My feeling, today

                  

Today I have had an ambiguous feeling that cannot describe it…I know these days elapse, and when looking back, you see how soon they went by.

Oh,…people are very different and eccentric.

Today, they wish time passes very soon and tomorrow they wish to go back to these days.

Today they sacrifice their health to be rich and tomorrow, in order to restore their health, they will have to spend it all.

They don't value each other today, and tomorrow they know how disloyal they were to each other.

They live today in a way as if they will be alive forever, and tomorrow die in a way as if had not been alive one day.

 

Today ………..oh

 

I've got a big question mark in mind that I am sure no one except for myself is able to respond it.

However, I have not got the exact way to arrive at a response so far.  

Perhaps I need to get help from someone, but….no….

Who can be trusted then?!

 

Sometimes I hear words….sometimes I see some things causing not even depend on myself….

Sometimes I am upset about myself….since I become dumbfounded sometimes….since I sometimes become so naïve and believe others very soon ….and since sometimes I am upset about myself….and again sometimes……

 

I love these words very much

Today no one is confidant of the secrets of others

I have experienced that no one helps others

Do not spend time on friends uselessly

Spend it on one whose heart is for no one

 

Forget it….

To make a long story short,

If I become lonelier than lonely, God exists forever

He suffices for whatever I lack.

A fisherman

A fisherman

 

Two men were fishing near a lake. One of them was an experienced and skilled angler, but another knew nothing about it.

 

Whenever the experienced one caught a big fish, put it in a container filled with ice that was close to him. However, the amateur one threw it back at the lake as soon as he caught a big one.

 

The experienced angler was very shocked why he loses the fish. Therefore, after a little awhile asked him surprisingly:

How come do you throw these big fish at the sea?

 The man answered: because my pan is small.

Off and on, similarly, we do not take up the big chances, big jobs, big dreams, big opportunities dedicated by God, as we do not have faith in God.

We do ridicule a man whose only need was a bigger pan, but we are not aware that our only need is to trust in God.

God never ever grants you something you do not deserve.

 It truly means to try to utilize whatever meeting in lifetime with an absolute confidence.

Nothing is impossible for God.

Bear it in mind:

Do not tell your God how big your problems are.

Tell your problems how big your God is.

Expressing love

Expressing love

 

One day, a teacher asked his students at the class, can you say a way of expressing love which has not been done by anyone else before, I mean not repetitive one?

Several students said forgiveness would be the best way of expressing love. Some of them mentioned that ''giving flowers, presents,'' or ''lovely word'' would be a good way of that. Moreover, some other students pointed out ''being together, tolerating the hardships and enjoying happiness'' is a good way of expressing your love.

 

Suddenly, one boy got up and before suggesting his own way of expressing love, shared a short story with the class:

one day, a couple who were both biologist, as usual moved to jungle in order to do research. When they reached the top of hill, shockingly, confronted with an atypical situation in which made them have no movement.

A big tiger, standing in front of the couple and was staring at them. The man had not a rifle with him and had no way out.

They were both panicked and they did not dare to move away in front of the tiger. The tiger approached the man quietly. At the time, the biologist man let a shout out and abandoned his wife. Immediately, the tiger ran after him and some minutes late, the wife could hear the whines of her young husband. Then the tiger left there and the woman survived.




The narrator's face was drenched by tears, then continued: all the biologists know that tiger only attacks one who has a motion or run away. My Dad at that terrifying moment sacrificed himself before my Mom to survive her. It was the most sincere and faithful way of my Dad to express his love to me and my Mom.

The greatest favor

 

 

Ladies and Gentlemen

Salaam.

Do you know what the greatest favor of God for humanity is? Sun, water, love, or food? Which one do you choose?

So far, have you ever thought about it even for one minute?

This post, over again, translated by Majid Ja'fari, is trying to respond to this question. Therefore, read it carefully, think about it with an open mind, and ask if you doubt.

May God guide us in the straight path.

Fatimah, daughter of the prophet

Today, by this post, I am going to dedicate a nice message to those who love the daughter of the prophet, Fatimah. In Arabic, Fatimah is originated from Fa-Ta-Ma, meaning ' to separate', and then Fatimah means a person who separates, or separator.

 

One day, the prophet asked his daughter, do you know why are you named Fatimah by God?

Amir-Al-Momenin( the commander of faithful) was also there, then he immediately said, why is that, oh the prophet?

 

 

 قال رسول الله صلی الله علیه و آله

 

انما سمیت ابتنی فاطمه لان الله فطمها وفطم محبیها من النار.

 

بحارالانوارج 43، ص 16

دخترم به این جهت فاطمه نامیده شد، که خداوند

او و دوستدارانش را ازآتش جهنم دورساخته است.

 

The holy prophet (May God bless him and hid descendants) said, ''verily, my daughter has been named Fatimah for god has weaned her and the ones who love her from the hellfire.''

The effect of one you are with

Being close to a scented rose or smelly animal, it is very unlikely that you are not

subject to it. Therefore, you'd better communicate with ones like the scented rose.

Even remembering a sour fruit in mind, saliva oozes, thus, care about your thoughts

and do not let whatever spring to mind.

In honer of all nice teachers

In honor of all nice teachers

 

We were all drowned in ignorance

We were all fallen in the sea of darkness

We were lost in the way of prosperity

We were all living blindly in ignorance

Teacher came with the light if faith

In his speech was Koran verses

Kindness affection came along with him

He was the sun of kindness for the children

He burnt like candle all the night

Like the sunlight and like the moonlight.

