Moirae

By: By Ms. Mehreen Ahmed

In the cold grip of death and high alert, stands the silent land of the Lost Winds. Moral degradation has triggered a mass exodus. Those who were at great risk and in imminent danger have fled the atrocities of the regime by a boat called the Blue Moon to seek protection in a new land. Battling over the high seas through many violent tempests, their sea unworthy vessel, Blue Moon sailed for days until one evening it was spotted under the roaming beam of the light house o...

"The presence of the paradoxical absence of the ONE, and His selective random process as to who won and who didn’t was one of those many unresolved puzzles. However, His existence was as immutable as the law of gravity to the faithful. P. 131."

The Geopolitics of Energy & Terrorism, Part 6

By: By Iakovos Alhadeff

The following chapters are independent essays that were written between July 2015 and February 2016. They appear in random order, and therefore they do not have to be read in the order they appear. The issue in all the essays is the connection between the energy policies of various countries, their foreign policies, and the wars that break out at various parts of the globe, since all three are closely related. I describe many economic interests and many alliances in m...

Die 150 Psalmen haben bis heute ihre Kraft erhalten. „Die Psalmen sind für mich eins der wichtigsten Lebensmittel“, schreibt die evangelische Theologin Dorothee Sölle. „Ich esse sie, ich trinke sie, ich kaue auf ihnen herum, manchmal spucke ich sie aus, und manchmal wiederhole ich sie mitten in der Nacht. Sie sind für mich Brot. Ohne sie tritt die spirituelle Magersucht ein, die sehr verbreitet unter uns ist und oft zu einer tödlichen Verarmung des Geistes und des Herzen...

The Hero's Chamber

By: by Mrs. Ian Andrew Newton; Marcia Adams Ho, Illustrator

This book was written after having an epiphany. I literally woke up from a dream and began writing. This story is appropriate for any reader age 9 and above. You'll find no gratuitous violence, foul language or nightmarish scenes. What you will discover on these pages is an adventure unlike anything I had ever dreamed about before; a fantasy tale worthy of reading aloud and a cast of characters that could only have come from deep within a creative mind. In The Hero's ...

In the early morning hours of July 5th 2006, I woke up from a dream. Since then, I’ve tried to write down what I experienced; to express what I saw, to tell the story of my dream. The reason for my effort and the purpose of this book is to get the images, the story, the characters, and the emotions out of my head. With my dream finally down on paper, at least the first half of it, I know that I will be able to put aside the unreasonably detailed visions that have dan...

The rain covered the sound of footsteps behind him. He did not shout for help as a strong arm grabbed him from behind and another blow hit him square between the shoulders throwing him to the ground. He made no struggle as his arms were pinned behind his back. A car pulled up and he was thrown headfirst into the backseat. A female voice commanded his attacker, “Quick give me his head.” His head was lifted from the floor of the car and twisted to give unobstructed acce...

شخصية المختار الثقفي عند المؤرخين القدامى

By: by سالم الغزي

مقدمة اللجنة العلمية المختار الثقفي... رجل الأسطورة في نصرة الحق لم تعد شخصية المختار بن أبي عبيدة الثقفي شخصية درامية يتخذها البعض في تصوير مشهد تاريخي ما، بل فرضت هذه الشخصية نفسها على الحدث الإسلامي لتكون مفردة تاريخية مستقلة، وهذا يعني أن المختار ذو القابليات المتعددة صار مسرحاً للنقد والدراسة والتحليل، ومنه يُعلم مالهذه الجهود من تجاذبات فكرية تتفقُ أحياناً وتتقاطع أخرى، لتزيد المشهد التاريخي تعقيداً فوق كل تعقيداته المختلفة فهذا المختار الذي تعددت قراءات فكره وتو...
