The show was on air from Norway and was hosted by a woman named Veronica.

Islam, sejak awal kemunculannya di abad ke-7 Masehi, sebenarnya telah menjawab berbagai permasalahan di tiap aspek kehidupan, termasuk permasalahan yang diangkat oleh kaum feminis, yaitu kesetaraan gender.

Pakistan is facing some serious and critical situations from the last decade due to terrorism. Before now, only Karachi was considered problematic because of some target killings between two groups. But since the United States war in Afghanistan, the situation has worsened in Pakistan. There is no place that should be considered safe throughout the country. This is considered to be the result of America against the Taliban's. There are different groups of Taliban within Afghanistan and Pakistan and most of them are against the terrorism in Pakistan. They have also negotiated peace in the area.

On March 20, 2011, Egyptians overwhelmingly passed a package of constitutional amendments of which the most important was the drafting of a new Constitution by a new Parliament. The vote followed a Constitutional declaration made by the transitional government headed by the Egyptian military under a body called SCAF i.e. the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces. The submission of constitutional amendments to popular referendums is not unusual in Egypt but it was the feeling that these were perhaps the first ever free and fair elections since 1956 that elicited an overwhelming participation by the Egyptian public.

America's Central Intelligence Agency has adopted an innovative strategy to counter the effective guerilla warfare tactics being used by militants in Northwest Pakistan. While these drone attacks have been the source of much criticism and appreciation, few have explored whether this means of combat is actually permitted under international law. A number of questions arise as a result of such an inquiry. Does the drone strikes carried about by the CIA violate Pakistan's sovereignty? Does the CIA have privilege to carry out such attacks? Is the use of force on non-combatants permitted under international law?

A tragic massacre occurred in Norway recently, the reason was the fear of Islam prevailing in the minds of the people. Islam is being considered a ruthless and violent religion and is thought to be dangerous for other communities who don't care for the fundamentals of Islam. The massacre happened in Oslo and nearby Utøya, and took the lives of at least 92 innocent people. Anders Behring Breivik (32) made his confession statement for the deadly massacre which he had deliberately planned in Oslo and Utøya. Anders Behring Breivik published a manuscript over the internet where he shed light upon the significant points regarding the killing of the innocent people. Anders Behring Breivik confessed that it took him nine long years to plan the deadly act, the act included the bombing and brutal killing of at least 92 innocents in Oslo and nearby Utøya. Anders Behring Breivik, Christian by belief, launched a 1500 page manuscript in which he explained all of the detailsof his act and the reasons why he did it.

Islam is one of the largest religions of the world. It believes in one God "Allah", the life after death, resurrection and the Prophet Muhammad as the last Prophet. The teachings of Islam had been revealed to various Prophets starting with Adams, but it was made perfect and complete over Prophet Muhammad through the revelation of the Holy Quran. Islam is a peaceful universal religion as it preaches the message of peace and brotherhood. However, unfortunately, today Islam is known as the religion of terrorism around the western world, especially in USA and Europe. The question that should be posed, here, is who is to blame for portraying such a bad image of the religion Islam? There is no doubt that Al-Qaeda and Taliban; these so-called Muslims are among the main reasons behind smearing the reputation of Islam. They are settled in the area of Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan. These terrorists kill many innocent people every day. They launch many suicidal attacks in the name of Jihad, killing thousands of innocent people.

الجولة الثانية كانت نتائج الجولة الأولى مخيبة لآمال القوى الثورية، فلم يدخل الإعادة أي من المرشحين المحسوبين على الثورة، بل كانت الإعادة بين ممثل النظام القديم أحمد شفيق، وبين ممثل القوى المحافظة التي تحالفت مع المجلس العسكري بعد الإطاحة بمبارك. كما كان صعود شفيق للجولة الثانية مربكاً للقوى الثورية نظراً لقوة ارتباطه بالنظام القديم، ولما يكنه من عداء للثورة ظهر في تصريحات متكررة له. فهو رجل شديد القرب من مبارك وعائلته على المستوى الشخصي، كما كان رئيساً للوزراء أثناء الثورة، وتمت الإطاحة به بعد ضغوط عديدة ومتواصلة. محمد مرسي بالطبع كانت فرصة مرسي أفضل في مواجهة مرشح الفلول من أي مرشح آخر ، فبعض القوى الثورية قاطعت وبعضها أجبر على دعم مرسي هرباً من شفيق، وظهرت دعوات لاستبعاد شفيق بتطبيق قانون العزل السياسي. ثم أطلقت مبادرة لتشكيل مجلس رئاسي مدني لمواجهة العسكر، لكن مرسي رفضها حرصاً على فرص الجماعة في السلطة. وفي المقابل أطلق تعهدات بتكوين فريق رئاسي مساعد له في حالة فوزه يمثل أطياف المجتمع. بالإضافة إلى تعهده بالإفراج عن المعتقلين و المحاكمين عسكرياً، وإعادة محاكمة رموز النظام وقتلة الشهداء. أعلن ذلك لتدعيم موقف الجماعة في مواجهة العسكر بعد أن ظهرت مؤشرات لصعود أسهم شفيق وإمكا

When a senior Iraqi official traveled to Iran in 2007, he finally found out who was handling Iran's policy of relations with the west. Shockingly, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad wasn't the one handing these relations, but actually it was the paramilitary Quds force head named Qassim Sulaimani. He stated that he holds "sole authority for Iranian actions in Iraq," saying that whatever policy was taking place in Iraq was handled by him. With the promotion last year, Qassim Sulaimani holds the highest rank in the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps. He is the brain behind several policies, among them the Iranian influence towards Iraq and providing military security to President Bashar al-Assad of Syria. Qassim Sulaimani's role has created a series of conflicts with the U.S. Qassim Sulaimani tried to kill the Saudi ambassador to the United States, and he is now on a list of considerable threats.

