Muslim Community: the unifying theme of Quran
Sep 2005
Quran, guidance for humankind, has a unique literary style and all the subjects it deals with gravitate
around the unifying theme
MUSLIMS believe that the Quran is the unalterable word of God[i]. It is the final revelation from God to the last Prophet[ii]
Mohammed (PBUH) and affirms all the earlier divine messages. Prophet Mohammed (PBUH) said that the best of you is who
has learnt and then taught it[iii].
The Quran deals with many subjects in classical Arabic, in a highly moving language. It blends creeds, morals, creation, laws,
rituals, philosophy, life and death, and history all in the form of a book. And it does it with a unique literary style unlike any other
book. Much has been written about this unique style and many scholars have dedicated their lives, over the centuries, to this
subject. In this essay, we do not intend to re-write the commentary on this literary style but to highlight some relevant points to
support our discussion on the unifying theme of Quran.
First, subject or chronology does not arrange Quran nor does it follow a logical sequence in its arrangement. Prophet
Mohammed (PBUH[iv]) received the divine revelations in a random order of a few verses at a time, over a period of time and
arranged them into a pre-ordained sequence, which became the final book. Under this arrangement, the Quran moves from
one topic to another in an unexpected and abrupt manner. There is no clear division of subjects into chapters and sections.
Readers often find this style difficult to follow.
Secondly, Quran covers one subject in many different chapters and to grasp the complete picture reader must refer to all the
passages with their context.
Lastly, the reader also needs to relate the subject to a central theme, which is the main unifying idea or message of the book,
to fully understand the message. Thus, to understand the book, it is important that we clearly understand the main subjects,
their context and their relation to the unifying theme of the book.
In this essay, we will examine what is the unifying theme of Quran in our opinion and how we can further highlight this theme
and perceive a relation between the apparently disparate topics.
Muslim Community is the unifying theme
The very first passage of Quran says that it is a guide for those who believe[v]. This is the recurrent theme throughout the
book. God revealed this book to provide guidance to a community of men and women, who are dutiful to their Creator. It is a
book about their history, faith, values, rituals and especially, their future. While appreciating the diversity in humankind, Quran'
s emphasis is on the identity of believers based on principles, values and morals. Quran has an inclusive approach, which is
respectful to the differences between humans but invites people of all cultures to come together to know each other, to help
each other to do good and caution each other from harm[vi].
This theme is also sustained and vindicated by history and traditions. They tell us how Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) and also
many prophets before him founded communities with shared beliefs and values and how their communities overcame
resistance to become driving forces for the social, economic and political uplift of the society. Despite a general decline in the
sense of community, the Islamic institutions of congregational prayers and taking care of poor through zakat have always
remained the main pillars of the Muslim community.
Therefore, we believe that the unifying theme of Quran is the community of Muslims and all other subjects should gravitate
around it. Quran projects this community as a group of men and women who are bound by their faith and shared values, who
respect each other for their uprightness, commitment and sense of duty and who are ready to accept anyone within their folds
without any discrimination and prejudice. Thus a strong spirit and sense of the community is found within the passages of the
We believe it is a hope and an opportunity for those who embrace the vision of a Muslim Community free from the evils of
prejudice, partiality or favoritism; the evils against which our founding father warned us[vii].
Highlighting the community perspective
With this background, we thought why not make an effort to better understand the unifying theme of the Quran. Therefore, we
decided to present our views in the form of a series of short essays to think and develop ideas. In these essays we have tried
to highlight different aspects of the Muslim Community including, its vision, mission, identity, foundation, social bonds and
Following are the essays in this series:
1. Muslim Community: the unifying theme of Quran ( this essay)
2. Muslim Community: our Vision
3. Success: our Mission
4. God Almighty: our Guardian
5. Prophets: our Leaders
6. Prophet Mohammed (PBUH): our Prophet and Messenger
7. Prophet Abraham (PBUH): our Spiritual Father
8. Submission: our Identity
9. Values: our Foundation
10. Rituals: our Social Bonds
11. Giving: our Culture
12. Voluntary Spirit: our Tradition
13. Diversity: our Strength
14. Knowledge: our Weapon
These short essays are about a thousand words long and written with a common theme, the community. These essays
provide an initial set of ideas, principles and guidelines. They need to be refined and expanded, through a process of
community dialogue that seeks an informed and wise consensus.
If our members want to share their perspective, we encourage them to contribute their essays, which can help broaden our
knowledge on this subject.
Note: If you are interested in submitting an essay please refer to guide section below.
Guide for contributing essays
Essay is a short literary composition on a single subject, usually presenting the personal view of the author.[viii]
It requires a sincere effort to understand a topic and communicate that understanding effectively and accurately. Therefore,
just like any other literary composition, essays require that the writer organizes it well, provides the evidence and reasoning
and if the subject requires further research, do some hard work.
The following are the general advice on writing an essay:
· The essay should be readily understandable.
· Display clarity of thought by clear writing.
· Use the language of everyday speech.
· Do not be arrogant and do not humiliate or criticize anybody.
· Do not take a self-righteous approach.
As a general advice follow the core values of the community

