অবৈধ উপার্জন , হালাল রুজি ও কিছু কথা

মানুষ যে কারণ গুলোর কারণে জাহান্নামে যাবে এর মধ্যে অন্যতম দুইটা কারণ হচ্ছে

১) নারী
২) অবৈধ উপার্জন ।

ইবাদত কবুল হওয়ার অন্যতম শর্ত হালাল রুজি, আর অবৈধ উপার্জন দিয়ে নিশ্চয়ই হালাল রুজি সম্ভব না।
সাহাবায়ে কেরামগন যাদের উপার্জন হালাল হবার ব্যাপারে সন্দিহান ছিলেন তাদের জন্য দু’আ করতেও অসম্মতি জানাতেন।

আসুন ৫ ওয়াক্ত নামাজ পড়ি, সুস্থ সু্ন্দর জীবন গড়ি ...( একটা ছোট্ট হিসাব )

একজন সুস্থ মানুষের সুস্থ থাকার জন্য সপ্তাহে কমপক্ষে ৩ থেকে ৪ দিন
৩০ থেকে ৪০ মিনিট হাঁটা উচিত !!!!

আসুন এবার একটা হিসাব কষি ...

Five Pillars of Islam

Iman/kalema/Faith

“La Ilaha Illallahu Muhammadur Rasulallah”

There is no God worthy of worship except Allah and Muhammad(SM) is His messenger. This declaration of faith is called the sahada, a simple formula which all the faithful pronounce. In Arabic, the first part is La Ilaha Illallah- there is no God except Allah; Ilaha(Allah) can refer to anything which we may be tempted to put in the place of Allah wealth, power and the like and then comes Illallah : except ‘Allah’, the source of all Creation. The second part of the Shahada is Muhammad Rasulallah.

Namaz/Prayer/Salat

Salat or Namaz is the name for the obligatory prayers which are performed five times a day and are a direct link between the worshipper and Allah. There is no hierarchical authority in Islam, and no priests, so the prayers are led by learned person who knows the Quran, chosen by the congregation. Prayers are said at dawn, noon, mid-afternoon, sunset & nightfall, and thus determine the rhythm of the entire day. Although it is preferable to worship together in a masjid, a Muslim may pray almost in any clean surface.

Roza/Fasting/Siam

Every year in the month of Ramadan, all Muslim fast from first light until sunset, abstaining from food & drinks. Those who are sick, elderly or on a journey and women who are pregnant or nursing are permitted to break the fast and make up an equal number of days later in the year. If they are physically unable to do this, they must feed a needy person for every day missed. Fasting is regarded principally as a method for self purification. By cutting oneself off from worldly comforts, even for a short time, a fasting person gains true sympathy with those who go hungry as well as growth in one’s spiritual life.

Hajj/Pilgrimage

The annual pilgrimage to Makkah- the Hajj- is an obligation only for those who are physically & financially capable to perform it. Nevertheless millions of people go to Makkah each year from every corner of the globe providing a unique opportunity for those different nationals to meet one another. Although Makkah is always filled with followers of Islam, the annual Hajj begins in the twelfth month of the Islamic year

Zakat/Charity

One of the most important principles of Islam is that all things belong to Allah, and that wealth is therefore held by human being in trust. The word ‘zakat’ means both ‘purifications’ and ‘growth’. Each Muslim calculated his or her own zakat individually. For most purposes this involves the payment each year of two and a half percent of one’s capital. A pious person may also give as much as he or she pleases as ‘sadaqa’, and does so preferably in secret. Although this ‘sadaqa, can be translated as ‘voluntary charity’ it has a wider meaning.

The Best Sites For Online Photo Editing & Photo Effects

Over the past few years, I’ve been accumulating links to — and experimenting with — various online photo editors and sites for photo effects. There are certainly a zillion of them out there.
I finally decided it was time to narrow all the links down into some kind of “The Best…” list, and have divided this post into two sections. The first part lists sites where you can upload your own images and, with no registration required (or, perhaps, in one or two instances, an extremely minimal registration process) easily edit the photo or add effects. The second section lists sites that I’ve specifically used with my English Language Learner students. These sites let you easily grab an image off the web, lets you add add a speech bubble to it, and then gives you a more or less permanent url address for your creation that you can post on a student or teacher website/blog.
I’m sure I will have missed some applications out there, so feel free to share your suggestions in the comments section. I suspect there are also additional “categories” photo apps out there besides the two I’m using.
Using my categories and criteria, here are my choices for The Best Sites For Online Photo-Editing & Photo Effects (they tend to be fairly similar — with a few exceptions that are primarily “resizers” — so I’m just going to list the links and not describe each one):

Money is a good Servant, but a Bad Master

Money is the second God — goes the saying. In a sense, that is true. The wheel of the whole universe of activities centers round one point — money. Money buys wealth, happiness, even love sometimes. Mankind all over the world kneels down to it. Truly speaking, there is hardly any job on earth that money can not accomplish. True, money is very powerful. But what is the nature of its power? Being a part and parcel of our daily life, does it deserve the honour (u) r we give it?