Islam is an all-embracing way of life. It shows us how to conduct all human activities in a sound and wholesome manner. It does not allow a hierarchy of priests or intermediaries between Allah and human beings, no far-fetched abstractions and no complicated rites and rituals. Everybody can readily understand the Quran and follow in the footsteps of the Prophet, to the best of his or her ability, assured by Allah that He will accept the deeds that each soul has the ability to offer. "On no soul does Allah place a burden greater than it can bear." [Quran 2:286] When we read the Quran or the prophetic traditions, we find instructions regarding all aspects of life: political, social, economical, material, ethical, national and international. These instructions provide us with all the details needed to perform a certain act.

Hijab is one of the most crucial Muslim cultural beliefs. Muslim women can be Hijab-less to non Mahram people for example, Muslim women do not have to cover their head and thus can show their hair to their fathers, husbands, sons, fathers and other men who are specifically allowed as "mahram" (legal). There are many fashionable Hijab now in the world. The girls look so modest and beautiful in Hijab. Hijabs are now so fashionable that many girls who are very fashion concern and smart they are now wearing Hijab. Hijab is not now considered as the criteria of ugliness even by the fashion specialists. Muslim culture, however, has showed what way woman can be modest. There are certain dress codes for the woman in Islam. If they follow the dress code, the young people will not be misguided. There are certain amazing modest dresses popular with Muslim ladies. Jibab is a very popular dress for the woman. This is very fashionable as well as modest. Muslim woman like this wonderful dress very much as wearing this they look more beautiful and modest as well. Young boys don't stare greedily at the girls wearing Jilbab not because she looks ugly rather they become bound to respect that girls for her modest dress. She doesn't look sexy in that dress rather looks civilized and disciplined.

There have past great Muslims who have been the jewel of knowledge and a cause of great pride for the Muslim community. They have made great achievements to get their names and that of their religion in the list of people who have had their considerable part and portion in the total research and development of entire world. Some Muslims have made their name in war while others in peace. It is altogether correct to say that Muslims have been contributing in making the technologies of world which we see today. Muslims have contributed largely in medical field by the invention of several surgical equipments and methods. Apart from medicine, Muslims have contributed largely in the fields of physics and chemistry with the invention of equipments and certain chemical compounds which are in industrial use now a day giving billions to industries worldwide. The Pioneer Muslim about which you will be told is the great Abu Rehan Muhammad Ibn Ahmad Al Beruni. Al Beruni was a great polymath scholar who lived in the 10th and 11th century. His name is still taken as the one of the greatest scientist who ever lived and walked the ground because he was specialized in not one and two but four fields related to mathematics all of whom are separate fields of knowledge and research. Mathematics, the study of numbers and calculations through different formulae was mastered by this great Pioneer Muslim and physics the study of matter and energy was his specialty. The great Muslim achiever was able to form theories and then hypothetically present them and then prove them to the world about astronomy and natural sciences.

Unfortunately, you would not be able to deny that whenever a man is spotted with a long beard and a cap on his head the first thing that comes to everyone's mind is that he is a "terrorist". Even more lamentable is that such thoughts are not only common amongst non-Muslims but Muslims as well. Even in Muslim countries if a man decides to keep a beard and wear a cap, his life will immediately be made hell by all of his peers. They would taunt him, jeer him, call him a terrorist, point him out in various gatherings as well as in photographs as a molvi, terrorist, and what not. None of those people would ever realize how much pain it inflicts on that person. As they say, any injury can be healed but not that is inflicted by the tongue. The Prophet Muhammad sallallaho alaihi WA aalihi WA sallam also said: " a Muslim is he from whose hands and tongue other Muslims are safe". So how can those so-called friends and peers of that person ever claim to be Muslims. Who said that only terrorists were brain washed. No! It is such people that brain wash that person. While applying for a job, his backward an 'uncool' looks would hinder his way no matter how competent he might be. Those with lesser talent but better looks will be preferred over him. Similarly, at the time of marriage, girls will look down upon him. He will be rejected as he has that ugly beard and he may belong to a terrorist group.

Before Islam, women had no identity and no individuality among the people. She was believed like something to be used and trashed afterward. Children or even slaves had better position than women. She did not have any human rights at all. Various cultures still consider a woman as a less than ordinary person and do not give her diverse essential rights what men own. In many parts, women extremely dislike this discrimination. They have decided to struggle for getting equality for themselves which regrettably yet get them away from their basic rights. Islam is the first religion who greatly respects women and acknowledges their equality with men in several aspects. With Islam, women have a position never acknowledged before. The Holy Quran has many teachings for men and women in a similar way. Islam indisputably propagates the ethical, religious and financial equality of men and women. When it comes to the divine rule of the relationship between a man and woman, Islam has given a place of dignity and respect to woman. The rules are vital for harmony, soothe, pleasure, persistence of the varieties and development. The Holy Quran highlights that ALLAH has made all creatures in couples, and so men and women have been made of the identical creatures. As it is mentioned in the Holy Quran: "He made you from an only being; then of the similar kind made its companion." (39:7) "He has made for you companions of your same kind." (42:12) Women have equal rights and responsibilities in regard of education as Prophet Muhammad PBUH said: "It is mandatory all Muslims to seek knowledge."