Leaf K/Na ratio predicts salinity induced yield loss in irrigated rice
- Citations
- 779 Downloads
Salinity is a major constraint to irrigated rice production, particularly in semi-arid and arid climates. Irrigated rice is a well suited crop to controlling and even decreasing soil salinity, but rice is a salt-susceptible crop and yield losses due to salinity can be substantial. The objective of this study was to develop a highly predictive screening tool for the vegetative growth stage of rice to estimate salinity-induced yield losses. Twenty-one rice genotypes were grown over seven seasons in a field trials in Ndiaye, Senegal, between 1991 and 1995 and were subjected to irrigation with moderately saline water (3.5 mS cm-1, electrical conductivity) or irrigation with fresh water. Potassium/sodium ratios of the youngest three leaves (K/NaLeaves) were determined by flame photometry at the late vegetative stage. Grain yield was determined at maturity. All cultivars showed strong log-linear correlations between K/NaLeaves and grain yield, but intercept and slope of those correlations differed between seasons for a given genotype and between genotypes. The K/NaLeaves under salinity was related to grain yield under salinity relative to freshwater controls. There was a highly significant correlation (p < 0.001) between K/NaLeaves and salinity-induced grain yield reduction: the most susceptible cultivars had lowest K/NaLeaves and the strongest yield reductions. Although there were major differences in the effects of salinity on crops in both the hot dry season (HDS) and the wet season, the correlation was equally significant across cropping seasons. The earliest possible time to establish the relationship between K/NaLeaves under salinity and grain yield reduction due to salinity was investigated in an additional trial in the HDS 1998. About 60 days after sowing, salinity-induced yield loss could be predicted through K/NaLeaves with a high degree of confidence (p < 0.01). A screening system for salinity resistance of rice, particularly in arid and semi-arid climates, is proposed based on the correlation between K/NaLeaves under salinity and salinity-induced yield losses.

South Central's all-time leading rusher Ethan Biggs has decided to continue his football career in Rochester Minnesota. The Rochester Community Yellowjackets have one of the top Junior College football programs in the country, having won two national championships in 2000 and 2007, and have suffered just one losing season since 1968.
Holding multiple offensive records at South Central High School, Biggs is unsure which side of the ball he will be playing on this fall. The Yellowjacket offensive and defensive coaches are in a battle to have Ethan at either free safety or running back. When asked which side he would rather play for Ethan said "I love running the ball, but it really doesn't matter to me as long as I can play and help the team out and hopefully win another championship". Ethan plans on studying nursing while attending Rochester.

Wait a minute, I'm intact as well. You're saying you can pull your foreskin all the back to the base of your penis? But only when flaccid, right? There's no way that's possible when erect, which is what I was talking about.
When erect, the foreskin retracts and sits behind the glans. It doesn't go all the way back to the base of the penis. Unless somebody has a magical inside/out penis. :

That's the frenulum (same word as the one under your tongue). It is very sensitive (erogenous zone) and keeps the prepuce tethered the same way the one under your tongue keeps your tongue from rolling back into your throat.
Right, so can someone help me out. The foreskin if the penis (when flaccid) is supposed to be able to be pulled back all the way to the base of your penis?! I can get it behind the head of my penis and behind the glands, but I havent actually tried pulling it all the way back to the base because I'm scred that my frenulum (banjo-string), rips or snaps or something. I'm 15 btw. Thanks a lot for any help you can give me.

