?

no

only u? how ?

i am the only one, inshAllaah some of my family would be muslims too, in some point but only Allah(swt) knows...

i did become muslim, because when i was a ''christian'' i never believed in Jesus(as) that he would be God or God's son, i held him as a prophet and God as one God, and then i one day started to read bible and got interested in islam

Alhamdulillaah

nice mashaa Allah

Alhamdulillaah

Can I publish the conversation that I had with you in my blog brother?

ofcourse, but only one thing?

of course*

How does your family treat you after you became Muslim? How old are you brother

i am 17 but my mother supports me, because she is taught to respect every human, without looking to the color of skin or to religion or cultural background,

and my brothers are just the same as always

Alhamdulillaah

so how did u become convinced about Quran? did u read it online?

7:40pm

no at first i borrowed finnish translation, but it was very poor because of finnish dictionary and then i borrowed the english translation later, and it proved me...

and i started to listen suras and then i kinda started to ''love'' them because it was so beautiful, and it holds the word which is wise and the literature is so much different from the bible, it amazed me...

which school do u go to bro?

i do not go to school

how come

7:47pm

i study islam in home, i have started praying a few weeks ago Alhamdulillaah and i try to gain knowledge of islam, so that i could help some ppl and be one who knows a little bit of something

inshAllaah

ok bro I am publishing all this online and I am putting a picture of u in the internet. What do u say to that?

mmm... could you put me as anonumous?

you know i do not want to get known you know, not to insult you but you know

thank you

so I can put *****?

put a muslim brother, ok?

so when do u plan to get married

inshAllaah when it comes, no hurry but i would like to do so much but the marriage is one of greatest things in islam, you know in our deen

but inshAllaah i would get married when it comes only Allah(swt) knows, but i would want to make things before marriage

are you planning name change?

7:53pm

i do not know, you know my mother said that it would insult her if i would but maybe, but i do not want to insult her as she gave me this name so i will bear it. InshAllaah many would come to see this wonderful deen, because nowadays the rest of the world intends to give bad light to islam, but with Allaah(swt) is the victory He is the one who knows

7:59pm

u hav never dated a girl or did something like that right?

i have had ''girl friends'' but it was just like seeing and this, but nothing more

what made u feel that it was wrong to do smth with them

God

i have always been religous, not so much like now as muslim you pray 5 times a day, but i have always had this, you know thing that i think before acting and i think what it does in a long shot, not just today and tomorrow

what school have u been going ?

at the time?

that time i mean

at what school have u done ur studies

class 5,6,7 etc

in perno, and in mikael, mikael is school which is full of observation classes

u know before I met u and some converts to Islam I was upset very upset in Finland that ppl who claim to be religious- Christians- have GFs and they livetogether

al Hamdulillah Allah placed righteous ppl in this beautiful city

you know, from my opinnion christians live, as ''they will' and they shape christianity by their own feelings they do not that much think that what God says, they do what they feel to be right, but of course there are rightful among them too inshAllaah would be, but only Allah(swt) knows

how did ur mother behave the first time u became Muslim?

she only said that i should be cautious of what group i do go out with, because there are these ''radical'' muslims who do what they feel and do not follow Allah's(swt) word like it should be followed...

it is the only thing she said... i mean that i should be cautious, nothing more

So welcome brother towards Islam- submission to the beautiful eternal graceful life the way Allah wanted us to be. May Allah reward us with Jannnat al Firdaoss... Aaameen.

1km+ tall Kingdom Tower in Jeddah

Prophet Muhammed (peace be upon him) said the truth and the proof is that he said among the signs of the Hour mentioned by the Noble Messenger of Allah – Allah bless and greet him and his Family and Companions – in Sahih al-Bukhari is “when the destitute (al-buhm) camelherds compete in building tall structures.” Another version in al-Bukhari has: “when the barefoot and the naked are the top leaders (lit. “heads”) of the people.” In Sahih Muslim: “you shall see the barefoot, naked, indigent (al-`âla) shepherds compete in building tall structures.” Another version in Muslim states: “when the naked and barefoot are the top leaders of the people.” A third version in Muslim has: “when you see that the barefoot and naked, the deaf and dumb are the kings of the earth.”

