visiting foreign country

Post by Mohsen »

Dear Behnam,

Hope you enjoy your life during the beautiful autumn. The weather is very joyful for going to promenade, I made an appointment at 10 to go around for 2 hours.
My walking in Arbaeen was 200 Km ,because our group didn’t pay for transportation and we visited many places by walking , We interred the Iraq via Chazabeh border and went to Divania – Karbala – Samera – Kazimain – Najaf- Karbala- Mehran exit border…
I can’t judge about Iraq industries .. if I didn’t see any foundation during my way , and also people of Iraq were very kind to Iranian , during the 8 years war Sadam attacked Iran by his army which was a part of Iraq people ( about one million) where majority of Iraq people were not agree about the war.
During my travel to Iraq , I never felt that that I am in a foreign country. I hope The USA forces leaves the Iraq and Syria as soon as possible, and people of these countries feel the taste of peace.
thank you for sending the singing panegyrized the Imam and his followers , although i didn't understand the Arabic singers {-; {-; {-; {-; . I always listen to Iranian singers
See you

Hi Mohsen!

Dear Mohsen,

How are you doing? I hope you are doing good. How is life? How is Isfahan?
Many thanks for your reply. Mohsen, how do you feel about the past? I often think it was like a few days ago, I was a child and ...Sometimes, I cannot believe the past had been existed. Oh, it was like yesterday we were writing on English-at-home. Many people were there, good people from different countries. Do you remember Clare? That proud lady finally put away her pride and selfishness and joined us. How powerful our thread was. It could attract her attention. Well, it was a big success for us to have the owner of that site in our thread. But, finally she couldn't tolerate us. The thread was going to be so famous and effective that she couldn't monitor it carefully. She was against us, but her enmity was hidden. Do you remember the people? Have you got any contacts to some of them?

All the best,
Behnam, December 18, 2018

sexual assault

Post by Mohsen »

Hello
I was shocked when I read this news " Two-week-old baby in hospital after alleged rape"
In a country which is called a civilized society ,the criminal is happen ,such a criminal is not happen even in namadic tribes.

A two week old baby is in intensive care in a Belfast hospital after allegedly being raped.

Detectives from the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) are investigating the crime, which a spokesperson said had left the infant with "a number of serious injuries".

They have charged a 25-year-old man with with rape and grievous bodily harm with intent.

He appeared at Armagh Magistrates Court on Tuesday.

The infant is from the Annalong area of County Down and is understood to be receiving treatment at the paediatric unit of the Royal Belfast Hospital for Sick Children.

A spokesperson for the Belfast Trust said: "We do have a child in our care but we will not be commenting further due to the family's request for privacy."

sexual abuse

Post by Mohsen »

Another one , It was one of my friends who sent me this bad news.

A woman who has been comatose for at least a decade gave birth in a Phoenix nursing facility Dec. 29, sparking a police investigation into possible sexual abuse.

Her caretakers had no idea the woman was pregnant “until she was pretty much giving birth,” a source familiar with the situation told CBS 5.

“From what I’ve been told she was moaning. And they didn’t know what was wrong with her,” the source told CBS 5.

The baby boy is healthy, but the mother remains in a vegetative state caused by a near-drowning incident years ago. The patient had around the clock care and many staff members at Hacienda HealthCare where she lives could have entered her room alone.

Hacienda HealthCare has already instituted a new policy so that male caretakers are never alone in a room with a female patient, the source told CBS 5.

The health care facility issued the following statement in light of the incident:

Please read the whole story here

I didn't get the meaning of following sentence
The baby boy is healthy, but the mother remains in a vegetative state

Dear Mohsen,

Thanks for sharing those things with us, although they carry and transfer negative energy. Evils deeds and devilish thoughts exist in all societies. Satan never stops fooling, tempting, and deceiving human beings. We should not blame other nations, since human values have changed dramatically, moral values have lost remarkably, and social values have replaced considerably in our society too.