Perhaps I'm unique, but I can make my foreskin roll back into itself to half way down the shaft. Doing this makes the skin on my shaft roll into itself so I guess the outer foreskin covering my glans goes back and lies on top of the skin of my shaft. Best way I can describe it. I know everyone's different and foreskins can have different mobility and thickness and looseness factors. Mine is very mobile, thick and loose that I can do this. Since the only the owner fo the penis should see how far back the foreskin can go, it's based on what feels right without causing pain.
...Here's what I don't get, though. Is that much sensitive nerve-dense skin really removed? Is circumcision removal of the foreskin or removal of part of the foreskin (exposing the glans.) To me, any is "too much," when it comes to function and sensitivity. I tend to think of my circ'd husband as being "without a foreskin," because I don't notice anything covering his penis, but the men in those photos look pretty much like him when erect & retracted. The shaft looks the same and it makes me wonder if that part of the foreskin is there while the important end is cut. And then with every circumcision, it is a matter of how much they cut. Then again, we are talking about infants here, and the amount of skin that is cut perhaps really does remove most or all of the foreskin (even what would cover the shaft)???
...So given that an intact, flaccid male can retract all the way back to the base of his penis, is ALL of that skin gone in circumcised men? Is that extra "play" in the shaft skin (that might get pulled back that far as easily as pulled toward the glans, as in my husband's case) the remaining foreskin? (Even though it doesn't seem like a separate layer of skin that peels back to reveal anything underneath; it just seems like skin on the shaft.)
I just wondered at the statement that all of that skin was removed. We can see a flaccid penis being "fully retractable" but does that mean we can assume that ALL of that skin was removed in circumcision?

Why did in universe have darkness
Why did in universe have darkness
Because that space is nothingness there is "nothing" and since black is the absence of the wavelengths of the visible light spectrum, it makes sense for the universe space to "look" black
Colors exist only in the mind, they are our mind's perception of light. "Black" is how our mind interprets the absense of visible light. If our eyes could see X-rays we might see the "black" of space another color, since it's rife with other forms of radiation. And once a day or so we would see a bright "flash" of gamma radiation believed to be caused during certain cataclysmic solar events.

