We convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married,
have a baby, then another.


Then we are frustrated that the kids aren't old enough and we'll be more
content when they are.


After that, we're frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with. We
will certainly be happy when they are out of that stage.


We tell ourselves that our life will be complete when our spouse gets
his or her act together, when we get a nicer car, when we are able to go
on a nice vacation or when we retire.


The truth is there's no better time to be happy than right now. If not
now, when? Your life will always be filled with challenges.

It's best to admit this to yourself and decide to be happy anyway.
Happiness is the way.


So, treasure every moment that you have and treasure it more because you
shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your time with
... and remember that time waits for no one.


So, stop waiting ...
Until your car or home is paid off.
Until you get a new car or home.
Until your kids leave the house.
Until you go back to school.
Until you finish school.
Until you lose 10 lbs.
Until you gain 10 lbs.
Until you get married.
Until you get a divorce.
Until you have kids.
Until you retire.
Until summer..
Until spring.
Until winter.
Until fall.
Until you die.

There is no better time than right now to be happy. Happiness is a
journey, not a destination. So work like you don't need money, love like
you've never been hurt, and, dance like no one's watching.

HAVE A NICE DAY !!

Mother: Why on earth did you swallow the money I gave you?
Little Johnny: You said it was my lunch money.

*******************************************************************
Little Johnny was eating breakfast one morning and got to thinking
about things. “Mommy,
mommy, why has daddy got so few hairs on his head?” he asked his
mother.
“He thinks a lot,” replied his mother, pleased with herself for coming
up with a good answer to her
husband's baldness.
Or she was until Johnny thought for a second and asked, “So why do you
have so much hair?”
*******************************************************************

There was a job opening in the country’s most prestigious law firm and
it finally came
down to Robert and Paul.
Both graduated from law school. Both came from good
families. Both
were equally attractive and well spoken. It was up to the senior
partner to choose one, so
he took each aside and asked, “Why did you become a lawyer?” In
seconds, he chose
Paul.
Baffled, Robert took Paul aside. “I don’t understand why I was
rejected. When Mr.
Armstrong asked me why I became a lawyer, I said that I had the
greatest respect for the
law, that I’d lay down my life for the Constitution and that all I
wanted was to do right by
my clients. What in the world did you tell him?”
“I said I became a lawyer because of my hands,” Paul replies.
“Your hands? What do you mean?”
“Well, I took a look one day and there wasn’t any money in either of
them!”

Three salesmen were driving cross-country when their car broke down far from civilization.
After walking for some distance they came to a farmhouse.
They asked the farmer if there was a service station nearby.
He replied that there was one in town but that it wouldn't be open until the next day.
He offered to let them stay at his house that night,
on one condition.
“Don't draw attention to my daughter; she's very sensitive because she was born without any ears.”
After agreeing to his wishes, the salesmen spent the night with the farmer.
The next morning at the breakfast table the daughter noticed that the salesmen were staring at her.
“What are you looking at?” she demanded.
The first salesman replied, “I was looking at your beautiful smile, it's important to take care of your teeth so you don't have to wear dentures.”
The second salesman said, “I was looking at your thick curly hair, it's important to take care of your hair so you don't go bald and have to wear a wig.”
The third said, “I was looking at your clear blue eyes, it's important to take care of your eyes . . . Lord knows you can't wear glasses.”
*****************************************************
There are several men in the locker room of a private club after exercising.
Suddenly a cell phone that was on one of the benches rings, a man picks it up and the
following conversation ensues
“Hello?”
“Honey, It's me. Are you at the club?”
“Yes.”
“Great! I am at the mall 2 blocks from where you are. I saw a beautiful mink coat. It is absolutely gorgeous!! Can I buy it?”
“What's the price?”
“Only $1,500.00.”
“Well, OK, go ahead if you like it that much...”
“Ahhh, and I also stopped by the Mercedes dealership and saw the 2001 models. I saw
one I really liked. I spoke with the salesman and he gave me a really good price
and
since we need to exchange the BMW that we bought last year.”
“What price did he quote you?”
“Only $60,000...”
“OK, but for that price I want it with all the options.”
“Great! Before we hang up, something else.”
“What?”
“It might look like a lot, but I was reconciling your bank account and I stopped
by the
real estate agent this morning and I saw the house we had looked at last year --
it's on
sale! Remember? The one with a pool English Garden, acre of park area,
beachfront
property . . .”
“How much are they asking?”
“Only $450,000. A magnificent price and I see that we have that much in the bank to cover it!”
“Well, than go ahead and buy it, but just bid $420,000. OK?”
“OK, sweetie... Thanks! I'll see you later!! I love you!!!”
“Bye, I love you, too!”
The man hangs up, closes the phone's flap and raises his hand while holding the phone and asks to all those present.
“Does anyone know who this phone belongs to?”

