Pans vs Patriots

If we review the history of great wars of the last century only , the trigger was nationalism, nations were fighting other nations for their own interests, I think the belief that one race or nation is superior to another is just a disease, because pan nationalism consists of a set of instructions that a nation must unite in one country even by invading and taking control over all lands and regions where members of one's nation live, then start to exterminate minorities, Pan Iranism follows the same sick ideology, there are Iranians who call themselves Pans (pan iranist) suffering from the delusion of superiority, but Iranian true patriots have always rejected Pan's idea, Pan Iranism philosophy is based on an illusion of greater Iran dreaming of an old iran, therefore Pans are different than patriots!
what does it mean to be a patriot Iranian then?
some people argue that Pan iranism is the same as patriotism but I will call it a destructive attitude only ,
Now a days Pan iranism is only a movement to oppose islam not defending Iran , Pans think that "if you not my kind then your loyalty must be opposite to mine"..don't you think this kind of attitude is in opposition of democracy itself?
During Iran Iraq war Iranian patriots showed their true love and loyalty to iran, where were those pan Iranists? why did they escape form the battle ground when it was time for them to prove their loyalty and love towards Iran??
many Iranians from different ethnics and tribes put their lives on the line to serve their land and their islamic identity!
the same question: where were Pans sense of duty to defend their country from foriegn invaders?
what we want is constructive and progressive patriotism to protect us from systematic conspiracies.

Pan Iranism is good or bad?

Are you loyal to Iran independence and resistant to Pan Iranism?
l'll tell you that I am!
I know that pan iranism has got its own supporters, and it has been moderately growing among Persian youngsters mostly but the sad part is when pan iranism advocated by green movement leaders to penetrate the society to gain the state power!! Last night I got the chance to overview the urge behind this green color, finally I remembered why I can't accept that this green was the sacred religious one , but it has been inspired with the green background color of pan Iranists symbol,
In my point of view most of people who are sympathetic to pan iranism are after new territorial order, however most of pan iraninists depend on foreigners solidarity , mostly western elites. They ignore the fact that foreign support wont come until they sacrifice their independent political identity, which is happening now for pan iranist greeners.
we should understand that there are different tribes and ethnics living in Iran and historically Pan Iranism never stopped the chronic infighting between kurds , Turks(Azeri Iranians), or Arab and jam in Iran but as we see one strong state power with Islamic identity united them all within Iran.
Pan Iranism is nothing but a conflict point which increases the sense of differences between Iranians. You would sense the feeling of racial inequality by even a glimpse at the their symbol .
Nonetheless developing a national identity is not bad if we know our real nation-wide identity!
next post will be patriotism!

Zionist solidarity with Green movement

Last week, I found a piece of paper from "Green movement" announcing their next gathering on November 4th, inviting people to protest against the democratic elected president ,
obviously the Iranian nation in the course of the last June post election events realized that a small group wanted to colonize Iran in the name of "green freedom".
In fact, Mr. Ahmadinejad and his group's hard works and their great achievements in rural areas were Iranians' determination to re-elect him.
Contrary to what Mr. Mousavi and Sheikh Karrubbi claim as reformists, Ahmadinejad is the real reformist,
After the post election events we have witnessed that some political groups have been formed aiming at destroying Iran but none of the left party members rejected their integration with green movement so far, I am still waiting for them to speak out against the zionist claim of solidarity with iranian protesters
which is absurd.
If you follow the above link , CIC (Canada -Israel committee) held the conference on 27th of October to mobilize political action against human right abuses of the Iranian regime and nuclear agenda, Most of the conference participants were zionist and Israeli politicians, legal figures and military experts including former Israeli vice consul in Toronto , Irwin Cotler(MP and lawyer) Kenneth Timmerman(Publisher of a book called honor killing ) Noam katz(Israeli Minister for public diplomacy in wahsington DC and Shimon Fogel .... and finally among all those zionists there were 2 so called iranians Nazanin Afshin jam and sayeh Hassan, who represent pro monarchist and pro israeli stances, I think any one with healthy state of mind can recognize simply untrue political stances of these so called Iranians in diaspora.
so the question is : what is the motives behind the zionist concerns for the Iranians protesters?
Such conferences are part of the moral show -off of zionists who already requested for military intervention in and economically starvation of Iran. Indeed this is a total hypocrisy of the west,as a matter of fact their support of Iranian protesters is deeply rooted in the supporting Israel .
therefore we should ask from the west and Canadians that why Iranians can protest against their regime but Palestinians shouldn't resist Israel's oppression??

Nuclear Israel is more dangerous than Iran

Iran submitted its proposal package to P5+1 yesterday on Wednesday providing opportunities to have a new round of negotiation over the Iranian nuclear conflict but in my point of view disregarding Iran's offers west keeps insisting on their failed policy of pressuring Iran to give up its right to have a peaceful nuclear program. western powers neglect Israeli nuclear weapon which is the biggest threat to the region, in fact Israel is trying to reinforce Israel's view that Iran is dangerous to the world 's peace, they want to push west to move one step forward in order to attack Iran. As a matter of fact even Egypt says that nuclear armed Israel is more dangerous than Iran, because Israel is the only country having nuclear weapons in Mid east. Although Iran is not after nuclear weapon at all but from strictly realistic point of view we may need bi polar system to secure peace in the region, just like what we faced in cold war era, I don't advocate starting a nuclear race in the region but as long as Israel is refusing to join NPT and using nuclear weapon as means of deterrent punishment for whoever Israel considers as potential enemy , to create bi-polar middle east may be inevitable. If Israel can follow " if you try to throw us stone, we will kill millions of your poeple" why then not other countries can have such policy? More over we should bear in mind that Israel is acting more preemptively than any other country in the region, we have seen Israelis always strike first against whoever they don't like, Israel uses gun in bare handed fights, and they are holding their guns to the head of every country in the middle east. If it s means of self defence why then not let Iran have such means of self defence?

