Vote for King Abdullah for a Nobel Peace Prize

You are all cordially invited to vote for King Abdullah Bin Abdul Aziz Al Saud for a Nobel Peace Prize. In unprecedented initiative, the king -- we all admit -- has endeavored to bring together Islam, Judaism, Christianity and other faiths in an Interfaith Dialogue that opens a new page of humanity in the twenty-first century -- and and he continues to do so. I think every one should vote in favour of our great kingat the following website:  http://www.votefornobelprize.com/

US soldiers and Iraqi Kids

Trustworthiness is defined as honesty and/or truthfulness and is a moral value considered to be a virtue not only in Islam but also in Christianity. In fact, it is a virtue in every religion. From this it follows that a trustworthy person is someone in whom we can place our trust and can rest assured that the trust will not be betrayed. The person can prove his/her trustworthiness by fulfilling an assigned responsibility, duty or job -- and as an extension of that, to not let down our expectations. The responsibility can be either materialistic, such as delivering a mail package on time, or it can be a non-materialistic such as keeping a promise or keeping an important secret to oneself. For instance, the brutal and war criminal Sadam Hussain was not trustworthy and this is obvious to the whole world and needs no evidence. It is quite enough to know that Sadam killed his own people with biological weapons. Sadly, the new promising American policy was no exception. Some American soldiers were not trustworthy in taking care of Iraqi people and of Iraqi kids in particular. They (some American soldiers; I am not saying all!) proved to be untrustworthy for a couple of reasons.

Bittersweet Nepotism is all around

This is written in a response to a cartoon drawn by Rabea – Al-Riyadh, on July 20 2003 in ARABNEWS newspaper. First and foremost, I’d like to express my immense gratitude to Rabea for bringing up such topic. Secondly, I’d like to accentuate on this matter as it is of great importance. Thus,

Nepotism without doubt has become a seriously disseminated phenomenon practiced throughout the Kingdom, and has been an issue of great significance, that has to be settled and adjudicated right away. Such dangerous matter, as it is, is marked by not only utter injustice but also clear-cut partiality and crystal-clear deception of one’s faith as well as of line of work.
