DUA
The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said that one should say, “Allahumma ajirni min an-nar,” (‘O Allah, save me from the Fire!’) seven times after Maghrib and Fajr prayers. He told us (Allah bless him and give him peace) that saying it at Maghrib would grant one protection from the Fire if one died at night; and saying it at Fajr would grant one protection from the Fire if one died during the day. [Sunan Abi Dawud]

GEORGETOWN, Guyana – Guyana's top health official is urging popular singers to stop soaking their lyrics in rum.
Health Minister Leslie Ramsammy says recent radio hits such as "Bring De Rum" and "Rum Till I Die" are undermining efforts to reduce alcohol abuse in Guyana.
The health ministry is conducting surveys to evaluate alcohol's influence on popular culture, including chutney, a style of dance music laced with Caribbean and East Indian rhythms.
Ramsammy said Saturday that he was not suggesting a ban on rum-drinking songs but called for artists to focus more on positive messages.

Gandhi and Islam
Gandhi and Islam
Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, the spiritual and political leader of India, worked tirelessly to make India independent of British rule. His teaching was based on the power of love.
He organized campaigns to defy the government by peaceful means because he did not believe in the use of force. He once said: "An eye for an eye ends up making the whole world blind." His belief in non-violence was based on his faith that truth is God. India became independent in 1947 largely as a result of his leadership......

The Weddings Today - Rev. Dr Giles Fraser
"But the truth is: most clergy I know prefer taking funerals to taking weddings. And this isn't because we're essentially miserable or mawkish. Modern funerals - however painful - still have a beauty, a quiet dignity and a moral seriousness that is quite absent from many of the weddings that we get to take...."

7 Must Read Success Lessons from Dale Carnegie:
http://www.dumblittleman.com/2010/08/7-must-read-success-lessons-from-dale.html
7 Must Read Success Lessons from Dale Carnegie:
1. Inaction Breeds Fear
"Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.”
Get busy today! If you have a good idea, put it to the test. Inaction breeds further inaction, and action breeds further action. One thing is sure: if you’re going to succeed, you’re going to have to take massive action, so get busy today!
2. Make Good Use of Your Time
"Instead of worrying about what people say of you; why not spend time trying to accomplish something they will admire.”
Spending time thinking about how people perceive you is a vast waste of valuable time. Concentrate your time in making a difference, and people will surely admire you.
3. Failure is the Stepping Stone to Success
“Develop success from failures. Discouragement and failure are two of the surest stepping stones to success.”
Often those with the greatest defeats also have the greatest victories. You must use discouragement and failure as tools to move you from the pit to the palace.
4. We Determine Our Happiness
"Happiness doesn't depend on any external conditions; it is governed by our mental attitude.”
Happiness is a decision; it is not based on what’s going on around us. It’s based solely on what’s going on inside of us. Our happiness is based on the thoughts that we choose to give our attention to; the thoughts that we choose to harbor. Dale Carnegie said, “It isn't what you have, or who you are, or where you are, or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about.”
5. Remember That Everything You Do Sends a Message
"There are four ways, and only four ways, in which we have contact with the world. We are evaluated and classified by these four contacts: what we do, how we look, what we say, and how we say it.”
Everything you do sends a message. The way you dress sends a message, the way you comb your hair sends a message.
Determine the message you want to send to the world, and then package yourself to ensure that message is being sent. Send a message of success and the world will receive it.
6. Do What You Enjoy
"People rarely succeed unless they have fun in what they are doing.”
If you want to succeed, don’t do it for the money. Money is not a sufficient enough motivation to pull you over the many hurdles that are requisite for you to achieve success. If you want to succeed, spend your time doing what you enjoy. This way, when you succeed, you will enjoy your success.
7. Take a Chance
"The man who goes farthest is generally the one who is willing to do and dare.”
You have to take chances! You have to sometimes risk being embarrassed or risk failure in order to succeed.
Success requires everything that you are; you have to put it all out there. Dare to be different, dare to succeed. Carnegie said, “We all have possibilities we don't know about. We can do things we don't even dream we can do.” But if you never dare, you will never know your potential