Imam Hasan (as)



Peace be upon you O son of the messenger of Allah , peace be upon you O son of fatimah zahra the beloved daughter of the prophet PBUH! Peace be upon you O son of Ali the door of the city of knowledge and the commander of faithfuls! Peace be upon you O dearest inmate of Allah, Peace be upon you the sincere friend of Allah, peace be upon you o " the way" unto Allah ! peace be upon you O meaning and demonstration of the commands of Allah ! peace be upon you the rightly guided guide!...............

Imam hasan Mujtaba (as) was born in the 15th of Ramadan,
he was the second Imam , Hasan and Hussein were 2 sons of Amir al mumenin Ali (as) and Fatima zahra the daughter of the prophet Muhammad PBUH, prophet Muhammad PBUH said many times " Hasan and Hussain are my children."
During his imamat, Muawiyeh who was the enemy of ali and his family had fought for taking the caliphate, he marched to Iraq the imam hasan's place of khilafah , war continued between muawiyeh and Imam Hasan during which he corrupted the commanders of Imam hasan army and bribed them with the great sum of money and false promises, corrupted generals rebelled against Imam hasan and finally imam hasan was forced to make a peace treaty with Muawiyeh to surrender khilfah to muawiyeh under one condition that the khilafah would be returned to Imam hasan after muawiyeh's death, but Muawiyeh was not faithful to the treaty and right after getting what he wanted he started to talk about his son's yazid khilafatship , he also jailed and tortured Imam hasan's family members and his companions.....even Imam hasan lived in hardship and was under house arrest ....
No wonder Muawiyeh offered imam hasan peace treaty and accepted Imam Hasan's conditions so that he could get what he wanted , the government!
Imam hasan made Muawiyeh to bind to his conditions which needless to say he broke them later one by one, some may say this peace treaty was a great loss for imam hasan and muawiyeh won the battle , but this peace treaty was a victory for Imam hasan , it was a political plan to destroy this Umayad family, the peace treaty was a beginning of a great and successful revolution to show the ugly face of Umayad tyrants. Imam hasan peace with Muawiyeh is as revolutionary as Imam hussain's uprising against Yazeed, imam hasan's preventing bloodshed was as influential as Imam hussian's blood in Ashura. Imam hasan peacemaking was different than Muawiyeh's urge for peace, Muawiyeh's peace making was not religious and breaking the conditions of the treaty was enough of muawiyeh dishonor , Muawiyeh wanted to achieve his ambition of controlling islamic countries, he was only an opportunist and he had the old grudge of sufyan family against the prophet PBUH and his family, he wanted governing of the whole islamic region to establish his kingdom over the ummah which he gave everything to have it. Muawiyeh took an oath but he subverted the covenant he made. with the peace treaty Imam hasan's right to authority was clear to all but Muawiyeh took the authority with a trick and had to keep Imam hasan silent.
in my opinion Obama wants to act like muawiyeh , for example USA bribe
arabic governments(do you remember the visit of Obama to middle east and his speech in Cairo university!!!), Obama and Arab governors force their people to ignore the real Islamic figures, their policy is to make Muslim authorities to gather a group of ignorant Muslims to fight against other muslims , for example making the AL qeada network(USA's tool) , this is fighting islam within Islam, USA's policy is ignorance policy just like Muawiyeh's..but unfortunately we lack Imam hasan here, we do have muawiyeh of our time but sigh...who can act as wise as imam Hasan to prevent bloodshed of muslims in such wise way binding them to our conditions ..although we already knew muawiyeh look alike would break their oaths and follow their unlawful way,
right now in Iran for example Obama claims he offered peace to Iran but Iran chose war!!(referring to nuclear issue),he says that USA offered life to Iran but they Iran chose death!!!!! ..
Obama 's policy is all revolving
around false praise(praising a few countries like Egypt Jordan and so on ) and fake slander( slandering Iran)!
...such a false justice just like muawieyh's justice... but I am sure Obama like Bush would make a false history as muawiyeh did.

The horrors of US empire is going on unabated, in addition Obama is worsening it , Obama does not only want to finish this ongoing war on error but also he thinks he can fight this war better, for example he has opened the new frontier in pakistan attacking civilians and now he has given an ultimatum to Iran. Obama is much more active in misinforming and misleading even his own people atop of the world (again just like what Muawiyeh did)
, as you may know Obama has been called messiah of course by the help of none but corporate media to show such a clean face of Obama to the world as world saviour under the continuous blood sucking policy. Unfortunately what we see from the USA republican and democrats are De facto one party system with the aim of exploiting people more and more.

Is it Possible For Iran to have female minister?