About your question, it may mean someone has got brain damaged so that s/he has lost her/his consciousness. In Farsi we say "Zendegi nabati".

idiot or aware

Post by Mohsen »

Dear Behnam,
Thank you for that sentence clarification , I got it.
Yes , Satan always lies in ambush to fall victim deceiving people .
The sex relation of boys and girls is limited in Iran and it should be under the law , that is why Iran is criticized by Europ media . Why there no sex relation freedom in Iran?
The rape of two-weeks baby was made in a country which has no limitation in sex relation between boys and girls , even homosexulity is free. this is the difference ..I know that there are plug-ugly people in each society.
Some people are trying to show a bad face from religion , maybe they are doing it idiotly or they act their trick to gain money to show a bad religion appearance.
As Trump said the USA government made the ISIS group , to show a bad face from Islam in the world.
I saw a video from a pop ,he was driven by a man , or he was riding on a man , pop in very strange way was driven by man to make out the devil from one man.
He squatted a young man in front of a church, followed by a crowd of people. Do you hear about this style of worship
look at video the following address
https://www.telegraf.rs/zanimljivosti/1 ... veka-video
Also look at this magazine

Sex for rent

Post by Mohsen »

Hello Behnam,
I watch the Asian cup ,but not follow the margins' news , I don't know what Khiabani said ... not enough important for me.
Of course I hate the Iran captain ,Dezagah ' whose body has been painted with many foolish drawings , Is it the symbol of Iran culture , or idiots who follow the European star..

Behnam ,I was reading a parts of news in ".theguardian.com"

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfr ... r-rent-ads


"The growth of online “sex for rent” ads is a dreadful indictment of the UK’s housing affordability crisis. Around a quarter of a million women have been offered “sex for rent” deals by landlords in the last five years, according to housing charity Shelter. Labour MP Peter Kyle says that there are more “sex for rent” ads in Britain than the rest of Europe and American combined.

To offer free or discounted rent in exchange for sex is a gross abuse of power. There are landlords getting away with it because of the desperate situation women, and sometimes men, find themselves in, as a result of increasing housing costs and the sharp cuts to working age benefits introduced by this government"


it means that in British ,the landlord rents the house and in return the landlord have sex with tenant in return of rent.
What a poor society , million women...!!

Behnam did I get the meaning correctly ? My English is not very good.

I am reading another article in following page

Hi Mohsen,

Your English is excellent. That is correct. However, money making is a basic principle of capitalism. No matter how one makes it.

Take care of yourself.

Why French is the language of love?

French is the language of love.

Hello

Today I want to breath oxygen as much as I can , the air is pure ,no pollution, the river is flowing over the city and people are working with full of energy.

Dear Behnam , you are right about capitalism,I read a report that Every 98 seconds, an American is sexually assaulted , that is a terrible record , even I read the One-Third of UN Workers Have Been Sexually Harassed, that is the result of unrestrained culture.
https://www.globalcitizen.org/en/conten ... ssment-un/

Paula White who is apparently a priest in white house , in her new year message She’s telling her followers to send her an entire month’s salary or God will make sure they suffer the consequences for their lack of faith, that is another way of capitalism to cheat people.

https://www.patheos.com/blogs/dispatche ... hs-salary/

Speaking about French , I don't know about the root of language ,but nowadays what is in press is that many citizen are suppressed by French police ,every Saturday they come to Paris street ,but police will be more violent against his people, this is another aspect of capitalism.

Post by Mohsen »

Hello Behnam,
I surprised when I heard that there is a village near to Paris ,conde herpy , poeple in this villige are Muslim- Shia.
I search more to find a person in this village ,invite it to come to this forum,and speak about French language and situation of Muslim in France.
Muslims in France continually combat the issue of secularism. Sadly, women and girls are restricted in practicing their faith due to the hijab ban. On July 1, 2012, the European Court of Human Rights upheld a French law that prohibited face-covering veils in public space. School girls also risked expulsion for wearing the hijab.

Le Moulinet is the name of the Mosque of the village , I visited a website as follow.

