You just know that your name is safe in their mouth.” - Billy, age 4 “Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other.” - Karl, age 5 “Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French fries without making them give you any of theirs.” - Chrissy, age 6 “Love is what makes you smile when you’re tired.” - Terri, age 4 “Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK.” - Danny, age 7 “Love is when you kiss all the time.

I'm sure you all ever recite the Holy Quran.. don't you?
The Holy Quran is a compilation of the verbal revelations (in Arabic) given to the Holy Prophet Muhammad (saw) over a period of twenty two years. The Holy Quran is the Holy Book or the Scriptures of the Muslims. It lays down to every branch of life-law and commandments, codes for social law and moral behavior, and contains a comprehensive religious philosophy.
Have you ever really look into the verse, the words used in it? Take a time and feel it. Subhanallah.
BEAUTIFUL.
That's all I can say. I'm not good with words. I just can't find any other words to describe it. Look through into it and feel it yourself. =)
reciting of Al-fatihah by an American non-muslim. Even a non-muslim could feel the special, unique, beautiful words of this Holy Book..why can't we a Muslim did the same? =)

Even if the world turn back on me, even if people leave me..I'll stay alive. Because I have these people to smile, laugh and cry with me.
Sometimes I like to stay alone. Emo-ing with no reason (part of it are lies..of course there's reasons!). But being with people and seeing them smiling, laughing, having joy together.. tho you just stand beside, it won't take long till you'll be taken into the land they're in.