Ahmadinejad has introduced new era for Iran by nominating three women for top ministerial positions, his choice of three females for cabinet posts can be interpreted either as a deceitful act to compensate for post election events or as a sign of government attention to the large portion of Iranian population , women! These three potential female ministers can be a great move in respect to woman's right in Iran,
in an instant comparison between Khatami (the reformist president) who limited himself to give one sub ministerial post for a woman, Ahmadinejad's decision to choose three female ministers is Bold and beautiful decision , Although Ahmadinejad will have to face with parliament to win over his historic decision of nomination females for ministerial position.
The tree potential ministers are:
1- fatemeh Ajorloo, minister of social welfare
2- Marziyeh wahid dastjerdi , minister of health and medical education
3- Susan keshavarz, minister of Education

fateme Ajorloo will have the opportunity to support organization which work on women's issue , Dastjerdi can address the women's health top preferences which needs female friendly faces, and keshavarz who holds PHD in philosophy of education is one of the young faces who is unknown to most Iranians including me!

in my opinion even if Ahmadinejad's female nominees cant get the parliament approval , Ahmadinejad's choice of nominating three women ministers will be ranked as the first mature act at elevating formal position of women in the government within Iran's history where the reformists failed at doing so, so here Ahmadi nejad proved that he is capable of reforms , in addition Ahmadinejad defeated his opponents by such a deft reaction to clear his anti reform image portrayed by his opponents.

crisis and opportunity

learning from the past historical moments helps us to turn crisis into an opportunity, to secure our society socially politically and economically from domestic to international levels.
Iran is now undergoing post election events , Although Iran's post election atmosphere seems to be cool but there are still parties inside the country are unrest influenced by western intruders trying to stir the situation to save their disruptive reputation.
There are significant transition points in Iran post revolution era. the first decade we tried to fix socio-political instability crisis and on the other hand dealing with Iran-Iraq war burden on Iranians' shoulders. This period started from 1979 and ended in 1989 with the death of Ayatullah khomeini,
After 1989Iran entered into the second period with loads of economical crisis, so new government came to the power with a new slogan "restructure of economy" but ignoring developing other social needs of new generation, I personally think that even general economic liberalization failed to some extent,
Here, I am not trying to underestimate their effort of reconstitution of Iran's economic pillars. Iranians are all well aware of problems like tough international sanctions , wars and etc, hence such slight developments could be considered as economic growth, Although their effort was limited and didn't have consistency , privatization process was revolving around the small circle of some politicians and their families only.
from 1997 people felt they needed to some new faces with new beautiful slogans such as reform promises, what we gained was nothing actually , reformist government ignored the economic development instead they involved in political arguments, in my eyes it was another failure of elites.
reviewing the said 3 phases we can see that Iran were mostly under lefties and some semi conservative claiming as progressives tottering to the lefties satisfying their self interests, during the first decade the sever antagonism towards capitalism and privatization caused reduction in productivity and weakening the economy, in the next periods governments failed at acting upon their promises such as reduction of subsidiaries and privatization of nationalized enterprises etc and etc ......
In 2005 , Iranians felt for a real reform something different than reformists and voted for Ahmadinejad , a new face with new promises, Iranians saw him as a tough critic of past governments how ever politicians have never been really trust worthy,but Iranians preferred t o revive their hopes for brighter future with him .He was able to earn Iranian mobs respect , some might reject the idea but we can not ignore the truth,
and now again they re-elected him waiting for the justice he has promised them to receive, right now if we want the system to survive , if we want to be in the right track of economic changes, if we want to save our culture, if we want to have political reforms , we need to stick to history lessons ,
the victory is in turning crisis into the opportunity

Imamat 2

" And those who disbelieve say: why has not a sign been sent down upon from his lord? you are only a warner and (there is ) a guide for every one. "
Holy quran 13:7

This verse points that the earth has never been free from a guide and it will never be, there should be a Warner and the holy prophet is a Warner for the people in all times and the imam (guide) in his progeny is also for people in every age, prophet Muhammad PBUH said :
" I am the Warner and Ali is the guide, O Ali, through you those who are guided will receive guidance, "
from Fakhr razi and Syouti tafseer, narrated by Ibn Abbas
Imam Sadiq (PBUH) narrated a saying from Imam Sajaad (PBUH) that as of the creation of man kind by Allah, the earth has never been free from the guide, the Guidance has been sometimes explicit and the other times implicit, and until the resurrection , the earth won't be without righteous Guide(Imam), and Allah wont be worshiped without the Guide (Imam ),

therefore there are 3 different interpretations of this verse,
1- The holy prophet is a warner and a guide for every nation.
2- the holy prophet is a warner and every nation had a guide
3- the holy prophet is a Warner and every nation has a guide.