Dear Mohsen,
In the past, as you might notice me criticizing capitalism, I used to say to my friends who would strongly support it, that although capitalism claims to be the most advanced and developed system for governing people and society, it has some serious defects or incompetence. For example, capitalism has no suggestions for balancing or distributing wealth of a nation among its people. The gap between the poor and the rich is always widening in societies. The poor gradually are deleted from decisions making places. As a result, the rich govern people and support their own benefits in all decisions and laws. This is a fact, and it cannot be denied or ignored. Their is no solution for this big problem.

Or system, on the other hand, has almost the same problem. Although, in the beginning, as a motto actually, it claimed to create a system in which the rights of poor people are supported, in practice something quite opposite happened. In our society also, the gap between the poor and the rich is increasing. The gap is becoming big and the number of poor people is increasing too.

To be honest, I am disappointed. I think, without God and Aemmeh Masum, nobody can hold justice.

Imam Mahdi Must Come!

All the best,

happy new year

Post by Mohsen »

Hello Behnam
Happy New year to you.
I hope the year of 1398 brings your all dreams into truth. I really enjoy my time when spring starts , try to do some exercise every morning , and eat a little , this is my observation for new year. of course I was sleeping at the time of changing of year {-: {-: {-:
The year of 1398 was named “ pick-up in production” it means the government and the nation try to boost the production in our country “ the name of year was labeled by leader ,Ayatollah Khamenei . it is excellent but not enough , my opinion is that we should start all of atomic activities as soon as possible. The name of Pick-up in production and boosting the atomic activities is most befitting of this year.
At present the world are like a jangle, the dominant law is only power and force, if we have not enough power, we will be killed and eaten by wolfs, the blood of wolfishness is in the vessels , it reaches to their veins from their ancestors successively ,they are descendants of wolfs in form of human body.
They made a lot of atomic bombs, atomic cups , missiles, and become rulers of the worlds, the most dangerous power for world is US and his followers in Europe.
Moves should be removed, if it is against their benefit, it is their strategy,… they don’t have mercy on their own people and friends, let alone Iran. The wildness is in their essence , although they are wearing a suit and a diplomat bag in the hands. As the leader said
So , I believe we have the biggest power to support us ,it is God , but God say you need the tools to fight against cruelty and injustice, the tool which would be able to confront their atomic tools , we need to make atomic weapons as soon as possible although the leader Khamenei is against this idea.
The US president Trump, sent his New Year massage to Iran, told a lot of lies and threatened Iran. Who is Trump , from which country , A country which is dating to 500 years ago , when some pirates immigrated, attacked to Indians and captured their lands, … now the CEO in pirates club speak what is right ,what is wrong in the world , the world reached to the end ,the ultimate madness
I agree with you about capitalism, the capitalism reached to climax in France and it cases many people come to street against capitalism system.

Hi Mohsen,

Happy New Year to you too. Thank you very much for your message.

I agree with you. What you have said about the US and Europe is true. However, we should not deny that what we do and say may be untrue too. Judging is a two-edged knife. I strongly disagree with focusing on our own positive features and other's negative ones. This is unfair and self-fooling. We MUST avoid self-fooling.
I wish you more success in 1398.

Post by behnam »

Hi my dear friend Mohsen,

How are you doing? I hope you are doing well. Happy Ramadan to you too. I hope you will enjoy every second of it. Please remember me when you are breaking your fast. Wish me good things please.

Right now, it is raining here in Tehran. This year, we had good raining. You know, mountains in Tehran have become different from what I have seen them during past years. Beautiful plants have shown themselves. The mountains are so beautiful and green this year. Thank Allah for what HE give us.

Sorry for late reply to your previous post. Self-fooling means focusing on others and noticing or counting their bad deeds, and forgetting ourselves. I meat, they are obviously bad, but it doesn't mean we are complete and one hundred percent good. I am sure you know what I am saying. Don't be naughty man! {-:

President Donald Trump proved that West only cares about benefits. They do not hold human values. They do not value real values. In other words, values are held and shared as long as they are beneficial. I think nobody in the world can deny this fact that values are values as long as they are money making. President Trump shone a powerful torch on the main philosophy of West; Capitalism. Now, every body understands what it is. Others used to cover it by fake smiles and fake kindness(prestige). Now, I myself understand why people kill human beings, but care about cats and dogs. I knew it, but now I am certain and sure about that.

