“No no. George Bush and Tony Blair are not Christians: religious people believe in the prophets, peace be upon them; Bush and Blair believe in the profits, and how to get a piece of them.”

 إِنَّ الـطَبيـبَ بِطِبِّـهِ وَدَوائِـهِ
    لا يَـستَطيعُ دِفاعَ مَكـروهٍ أَتى

    ما لِلطَبيبِ يَموتُ بِالداءِ الَّـذي
    قَد كانَ يُبرِئُ جُرحَهُ فيما مَضى

    ذَهَبَ المُداوِي وَالمُداوَى وَالَّـذي
    جَلَبَ الدَواءَ وَباعَهُ وَمَنِ اِشتَرى

Truly, the Doctor, with his medications and cures
Is powerless to prevent the coming of maladies –

Look how the Doctor dies by the same sickness
That he had “treated” in the past!

Gone are the ill, the caretakers, and those who
Brought the drugs, sold them, and those who purchased.

DeenPort – Iffat Younus Reports That Faraz Rabbani Said This:

“Before you act, consider what you are doing and why; for whom are you acting? Stir up a sense of thankfulness, a sense of longing, hope,
fear, slavehood. Bring to mind the majesty, tremendousness, beauty and mercy of Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala. And then begin your action. So that moment before you act, the moment in which you turn your heart to Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala is of the greatest moments of your life. And if we make ourselves accustomed to keep striving to turn to Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala in those precious moments we’ll find that our lives will be coloured with the dye of spiritual favour from Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala, we’ll find our hearts and our entire life being enveloped in divine assistance and divine favour. And we’ll find light and serenity and contentment in our life.” [DeenPort Messages]

I have noticed that animals, like babies and young children, can make otherwise rather serious individuals act like complete fools.