The last interpretation must be accepted according Aqa Mahdi Pouya and Almizan Tafseer by Alama Taba'taba'ee

Imamat 1

"When his lord tried Ibrahim with certain words he fulfilled them .He said: surely I will make you an Imam of men. Ibrahim said: and of my offspring? My covenant does not include the unjust, said He."
2:124 Holy Quran
Ibrahim (PBUH) was a prophet , despite of his state as Khalilullah he was tested and tried by Allah (SWT), it would be meaningless if one thinks that Ibrahim PBUH with such high moral and ethics was tested in very elementary matters of his life for the sake of test only such as many other human beings,why then he was tested?! what was the nature of his test? Ibrahim PBUH 's trial was a test to show his steadfastness of his faith in Allah. Allah tried him then made covenant with him , afterward He became Imam :
" Surely I will make you an Imam of men"
this verse guides us to understand Risalat and Imamat better, it indicates that Imamat holds definitely high order which is bestowed by Allah to one who proves himself suitable and worthy after going through a series of tests.
No one however vitreous or godly he might be could never claim the divine position of imamat on his own.
Ibrahim became an Imam for mankind yet he had no right to pass it to his descendants. He requested Allah let children inherit the position , Allah told him : " My covenant does not include the zalim(Unjust), unjust according to quran is the one who commits shirk and worships other than Allah . Allah clearly says that Imamat will never be given to those who have sinned, only infallible one can be an Imam.

My covenant does not include the unjust"

Among the companions of the prophet ,there was no one who has never worshiped idols , except Ali ibn Abi Talib , the prophet cousin, hence the prophet PBUH hand over the imamt covenant to Ali ibn Abi taleb under the command of Allah, and after Ali (as) to the eleven imams in the progeny of Muhammad(PBUH) and Ali (as). Imam must be free from any kind of sins , small or great , hidden or open.
Through the last messenger of Allah the perfect and completed religion of Allah was conveyed to the people, Although the legislation act was ended with the mission of the prophet Muhammad PBUH , but Allah never left this umma alone without genuine leaders.
Ibrahim became imam for mankind , he was not apolitical leader or governing ruler yet people were appointed to obey him in every single matter, spiritual or earthly , nonetheless an Imam doesn't need to be a political face or a temporal power, people have been ordered to obey the imam of their age .

prophet Muhammad PBUH said:
whoever dies not knowing imam of his age , he dies in ignorance

whither then you will go?

In an advice by Imam Ali to Malik Ashtar, he wants him to not isolate himself as a ruler from the people , because a ruler 's seclusion from his own people results a lack of knowledge of his society's affairs. Unfortunately there are a few evildoers amongst different political parties and even in revolutionary guards trying to separate Iranians from their government by spreading mischief and injustice, in fact there are a few unanswered questions which must be replied by some of the officials.

Couldn't anti protest cops perform better and manage the situation wisely? Why some of the so called plainclothes intrude upon anti protest force's affair making it difficult for us to get to know the foreigner's hands in the riot?
we all know that western countries and Israel have been trying different plots against Iran trying to separate Iranians from the system , My question is why then we should provide them the opportunity to poison the atmosphere of Iran more and more by our own false deeds!?

I myself feel very proud of Islamic republic of Iran but I will never forgive any of the Islamic republic of Iran's rulers if they damage Islam, Islamic ethics.
When we establish our system based on Islam , we should let the pure Muhammadi Islam be reflected in our system, nothing more nothing less!
In Islam the relationship between man and god leads us to the principals which direct Muslims to develop and sustain interrelations between human beings.

"And hold by the covenant of Allah altogether and be not disunited, and remember the favor of Allah on you when you were enemies, then He united your hearts so by His favor you became brethren; and you were on the brink of a pit of fire, then He saved you from it, thus does Allah make clear to you His communications that you may follow the right way. "
Alee imran:103


Islam not only establishes peace, unity and Harmony between man and man but also co-ordinates mankind affairs. Islam puts universal interest above the individual interests:

" O you who believe! be upright for Allah, bearers of witness with justice, and let not hatred of a people incite you not to act equitably; act equitably ,that is nearer to piety and be careful of (your duty to) Allah ; Surely Allah is Aware of what you do. "
al maaida:8


Quran invites us to establish an institution which not only would call people to Allah but guide mankind towards the system which is approved by the humans conscience.
prerequisite of such perfect institution is forbidding evil and doing good, it is clear that one can become Muslim in tongue but a true Muslim should submit to Allah completely and shall not do anything outside the true path revealed through Quran. even the slightest deviation from his path and making amendments in the guidance provided by Allah and His prophet Muhammad PBUH and Ahlul bayt salamullah Alahum is as going back to the days of ignorance and falling into the abyss. There is a great punishment for such followers and scholars on the day of judgment.
So we should practice Quran in our daily life , lets our affairs be evaluated by quran and the prophet PBUH sunnah .

while we know the last presidency election with such turnout can be considered one of the peculiar pages of Iran's history , some of the traitors in the name of Muslims are showing their ugly sides, We Iranians are aware of Zionist threats and our colourful sworn enemies striving their best to destabilize Iran, nevertheless we stand against them bravely but we can't tolerate to see some local wrong doers damaging our Islamic morals by beating and killing a few people in jails . It is time for our supreme court to take action against those who have been ill-mannered with some of the protesters .as per Islamic sharia law they should treat them humanly with kindness to preserve their dignity .

even after a few speeches of Ayatollah Khamenei (the supreme leader) about islamic brotherhood advising the political circles in the country to be careful of their remarks and avoid rifts and asking the whole system to stay integrated and to correct their behavior,some of the rulers or so called members of the political elites perform beyond the law ignoring his advices.
I don;t know if i can call it fortunate or unfortunate event that after being idle for more than 30 days the supreme judge has commanded a group of his men to investigate about the recent violation of Islamic constitution and jurisdiction clauses in prisons.
Although our supreme leader's job is not really interfering the affairs of the three existing powers(legislator power:parliament, president of Iran and the judiciary system which are completely acting independent from each others according to our constitutional law ) except supervising them, recently we see that in every single matter Our leader is under pressure to appear and perform on behalf of the powers because there is a feeling that they haven't done their duty properly !

however at such difficult time the need for such a person and leader has been felt strongly, I just pray for him to be able to act independently and powerfully without being any one else's influence.
As much as I felt proud of him when he didn't surrender himself to an illogical request to dump the election which was flawless I would also like him to stand against any unfair discriminatory act against the imprisoned protesters and their families , and to put an end to the current military kind state.