What is Web 2.0

The concept of "Web 2.0" began with a conference brainstorming session between O'Reilly and MediaLive International. Dale Dougherty, web pioneer and O'Reilly VP, noted that far from having "crashed", the web was more important than ever, with exciting new applications and sites popping up with surprising regularity. What's more, the companies that had survived the collapse seemed to have some things in common. Could it be that the dot-com collapse marked some kind of turning point for the web, such that a call to action such as "Web 2.0" might make sense? We agreed that it did, and so the Web 2.0 Conference was born.
In the year and a half since, the term "Web 2.0" has clearly taken hold, with more than 9.5 million citations in Google. But there's still a huge amount of disagreement about just what Web 2.0 means, with some people decrying it as a meaningless marketing buzzword, and others accepting it as the new conventional wisdom.
This article is an attempt to clarify just what we mean by Web 2.0.
In our initial brainstorming, we formulated our sense of Web 2.0 by example:

Web 1.0		Web 2.0
DoubleClick	-->	Google AdSense
Ofoto	-->	Flickr
Akamai	-->	BitTorrent
mp3.com	-->	Napster
Britannica Online	-->	Wikipedia
personal websites	-->	blogging
evite	-->	upcoming.org and EVDB
domain name speculation	-->	search engine optimization
page views	-->	cost per click
screen scraping	-->	web services
publishing	-->	participation
content management systems	-->	wikis
directories (taxonomy)	-->	tagging ("folksonomy")
stickiness	-->	syndication

how to be a leader

People have many different definitions.
 Here's a few to get you thinking:

• Leadership is guiding and showing the the way for other people and helping them work together to find direction.  It's getting people to cooperate and do things together.  It means you can lead a group.
• Leadership is the ability to be looked upon as a role model.
• Being a leader is being able to stand up for what you believe in.  It means you help to make new ideas, you don't just follow old one.
• Leadership is the ability to lead people or represent them.  It all starts with responsibility.  Your actions not only affect you, but everyone you represent.

Top Brain Foods

 Did you know there are certain foods you can eat to make your brain function better? It’s true.

Just like every other organ in your body your brain needs proper nutrition to function at peak levels.

There is a wide list of factors to consider when deciding if a food is brainy enough. Foods that are good for your brain can improve your mood, make you more motivated and improve your overall mental performance.

We all know a diet that is high in fat is bad for us. Not only does it wreak havoc on our physical body it can also be a cause of depression and aggression. However, when you really pay attention to the types of fats you are consuming fats can be very beneficial.

 Top brain foods contain fatty acids called Omega 3. Diets that are laden with the wrong kind of fat have been proven to undermine intelligence. In contrast people who consume good fats have higher intelligence.

These good for you Omega 3 fatty acids are found predominantly in fish, nuts, fruits and vegetables. There are also dairy products, drinks such as green tea and beans that can be beneficial to your brain.

Here are a few of the most common in each category.

Fish - The two best brain food fish are salmon and tuna. These two species are especially high in the good kind of fat. One thing to consider with fish however is that because of mercury content you should eat these types of fish just a few times week.

Nuts - Many nuts including cashews, almonds, pumpkin seeds, walnuts and peanuts can be food for your brain. Your brain loves nuts and seeds and gets a lot from them. They are chocked full of things to keep your brain feeling young and sharp.

Fruits - When it comes to fruit your top  brain health choices are blueberries, cherries, acai berries and cranberries. Fruits that are high in antioxidants provide great nutrition for the brain.

Vegetables - The top brain vegetables are brussel sprouts, eggplant and peas. Tomatoes, spinach and cauliflower are also solid choices for giving your brain a little extra nutrition.

Beyond the given examples there are many other foods that offer you good nutrition and can be considered brain foods. The idea is to try to eat at least one of them daily if not more. The other healthy thing you can do from a nutritional point of view for your brain is whenever possibly avoid bad fats. These fats make your brain lazy and your body unhealthy.