West(Capitalism) says; "Values must be supported and held as long as they produce money!" I think, we must thank president Trump for revealing the hidden sides of Capitalism and uncovering it. He is an honest man, you know! {-: {-: {-: LOL!

Now, I myself understand why people kill human beings, but care about cats and dogs. I knew it, but now I am certain and sure about that.

West(Capitalism) says; "Values must be supported and held as long as they produce money!" I think, we must thank president Trump for revealing the hidden sides of Capitalism and uncovering it. He is an honest man, you know! {-: {-: {-: LOL!

All the best,

You said the fact , thank Trump for enlightening the weak minded chief people in Iran who believed in West

Thank you Mohsen. I would say that these are not really “tiny rules” but fundamental and automatic to native English speakers, not just English people. Though admittedly some of those words do occasionally trip up even native speakers ;-)

I must confess Mohsen, I had the same question as you, especially about the gates closing at the end of Ramadan. And I don't know the answer. Do you have the answer?

Hi Safari,
Yes the gates of heaven always is open , but in Ramadan Allah support the servants more than ever to pass through the gates.Ramadan is the month of the purity of one’s heart and it is the month of forgiveness. This is because in this month, Allah the Exalted shows more kindness to forgiveness compared to other months of the year. It has been said in a narration that “If you are not forgiven in Ramadan, then when will you be forgiven?” . If someone fails to achieve divine forgiveness and mercy in the month of Ramadan – during which the gates of divine mercy and forgiveness are open to humans – when will they have the blessing to do so

Hi Mohsen and Safari,
How are you doing? I hope you are you doing good and enjoying every moment of Ramadan. About opening the gates of Heaven in this holy month, I would like to say that gates of Heaven are always open to people who believe in Allah and have faith in his greatness and do good deeds. Good deeds must be saved and protected by Taghva like protecting money in bank. Putting money in a pocket with hole results in losing it.
About Ramadan, it seems Allah multiply our good deeds by a big number in this holy month. Why? That is his decision as a Lord. Instead of asking "why" we should take this opportunity to fill our bank account.
There are different interpretations to "open gates". I am sure you both know much better than me. I think that phrase is used to somehow describe the great forgiveness of Allah in Ramadan Karim. Human beings have spiritual and physical sides. The physical side has many things in common with animals. These similarities are sometimes called natural instincts. Fulfilling these physiological needs takes the majority of our energy and attention in a way that we ignore the spiritual side whereas it is human beings' main characteristic which differs us from animals. Actually, the phrase "Fatabareka Allaho Ahsan Al-Khaleghin" is used by Allah to show the importance of spiritual side of humans.
Fasting in Ramadan is like fighting with those animal
Instincts which allows our main side to grow. Growing our spiritual side results in spreading the world of sprit and restricting the world of material. It is somehow similar to converting mass to light by E=mc^2. When we become light, we travel fast and gates lose their ordinary meanings. They become widely open to us. We become light and we know that "Allah is the light of Earth and heavens".
Becoming lile light is just an analogy to make the concept understandable.
Therefore, I believe Allah's special forgiveness and mercy in this month on the one hand, and our fight with animal instincts on the other hand, give us a chance to fly rather than walk, so that gates cannot act as obstacles since flying birds are in the sky. Gates become useless in preventing us form flying towards Heaven and joining our main definition which is Allah.
I want you my dear brothers, to remember me and help me when you are flying and I am behind the gates.