The Ideal society: Ummah

yesterday evening I found a book by Dr. Ali Shari'ati in our ware room ,, as I found it something very worthy I decided to to share some parts of it with you my dear readers , the book is in farsi and the title is " Islam shenasi" which means Islamology :

The Ideal society of Islam is called umma. Umma includes different aspects like different culture and languages,different races and tribes. umma inspires dynamic and committed ideological social version.
the word umma derives from the root amm,which has the sense of intention and path. Therefore the umma is a society in which a number of individuals have got common faith and goal, come together in harmony with the intention of advancing and moving toward their common goal.
while other words for societies express the unity under blood and soil and they share the material benefit as the criterion of Society .
The basis of the Islamic social philosophy is the intellectual responsibility and shared movement towards a common goal regardless of blood and soil or materialistic benefits, Although the infrastructure of the umma is the economy because " whoever has no worldly life has no spiritual life."
Islamic social system is based on equity and justice and ownership by the people, which is the revival of the "system of Abel," the society of human equality and therefore the classless brotherhood. Islamic brotherhood is not like western social system which has kept the western bourgeoisie.
The political philosophy of Umma and the form of the regime of umma is not the democracy of heads, not irresponsible and the directionless liberalism which is a tool in hands of social forces, It is not rotten aristocracy , not anti-popular dictatorship, not a self -imposed oligarchy ,
It consists rather of the purity in leadership [not the leader,for that would be fascism], committed and revolutionary leadership.
Islamic regim of ummah is responsible for the movement and growth of the society towards the divine destiny of man .

Now my dear reader don't you think such leadership is the true meaning of IMAMATE??!!!


Yes,in my opinion, it is the true meaning of Imamate!(leadership of umma)


Please think about it and leave your comment ...what do you think of Islamic umma and the leadership?

Muhammadi Rose water



" Sha'abaan is my month, whoever keeps fast in it, is worthy of heaven."
prophet muhammad (PBUH)





yesterday I was watching a program about washing inside of Kaaba (house of Allah in mecca) with pure Rose water from Qamsar ,a city near kashan

Kashan is filled with Mohammadi Rose, roses from which they extract high quality rosewater. This type of rose which has got such delightful fragnance, has been named after the prophet Muhammad PBUH.
Rose water is extracted from sweet-scented Muhammadadi rose,which is indigenous to Iran ,
Rose water is the hysrosol portion of the distillate of rose petals. Rose water can be used to flavor food, or as a component can be added to cosmetic and medical substances . In Iran we use it for religious purpose too. That's why each year , Kashan sends large amount of this Rose water to the holy city of mecca in Saudi Arabia as a gift to wash Kaaba with it on the first day of Shaaban.
Happy shaaban to whoever celebrates this blessing month .

Appearance of the universal Faith


Yesterday was 27th of Rajab on which Allah (SWT) appointed Muhammad (PBUH) to his prophetic mission as the last messenger and the prophet. I congratulate on such grand day , a day changed the destiny of human beings.

"Those who follow the Messenger , the unlettered prophet,whom they will find described in the Torah and the Gospel,which are in their possession. He will enjoin them to do what is right and forbid them what is wrong. He will make lawful for them all good things and he will relieve them of their burden and the fetters that they used to wear" (7:157)

Maba'ath. is a day when..the archangel ,Jibraeel brought the first verses of Allah' words to Muhammad PBUH , the revelation which continued over next 23 years.
I


Muhammad (PBUH) the ummi (unlettered) prophet was raised up by Allah as His mercy upon people of the world,
verse 21 of Surah Anbiya:

“We have sent you but as a Mercy to the creation.”

Allah ordered him to summon the world to Tauhid and the worship of the One God , to call them to justice ,good works,strong social bonds, and encouraging them to hold to the truth without fear. Allah (SWT) appointed Muhammad PBUH to establish the human happiness on the bed rock of faith. Maba'ath means Resurgence , no wonder despite of passing 1430 years , the prophet muhammad's message sent by Allah SWT is still shining even much shinier and brighter than the first days.
mam Ali (as) , the prophet PBUH 's dearest cousin, ward, son-in law and his true successor in leading Islamic ummah in sermon 26 from nahjul balaghah( Ali ibn abi talib famous book Nahj al-Balaghah, which is a collection of the Imam's highly eloquent speeches, letters and maxims ) says that:

“Allah sent Muhammad (SAWA) as a Warner for all creation and a Trustee of His revelation, while you people of Arabia were following the worst religion and you resided among rough stones and venomous serpents. You drank dirty water and ate filthy food. You shed blood of each other and cared not for relationships. Idols were fixed among you and sins clung to you."