Ibn Hajar said in commenting this passage of the hadith in Fath al-Bari: It was said that “bear-foot and naked,” “deaf and dumb” are their attributes by way of hyperbole, showing how coarse they are. That is, they did not use their hearing or sight in anything concerning their Religion even though they are of perfectly sound senses. The Prophet’s (saws) words: “The heads of the people” means the kings of the earth. Abu Farwas’ narration names the kings explicitly. What is meant by them is the people of the desert country, as was made explicit in Sulayman al-Taymi’s and other narrations: “Who are the barefoot and naked?” He answered: “The Bedouin Arabs.”

Al-Tabarani relates through Abu Hamza, on the authority of Ibn `Abbas from the Prophet Muhammad, sallahu alayhi wa sallam, that “one of the signs of the change of the Religion is the affectation of eloquence by the rabble and their betaking to palaces in big cities.” Al-Qurtubi said: “What is meant here is the prediction of a reversal in society whereby the people of the desert country will take over the conduct of affairs and rule every region by force. They will become extremely rich and their primary concern will be to erect tall building and take pride in them. We have witnessed this in our time as well as the import of the hadith: “The hour will

not rise until the happiest man will be the depraved son of a depraved father (lukka` ibn lukka`),” and also “if the leadership is entrusted to those unfit for it, then

expect the hour,” both found in the authentic collections.”

Umaar bin al-Khataab (RA) said: "We were the most disgraced of people, and Allah granted us honor with Islam. No matter how much we seek honor in other than that

which Allah honored us with, Allah shall disgrace us (once again)."

Australia develops most environmentally friendly Helicopter

Australia is making a new history in aviation by developing affordable environmentally friendly helicopters.

As we know it Helicopters are handy little vehicles, they can hover and they can land in difficult to reach places and in congested areas. However there are a lot of disadvantages with current helicopter design.

They are noisy, and they are enormous gas guzzlers (a Bell 206 L4 helicopter travels just 1.47 km per litre - a family car travels 10-13kms per litre.) When their tail rotors fail the chopper goes out of control usually resulting in a crash landing. They're complex to control, extensive training is required. It is easier to learn to fly an aeroplane than a helicopter. Helicopters vibrate. An unadjusted helicopter can easily vibrate so much that it will shake itself apart.

Coaxial rotor helicopters can solve a lot of these problems but up till now they've been so expensive and technical that only the military has been able to afford them. Coaxial rotors are a pair of rotors turning in opposite directions, but mounted on a mast, with the same axis of rotation.

The Co-axial counter rotating helicopter offers considerable advantages over traditional models:

The absence of a tail rotor with the inclusion of a coaxial main rotor makes these craft more stable, more manoeuvrable, quieter, safer and provides a better power to weight ratio. The rotor system has greater lift and is much more efficient than traditional helicopters.

Technological advances and a lot of research and development have allowed the Wieland Helicopter Company to build a coaxial counter rotating helicopter that is competitive in the civilian market. Running costs, particularly with the electric motor version, are significantly lower than traditional helicopters.

Since the WHT range of helicopters are much easier to control and to fly, pilot training is much simpler and therefore takes a lot less time and money to complete.

The electric version of the helicopter will be powered by batteries that run an electric motor to turn the co-axial rotors

Worlds most Advanced Electric Car- Nur Majan from Oman

Nur Majan: first electric car in Oman and one of the most innovative in the world

Sultan bin Hamad al Aamri, CEO, Nur Majan, has said his company is still waiting for permission from the Royal Oman Police to manufacture the first electric car in the Arab world to be named “Nur Majan”.

