, but just then an old hunchback passed by. I begged of him for a morsel of food, and he was kind enough to give me a whole chapatti. As he gave it to me, he said, “This is what I eat everyday: today, I shall give it to you, for your need is greater than mine!” ” As the mother heard those words, her face turned pale.
She leaned against the door for support. She remembered the poisoned chapatti that she had made that morning. Had she not burnt it in the fire, it would have been eaten by her own son, and he would have lost his life! It was then that she realized the significance of the words: “The evil you do remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!” Do good and Don’t ever stop doing good, even if it’s not appreciated at that time.
If you like this, share it with others and I bet so many lives would be touched.
Have a wonderful day!

Today i am telling you another interesting story. Please read.
One day a man saw an old lady, stranded on the side of the road, but even in the dim light of day, he could see she needed help. So he pulled up in front of her Mercedes and got out. His Pontiac was still sputtering when he approached her.
Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. No one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he going to hurt her? He didn’t look safe; he looked poor and hungry.
He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He knew how she felt. It was those chills which only fear can put in you.
He said, “I’m here to help you, ma’am. Why don’t you wait in the car where it’s warm? By the way, my name is Bryan Anderson.”
Well, all she had was a flat tire, but for an old lady, that was bad enough. Bryan crawled under the car looking for a place to put the jack, skinning his knuckles a time or two. Soon he was able to change the tire. But he had to get dirty and his hands hurt.
As he was tightening up the lug nuts, she rolled down the window and began to talk to him. She told him that she was from St. Louis and was only just passing through. She couldn’t thank him enough for coming to her aid.
Bryan just smiled as he closed her trunk. The lady asked how much she owed him. Any amount would have been all right with her. She already imagined all the awful things that could have happened had he not stopped. Bryan never thought twice about being paid. This was not a job to him. This was helping someone in need, and God knows there were plenty, who had given him a hand in the past. He had lived his whole life that way, and it never occurred to him to act any other way.
He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give that person the assistance they needed, and Bryan added, “And think of me.”
He waited until she started her car and drove off. It had been a cold and depressing day, but he felt good as he headed for home, disappearing into the twilight.
A few miles down the road the lady saw a small cafe. She went in to grab a bite to eat, and take the chill off before she made the last leg of her trip home. It was a dingy looking restaurant. Outside were two old gas pumps. The whole scene was unfamiliar to her. The waitress came over and brought a clean towel to wipe her wet hair. She had a sweet smile, one that even being on her feet for the whole day couldn’t erase. The lady noticed the waitress was nearly eight months pregnant, but she never let the strain and aches change her attitude. The old lady wondered how someone who had so little could be so giving to a stranger. Then she remembered Bryan.
After the lady finished her meal, she paid with a hundred dollar bill. The waitress quickly went to get change for her hundred dollar bill, but the old lady had slipped right out the door. She was gone by the time the waitress came back. The waitress wondered where the lady could be. Then she noticed something written on the napkin.
There were tears in her eyes when she read what the lady wrote: “You don’t owe me anything. I have been there too. Somebody once helped me out, the way I’m helping you. If you really want to pay me back, here is what you do: Do not let this chain of love end with you.”
Under the napkin were four more $100 bills.
Well, there were tables to clear, sugar bowls to fill, and people to serve, but the waitress made it through another day. That night when she got home from work and climbed into bed, she was thinking about the money and what the lady had written. How could the lady have known how much she and her husband needed it? With the baby due next month, it was going to be hard….
She knew how worried her husband was, and as he lay sleeping next to her, she gave him a soft kiss and whispered soft and low, “Everything’s going to be all right. I love you, Bryan Anderson.”

Hope you all enjoyed my story today. Please do not be selfish, be considerate.. thoughtful and compassionate!
What goes round, comes round!