Again from Nahjul balaghah in sermon 160 , Imam Ali (a.s) says about Prophet Mohammad (blessings of God upon him and his progeny):


“Allah sent him with a convincing discourse and a rectifying announcement. Through him Allah disclosed the ways that were forsaken and destroyed the innovations that had been introduced. Through him He explained the detailed commands. Now whoever adopts a religion other than Islam his misery is definite… his fate will be serious, his end will be long grief and distressing punishment.” (Sermon 160)

Now adays we see that despite the hard work of enemies and hypocrites to darken image of Islam , Islam is fastes growing religion in the world , this means that Islam is for eternity.

Therefore celebrating maba'ath is the renewal of our faithfulness to Islam principals, the principals that Muhammad SAS preached, to rebuild ourselves to be a true and real monotheist ...

Iranian Plane Crashes, All 168 Passengers Killed


"An Iranian plane carrying 168 passengers crashed before midday in the suburbs of the city of Qazvin, some 75 miles northwest of Tehran, on route to the Armenian capital, Yerevan"

It was 1 pm when I heard the heart- rending news about the death of nearly 170 passengers in the worst disastrous accidents of the recent years in Iran. I got teary and couldn't keep from crying , It was really terrible news, I am sure it scattered million hearts into the pieces just like the shattered aircraft .

I still believe that "air travel" is the safest means of transportation when measured to road travel accidents per kilometer. These years we are witnessing terrible accidents in the " air travel ", as we all know plane crashes would happen one in 10 million to one in 60 million(according to different statistics),

Iran is unable to buy new planes or even spare parts for the maintenance due to tough sanctions since 28 years ago, therefore Iranians have been forced to fly with planes bought before 1979, Although Iran has been handling this problem so far and even managed to manufacture some spare parts some how, nevertheless Iran has been forced to use used Russian made aircraft Tupolev ,
why western mean countries take this safe transportation right from Iranians?
To take a civil right from a nation by imposing unjustified international sanctions on them, can't be explained logically.

Although we can't expect any civilized manner from the narrow minded prejudiced western countries on top of them the USA to lift sanctions which has destructive impact on civilians, actually I think the west aim is to hurt civilians mostly , they don't really respect our civil right as an independent nation in the world, we have seen their hostile behavior so far many times, for example As an Iranian I have never forgotten downing of an Iranian passenger plane over the Persian gulf in 1988 and killing more than 260 on board without any special reason, Under which international law passenger planes can be shot over their own maritime territory? I guess none! but seems the powerful countries can destroy anything they wish ...just as simple as that!
To be fair , I don't want to blame western countries and their unfair sanctions only, but also I think that air lines and the government are faulty too, if we cant buy spare parts from western countries, at least we should be able to keep up Russians aircraft in shape , government should support airlines to spend some cash for Russian planes maintenance.
I hope that this heart wrenching accident opens new door to Iranians safer air travel,
May God bless those who died in the incident, I hea
rd that Iranian national junior Judo team was on the board too.

One week of my life

Saturday:
In the morning I was talking to my sister about the last episode of "little mosque on the prairie" and how "JJ" (Rayyan's fiance) broke up with Rayyan at their wedding day, well it was a right decision, they wouldn't mean to each others at all, any way as we were talking about wedding, I asked my sister why we haven't been invited to any wedding for a long time?
" oh come on, as if you would go to their wedding even if they invited you!" my sis said.
" you know I have changed my idea about wedding parties, I think of wedding parties like big congregations ,family, relatives and friends all coming together at the same time, you will meet many relatives who you have not visited for a long time. " , I continued.
while we were discussing it, the phone was ringing, I picked it up , "salaam, this is..... how are you ? do you remember me?" , the man on the phone said.

" Oh yeah of course I do, been a long time ,you are like ancient history now!!..... ........" I replied.
" yeah I know, I am sorry, but surprise ! I want to visit you guys if you are home today," he said it giggling.
we said goodbye and I hung up the phone, I told my sister that it was uncle .(we used to call him uncle when we were kids.but now..I couldn't even remember her wife's name, My dad used to be his close friend.
Long story short, he came and beyond our surprise he brought his son's wedding invitation card. yes now we are going to the wedding on Friday, isn't that great ??!! My Saturday was a surprise day!


Sunday:
I had a doctor appointment Sunday morning , it was a really hot day, when I was on my way back home I bought some fruit, and went towards the bus station , there is an old woman selling newspapers beside the Bus station , I have seen her many times but each time I was in a hurry therefore never noticed her properly. This time I decided to stop by her and look at the papers' headlines, however the old woman didn't like me standing there blocking passersby way so she told me angrily to go away if I wouldn't want to buy anything! I apologized sincerely and opened my bags , offered her some fruit, she refused my offer with a smile on her lips but then asked me if I had grapes, I told her that I could go and buy some , again she giggled and said :"no my dear", after chatting with her for a short while, I bought 2 newspapers , while I was walking away I heard her praying and thanking God, traditionally I would never buy those papers from the political parties that I dislike too much, but now I have to confess that I have never felt better for buying newspapers entire my life .