Nur Majan- artists impression

He said initial approvals had been obtained earlier from government bodies concerned including the Ministry of Commerce and Industry and Ministry of Environment and Climatic Affairs.

He said the company will build its factory in Barka and plans to produce around 120 cars annually at a total cost of RO 16.2 million.

The electrically powered vehicle to be made by the company will be environment-friendly. It will need its first maintenance only after 21 years from the time of purchase, he claimed.

The car can go from zero km to 100 kms in 4 seconds and gets 3,600 kilometres per charge.

The cooling system is operable 24 hours a day by solar cell panels.

After the company starts manufacturing, three cars will be sent to Florida for safety testing and certification, the CEO said.

Sultan bin Hamad al Aamri the CEO of Nur Majan- previously a high end watch maker.

Sultan bin Hamad al Amri was destined to do big things from childhood. He proved his prodigy by making a car at the age of 16.

Interestingly, the CEO of Nur Majan achieved this fete though he had no formal training in the science. Sultan, who claims to be the first watch manufacturer in the Gulf region, showed a newspaper clipping of an Arabic daily, featuring his rare achievement in his teens.

“I always wanted to set up a company which would work on new designs just like the Japanese and European companies do.”

This passion to come out with some thing new has taken Sultan to tread on a path, which is less travelled by others. If all goes well, the 41 year old watch maker will hit the stands with his new electric car by 2014.

“In 2008, I saw the Indian electric car Reva. I was not impressed with its design and the performance. At that point, I seriously thought of making a car and sought the help of a Jordanian engineer and visited car plants in Japan and the US.”

Since then there was no looking back for Sultan. He has already got the preliminary approvals for manufacturing the car from the Ministry of Commerce and Industry and the Ministry of Environment and Climate Affairs in Oman. He is now waiting for the green signal from the ROP, who will test-drive the car.

On his part, Sultan is progressing well with his dream car. “Most of the work for the car’s body and the engine is done. We will start the exterior design soon. The car will be ready for testing next year,” said Sultan. Nur Majan – the proposed name of the car and name of the company – will build ten cars initially.

Of which, three will be sent to Florida in the US for accident testing and three will be given to various ministries in Oman for testing. Once he secures the nod from concerned authorities, Sultan plans to gift a car to His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said. Nur Majan plans to make 120 cars per year, costing RO30,000 to RO35,000.

In 1999, he started making watches under the company name Bar Majan. However, he rechristened it as Nur Majan in 2001 – the name of his youngest daughter. The first watch manufacturing company of the Gulf had the sultanate’s map as its design.

Currently, the company has copyrights for 157 watch designs. The price ranges from RO70 to RO3,000. Nur Majan has presence in the entire Gulf region and the company is currently making special watches catering to Kuwaiti customers with that country’s national landmarks in design.

When Sultan tried his hands in watch-making, there were many puritans who said that people will not accept a watch which bears a Gulf-origin tag. However, he proved them wrong by making Nur Majan a household name in the entire Middle East within 11 years. “I always wanted to come up with something new.” For the record, Sultan has come out with a solar-powered cell phone, but had to stop its production due to high cost of molding.

But Sultan is not one who gives up easily. He plans to take up the project again, when things turn to his advantage. Another first for Sultan is the production of land lines phone which resembles Oman’s geographical shape.

Sultan, who was born in Barka, went to India to study English language in 1981 and completed his secondary education from the well-known Kodaikanal International School. Sultan started his own business in Oman in 1999.

Sultan, who has two daughters and a son, keeps himself busy with his magnum opus and values time very much. “One should learn something every hour.” Sultan’s personal collection of cars includes a Ferrari, a Land Rover Sports and a Lamborghini Gerardo, which is his favourite.

Interestingly, he himself is designing his luxurious four-story house.

Sultan’s dream does not end with the electric car. He has already done the spadework to come out with a car which can fly. “I don’t know if you will believe it or not but I would like to make something which is not an aircraft but it would be something like a car which could fly.”
