Happy Ramadan to Muslim friends,

Imam Kazim (AS) said

…Praise is due to Allah Who determined His month, Ramadan, the month of fast, Islam, cleanliness, purity, and standing up (for worship and vigil), as a way (of benevolence).

FemaleMosq: Ok fine, now go to sleep

Man deserves what he strives for

There is no question that the divine decree extends along with the level of our own efforts and hard work. The verses of the Quran have explicitly memtioned this issue

" and that nothing belongs to man except what he strives for "

(53-39)

" Every soul is hostage to what it has earned"
(74-38)

How can I overcome the fear of speaking English?

This is a more common problem than you would imagine!.

Can you just get in to the water and swim after reading a 100 page book on "Know How to swim?! You can't! And speaking English is exactly the same. You can learn it only by doing it. And don't worry about making grammatical mistakes while speaking. Everyone whose mother tongue is not English makes it at some point or other even after speaking in English for 3 decades!

No one is going to ridicule you for speaking with mistakes or using wrong words. So just start speaking in English. Faster way would be to speak it at least 60% of the time with your friends or any one else.

And also don't make the common mistake of confusing "speaking fast" with fluency! It is NOT! One thumb rule is to speak very slowly. And reading advertisements in newspapers/magazines would greatly help. They use simplest of words which even a school drop out can understand but convey the message to the reader!

Hey you
I don't know who u r
What religion u believe in
What thoughts u r fond of
What I'm sure about, is ur existence, u r human just like these innocent #Palestinian ppl, and as far as all we know, we basically care about each other
I bet u go shocked watching cruelty to animals, I wonder why some ppl r indifferent to the same cruelty to human beings
Is it like u r more #human?
Is it like animals r more respectful to some ppl?
Ppl in 21st century assert that racism is over
But they care more about European ppl than others
I'm telling you, #racism is still breathing
Ya, it's still alive and going more public...

For ur information :
#Israel is bombarding #Palestine right now
230 casualties
65 #children
39 women
More than 17000 injuries
And over 72000 displaced
So far

Soothing beliefs

A pious man was asked why you are so calm

He said that after years of study and experience, I built my life on five principles.

I knew that no one would eat my sustenance,So I calmed down.

I knew that God watch over me, so I showed modesty
I knew no one else was doing my job, so I tried
I knew that the end of my work was death, so I was ready.

I knew that good and evil would not disappear and would return to me in the end, so I added good and reduced evil.

Iranian friends, long time no see!

The other day, I was recommended through the app on my cell phone a video seemingly made by an Iranian cameraman telling a story of a local family in your dear country.

The wife is hated by her husband, who is a policeman and tries to divorce the woman, and who resorts to domestic violence when declined. But still the wife stays unyielded to this brutal man in her life. Then the man changes his tactics by having a priest of a local mosque to seduce his wife, with a helper involved who looks like a decent and honest guy but turns out to be a coward. When later the wife is caught in the affair, the coward and the priest, under the coercion of the bad husband, say a lot of words at the law court to the disadvantage of the fooled lady.
At that time, only the aunt of this lady offers help, but as a woman, she cannot do much in this man-dominating country. Her own father and sons are very furiated knowing that his daughter or their mother is doing adultery to the man he calls son-in-law and they call father.

The best part or the most shocking part of the film then hit my eyes: This poor wife is taken by force to the village square over the alledged love affairs with other men than her husband, and put into a hole dug for her. All the men and women of the whole rural village where she lives gather before her, who is then buried with soil up to her waist and cannot move. Then the shower of stone begins...The first thrower is her father,with a small piece of small stone, but he misses, then her sons, cannot hit the target after a few attempts, then her husband, with a bigger stone this time, and bingo, the woman bleeds when her head is hit hard...

My dear friends, I cannot go on... it is too shocking...Can you give some explanation about this primitive culture?

[Mohsen]

Hi , I am here , better than ever

Do not judge a culture by watching a movie. Quite the opposite. Iran is a women dominating country. Iranian respect Women more that whatever you think , you can come to Iran and get the reality of Iran culture .

There are a number of traitors who are making films against Iran with the support of the Zionists. Over the past few years, the Americans and the Zionists have suffered the biggest blows from Iran.