Monday:


I was watching TV , there was a program about prairies of "Meshkin shahr " Meshkin shahr is one of the small cities of Iran in Ardabil province, they were showing the vast fields of the Red tulips of meshkin shahr. Many of people in the world may know the tulip as dutch flower but Tulip or "Lelah" is indigenous to Iran , A dutch ambassador took the red tulip bulb to Holland in the 16th century. After watching the red tulips on TV I thought of our beautiful environment surrounding us , and how we tend to ignore the power behind it, in fact each and everything has been created by God almighty the merciful as "Saadie" the great poet of 7th century of Iran says: The showers of his boundless mercy have penetrated to every spot,and the banquet of his unstinting liberality is spread out everywhere.


Tuesday:
My favorite day in a week, I have had this feeling since my childhood, any lovely thing has happened on Tuesdays for me, I have never felt sad on Tuesdays, as long as I remember I have had the best curriculum at school on Tuesdays, Tuesday nights TV series have been the best so far, or may be because I was an ex TV addict Tuesdays TV programs have had great impact on my feeling towards Tuesdays. This Tuesday was just like my other Tuesdays, calm, relaxing, ..there s no cloud, there is no wind, there is a purity of the grapes of life, there is bread , basil and cheese to eat............ a simple and beautiful Tuesday.

Wednesday:

8.30 am , I was out shopping some kitchen stuff, outside the supermarket , there were some clovers growing wild, the beauty and simplicity of them attracted my attention and reminded me of the red tulip, I wondered why I underestimated clover's beauty in comparison with the red tulip or other flowers? there is a very nice poem by" suhran sepehri" you may like it:
I wonder why some say the horse is a noble animal, and the dove is lovely And why no one pets the vulture. I wonder why the clover is inferior to the red tulip.
Eyes should be bathed, visions should be changed. words should be bathed word should be very wind word should be the very rain.



Thursday:
I am looking for something to share with my dear readers , but we all know every day is a gift from Allah almighty , so my Thursday is another day and I know that whenever it is
and wherever I am , let me be , the heaven and earth are mine , I will never let mushrooms of nostalgia grow !

Friday:


I have a wonderful prayer for Friday which I would like to share:

Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds O' Allah send blessing on Muhammad and on the children of Muhammad. O my Allah ! All praise is for you for that which you decided upon and resolved in the matter of your friends, whom you purified for yourself and for your religion O My Allah Set up truth, destroy falsehood, show teh right path to your friends, humiliate your enemies! O my Allah fulfill our desires,forgive our sins, give us means of livelihood make less our hardship O Allah bring us close to you O Allah Turn the eyes of your mercy upon us Ameen! By the way .....I will go to the wedding this evening!yaaay!

For a better Future


It is midnight and you can't sleep, whatever trick you know has not helped you to fall you asleep, whereas thousands of thoughts beat up on you, usually most of them are spams but sometimes there are classes of thoughts which you can't filtrate, they trap you pushing you to play with them, they can make you happy, sad, excited,guilty ... last night when i was in bed trying to sleep for me it started like "knock knock! ....whose there.... the futures....what futures? ....two futures! .. yeah, two futures, for a second I felt knocked off then i asked myself:" why two futures! don't we all have one future? why am I thinking like that? what made me think of two futures?", after a a few minutes of struggling , a few verses of Quran lightened my mind :"whoever does good whether male or female and he is a believer, we will most certainly make him live a happy life " and this is the first future in the worldly life, " and we will most certainly give them their reward for the best of what they did" , and this is the second future in the after life, after remembering this verse of Quran which I read last evening from chapter 16 (the bee) verse No.97 , I realized what was tickling my conscience ! Since last night I know that I need to think of my two futures, one refers to this world , and the other to the hereafter because " this life in the world is the farm of the afterlife." This life and the after life are not separate , Our good deeds in this world make our afterlife good. Imam Ali has said:"whoever does good for his afterlife, Allah will make his worldly life good" , with each and every breath we make our future, let's improve ourselves towards A BETTER FUTURE.

Some Hateful Women

There are some women who disgust me a lot. Some women are malicious,downright mean, disrespectful to others, and the worst part of their behavior is that those kind of women try to pass on such legacy to their daughters too.
You may ask me why me as a woman don't feel any solidarity towards women?! Unfortunately some women has grown up to become hostile , suspicious,utterly liars and cheaters. The trend that I am talking about makes havoc not only among females but also all human beings, therefore this trend is a crisis for humanity!
Recently I have had bad experience with such women,Women who constantly lie behind others. In fact Such gossip monger women want to drag others to their inferior levels. I have seen some women even in the virtual world especially in chat rooms that fight for men , How undignified thing it can be ...fighting over one man!!!! ...Some women make female gangs and they rather tend to recruit other women to terrorize whoever is more confident than them, although I have seen this kind of behavior at work place too,
Don't you think how insecure a woman can be to join such gangs
and trend?
the trend I am talking about knows no boundaries in morality,they cheat to survive or no I better say they survive to cheat,they invade others privacy and they are not loyal to any one..not to their husband not to their kids not to their neighbors ,and not to God almighty at all which is much more important than any one and anything else.
I hate such inconsistent behavior of some women , I hate that kind of women totally!!!!!

