One mosquito coil equals 100 cigarettes

One mosquito coil equals 100 cigarettes,  says expert
Smoke emitted from one mosquito repellent coil is equivalent to those of 100 cigarettes, thus causing harm to a large number of people in India, an expert said on Wednesday.



"Not many people know about it, but the damage done to your lungs by one mosquito coil is equivalent to the damage done by 100 cigarettes. This was according to a recent study conducted in Malyasia," said Chest Research Foundation director Sandeep Salvi.

He was speaking at the conference 'Air Pollution and Our Health', organised by the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) along with the Indian Council for Medical Research and the Indian Medical Association.

Mr Salvi said there is a lack of awareness about the impact of air pollution on human health.

Pointing out the "lack of research culture" among Indian doctors, Salvi said that indoor air pollution too is a health risk factor.

Participants at the event, which included doctors and health researchers, also spoke about vehicular air pollution in the capital.

According to estimates, about 55 per cent of Delhi's population lives within 500 metres from main roads - and is, therefore, prone to a variety of physical disorders.

"The vehicular pollution is a major concern for the environment. The rising incidents of genetic disorder have a lot to do with air pollution. India loses one million children under five because of respiratory problems every year," said Sanjeev Bagai, the chief executive officer of Batra Hospitals.

He said industries also contribute to the air pollution and these need to be shifted out of the capital.

Coils and plug-in mosquito repellents contain chemicals which are not safe to be inhaled. Studies have shown that the smoke and fumes from them aggravate or cause breathing problems. They can also cause eye irritations or allergic reactions. In large doses, the chemicals can cause serious illnesses. Some research also links the burning of coils to lung cancer.

So if you're using coils and plug-in mosquito repellents:
Follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully.

Keep your baby in another room. If you must take your baby into the room, open the windows first.

Do not sleep in a room with a plug-in repellent or burning coil.
If mosquitoes are a menace, consider using natural insect repellents instead. There are a number of them with varying levels of success.

You could also try keeping mosquitoes at bay by:
burning citronella or lemon grass scented candles in and on the landing of the house
burning citronella or lemon grass essential oils in a burner at dusk when it is usually the time that mosquitoes enter the house.
burning insect repellant incense sticks at dusk
Get rid of stagnant water. Empty old flower pots, vases, air coolers and other items that collect water, especially during the monsoon season.

Dress your baby in light-coloured clothing. Dark colours attract mosquitoes.

Dress your baby in long-sleeved and full length garments to avoid skin exposure.

Stay in air-conditioned or cool areas. Mosquitoes do not thrive in cold temperatures.

Use mosquito nets while sleeping, not only at night but also during daytime naps.

Install mosquito meshes on your doors and windows. You could try the detachable or velcro meshes that are available from hardware stores and home maintenance stores. These let in some light and breeze.

Keep your baby away from hedges and bushes when in the park. These are where mosquitoes are commonly found.

WOMEN ARE NOT ALLOW TO BE IMAM

‎                 WOMEN ARE NOT ALLOW TO BE IMAM

Read and SHAre

It is not permissible to introduce any new style or liturgy in Salat (Prayer) ..

Leading Salat (Prayer), however, is restricted to male Imams only when the congregation consists of men and women both, whether the prayer is performed in the mosques or outside mosques, whether they are daily Salat (Prayer) or Friday and Eid Salat (Prayer). Women are not allowed to lead such prayers.

This has also been the practice of Muslims all over the world since the time of the Prophet . This Shar'i ruling is not because of any notion of spiritual deficiency among women. Men and women both are equal in the sight of Allah and both of them must be fully respected and honored. Women are allowed to lead the Salat (Prayer) when the congregation is all females. They are also allowed to lead the Salat (Prayer) in their homes among their family members, if they are more knowledgeable of the Qur'an and Islamic rules.

We pray to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala that we sincerely follow His Din (prescribed way of life) without any innovation or exaggeration.

Young American Discovers Islam

        My Life Was Nothing But Carefully Crafted Lies

 



 Young American Discovers Islam 

“People say that miracles do not happen today, but I would contend that my story proves them wrong.” 

My journey to Islam is, it is safe to say, not the usual one. Most white converts I have met came from a liberal and very open background. My upbringing was far from this. 

Both of my parents were in the US military and my upbringing was very strict. My father was very racist, and because of this, I was very racist myself until about the age of 24. I can remember as a child listening to my father lambaste and attack Arabs and Muslims and bash their religion, their way of life, and their race. As this was the way I was raised this is the position I took as well.

