NARUTO

The most popular and comon anime is Naruto, it has a very interesting story and is probably the most intruguing shounen( the manga in which lead is a male character) I have ever read.
In another world, ninja are the ultimate power–and in the village of Konoha live the stealthiest ninja in the world. But sixteen years ago Konohagakure was attacked by a fearsome threat–a nine-tailed fox demon which claimed the life of the Hokage, the village champion. Today, peace has returned, and a trouble making orphan named Uzumaki Naruto is struggling to graduate from the Ninja Academy. His goal: to become the next Hokage. But unknown to Naruto and his classmates, within him is a terrifying force.
Its also one of the most longest anime is still ongoing, it has tons of fanfictions as well. I read those alot.

The two main characters in the story, Naruto and Sasuke are friends in the beginning but they end up being eternal rivals. saskue has a cold and indifferent personality while naruto is lively and cheerful. Most fanfictions make Naruto and Sasuke a couple which doent even exist.

One of the most unique things about Naruto is that, it has so many different characters. There are all kinds of personality types.

Hijaab of Speech

Talking with non-mehrams( strangers) :

Allah ordered the women to talk to the non-mehram ( unknown men) in a tone which may not make him misunderstand their intentions.
Quran [33:32] …………… be not too complacent of speech, lest one in whose heart is a disease should be moved with desire: but speak you a speech (that is) just.

Islam has forbidden Non-mahrams to meet except in the presence of Maharams ( immediate relative). Many steadfast muslims who have ignored this particular rule haves gotten to a point where they start doing things like kissing, touching certain body parts and just inappropriate stuff. They both know that its  wrong, ask forgiveness and end up doing it again.

Quran [33:33] And stay quietly in your houses, and make not a dazzling display, like that of the former Times of Ignorance; and establish regular Prayer, and give regular Charity; and obey Allah (God) and His Apostle…………………..
The Holy Prophet (p.b.u.h) said to men: “None of you should meet a woman in privacy unless she is accompanied by a mahram (unmarriageable kin).”

I love Winter!!

I love Winter!!

I was ecstatic when I woke up on Monday morning to find it snowing outside, I didn’t realize it was snowing until after when I left the house, while waiting for the bus at the bus stop. Since it was my first time seeing snow fall and it was only light snow shower, I didn’t immediately acknowledge it. But after that when it started snowing heavily I was so happy. Since childhood it had been my dream to live somewhere where it snows and is really cold. Coming from a really hot country I am sure my love for snow is understandable, but as I came unprepared for such cold weather, and after a while my hands started turning numb, I didn’t adore snow as much as before. Now I know that it can be very inconvenient, especially getting up in winters is really hard. But no matter what I still love snow, and I enjoyed it a lot, having snow ball fight with my brothers in my yard. And despite my mothers constant scolding I hardly ever wear a jacket unless its very cold, I feel like if I wear a jacket I wont be able to enjoy the cold as much and also I just cant take the heat. I am so glad there has been no sun for days; Seattle’s winter is just awesome!!

EID MUBARAK!

One day left for Eid ….

Ah!! thinking about that brings back a flood of memories. My last Eid when I was in Pakistan was the most wonderful in my life. I still remember how me and my friends sat in a circle in the college grounds on the last day of school before Eid vacation. We sat under the sun and chatted for hours while doing henna on each others arms. It was so much fun we all would gather around the one was best at making henna designs and wait in turns. We used to cover all ours arms and dry them under the sun. we discussed the patterns designs and colors of the outfits we were going to wear on Eid day. Celebrating Eid together with your friends and family, now I know the worth of it. My first Eid here was so boring and colorless. I didn’t feel like it was a celebration at all. I will call all my friends back home on this Eid. I sure hope its fun………………………….

KAICHOU WA MAID-SAMA!

Also known as "Our student Council President is a Maid!" Kaichou wa Maid-sama! is a shoujo manga series by Hiro Fujiwara. It Genres are Comedy, Romance, School Life and shoujo (main character is a girl).
It is one of the top anime and manga.
 The story goes like this:
                                   

Once an all boys school, Seika High School, a renowned school full of reckless and filthy students, has recently become a co-ed school. However, with the female population still remaining a minority even after the change over the recent years, Ayuzawa Misaki takes it into her own hands to reform the school and allow a chance for the girls to feel safer in the rough environment.