The World Klumper championchips in Tulfes
With success the Klumper Union in Tulfes made a vision become reality. Every fourth year the World Klumper Championship takes place in the lovely village of Tulfes at the border of the Glungezer ski area.
A little excursus about the 1st Klumper world championship in Tulfes:
170 participants registered, almost all of them arrived for the start. What particularly impressed them was the great course and extremely well-organised race sequence.
It was a beautiful winter's day and Tulfes was at its best. Perfect weather and a perfectly groomed piste with a parallel slalom marked out by chief race steward, Manfred Arnold … the overall scene for all those present on the Halsmarter slopes was a very impressive one.
The racing began with only a five-minute delay and right from the start the locals had to swallow a bitter pill. Just a few metres from the finish, the favourite and winner of the pre-world championships, Andreas Arnold, lost control of his klumper and sailed past the finishing post on the wrong side of the track, which is an infringement of the rules and the result is disqualification.
South Tyrolean in top form
The first racers from Olang / South Tyrol - the home of "klumping" - came in with some unbelievable times. They shot down the piste with an almost acrobatic skill and at a breathtaking speed: It was soon quite obvious to the contestants from Tulfes that the Italian opposition were going to be impossible to beat. The local favourites - Fritz Kirchmair, Günter Steger, Hannes Gabmair - were unable to match the incredible performances of the South Tyroleans and could only hope for a miracle in the semi-final and final races. Even the top local klumper riders did not get on well with the piste and an unusually large number of them fell by the wayside because of infringements or falls.
Despite the many - in some cases spectacular - falls, the course doctor, Klaus Schweitzer, who kindly took on this important role unpaid, had nothing to do on both days, as thankfully none of the contestants sustained any injuries.
The situation for the ladies was better. The world championship title again went to our Olang rivals, but Alexandra Putzer and Barbara Kössler saved Austria's reputation with a superb second and third place.
The first part of the men's results table read as if it was an Italian club championship with all places from 1 to 6 going to our guests from the south. Only Hannes Gambair and René Gaber made it through to the finals and had to be satisfied with places 7 and 8. The flawless style of the klumper boys from Olang was simply too much for the Tulfes team, although everything was tried and many brave attempts by our racers to push it to the limit ended with an infringement.
The mood among the - mainly local - spectators, however, remained buoyant, and on the basis of credit where credit is due, the great performances by South Tyrolean racers were generously acclaimed.
Extravagant celebrations
The world championships party began in a packed club-house with the award ceremony starting on the dot at 20.00.
Chair Maria Gaber used her address to thank the many helpers and then paid her respects to the South Tyroleans with the words: "My God, today you really showed us where the klumper came from". Then the prizes for children and teenager races were awarded.
Mayor Josef Gatt's speech also paid tribute to the neighbours from the south and then became unusually emotional when he started talking about the World Klumper Championships. "I am very proud to be the mayor of a town that stages a world championship." He then thanked Tulfes' klumper club under the direction of Maria Gaber for her hard work organising the championship. She received many generous plaudits from way beyond the confines of Tulfes.
Then came the highlight of the evening, the awarding of the medal to the world champion.
Rankings 7 and 8 won prizes, whereas 6 to 1 won cash and prizes. Mayor Josef Gatt, Fritz Kopriva from Galbani and Martin Reiter, Tiroler Versicherung's marketing director, presented the medals.
Frenzied cheering throughout the club-house greeted the arrival on the podium of the women's world champion, Christiane Jud. And the mood as the Italian national anthem was played and the spectators rose from their seats was also emotional.
As men's world champion received his award things really took off. The boys from South Tyrol were enthusiastically applauded by all present. The winner, Wolfgang Jud, was visibly moved. Once again, everyone rose to their feet as the Italian national anthem was played.
After this undoubtedly dignified award ceremony, the group XDREAM from Upper Austria kept the atmosphere upbeat with some extraordinarily good music and skilful performances. A big thank you to band-leader Hannes and sound engineer Helmut for their contribution, and that includes the sound volume.
Another of the evening's highpoint was the appearance at 22.30 of the Volderer Muller, a traditional 60-man band which fired up the spectators into a frenzy. Our foreign guests were totally amazed. We should not forget the two fire dancers who performed around midnight. Everyone was greatly impressed and the spectacle deservedly received rapturous applause.
All in all, the world klumper championships were undoubtedly the highlight of 2006 in Tulfes. Many visitors saw our village at its best and must have taken many enduring memories home with them. The event organisation was beyond reproach, everything from the issuing of starting numbers to the closing of the bar in the early hours of the morning went like clockwork, and that is only possible if an exceptionally good team is working together with total commitment. Once again all praise to the Klumper club for organising this fantastic event.

Local hero triumphed for the first time at the second Klumper World Cup
The Klumper World Cup was held for the second time on 6 February 2010, with a flurry of these unique toboggans hurtling downhill. Over 100 participants battled for the top positions in some closely-fought parallel slalom duels. Austria took the Ladies' World Championship title. Bianca Schweitzer made the organiser's dream of World Championship victory come true with an overall final time of 38.56 seconds. Thomas Mutschlechner from South Tyrol was the World Klumper Champion in the men's final with an overall time of 36.68 seconds.
Over 100 Klumper fans descended on Tulfes in the Hall-Wattens region, where the World Championships were being contested for the second time. Athletes from Austria, France, Germany, Italy, Czech Republic and New Zealand fought thrilling duels despite heavy snowfall, reaching breathtaking speeds of around 70 km/h on the parallel slalom.
While all titles went to participants from South Tyrol at the first World Championships in 2006, Bianca Schweitzer secured the top spot in the ladies' event this year in Tulfes. Strong South Tyrolean performers Christiane and Katrin Jud took second and third places in the ladies' championship, while Alexander Jud and Markus Hofer, also from Italy, took second and third in the men's event. Sandra Rohr from Germany took sixth spot.
The origins of the Klumper
The idea for the Klumper originally came from neighbouring South Tyrol. On a visit to the 1972 World Luge Championships in Olang in South Tyrol, a group from Tulfes came across the "Rennböckele", a type of toboggan with a single blade. It consisted of an iron rail attached to the underside of the main plank, with a wooden seat fixed diagonally to it. The visitors from Tulfes were keen tobogganists and decided to construct their own version. They replaced the iron blade with a short ski and decided to call it a "Klumper", as they could no longer remember the original name. Tulfes Klumper Club (Klumperverein Tulfes) was established and held its first championships. The club currently has over 100 enthusiastic members, and the annual Klumper race attracts an average of 70 participants.
Weekly Klumper fun for locals and visitors
Visitors can learn the art of klumping in Tulfes, even if the World Cup has finished. Experienced professional Klumpers provide an introduction to the sport once a week. In winter 2009/10, klumping takes place every Thursday at 20:00 at the valley station of the Glugenzerbahn mountain railway. Countless fans and riders make their way to the floodlit practice area and are always amazed at how quickly and easily they can learn the art of klumping. Simply sit on the Klumper, take it for a few runs and you are perfectly qualified for the race held at 21:00. And the best thing of all is that you don't need to be a top athlete. Children, parents and even grandparents take part in the thrilling descent and show their newly acquired skills in slalom racing. Everyone can take part for a small entry fee (€3.60 for adults, €1.80 for children). Everyone who takes part in the visitor's race receives a small wooden Klumper and a certificate as a souvenir. You can also warm up in the cosy cabin with a glass of mulled wine and discuss your riding style and cornering techniques with the professional Klumpers.