The Western Apocalyse

Millions in the world have seen Neda Aqa sultan( an Iranian young woman killed in suspicious manner in hooliganism fully outsourced by CIA injecting 400 million $ inside Iran using terrorists like MKO,PKK ,etc.... to create Tehran chaos) on CNN, BBC, ITN, Aljazeera, Al- Arabia and other western media repeatedly for 24/7,
Neda's tragic death was hard on all Iranians and of course it is condemned by each and every one of us but how about Martyr of Hijab...Marwa Al-sherbini? has any one heard of her, like they heard about Neda? Actually I was not surprised on the hypocritical action of western media , but what appeared shocking to me was Egyptian blog sphere, Egyptian blogs have been overflowing with death of Neda right an hour after her tragic death following all other nasty Televisions, radios and papers but nothing about Marwa ...oh, but yes with one week delay Egyptians are talking about it and comparing her death news coverage with Neda's.

Marwa Al-sherbini who has not been noted yet in the western media was a young 32 year old mother killed in a German open courtroom during judicial session in Dresden July 1 in front of her 3 year old son's eyes. She was stabbed 18 times in the courtroom by a xenophobic German who previously attacked her by calling her terrorist for wearing hijab in the kid's playground. In the court room when his husband rushed to help her, the German court security shot him instead of trying to protect Marwa from the stabber , you might have asked yourself so far that how it can possible to let a criminal in court hit a witness in front of a judge , jury and security forces eyes? More ever No German officials has said anything on the incident yet, it occurs that Ms. Merkel and other top German officials concern about human right in other countries rather their own , Typical pro Zionist western hypocrisy! This hypocrisy is really difficult to stomach.


The nature of their killers is the same which is Hatred propagated by their Zionist backed corporate media. one like Neda has been murdered by anti Iran enemies in order to have a news footage to cause world wide outrages around the globe against Iran and Islamic regime and sow the seeds of hatred against Muslims while crying crocodile tears for violation of human right , hence the other one Marwa, killed by the same hatred they have created within years on falsehood.


Ya Haq!

Ali : the foremost in faith

Dedicated to 13th of Rajab : Birthday of Imam Ali a.s.


[Shakir 56:10] And the foremost are the foremost,
[Shakir 56:11] These are they who are drawn nigh (to Allah),
Shakir 56:12] In the gardens of bliss.
[Shakir 56:13] A numerous company from among the first,
[Shakir 56:14] And a few from among the latter.


The greatest virtue of Amir al mumenin Ali (a.s) is his Faithfulness and Faith. The Islamic Ummah testifies that there has been no single moment of worshipping idol in his life, and no one can find an iota of shirk in his beliefs.
When the holy prophet Muhammad (PBUH) made known his mission, Ali ibn Abi taleb and Khadija Kubrah were the foremost in accepting the truth. They were the first who prayed behind the Holy prophet(PBUH). Referring to the event of the "feast of the relatives" Ali was the first who stretched his hand towards the Holy prophet PBUH to help him in his mission. Ali was not the only defender of the holy prophet but also he was the exclusive Hero of the all battles(Badr, Uhud, Khandaq, Khaybar......).
Ali was the quickest and readiest to accept Allah's message and devote his whole life without any question and doubt to the Prophet , He gave his life, property and position in the service of Allah.
The foremost in faith he was siddiq al akbar(the greatest testifier of the holy prophet) and farooq al awwal(the separator of right from false).

Ahmad bin Hanbal in his Musnad says that the foremost in faith were three men:1) mumin of alee Firawn(Pharaoh) .:Joshua who believed in Moses PBUH.....2) mumin of alee Yasin :Habib Najjar who believed in Issa(Jesus) PBUH ....3)Ali ibn abi talib.

Let's celebrate the Birthday of such great man with reflecting his character and correct our deeds right now at this moment than later.
Ya Haq!

Iran for all Iranians

I uploaded an audio clip of Iran's oldest national anthem composed by the French military musician Lemair. I translated the lyrics which you can find below.







The ever last
ing name of Homeland,
the promising morning of homeland
Shine in the sky,
like th
e restless sun,


O' Homeland,My strength,
My passion, my delight,
Like the restless sun,
shine in the sky
Listen to the empathy of my words,
I am singing your words,
All my body, my spirit
My homeland , My homeland, My homeland

(Damavand Mountain)


Listen to the warmth of my words
I am the lark of this grassland,
all my body, my soul,
My homeland, My homeland, My homeland,



People with different languages and colors
,
All with one symbol and identity ,
singing happily and joyfully,
For the Strength of livened IRAN.

Tomorrow is Ours


I don't think that there is some one who has not thought about the future! Even an insane thinks of his future at least to the extent of his daily struggling to stay alive,
Now my big question is: what is the future of Iran?
Unlike a few groups who predict dark days to come, I am very hopeful for the brightest Iran, this election was a turning point in the history of Islamic republic of Iran, all of us felt the freedom of speech at the rate which we never had in previous governments, people in the streets were laughing, dancing, cursing, fighting, arguing in favor of different candidates, we truly felt the kind of Iran we have been wishing for "an Iran for all Iranians" regardless of their different ideologies, even after the election and despite the post election events I believe that we are still breathing in the pre-election atmosphere, because this election opened new windows for us and we understood that changes are coming , Our leaders know that changes are inevitable, but pushing people towards changes the way Mr. Mousavi is doing at this time , is totally wrong.we are all living under the Islamic umbrella,
Tomorrow will be ours if we Iranians respect each others and to not let rumors ruin our unity under the Islamic flag.
