"Anwaar-e-Suhaili is a well known Persian book.In it has been narrated a very thought provoking story:
Once a man saw a crow whose wings were cut.He thought, "poor thing,how is it going to survive?From where shall it get its food?"Hardly a moment had passed when that person spotted an eagle carrying some prey in its beak.The eagle came closer,Landed and fed the crow.
On seeing this the man though "this how Allah provides for his creatures,so why should I worry about earning a living.Allah will provide for me."So he sat down and remained idle.Some days passed but yet the person did not get anything.One wise man said to him "O servant of Allah,you were shown two birds,one injured crow and eagle.Why did you prefer to become like the crows?Why did you not think about becoming like the eagle who not only eats himself but also feeds others who are in need?
This story illustrates very well the real nature of 'Tawakkul'.If anyone has yet means of livelihood at his disposal,then he should not give up those means.His case is a like that of the eagle .He should not only fulfil his own needs but also look after others."

When I was a little Boy,I remember one day in particular when she had made breakfast.She must have been very tired.My mom placed a plat of eggs,and rather burned toast in front of my dad.I remember waiting to see if anyone noticed.Yet all my dad did was reach for his toast,smile at my mom, and ask me how was I ready for school.I don't remember what I replied,but I do remember watching him smear butter and jam on that toast and eat every bite!
When I got up from the table,I remember hearing my mom apologize to my dad for burning the toast.And I'll never forget what he said: 'Baby, I love burned toast.'
Later that night ,I went to kiss Daddy and I asked him if he really liked his toast burned.He wrapped me in his arms and said, 'Your Momma works hard day after day and she's real tired.And besides a little burnt toast never hurt anyone!'You know, life is full of imperfect things....and imperfect people.I'm not the best football player either.
What I've learned over the years is that learning to accept each other's faults - and choosing to celebrate each other's differences - is the one of the most important keys to creating a healthy, growing, and lasting relationship.
We should learn to take the good,The bad, and the ugly parts of your life and lay them at the feet of Allah.Because in the end,He's the only One who will be able to give you a relationship where burnt toast isn't a deal-breaker!We could extend this to any relationship in fact - as understanding is the base of any relationship.Be it a husband-wife or parent -child or friendship!!!!!!"
Once there was a king who told some of his workers to dig a pond.Once the pond was dug ,the king made an announcement to his people saying that one person from each household has to bring a glass of milk during the night and pour it into the pond.So ,the pond should be full of milk by the morning.After receiving the order, everyone went home.One man prepared to take the milk during the night.He thought that since everyone will bring milk, he could just hide a glass of water and pour inside the pond .Because it will be dark at night,no one will notice.So he quickly went and poured the water in the pond and came back.In the morning,the king came to visit the pond and to his surprise the pond was only filled with water!What has happened is that everyone was thinking like the other man that " I don't have to put the milk,someone else will do it."
Dear Friends,when it comes to help the Religion of Allah,do not think that others will take care of it.Rather ,it starts from you ,if you don't do it, no one else will do it.So ,change yourself to the way of Allah to serve Him and that will make the difference.
One day long ago,some sailors set out to sea in their sailing ship.One of them brought his pet monkey along for the long journey.
When they were far out at sea,a terrible storm overturned their ship.Every fell into the sea,and the monkey was sure that he would drown.Suddenly a Dolphin appeared and pick him up.
They soon reached the island and the monkey came down from the
dolphin’s back. The dolphin asked the monkey, “Do you know this place?”
The monkey replied, “Yes, I do. In fact, the king of the island is my best
friend. Do you know that I am actually a prince?”
Knowing that no one lived on the island, the dolphin said, “Well, well, so
you are a prince! Now you can be a king!”
The monkey asked, “How can I be a king?”
As the dolphin started swimming away, he answered, “That is easy. As you are the only creature on
this island, you will naturally be the king!”
Those who lie and boast may end up in trouble
Valentine poem
Love may be beautiful,love may be bliss but I only slept with you,because I was pissed.I Thought that I could love no other until,that is ,I met your brother.
Roses are red ,violets are blue,sugar is sweet,and so are you.But the roses are wilting,the violets are dead,the sugar bowl's empty and so is your head,of loving beauty you float with grace If only you could hide your face.kind,intelligent ,loving and hot; This describes everything you are not.I want to feel your sweet embrace but don't take that paper bag off your face.I love your smile,your face,and your eyes Damn,I am good at telling lies!My darling, my lover,my beautiful wife : Marrying you screwed up my life.
I see your face when I am dreaming .That's why I always wake up screaming.My love,you take my breath away.What have you stepped in to smell this way?
My fellings for you no words can tell,Except for maybe "go to hell".
what inspired this amorous rhyme?Two parts vodka,one part lime.

The Train are always late
A man was complaining to a railroad engineer.
What's the use of having a train schedule if the trains are always late.
The railroad engineer replied.
How would we know they were late,If we didn't have a schedule?