I had a very troubled childhood, as the above can only begin to describe. My father was an alcoholic and a very physically abusive man. I grew up with the constant fear of violence against myself, my mother, and my brother and sister. Coming from such a background it only seemed natural that I seek a group of people to replace the family life that I did not get at home. The problem is, with the way I was raised, the people I sought this companionship from were the worst of the worst.

For several years I was heavily involved in the racist skinhead movement. As with anything else in my life, I was not content to be a follower, but always enjoyed taking the lead, and my involvement in the Neo-Nazi skinhead movement was the same. I was well known and feared in the scene in the town where I grew up. My longing for family and friends, however, never killed the seed in my heart that what I was doing was wrong, that it was unjust. I remember a Mexican schoolmate of mine asking me when I was 16 "why do you hang out with those losers, you are better than that." He was right, but I guess there was a part of me that, even though I hated my father for what he was doing to the family, wanted to be just like him. That is where my racism and hatred came from.

The situation at home became worse for me so I was forced to move out on my own. I think from this moment this is what sealed my future as a Muslim - getting away from my father, the hatred that he felt, and experiencing the world and people on my own. The next few years were pretty rough on me and I continued for many years on the path that I had started on. I was drinking, I was doing drugs and I was getting into very serious trouble with the law. All the while, all of the people I had sought to take the place of my family turned out to be the worst sort of people, violent, dishonest and untrustworthy.

I left the state I grew up in when I was 23 and for the first time in my life was able to experience life without the overwhelming figure of my father hanging over me and the malign influence of my friends. I started to see all of the carefully crafted lies my life was based on crumble around me. I slowly saw all of the truths that my life was based on unravel. It is at this point that I started to question everything in my life, including my religious beliefs. I took the stance that everything in my life was suspect and had to be reevaluated.

I had a girlfriend at the time whom I later married. She had also been active in the racist skinhead scene that I was involved with and there was always this worry that I offend her with my new ideas and thinking. I had always been an avid reader, and I took the next couple of years to read everything I could get my hands onto. This passion of mine - reading - has lead me to collect a small library of books that now consists of over a thousand volumes, everything from Kant, Descartes to Ramadan and Edward Said.

During this time the Intifada was raging in Palestine. My father, racist and anti-Semite though he was, had always supported the Jewish state. I now think that he hated Jews, as well as any one else who wasn't white, but he hated the Arabs more than he hated the Jews, so that is why he supported Israel. As I was rethinking everything I was taught when I was younger I decided to take a closer look at this struggle in the Middle East.

I started reading general books on Middle Eastern history and the national politics of the area. Again and again I found that I was having trouble understanding both the history and politics of the area because I didn't have any sort of understanding about Islam. As a child I had attended church from time to time, but didn't have a firm grounding in any religion. My father had a hatred of Islam, so as a teen I had shared this hatred without having a clue as to what Islam was about or what Muslims believed. It goes without saying that I had never met a Muslim in my life.

So I started to look into Islam, its history and beliefs. This was when the internet was gaining in peculiarity so I used both paper texts and sources from the internet to help me gain an understanding on the basics of Islam and its history. At this time I was living in Washington state and was not aware of a Muslim community there, so there was really no one I knew with whom I could talk to. Shortly after this my wife's job transferred her to England so this was all about to change.

When I got to England my interests strayed for a while. I was in a new country with a long and rich history, so I spent a few years exploring this history and traveling all over Europe. But from time to time events would draw my attention back to the Middle East and the politics there. I was now in a country with a long standing and well established Muslim community, although the town I lived in didn't have any such community. I began now to read in earnest about Islamic beliefs, ideology, and history. I also started reading the Quran.

From the very beginning some things struck a chord with me and answered doubts I had always had concerning the religion I was raised in. I had always taken issue with the idea that God would ever have offspring. From my reading I recognized this belief as one pulled from pagan sources. Zeus, Odin, and numerous other pagan gods all had children. 

In the case of Odin, his followers even believed he hung on a tree, much like Christians believe that Jesus (peace be upon him) hung on a cross. Odinists, the name given to the followers of this ancient Northern European religion, also believed in a trinity of sorts formed by Odin, his son Thor, and his consort Freja. It was clear this innovation of the Christians did not have its basis in God, but in previous pagan beliefs.
The other issue that I had always struggled with was the concept of original sin. The idea that God could be so unjust as to hold myself and everyone else responsible for the sins of others who died thousands of years before me just seemed so unjust. I had a basic concept of God, and the idea He could be so unjust to do such a thing just did not sit well with me. It always seemed to me that Christians just didn't have the answer to these questions, and if they did, their answers just reinforced these unjust positions. 