Gunnedah mayor spruiks budget surplus
The Gunnedah Shire Council mayor says the council's unexpected budget surplus is a credit to the strong financial management team.
A review of the council's financial condition shows a budget of $2.7 million, up from a surplus the previous year.
Mayor Adam Marshall says some of the funds will be directed towards the roads budget.
He says the surplus was delivered through improved returns on investments and increased revenue from private works.
"We've requested a detailed report be prepared for the next council meeting looking to work out the amount of that surplus to basically increase the current allocation in this year's management plan for roads," he said.
"Obviously at the moment we've got a very wet period and the condition of our roads has deteriorated somewhat."

Fergie Dresses as 'Toddlers and Tiaras' Princess for Halloween (PHOTOS)
Fergie went all out for Heidi Klum's annual Halloween party last night in New York. The Black Eyed Peas singer channeled her inner child and dressed as a pageant girl from Toddlers and Tiaras. Complete with a flirty pink costume, tiara, sashe and trophy, Fergie looked the part. The Halloween costume and shoes, designed by Marco Marco, were even completely encrusted in Swarovski crystals!
Fergie looked like she enjoyed herself, posing for photographers and hanging out her car window as she left the Dream Downtown party early in the morning. What do you think about Fergie's costume? Sound off in the comments.
Meanwhile, Fergie has been busy performing. Most recently, she flaunted all her curves as she hit the stage at the iHeartRadio Music Festival in Las Vegas. The 36-year-old singer stunned as she paraded around in a black sequin leotard, fishnet stockings and thigh high boots.

Looking for some guidance on how to produce a simple (but formatted) list of contact details (phone, address, email etc...) into a contract list direct from Active Directory.
Recommendations that does this for you or a simple process to produce one is what I'm looking for that could then be printed (if needed).
Internally no programming resource, so please do not flood responses with C# code on how to achieve this - just looking for some ideas as to how other "Spicers" have done this if at all.
(Query prompted by receptionist typo'ing too many things too many times on a manual contact list when all the "Correct" information is already in AD)

KIT is an IT service provider.
Microsoft has a page on how to export the whole list to a CSV and then you can sort and keep what you want.

About Me
The photographers' skill is not dependent on location nor on his equipment, many famous photographers have captured exceptional images with a Polaroid or Toy Camera.
When the model is tired, or cannot perform for the camera, it is the photographers responsibility to get creative, even when the model is passed out (the show must go on); perfect example GIA (rent the movie, starring Angelina Jolie).
A models entire career depends on the photographers' skills – he is the primary person whose skill is used to capture the images that will be used to promote and hire the model – the model utilizes these images to make money .
At times, these images are captured without the use of a Makeup Artist, Hair Stylist, etc. therefore, when these other creative individuals are used, ALL the hard work can be wasted if the photographer does not have the skills.

text: The incident reportedly took place yesterday at Gboko. The man was accused of stealing the baby from a house at Bristow round-about. "We just heard the baby's mother screaming 'thief, thief' and we came out only to see the boy running with the baby," a source told NNN."Some boys in the area collected the baby and started beating him while the others were looking for tyre and calling more people to come out. He was begging and crying but the other boys did not listen," the source added.