All the best,
Behnam,14 May, 2019

Hi Firefox the great!
Thank you very much for replying and saying good things. Your post is full of kindness and affection, and I get that by my heart.
Right now I am on the train, going to Tabriz. I am using my smartphone. Typing with thick fingers is really difficult. :lol:
I am sure, you are flying like eagles with wide wings. You are not standing behind gates.
I am a physicist. As you know, physics involves in matter and the laws which govern their interactions. Their interactions are often shown by mathematical formulas.
Most of the physicists(Albert Einstein is excluded) do not believe in God. But, they are mistaken. They must know that something which is described by formula cannot be God. By the way, physicists have no right to judge on the existence of God through using physical laws. Steaven Hawking(I am not sure about the spelling) mistakenly said he did not see God in his formulas. But, he should have known, nobody would worship his inside-formula-seen God. In other words, in formula described God does not deserve to be worshiped by human beings.
Human beings are swimming like what fish do in oceans. They don't have any feelings about water. They are inside water, they don't understand it! Quite funny! If one takes fish and throws it out of the ocean it will know what water is. Fish will understand water when it comes out of water, but we human beings cannot understand what God is because there isn't any empty place; without God.
A physicist fish may believe ocean is the only world. He might say there is nothing else. Well, poor fish does not know anything about the sky above ocean. In some aspects, we human beings are like fish. We think what we see exists and what we don't see doesn't exist! Selfishness and self-orienting do not let us fly in the sky. We are attached to the ocean, and we prevent ourselves from flying.
Finally, I hope Ramadan gives us a chance to fly.
I wish you success in Ramadan and flying.

All the best,
Behnam, 14 May, 2019

Dear Behnam,
Thank you for your nice analogy .
At present I am close to be a light , because I have come back home , peckish , and should be ready to go to volleyball club at 6 PM .. I should rest a little to refurbish my figure and refresh my energy.
I had a dream last night , I saw one my dearest relative which had passed away many years ago. it was one of my wishes to see him for many year , and last night I met him , we both were very happy , maybe it is the reason that I am close to be light .. in fact today i am very happy and sometime weeping because of happiness :!!: :!!: :!!: :!!:

International Day of Light!

Post by behnam »

Hi my dear friends,

How are you doing? I hope you are doing good. Tomorrow is the International Day of Light. 16th May is the birthday of the first Laser. It is the birthday of Ebnee-Heysam; a Muslim famous scientist who studied light scientifically for the first time one thousand years ago.

Light is an important part of human beings' life. It had been with us from the beginning of our history on the Earth.

Light has unique characteristics. For instance, in some cercomictance it behaves like waves, in some others it behaves like particles! Depends on which feature of light is measured or examined it decides to act either as wave or particle.

My PhD field is in photonics that is investigating the light-matter interactions and managing as well as controlling light and in photonic devices. That's an interesting subject.l do love it.

Light is the only thing that Allah has used to make an analogy between himself and it. It shows the importance and uniqueness of light.

All the best,

Am I right to say that light is just part of the electromagnetic spectrum? (Which includes for example ultra-violet and infra-red, and perhaps much much more.)

And so the whole electromagnetic spectrum has unique properties?

Or is it only light (which as I understand it is the part of the electromagnetic spectrum visible to human beings - and some other animals)?

Hello Behnam

Very interesting analysis.

I wonder why some things have unique properties.

And is it true that water has unique properties too, like only water can exist in three states (solid, liquid, gas) and only water expands when it freezes?

Hello Safari the great!

How are you? I hope you are fine. You are quite right. Light refers to the visible part of electromagnetic spectrum. Actually, light is responsible for the sense of human beings' sight. Light has different wavelengths and different frequencies. However, its speed in a vacuum is about 3*10^8 m/s. This is one of the fundamental constants of nature. It plays an important role in General Relativity. In physics, the term light sometimes refers to electromagnetic radiation of any wavelength, whether visible or not. In this sense, gamma rays, X-rays, microwaves and radio waves are also light.

Refraction, reflection, absorption, dispersion, polarization, scattering etc. are some features of light. In optics, we study these properties of light. The blue sky is because of scattering. Isn't it unique?

Depends on measurement and observation, light may either behave like a wave or like a particle. Therefore, light has the properties of a wave and a particle.

Post by behnam »

Hello my friends,

16 May is the International Day of Light. On this day, in 1960 Theodore Maiman invented the first Laser. Ebne-Heysam; a Muslim scientist who studied light scientifically for the first time one thousand years ago, was born on this day. Light plays an important role in science and lives. We must appreciate it. We celebrated this day yesterday in Tabriz University.