Training, studying and even becoming the first female student council president of the school, Misaki has gained a reputation, among the male students body as an uptight boy-hating demon dictator and as a shining hope for the teachers and fellow female students. However, despite her tough-as-nails appearance, she secretly works part-time at a maid cafe in order to support her family. Unfortunately, her secret is soon revealed when the somewhat impassive Usui Takumi, a popular boy at school, nonchalantly discovers her in a maid uniform after school.

          

Usui is one of the most popular boys at school. He's in fact an illegitimate child; his rich English mother (whose maiden name is Usui) had an affair with an unknown Japanese man. He proves to be extraordinarily talented in a number of different fields, including cooking, the violin, chess, and table etiquette.
 He regularly tells Misaki he likes her, but she dismisses his behavior simply as a joke or harassment. Usui truly cares and loves Misaki but he is waiting for the right time for them to be together and officially date each other.
One of the reasons of Usui's attraction to Misaki is that she is  always driven to do her best regardless of the endeavor, and has a strong sense of justice, though she also has a tendency to forget her own well being in the process of helping others. Misaki harbours feelings towards Usui and often blushes when he's around her but she always denies it and says that she hates Usui, but it usually means she loves him.

SOCIAL JUSTICE IN ISLAM

    

With the advent of Islam, all such ideas based on an inherent inequality lost ground. In different ways, and with great persistence Islam presented to the world the concept that, in spite of outward differences, all human beings are equal. All are entitled to equal social status and equal rights. No one is inferior or superior. Here are two references from the Qur'an and Hadith respectively.

Men, we have created you from a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes that you might get to know one another. The noblest of you in Allah's sight is the most righteous of you. Allah is wise and all knowing (49:13).

According to this verse of the Qur'an, the differences of color and race found among human beings is for the purpose, not of discrimination, but of identification. Men in essence are equal. What really distinguishes one man from another is character. His superiority can therefore bespoken of only in terms of the degree to which a man is honorable. The truly honorable man is one who is God--fearing and who recognizes and fulfils the rights of God and his fellow men.
On the occasion of the final pilgrimage, the Prophet delivered his last sermon while sitting oh his camel. One of the things he said is recorded in these words:

'O people, listen carefully, your Lord is one Lord, there is no doubt about it. Your ancestor, is one ancestor, there is no doubt about it. Listen well to my words: no Arab has any superiority over a non--Arab, and no non—Arab is superior to an Arab. No black is superior to a brown or red, and no red superior to any black. If there is any superiority in anyone it is due to his God--fearing qualities(piety). Have I conveyed the message?' the Prophet asked the people. The people answered from all corners, 'Indeed so! God be witness.' Then the Prophet said: 'Let him that is present tell it unto him that is absent.'(Al-Jamili Ahkam al-Qur'an, 16:342)

This declaration was made by the Prophet in the final year of his life at a time when the whole of Arabia had been conquered. As such, it wasnot the declaration of a reformer, but of a ruler of the time. His definition of human equality was not just listened to as a theory, but was immediately put into practice--nay, enforced in society.

In his declaration, the Prophet told the people that just as there is one Creator of this world so all the human beings in this world were born of one man and woman. All human beings were thus equal, being each other's brothers and sisters. They might differ in respect of appearance, but as to honor, status and the right to legal justice, there was no difference between them.

So far as human status is concerned, Islam clearly states that if people have been placed on different rungs of the social ladder, this is not a matter of having been favored with or deprived of social distinction but of their being under divine trial. God has created man in this world in order to test him. Worldly goods and position (or the lack of them) are used by God as instruments of this test. They are like examination papers set by the Almighty. Opulence and penury are both intended to be states in which man is tested. He should, therefore, stop suffering from inferiority or superiority complexes, and should consider instead whether he is going to pass or fail this test.