I looked to Judaism, but that religion offered more questions than answers as well. Their attitude towards the prophets, peace be upon them all, was disgraceful. Their religious texts accused these greatest of men of the most terrible crimes and I refused to belive God would pick such men to lead his people on earth. 

If Judaism held such beliefs how could I look to them for guidance? ..

                                       Ibrahim Killington.





Before I came to Islam, my life was really focused on drink, drugs, having fun.

The whole purpose of life was just to have fun, have a laugh; the way to make your life bearable until you die, and hanging around with people of similar interests which were not always the best company to keep.

My first experience of seeing Muslims was the 9/11 attacks. I remember I was quite young at that time, I wasn't completely aware of what was going on. In fact, I ran to my friends after seeing the news report, and I told them that the "tourists" have declared war on America, because I had never heard of terrorists before.

As the war was unfolding, I was seeing more and more about the war in Afghanistan, I started understanding that these people are Muslims. The Muslims are doing these horrible atrocities around the world. So, from the media bombardment, I started getting a strong hatred for Muslims. So much in fact. I tried to join the army three times with the goal of wanting to go over there, and kill as many of these people as I could, to do my bit for my country and to make it a bit safer for my family. I thought they were the big evil of the world.

Discovering Islam

I started hearing a bit more about Islam, the last time I was applying for the army, I came across this radio station, at that time, I was listening to conspiracy theory radio, and things like this. It was a radio station from the American Government called Terror Talk, and it was talking about the life of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).

It just didn't sound right to me that people would follow him from all of these evil things that they were saying about him. So, I started to question what Muslims believed at that time, I was on a spiritual search anyway.

At the time I was looking into Norse Mythology and Paganism, and one of my friends told me before you decide on this paganism thing have a look around a bit more. Therefore, I came across Muslims on the Internet. I think one of the first people I saw on the Internet was Baba Ali. He broke the stereotype of Muslims for me. I was surprised that this guy is funny and he was very laid back. He wasn't with a big beard shouting "Kill the Kafir," and this kind of stuff.

I eventually picked up the Quran from college. When I had it, I thought I was actually picking a "Terrorist Handbook," and I was worried that MI5 would come after me as soon as they saw me taking it out of the library.

But as soon as I started reading the book, it hit me immediately. I couldn't stop reading it; it sank deep into my heart. As I continued reading through the different surahs (chapters), I remember reading about people in the fire having boiling water to drink that is burning their throats. As I could read this and I was living this awful life, I could feel my throat burning, and I could feel how real this thing was, and how I had to change.

First, I went to the mosque, I spent all day there reading. My Mum called me in the evening and asked me where had I been all day. I said I was at the mosque

So she said, "No, you can't be at mosque, you are a Christian. Christians don't go to mosques."

She was very shocked and was sure that I was going down a bad path.
That was my Mum's original reaction, after a while she started to accept it. She cried a lot. I'm not too sure why she was crying, I think she felt I was rejecting everything she taught me.

A lot of people say that when they found Islam, it is as if they've come home. And that's the feeling I get. Me in the past wasn't me at all, I was being controlled by something else. Only good things have happened since I've become Muslim.

If I was going to give advice to someone else who is thinking about Islam, I'd definitely tell them to come to the mosque and speak to a man of knowledge. Do not search the Internet for the answers. There are some good things on the Internet, but when you don't know anything about Islam, you can't judge what is right and what is wrong. So it's much better to speak to someone.Spend time with Muslims. I spent many weeks in their company, and you get an understanding of who they are and what kind of quality of people they are. 
Don't be afraid of what your family think; I've had many people and myself as well I was worried about what my parents would think, but at the end of the day Islam is for you, and you should hope the best for your parents will come afterwards.

Emma Taylor revert to Islam

                             Emma Taylor revert to Islam





 “I was raised a Catholic but after-school partying and living a wannabe WAG lifestyle became my religion. I loved buying sexy clothes and hanging out with mates. 

I’d also just come through a bad break-up and one night my Muslim mate invited me around for dinner. While I was at Susan’s she broke away to pray. I watched and she seemed so at peace with her life. That’s when I asked her about her religion. 

Sitting with the other women I felt a weird sense of relief and acceptance come over me. For an hour my problems disappeared. I liked the boundaries, with the men separated from the women, and the sense of reverence, of kindness. For the first time ever I felt spiritually alive. 
With my friend’s help, I converted. It was a radical change for me and many of my other mates thought I was mad. I persevered and discovered the Muslim community is made up of many races and everyone is very welcoming. 