In Israel's 11-days war against Palestine, Palestinians were under the most brutal Israeli attacks but the defenseless Palestinians were able to resist for eleven days by using the missiles which were design by Iran for them, and Netanyahu was forced to seek help from the United States, and the United States mediated with Egypt until a ceasefire was declared.


What do you expect from them? They have been pressing Iran for years. Cultural aggression is a political tool of them and they try to portray Iran as a country with a black culture in the eyes of the world.

Iran is a civilized country with a history of thousands of years. What do you expect from this cowboy now? They have colonial roots.
One day Napoleon kills three million Europeans. One day, Hitler killed eight million Europeans,let me don't speak about England ( the Admin is from England ).

It was the turn of the United States and Israel to build ISIS. They gave them weapons and ammunition, money .....everything They support them with warplanes, drone , heliboard and sent ISIS to Syria and Iraq , a road which Ended to Iran to destroy Iran. With the victory of the Quds Force of Iran under the command of General Soleimani and the deployment of Iranian forces to Syria and Iraq, all US and Israeli plans failed. When ISIS was annihilated,they brutally killed General Soleimani at the Iraqi airport.


My dear .. before you judge a movie. Try to understand the reality of the world

[SitangCampus]

OK, I know it is just a movie, but as we all know there is no smoke without fire and if there was no such thing in real life in the country, people could not have written such a story in a movie.

And you suggested us to know more about this world, yes, I agree with you, but how can we do that without being influenced by others? Most of the time we could only get second- or third-hand information.

For example, www.presstv.com is one of the media in Iran, if what I know is correct. It left an impression on me that this TV station does not have any woman anchor, so it says something, if not a lot, about the woman status in that country.

In other countries around the world, women work very actively in news media and air transport service, like in China, my homeland.They not only make the world look better, but help soften the tension in the society. You know that recently there is a hot video clip in fire in China which tells a police woman of a small city warned or rectified the violators of traffic rules with her soft voice. Many audience said they want to have this lady to be their wife.

Pakistan, Bangladesh, India, Sri Lanka are male-dominated countries, but it is weird that they all had women as their top leaders once or now. China claims itself to be a country where "women can hold up half of the sky", but till now, not a single woman has ever been appointed or elected to be the No.1 boss of the country, or even come close to that position. So I feel ashamed too, when I am trying to embarrass you.

[Mohsen]

Life is like that. People will cause you pain, hurt you, put you down, make you feel bad about yourself, as if you’re the bad one! It’s how you react that will determine the outcome. They are powerless until you choose to empower them. Don’t give them the ammunition they need!

[Mohsen]

Time is one of the greatest blessings from the Almighty God. Respect it and spend it wisely because once gone, you won’t get it back. Some don’t respect your time, because they are trying to satisfy their own priorities so when people don’t respect your time, stop giving it to them!

[Mohsen]

Don’t mind those who constantly criticize you. They’re actually the ones who dare not admit that they've certain flaws. That’s why they will strongly defend themselves if you tried to help them. Pray for them, and take whatever they say with a huge pinch of salt!

Hi dear Friends,
I was infected by Corona 20 days ago .
I was in hospital and confined to bed for one week, many drugs were used to recovers me
At present , I have no symptom of the damned Corona ,but I have no energy in my muscles.
I should rest at home and use nourishing foods to restore my life.

One of the salient features of Abu Rihan was his curiosity and interest in personal experience.
During Abu Rihan's adolescence, it was common for people to believe that diamond is a poisonous stone, and whoever held it would die immediately. Therefore, the people of that era avoided diamonds and did not touch them.
One day Abu Rihan found a diamond. When his mother saw the diamond, she began to cry, forcing him to throw it away, but Abu Rihan hid the diamond. After a few years, this great scientist crushed the diamond and rubbed it on a piece of meat and fed it to an animal in public.
Everyone thought that the animal would die, but some time passed and the animal was healthy. Thus, Abu Rihan put an end to a baseless rumor with his experiment.

Some of them are useful

[Mohsen]

make up

Meaning:

If you make up with someone, you become friends again after having an argument or a disagreement with them.

For example:


Are you and your brother still angry at one another because of that fight you had, or did you make up?

We argue all right, but we always make up before long.