But are we too entangled in our present money system? Are we too preoccupied with money? Do we have to be?
Recently I came across a documentary called "The Money Fix." It raises questions about our attitudes toward money and proposes other solutions.
It makes an excellent case for local or complementary currency systems. But it goes beyond that to explain mutual credit systems.
These mutual credit arrangements are a kind of organized barter. They're not based on scarcity or interest payments. This can be done not only among individuals in a community, but among businesses, too.
You may not agree with all of the ideas discussed in this hour and twenty minute presentation. But watch it all the way through to see how they all fit together.
Could this film plant seeds for the development of viable prepper communities?
Watch "The Money Fix"
Get more perspective on the secret of monetary survival and silver slippers.
Get perspective on what happens when money fails.

In fact, there were a few gasps when the Telegraph's Robert Winnett, who collected the political reporter award, narrowly missed out on the more prestigious reporter of the year.
Telegraph editor-in-chief Will Lewis won journalist of the year. He said: "If ever there was a story that proves news still sells newspapers, I suspect this was it."
Freedom of Information campaigner Heather Brooke also won a special award for her role exposing MPs' expenses.
Boris's job swaps
Guest speaker Boris Johnson made a jolly speech about coming to the Press Awards "to sue for peace" on behalf of all politicians after "you have bugged our phones, abolished our second-home allowances".
The Mayor suggested journalists and politicians should swap jobs: "I encourage all of you to put all your expenses online. Broken, broke, Brokeback Britain can wait no longer for the political probity that you will bring."
Confusion at Carolyn's Guardian
Guardian chief Carolyn McCall's decision to leave the paper in the lurch by quitting to run easyJet was the talk of the Press Awards. Will Lewis joked: "If anyone from The Guardian, or Carolyn, is here: Doors to manual.'"
The mood on The Guardian tables was not lifted by compere John Humphrys who made a sombre speech about the financial state of journalism and singled out The Guardian because of its refusal to make readers pay for content online while still charging £1 a day in print. "I don't understand," said the Radio 4 newsman firmly.
All is shining for Elisabeth Murdoch
Elisabeth Murdoch is celebrating after her Shine TV production company, with global turnover of £265 million, was crowned the biggest UK indie in Broadcast's annual survey.
But All3Media, previously ranked number one, might not be thrilled as its international revenues apparently weren't included. On a global basis, All3Media easily topped a similar survey by Televisual last autumn with £400 million turnover...
Time to pay up online
No wonder The Times and Sunday Times are keen to launch an internet pay wall. New accounts show the two papers recorded a pre-tax loss of £88 million in the year to June 2009 while The Sun and News of the World were £40 million in the black.
The rival Daily Mirror — which, at 45p, costs more than twice the discounted Sun — doesn't disclose profits but a source says it made "at the top end of £45 million-£55 million" last year.
Can news websites be Robin Hoods?
"The economics of free are killing serious journalism" is the motion at tonight's Intelligence Squared debate in Westminster where speakers include ex-Five boss David Elstein, Spectator chief Andrew Neil and columnist AA Gill.
Elstein, who opposes the motion, advocates "freemium" — a hybrid of free and pay — after his experience backing website openDemocracy, which covers global news: "If just 10% of openDemocracy's two million unique users every year contributed £1 each, that would cover the entire year's running costs. The question is: how to secure such input simply and cheaply, while not shutting out 90% of our readership?"
Elstein has an intriguing idea — make the site free for those in the poorest countries, charge in more prosperous ones.
Countdown from Five
Could RTL chief executive Gerhard Zeiler be ready to sell Channel Five soon? Announcing annual results two weeks ago, Zeiler ruled out a sale despite his UK broadcaster losing £37 million last year but he does expect "consolidation" across the sector. So it's intriguing fresh rumours are doing the rounds this week that Five is suddenly very keen to schmooze the new leadership at Channel 4...