You I always wait for

 

                                                    you I always wait for

 

I always wait for you

Without being at a standstill of sitting

I always wait for you

Just as

I am always in way

I am always in motion

I am always in fight

You, like a moon

A star

A sun

 

Always there

And you shine from Badr

And you arrive from Kabba

And Kufa is this very Tehran

Where you arrive for the first time

And you draw your Tholfaqar

And you fight against injustice

I always wait for you

 

O' the promised justice

This alley

This avenue

This history

Has a line of your wait

And, it is tired

 

You are spectator

You know all

!Appear

Appear that I wait for you

Appear that I wait for you.

Mahdi is impatient

Mahdi is impatient

 

Earth lonely and Mahdi, impatience‏

Firmament lovelorn, days distressed

O' heart, Friday arrived, sweetheart didn't

The evening of anticipation didn't end

All hearts full of sigh, sorrow, and pain

All buttercups, faded and yellow        

All breathes tired and silent in heart

Woes soundless and roaring

No color of justice, nay of truth‏

Door and wall have a plan of darkness

Flower of kindness and affection faded‏

All heart overfilled with hatred

Dinner of orphans groaning and tear

Everyone jealousy of others palace‏

Bud faded in grass-plot

Rose wandered in lane of Rose-garden

Devil sits on sleeping hearts‏

Everywhere seeds of despair bloomed‏

Custom and religion rusted‏

There is no face to look at Master, even for an instant

Swear to tears of my eyes, moons, and suns

To the sighs and woes of imprisoned hearts

If Narcissus is all bitter for Hegira

Anemone is bereaved until doomsday

How to translate a text

How to translate a text

 

You may are enthusiastic about knowing what stages, a translation embraces; and by that discover how complex and technical translation is. Translation is an innovative process that cannot be confined to some fixed steps. However, the essential stages of this process go like this:

 

In order to translate a text, first of all, you need to read the source language text completely in order to get the general impression and understanding of it. Reading it once more helps you translate it much better. Then, you should highlight the new words that you have dealt with. Here in the next stage, you are expected to have a supreme dictionary in order to look up the meaning of the highlighted vocabularies. The fifth step is to interpret your text; I mean to translate it orally. Next, the main job begins, written translation. Sentence by sentence, you should get through the text, discover its meaning, analyze it, look for the best choice of words, take the idiomatic expressions into consideration and avoid translating them literally,  and try to render it into your target language. After this stage, you should read your translation loudly over again in order to know if read normal and sound native. Keep in mind; do not ignore fidelity in translation. Your translation must be exactly the translation of the text. You are not allowed to leave out or add any information. You have done a brilliant job if you go through this process thoroughly.

This is one of the best explanations of why God allows pain and suffering that I have seen.

This is one of the best explanations of why God allows pain and suffering that I have seen... 

A man went to a barbershop to have his haircut and his beard trimmed.
As the barber began to work, they began to have a good conversation.
They talked about so many things and various subjects.
When they eventually touched on the subject of God, the barber said:

"I don't believe that God exists."

"Why do you say that?" asked the customer. "Well, you just have to go out in the street to realize that God doesn't exist.
Tell me, if God exists, would there be so many sick people?
Would there be abandoned children?

 

If God existed, there would be neither suffering nor pain.
I can't imagine a loving God who would allow all of these things."

The customer thought for a moment, but did not respond because he did not want to start an argument.
The barber finished his job and the customer left the shop.


Just after he left the barbershop, he saw a man on the street with long, stringy, dirty hair and an untrimmed beard.
He looked dirty and unkempt. The customer turned back and entered the barbershop again and he said to the barber:

"You know what? Barbers do not exist."
"How can you say that?" asked the surprised barber.
"I am here, and I am a barber. And I just worked on you!"
"No!" the customer exclaimed. "Barbers don't exist because
if they did, there would be no people with dirty long hair and untrimmed beards, like that man outside."

"Ah, but barbers DO exist! That's what happens when people do not come to me."

"Exactly!" affirmed the customer. "That's the point! God, too, DOES exist!
That's what happens when people do not go to Him and don't look to Him for help.
That's why there's so much pain and suffering in the world."


If you think God exists, send this to other people---
If you think God does not exist, delete it!


BE BLESSED & BE A BLESSING TO OTHERS !!!!!!!

The writer of the following joke is a Persian native speaker, skilled at English language.

 An Iranian handsome boy immigrated to US speaking almost no English but thanks to (because of) his good look soon found a nice blond, beautiful girlfriend.

Once after dinner, she asked for the recipe of the AASH cooked by his mother. His translation of the ingredients from Persian to English follows:

My dear, my mother put in this Iranian soup:

Yellow wood (zard choobe)

Indian stamp (tamre hendi)

Wet blood (tar khoon)

Flower of a cow's tongue (gole gav zaboon)

.

Sometime later, when their relationship was going down the drain, He said to her: ''look, I very very love you

 

Or come and run with me to marry or please light my homework.

ِِِِAn interesting story happened in a hospital

In a hospital, two patients were lying on the beds in the same room. One of them had the permission to sit on his bed for an hour each day, but another one had to have no movement and just back into his roommate. They talked to each other for a couple of hours every afternoon, the one close to the window described whatever he could see out of the window to his roommate. Out of the window, there were a park, and a beautiful lake, pretty ducks, and swans were swimming in the lake and the children were entertained by their recreational boats. Old trees interestingly beautified the view outside and a great picture of the city could be seen in the distance. As the man close to the window was describing the details of  that magnificent sight, his roommate shut his eyes, lightening his mood by conceptualizing these scenes in mind.

Several days and weeks passed until the man lying close to the window passed away and hospital employees took his corpse out. Another man who was very upset asked to move his bed close to the window. The nurse did it. The man painfully dragged himself up to the window. However, surprisingly, he faced a tall wall.

The shocked man said to the nurse that his roommate always described lovely views behind the window. The nurse replied, but............. that man was blind!!!!!!
