Islam is a great religion that teaches an individual how to live their life. There are new followers of this religion every single day. However, Islam is losing its true meaning in the minds of many people. People go around calling themselves Muslims, but they do things that totally go against Islam. The Islamic values are deteriorating because people have become so disillusioned by Western ideas. There are so many things exposed on television, songs, and through life experiences that it becomes difficult for a person to discern between right or wrong. Individuals in Muslim countries and even in the West are exposed to so much that it is hard for the Muslim to actually live their life according to the teachings of Islam.

Egyptians have been living in a revolution against injustice and tyranny since January 25 2011, when the youth started a revolution and forced President Hosni Mubarak to step down.

In Islam, Sharia and almsgiving are the actions recommended by the Koran. So no Muslim can pass these laws to live his life. Islam is the belief, so it really should not play with if they really want to succeed in life and be like all other Muslims living under the Koran say.

The concept is the same, is to make amends to God (Allah) after sin, or purge the trouble to win the kingdom of God. This is what awaits all

I have been a traveller for almost three ears now, and my favorite destination is the mountainous region of Lanao del Norte in Mindanao where natives are living mixed with Muslim races. One thing that fascinates me the most in those areas is not the beautiful views and good environments, in which anions are abundant and fresh mineral waters are everywhere, but the delicious dishes and delicacies of Muslim people. Yes! Muslims are good chefs with spicy twist in every recipe. So yummy! So, let's forget about the war and conflicts for a while and taste the common dishes of Muslims in Mindanao.

She is one of the survivors and there are not many like her who have been able to live through such vicious attacks.
