DIEGO Maradona is stepping up his campaign against the world's superpower with the news he wants to meet with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
Maradona, an outspoken critic of George Bush, gave a signed shirt to an Iranian diplomat after a match in Buenos Aires on Saturday. The 47-year-old is an admirer of Cuban leader Fidel Castro and left-wing Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez "I've already met Fidel and Chavez, now I need to meet your president Ahmadinejad.

[color=green][b]Christmas is here
Tis the season to be jolly
and festive
Peace and good will to all men and women
It’s finally here
But for Muslims it holds many fears
Dilemmas
And tears
How to reject Christmas cards without being rude
Whether to send any in return
To reciprocate greetings
Or just smile and nod and appear non-committal
Christmas party is the highlight of the year
All dressed up and equal
Mistletoe and wine

A Mistake Worth its Weight in Gold
From the Original Arabic Piece by Adel bin Muhammad al-Abdul 'Aalee
Translated by Abu Dujanah
One of the Salaf entered a field, hungry and tired, so he wanted to eat, and his stomach was 'rumbling'. He saw an apple tree, and picked an apple to eat. He ate half of it under the protection of Allah, then he drank from the river near the field. After that, he suddenly realised that he was not aware of what he did due to his hunger, and thought to himself: Woe to you! How can you eat someone else's provision without permission.

This poem discusses the issue of things people say who when they dont want to receive dawah and discuss about Islam.
Keep your religion to yourself
That's what the Secularists say
Just fast and pray
And let everyone else do as they please
It's none of your business
All this fitna and sin
Focus on yourself
Self perfection
And accountability
Allah is the one who guides
not you
So why bother
Are we not Muslims?
Who pray and fast in Ramadhan too
Evil
What are you talking about?
Are you perfect?
Or just like us
So please don't make a fuss
