Benefiting from Islamic Lectures 從伊斯蘭知識得到的益處

“To benefit from a Deeni talk you must have two qualities:
要從伊斯蘭知識中得到益處必須必備兩種重要的品格

1) Talab: come and listen to the talk with a yearning and desire to gain from it.
達拉巴 : 參與和領聽而且從中渴望得到這個知識

2) Ihtiyaaj: consider yourself to be in need of what the speaker is saying.
伊合迪亞茲 : 把自己當作需要得到演講者所提及的被忠告者

Just participating and listening to talks, without these two points in mind, does not bring change into people’s lives. The disbelievers of Makkah had the opportunity to listen to many speeches of our beloved Prophet sallallaahu alayhi wasallam, but because they did not have the right intentions and attitude, his blessed words had no effect on their lives.”

只有參與和領聽, 但並沒有這兩種重要的品格兼併的話,
這將不會影響和改變一個人的生活
在麥加的不信者他們曾有很多機會接近我們敬愛的穆罕莫德聖人(求主賜福於他)
和直接得到他(聖人)的教導, 由於他們缺乏正確的意圖和態度 ,
聖人(求主賜福於他)的智慧名言也不能影響和改變他們的生活和命運

The origins of the names of the days

The names of the days are in some cases derived from Teutonic deities or, such as in Romance languages, from Roman deities. The early Romans, around the first century, used Saturday as the first day of the week. As the worshipping of the Sun increased, the Sun's day (Sunday) advanced from position of the second day to the first day of the week (and saturday became the seventh day).
「天」的名字，來自日耳曼神明或羅馬神明。早期羅馬人，大約一世紀左右，將星期六視為一星期的第一天。隨著對於太陽的崇拜增加，太陽的日子（星期天）從第二天的位置變成第一天。原本的Saturday變成第七天！
