English is not my fir...

Allah nous a créés homme et femme afin que nous puissions réfléchir sur le bonheur qui émane de notre vie de couple sans réflexion, il nous sera difficile de découvrir la saveur du bonheur et même, nous serons plus assujettis à nos passions et à nos instincts. Nous serons par conséquent une proie facile pour les guides égarés. La réflexion (raison) est le symbole humain (on est Homme qu’à l’usage de sa raison) et l’Islâm, religion divine dans toute sa pureté, appelle ...

«votre seigneur, c’est Dieu, Celui qui créa les cieux et la terre en six jours...» (5.7 :54) Que de nobles versets révélés dans les livres célestes et dont seuls les gens de la vérité et de la guidance ont appéhendé leurs sens immenses et glorieux et se sont prosternés devant le Révélateur de ces versets, Créateur et organisateur de l’univers. Certains exégètes et commentateurs se sont étendus dans leurs commentaires en diffusant dans leurs nombreux livres religieux qu...

Si tu n'a pas de connaissance sur ton Créateur qui t'a amené dans ce monde, comment pourras-tu arriver au bonheur? Observe tes deux mains!! Qui les a faites de cette façon? Sans ces mains comment pourrais-tu travailler? N'est-ce pas que tes doigts te servent!! Ne lances-tu pas un regard sur tes ongles? N'attirent-t-ils pas ton attention?

Beaucoup de gens pensent que la foi en Dieu exige la lecture de plusieurs livres religieux et également se pencher sur leurs études ou bien d'avoir la parfaite maitrise de la langue arabe et ses règles. Cela ne fait aucun doute que ces lectures ainsi que ces études aident celui qui cherche la foi mais elles ne font pas de lui un croyant (pieux). La foi en Dieu est obligatoire à tout Être de ce monde, et à partir du fait qu'elle est une obligation cela signifie que les o...

In his programmatic and data-laden tome, "Capital in the Twenty-first Century" (2014), Thomas Piketty makes several assertions, two of which merit a closer look: (1) That r (the return on capital) is, in the long-run always greater than g (the growth of the real economy), thus enriching the rich; and (2) that inherited wealth tends to create a "patrimonial" form of capitalism, akin to the aristocracy in the French and British ancient regimes. Putting aside the somewh...

“Go now and wander for the welfare and happiness of many, out of compassion for the world, for the benefit, welfare and happiness of gods and men. Teach the Dhamma that is good in the beginning, good in the middle and good in the end, with the meaning and the letter. Explain a holy life that is utterly perfect and pure. There are beings with little dust in their eyes who will be lost through not hearing the Dhamma. Some will understand the Dhamma.”

Even if he is a very popular character, still not many people know his original history! Nowadays there are so much exaggerated stories and wrong information about him, that it is often confusion in “who was he really?”.

Even the real character that lived in the XV century and inspired the creation of the fictional Dracula, the Walachian Prince Vlad Ţepeş (or Vlad the Imp...