[Mohsen]

Throughout history, mankind has always loved the greatness of soul, the greatness of heart and mental courage, and that is why freedom and justice never succumb to the force of oppression and corruption; Do you know Hussain (as)?

[Mohsen]

Sometimes something happens and you keep questioning yourself and everyone around you. Like you can’t believe this is really happening. Like you haven’t seen anything of this coming. Most of times we see the bad side of the story, we see the worst thing about the event.

But at the end there is something good behind every bad story. There is something beautiful after each ugliness.

[Mohsen]

There’s something amazing about this life.

The very same worldly attribute that causes us pain is also what gives us relief: Nothing here lasts. What does that mean? It means that the breathtakingly beautiful rose in my vase will wither tomorrow. It means that my youth will neglect me. But it also means that the sadness I feel today will change tomorrow. My pain will die. My laughter won’t last forever but neither will my tears. We say this life isn’t perfect. And it isn’t. It isn’t perfectly good. But, it also isn’t perfectly bad, either.

[Mohsen]

Hi dear Friends

Is always worth asking what we need or should we just go with the flow?

Our wishes and desires never remain the same. Today we want one thing and tomorrow another. Today the people, the relationships and the lifestyle that matters you, tomorrow you might not want at all.

The universe has something in store for each one of us. It gives us what is best for us but most of us interrupt this process of life. We always want things to happen our way and want every desire to be fulfilled. Our vision for life is only short sighted. We cannot see what will follow. When we force and compel that our wishes be granted, we don’t realise that what if that gain might lead to a loss at a later stage. Sometimes when things are not working your way, you have to trust the process of life.

Don’t try to control everything in your life. There is a reason for everything to happen. When you trust the process, whatever happens, is best for you.

Positive Thinking Positive Life

[Mohsen]

On this first day of the New Year, it is our greatest wish for everyone, a year of health, prosperity, love, light and happiness. Today is the perfect day to take a moment to think all that we are blessed with. To reflect on all that we do have, and not on what we don’t. From there, you can truly focus on what you wish to create through your Intentions. It is the best gift we can give to ourselves, to all we know and love, and to the world. Remember, to truly have a Happy New Year, we must create it! Then, when you do, share it with the world!

Hi there!
This is Behnam. How are you my dear friends? I hope you are doing great.
I am so sorry for leaving you alone for a quite long time. For some reasons, I had to stop such activities; writing on the Internet and similar things.
I am so happy that my special and dear friend Mohsen the great is still here. I would like to thank him for his great attempts to keep this forum active. Thank you very much indeed.
I hope my friends are still coming to this place and reading our posts.
As you may know, I am practicing French. Unfortunately
I made no progress in it, and I lost my English too. Instead of killing two birds with one stone, I lost all my stones without killing any birds. French is a difficult language. Do not blame me s'il vous plait!
I promise to be active here. Please join us and let's learn together again!

Hi Mohsen,

How are you doing? In French people often say "comment ca va?". I hope you are doing well.
Mohsen, you are very good at setting account information. I have got a question, and need your help: how can I change my username? I tried, but I could not change it. I know how to change other things like signature, profile etc.but for resetting username, I could do nothing! As you know, my username is "behnam", I prefer to write it as "Behnam" or something else, such as "Professor Behnam"!

I am waiting for your help. Take a photo of the place where I must go and change my username. Apply "Visual teaching method" please!

Hi friends,

I have been writing and posting about different topics since 2012 on this powerful and useful site; Englishclub.com! Many people have participated in completing this thread and making it a good place to be in. I thank them for their participation.

We have written about different things. In one of the posts,
I have mentioned that loneliness or feeling lonely is one of the biggest problems of humanity in 21st. century. At that time, it was a prediction, but nowadays it has become a serious problem for us! These days, in public places as well as at houses people and family members are busy with their cellphones. They are actually alone. They rarely speak with each other. This is a fact, regardless of its bitterness!

The second thing that I personally had predicted was marriage with animals. A few years ago, speaking about human beings sexual relationships with animals was a matter of being much too much pessimistic. However, these days it is a matter of prestige! In some nations animal marriage is still hidden, but it is not possible to deny that.

Shame on human beings! Where are we going? Is there a limitation or a final point for mankind's stupidity? I don't think so!

All the best,
Behnam, 8 January, 2022
