My 4th grader casually mentioned to me today, that the “EPIC” reading app, the public schools all over the US have under their curriculum, have a book on Narender Modi by the same title!
I was baffled as to why little elementary school level American kids are reading a book on a mass murderer & a dictator of heinous crimes...I read till chapter 5 to verify it’s contents. The book claims that NM just didn’t go to the university for his bachelors but also Master’s.
Even after being accused of “super spreaders”, the #TabligiHeroes who attended the tabligh and who managed to recover are helping treat coronavirus patients in India by donating their plasma.

Its common belief among the BJP RSS supporters about Arabs that Arabs are barbaric & had it not been oil they would have been savages. A common misconception is that Arab women don't get enough freedom and they are oppressed inside their homes which is untrue. #BjpRssInsultArabs
Do you know that the Bengal famine of 1943 in which 3 million people perished wasn't because of lack of food but because of the inequalities built into the mechanisms for distributing food?
Particular groups of people including rural landless laborers and urban service providers like haircutters did not have the monetary means to acquire food as its price rose rapidly due to panic buying and hoarding.
Presently, there are cases of people buying sanitizers in dozens. You might also be wasting a lot of water in washing your hands. I am not saying, don't wash them but use the water judiciously. It's not only for you.
Let us understand the Grammar behind the word “JazakAllah”
Jazaak comes from the root word jazaa' (جزاء) which according to the popular Arabic-English dictionary, Al-Mawrid, has two meanings that are completely opposite to each other.
Thus jazaa' (جزاء) can either mean reward OR punishment.
So “JazakAllah" may either mean "may Allah reward you" or "may Allah punish you",
while “JazakAllah Khair” means "may Allah reward you with the Best / Good"
So the correct way is to say Jazakallah khair & not just JazakAllah.
Though someone might say that the intention by saying JazakAllah is the same like JazakAllahu khayran, if it's so, then why not use the complete wordings as used by Prophet(SAW)