This is one Powerful Email Forward Story That Makes One Think About Others! Please take a few minutes to read and a few more to ponder it. How many situations we may have missed like this trying to catch the flight while somebody else suffers for our mistakes and neglect!
This is really powerful and makes one think!!!!
A few years ago a group of salesmen went to a regional sales convention in Chicago . They had assured their wives that they would be home in plenty of time for Friday night’s dinner. In their rush, with tickets and briefcases, one of these salesmen inadvertently kicked over a table which held a display of apples. Apples flew everywhere. Without stopping or looking back, they all managed to reach the plane in time for their nearly missed boarding the plane… ALL BUT ONE !!! He paused, took a deep breath, and experienced a twinge of compassion for the girl whose apple stand had been overturned..
He told his buddies to go on without him, waved good-bye, told one of them to call his wife when they arrived at their home destination and explain his taking a later flight. Then he returned to the terminal where the apples were all over the terminal floor.
He was glad he did.
The 16 year old girl was totally blind! She was softly crying, tears running down her cheeks in frustration, and at the same time helplessly groping for her spilled produce as the crowd swirled about her, no one stopping and no one to care for her plight.
The salesman knelt on the floor with her, gathered up the apples, put them back on the table and helped organize her display. As he did this, he noticed that many of them had become battered and bruised; these he set aside in another basket.
When he had finished, he pulled out his wallet and said to the girl, ‘Here, please take this $40 for the damage we did. Are you okay?’ She nodded through her tears. He continued on with, ‘I hope we didn’t spoil your day too badly.’
Then the he walked away, to catch his late flight.
The End.
That’s the end of the story. The saleman didn’t receive a reward for his act then and there. But he was inconvenienced and delayed and maybe had to spend extra money to catch the missed plane. But he probably made a world of difference to that blind girl. That we will never know.
Too many Muslims today are selfish and don’t care to think about others. If we claim to follow the last prophet of Allah we should live, walk and act as He would. Lets make it a point to be considerate and avoid hurting others be helpful to others in our short journey in this life on earth. Ameen.

Mulla Nasruddin Jokes And Folktales From Turkey
Mulla Nasruddin Deliverse A Sermon
Once Nasreddin was invited to deliver a sermon. When he got on the pulpit, he asked, “Do you know what I am going to say?” The audience replied “no”, so he announced, “I have no desire to speak to people who don’t even know what I will be talking about!” and left.
The people felt embarrassed and called him back again the next day. This time, when he asked the same question, the people replied “yes”. So Nasreddin said, “Well, since you already know what I am going to say, I won’t waste any more of your time!” and left.
Now the people were really perplexed. They decided to try one more time and once again invited the Mullah to speak the following week. Once again he asked the same question – “Do you know what I am going to say?” Now the people were prepared and so half of them answered “yes” while the other half replied “no”. So Nasreddin said “Let the half who know what I am going to say, tell it to the half who don’t,” and left.
Mulla Nasruddin – Who do you trust
A neighbour came to the gate of Mulla Nasreddin’s yard. The Mulla went to meet him outside.
“Would you mind, Mulla,” the neighbour asked, “lending me your donkey today? I have some goods to transport to the next town.”
The Mulla didn’t feel inclined to lend out the animal to that particular man, however. So, not to seem rude, he answered: “I’m sorry, but I’ve already lent him to somebody else.”
All of a sudden the donkey could be heard braying loudly behind the wall of the yard.
“But Mulla,” the neighbour exclaimed. “I can hear it behind that wall!”
“Who do you believe,” the Mulla replied indignantly. “The donkey or your Mulla?”
Mullah Nasruddin: Taste the same
Some children saw Nasreddin coming from the vineyard with two basketfuls of grapes loaded on his donkey. They gathered around him and asked him to give them a taste.
Nasreddin picked up a bunch of grapes and gave each child a grape.
“You have so much, but you gave us so little,” the children whined.
“There is no difference whether you have a basketful or a small piece. They all taste the same,” Nasreddin answered, and continued on his
way.
Note: Mulla Nasruddin was a mystic Moslem character believed to have lived in a town situated in modern day country of Turkey during the Seljuk Islamic empire. There is a large number of jokes and folklore surrounding him and he is the most famous wise-cracker of Middle East.