Presentation wrote by Ahmed Haroon, poem wrote by synonymous

This is what we neglect, deny and ignore,
This is what we laughed at and did not explore;

This poem is from a friend that loves you and
wishes you have a happy life and a good end

ARE YOU READY

It was early in the morning at four,
When death knocked upon a bedroom door,

Who is there? The sleeping one cried,
I'm Malakul Mawt, let me inside,

At once, the man began to shiver,
As one sweating in deadly fever,

He shouted to his sleeping wife,
Don't let him take away my life,

Please go away, O Angel of Death!
Leave me alone; I'm not ready yet.

My family on me depends,
Give me a chance, O please prepense!

The angel knocked again and again,
Friend! I'll take your life without a pain,

Tis your soul Allah requires,
I come not with my own desire.

Bewildered, the man began to cry,
O Angel I'm so afraid to die,

I'll give you gold and be your slave,
Don't send me to the unlit grave.

Let me in, O Friend! The Angel said,
Open the door; get up from your bed,

If you do not allow me in,
I will walk through it, like a Jinn.

The man held a gun in his right hand,
Ready to defy the Angel's stand.


I'll point my gun, towards your head,
You dare come in; I'll shoot you dead.

By now the Angel was in the room,
Saying, O Friend! Prepare for you doom.

Foolish man, Angels never die,
Put down your gun and do not sigh.

Why are you afraid! Tell me O man,
To die according to Allah's plan?

Come smile at me, do not be grim,
Be Happy to return to Him.

O Angel! I bow my head in shame,
I had no time to take Allah's Name.

From morning till dusk, I made my wealth,
Not even caring for my health.

Allah's command I never obeyed,
Nor five times a day I ever prayed.

A Ramadan came and a Ramadan went,
But no time had I to repent.

The Hajj was already FARD on me,
But I would not part with my money.

All charities I did ignore,
Taking usury more and more.

Sometimes I sipped my favorite wine,
With flirting women I sat to dine.

O Angel! I appeal to you,
Spare my life for a year or two.

The Laws of Quran I will obey,
I'll begin SALAT this very day.

My Fast and Hajj, I will complete,
And keep away from self-conceit.

I will refrain from usury,
And give all my wealth to charity,

Wine and wenches I will detest,
Allah's oneness I will attest.

We Angels do what Allah demands,
We cannot go against His commands.

Death is ordained for everyone,
Father, mother, daughter or son.

I'm afraid this moment is your last,
Now be reminded, of your past,

I do understand your fears,
But it is now too late for tears.

You lived in this world, two score and more,
Never did you, your people adore.

Your parents, you did not obey,
Hungry beggars, you turned away.

Your two ill-gotten, female offspring,
In nightclubs, for livelihood they sing.

Instead of making more Muslims,
You made your children non-Muslims.

You ignored the Mua'dhin Adhaan,
Nor did you read the Holy Quran.

Breaking promises all your life,
Backbiting friends, and causing strife.

From hoarded goods, great profits you made,
And your poor workers, you underpaid.

Horses and cards were your leisure,
Moneymaking was your pleasure.

You ate vitamins and grew more fat,
With the very sick, you never sat.

A pint of blood you never gave,
Which could a little baby save?

O Human, you have done enough wrong,
You bought good properties for a song.

When the farmers appealed to you,
You did not have mercy, tis true.

Paradise for you? I cannot tell,
Undoubtedly you will dwell in hell.

There is no time for you to repent,
I'll take your soul for which I am sent.

The ending however, is very sad,
Eventually the man became mad

With a cry, he jumped out of bed,
And suddenly, he fell down dead.

O Reader! Take moral from here,
You never know, your end may be near

Change your living and make amends
For heaven, on your deeds depends.

If this poem inspires you,
It can help someone too.

At least take sometime, and do not make it ban
And send it to as many people as u can.

What do you have for your END?
Take Care with: The END

In one Islamic tradition, the prophet Muhammad used to call God by all his names:
"Allahumma inni ad`uka bi asma'ika al-husna kulliha"
"O God, I invoke you with all of your beautiful names."
(Narrated by Ibn Maja, book of Du`a; and by Imam Malik in his Muwatta', Kitab al-Shi`r)
The Prophet is also reported to have said in a famous Hadith:
"Verily, there are ninety-nine names of God, one hundred minus one. He who enumerates them would get into Paradise."
(Sahih Muslim, Vol. 4, p. 1410)
This caused people to search them out in the Qur'an, and a list was compiled. Over time it became custom to recite the list in its entirety. To some it developed into a ritual, while to others the "enumeration" was not just the act of recitation, but applying the attributes that the names suggest.
As one Muslim puts it:
"...by reciting and contemplating the names, and by embodying them as far as possible in his actions, the devout Muslim strives to remember God and draws near to Him, and with God's grace makes them part of his own being." [1]
Personal Names
The 99 names have been adopted and are commonly used as personal names among Muslims. For example Abd ar-Rahman ("servant of the Most Compassionate [God]").
Palm of the Hand
The number 99 is written in Arabic on everybody's hands. If you look at your palms, thumbs facing upward, the lines in the hands appear as "١٨ ٨١", which are the arabic numerals of 81 and 18, which sum to 99.
For Muslims this a reference to the names of God. It should be noted that this has no Islamic or Qu'ranic basis supporting it, and is more likely a novelty that has developed in Muslim culture.