Now I pray five times a day, read the Koran, go to mosque and have been welcomed by everyone – there are lots of young white women my age. 
I haven’t had a drink in six months – the longest since I started sneaking booze at 13. I’m healthier and happier. 

I wear a hijab or head scarf almost all the time I leave the house and I also don’t eat pork – I tell friends my love of bacon butties has been replaced with a love of my new religion.”

WHY HIJAB?


                                           For my sisters
My dear lovely sisters ♥

Do you know ?

♥ There is a whole Surah in Qur’an with our name (Suratul Nisaa (women))

♥ The first martyr in Islam was a woman (Sumayya)

♥ The first person who believed in Mohammad (sallAllahu alaihi wa sallam) was a woman (Khadijah (Radhi Allah anha))

♥ The recommendation prophet Mohammad gave to his nation before he died was to treat you well.

♥ you are the half of the society, and you raise the other half, how high your status is!

♥ And because you are so precious, Islam honored you with Hijab for preserving your chastity and purity …

You are a Muslimah :) ♥

WHY HIJAB?

sisters and brothers please read and SHARE....

Remember that being aware of your beauty does not mean it should be flaunted for the world.

Remember your body is special and deserves to be respected. It isn’t eye candy for everyone to see.

Remember that because you are beautiful, only the blessed man who is your husband deserves to see it.

Remember that you are worth far more than the sum of your parts.

Remember there are brothers out there struggling to lower their gaze. Prevent fitna for them.

Remember that there are those who hold perverse thoughts. Hijab is a means of protection from their lustful gazes.

Remember that your beauty, just like other blessings, is also a test from Allah.

Remember that the mind is Shaytan’s playground. He will try his hardest to sway us from doing what is right.

Remember for that which may be difficult in this life, Allah will reward us immensely in Jannah for our endurance and patience in His way.

Remember that we live in a hyper-sexualized society where women are treated as objects. Don’t endorse this ideology by allowing yourself to be objectified.

Remember that if you respect your body, people will respect you.

Remember that societal norms are not guidelines for how one lives their life and should not dictate your attire.

Remember the adherence you owe to your Rabb (Lord) is far more important than the personal opinions of others.

Remember that you are a role model for the younger sisters around you and your children.

Remember that liberation or success is not dependent upon how few clothes you wear.

Remember to embrace your femininity. Allah has made females physically different from males.

Remember that we (Muslims) have come into this world as strangers, and as strangers we will depart. As the Prophet (sallAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) had said, “give glad tidings to the strangers” [Sahih Muslim]

Remember that hijab is a protection from impious men who are not on Sirat Al-Mustaqeem (the Straight Path). As Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala has stated in the Quran, “women of purity are for men purity.” (Surah An-Nur, ayah 26)

Remember that a truly righteous brother will respect a woman who is able to respect herself.

Remember the trials and tribulations the Sahabiyat faced during the time of the Prophet (sallAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) yet how they held steadfast to the Quran and way of the Prophet (sallAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam).

Remember the shame we feel in being improperly covered in front of our mahrams (non-marriageable male relatives). Now multiply that feeling if we were to stand in front of the Prophet (sallAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) and Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala.


Always remember Allah. Hijab is not something optional. It has been explicitly commanded in the Quran and the evidence for that is clear. We will all stand before Allah on Yawm Al-Qiyamah (The Day of Resurrection). What excuse would we give, as His creation, in disobeying Him?

Is this a hijab


                                     Is this a hijab ????????????????

Unfortunately some women are mocking Allah's orders , they wear half naked tight clothes thinking that it is religious .

I think we better respect our religion and behave ourselves , the hijab is made to make the women not attractive to strangers , it should not be tight or attractive ,

Many non muslims wear clothes more respectful than this kind of muslim girls ...





'' The Camel Hump Hijab Style.''

''BEWARE MY SISTERS IN ISLAM, AVOID WEARING MODERN WAYS OF HIJAB'S KEEP IT NICE, SIMPLE AND WELL COVERED.''

Many Muslimahs are taking this trend and forgetting that it is wrong for them to wear the Hijab in the camel hump style. The bigger you do the hump the more you look like an alien! Muslimahs that wear the camel hump style are cursed.

When asked about her Hijab by Journalists & how it is not proportionate with her level of intellect and education, she replied:

•••►“Man in the early times was almost naked, and as his intellect evolved he started wearing clothes. What I am today and what I’m wearing represents the highest level of thought and civilization that man has achieved, and is not regressive. It’s the removal of clothes again that is regressive back to ancient times!!”
