The Most Beautiful

“ If you have a flu; please stand in a line back by yourself, so you won’t infect anybody”! <<Rewind Standing in that line still, trying to focus and achieve some status of “5oshoo3: خشوع”, this little cute girl pushed me a bit with her small body to create a spot for herself in the line (she is hardly higher than my waist) and shook my grounds. She was wearing this nice 7ejab, and standing... [read more]

Abusing Religious Commitment

Sun, 23 Aug 2009 00:07:17 GMT

Ramadan Mubarak and may Allah grant us all the peace in this month, enriched with his mercy and blessings, Amen. The following conversation took place between me and a wise religious coworker whom I highly respect and value: - The most thing that shocks me man, is the fact that a guy who’s not religious at all proposes to a girl who covers...

That Boy

Mon, 10 Aug 2009 09:47:00 GMT

He opened the door screaming in a joyful tone: “Mar7aba”. I turned my back to see the intruder as he seemed to know me for greeting me in that loud manner. All I saw was a highly unorganized looking guy, shaggy hair in desperate need of some haircut, long randomly growing beard, some white cheap T-shirt with jeans pants hanging to the floor. I kept waiting for the administration to show... [read more]

He's doing well

Sat, 27 Jun 2009 23:33:00 GMT

A side pause of his relaxed face was more than good enough to assure her he’s fine. It was the best feeling since a while during which she’s been extensively exhausted with materialistic daily routines. Suddenly; the numbness stopped, and she became occupied with the question: does he still believe like the good old days? Inshallah yes. [read more]

Brightness Everywhere

How could you travel the extra mile further if you cannot push just one step forward, or if you go to sleep not wishing to wake up and having no energy once you wake up to pull your feet to pursue basic living activities? How would it feel if you try to run and the best you could achieve is crawl very slowly and only for few meters that would hardly move you away from the sight of evil? What... [read more]

Re-Union

She met him three times, after years of being unable to establish the minimal normal communication between two persons. Their meetings were kept confidential but she was so happy about such courageous reunions. Before their meeting she would get excited about it like children waiting for Eid. During the meeting she would experience a unique happiness never experienced neither... [read more]

What is Excellence? What is delivering Quality about? Quality is to consistently apply the same structured well defined methodology that has been proved previously to succeed in solving a problem and achieving a predetermined set of goals. Excellence is not to ask the question: “What has gone wrong?” The question is rather: “What has not gone right?” Identifying problems and areas of weakness... [read more]

I will forever have a story to tell!

Mon, 02 Feb 2009 10:57:00 GMT

- Do you still have a story to tell? - Indeed I will forever have a story to tell. A story of agony, tyranny and death; a story of a dream that will never come true because it was never formulated in the first place; and a story of a story that will forever be told, may it save... [read more]

Gaza: The End of Us

Sat, 24 Jan 2009 01:38:33 GMT

Looking for beloveds, laying in morgues, buried in cemeteries, recovering from wounds, searching for shelters, building new homes, removing ruins, documenting the tough phase details, etc. The entire world must admit; the end result was Palestinians maintaining dignity. Helpless and ashamed of being helpless. While they martyrized, went through tremendous pain and were deprived from the... [read more]
