UNVEILING THE SHADOWS WITHIN

In a sprawling metropolis, where the pursuit of materialism and superficiality reign supreme, a mysterious figure named Ethan is cast as an outcast, shrouded in rumors of malevolence. But behind his enigmatic exterior, Ethan carries a burning desire for righteousness, a longing to awaken a world blinded by mediocrity. One evening, in the heart of this materialistic society, Ethan stumbles upon a clandestine gathering of like-minded individuals. United by a shared vision of a better world, they dare to challenge the status quo. However, even within this hidden alliance, skepticism shrouds Ethan's true intentions. With newfound allies by his side, including Sarah, a passionate artist, and David, a philosopher thirsting for wisdom, Ethan embarks on a journey to unveil the hollowness of their world. They organize protests, write thought-provoking essays, and use their unique talents to challenge societal norms. Yet, opposition is fierce, and Ethan's unwavering conviction is often misunderstood as stubbornness. As their movement gains momentum, they face backlash from those who profit from the existing system. Even Ethan's own friends and family cannot understand his divergent path. Relationships strain, and Ethan finds himself isolated, carrying the weight of his mission alone. But then, during a pivotal protest, Ethan's words resonate with the crowd. His impassioned speech reveals his genuine commitment to justice, piercing through the veneer of darkness that surrounds him. The essence of humanity and truth begins to surface, transforming perceptions and kindling hope. Former adversaries start to question their values as they witness the positive changes in the city—the rekindling of hope, the blossoming of genuine connections, and the revival of dormant wisdom. They join Ethan's cause, adding their skills and perspectives to the movement. The alliance grows stronger, united by a shared vision. The city itself undergoes a profound transformation as people redefine success, seeking fulfillment beyond material wealth. Wisdom becomes a cherished possession, and genuine human connections are treasured. The essence of humanity and truth, long forgotten, resurfaces like a long-lost melody in the city's cacophonous symphony. As the city awakens to its deeper values, Ethan embarks on a path of personal redemption, confronting the shadows within him. His dark reputation fades, replaced by one of a righteous warrior fighting for a noble cause.

Puppets of Faith: Theory of Communal Strife

The sublimity of Muhammad's preaching in Mecca and the severity of his sermons in Medina make Islam a Janus-faced faith that forever bedevils the mind of the Musalmans. This thought-provoking work, besides dissecting the anatomy of Islam, steeped in the Quran, seeks to depict the psyche of the Musalmans, shaped by the proclivities of their prophet, vicissitudes of his life and the attitudes of his detractors, which the mechanism of their umma perpetuates. More to the point, aided by “I’m Ok – You’re Ok”, the path-breaking work of Thomas A. Harris and Roland E Miller’s “Muslim Friends–Their Faith and Feeling”, this book, for the first time ever, psycho-analyzes the imperatives of the Muslim upbringing, which has the potential to turn a faithful and a renegade alike into a fidayeen. Also, apart from delving into the ironies of the faiths that affected the fate of the peoples, eclipsed the cultures of communes, altered the course of history and afflict the politics of the day, this book examines how the sanãtana 'Hindu' dharma came to survive in India, in spite of the combined onslaught of Islam and the Christianity on Hinduism for over a millennium. This book is for those who wish to be aware of the follies of their faith and the foibles of others to lighten the burden of dogma and reduce the baggage of prejudice postulated in its thirty-four well-structured chapters. Also, besides providing a panoramic view of the Indian history, this thought-provoking book appraises the way Gandhi, Nehru, Patel, Azad, Ambedkar, Indira Gandhi, Narasimha Rao, Vajpayee, Manmohan Singh, Sonia Gandhi, Narendra Modi et al made or unmade the post-colonial India. Possibly in a new genre, this free ebook is a book for our times.

The Quran and Modern Science

Today, one may be a highly educated citizen of a wealthy, modern society with the internet at one’s fingertips. However, in order to begin to understand the extraordinary content within in the Quran, one must transport one’s self back hundreds of years to a time (e.g., around 610-632 CE) and place where “science” barely existed. Furthermore, Prophet Muhammad’s birthplace was in one of the most backward places of the world at that time. If you who have been fortunate enough to travel, perhaps you have even traveled to one of the rapidly disappearing places on our globe that has been relatively untouched by the modern world. If so, you might begin to have some sense of the world at an earlier time. Alternatively, perhaps you have studied the history of the world at a much earlier time. That, too, would help you to appreciate how different that time and world was. Changing your mindset to a different time and place can help you appreciate how extraordinarily it would be to find some of the Quranic material in such a place and time, especially since the Quran appears to emanate from an illiterate man. Much scientific information we take for granted these days, simply did not exist (or was incorrect) in earlier times and places. So readjust your mindset to a different time and place so that you can more fully appreciate the following… EMBROYOLOGY Context: While today people have a good understanding of reproduction, this has not always been the case. For example, do you know that the theory of “spontaneous generation” held sway for a time? The idea was that things like maggots would “spontaneously” appear on meat. Of note, Pasteur conclusively demonstrated that the theory was false by running controlled experiments during the 19th century CE. How about the theory of “preformationism?”1 The general idea was that, for example, a human was fully preformed as a “homunculus” i.e. a miniature human. Then this miniature human simply grew with time into an adult. The idea gained much strength under people like Nicolaas Hartsoeker in 1694 CE (before eventually being replaced by competing idea of epigenesis2’ due to Ritter von Baer’s discovery of the mammalian ovum (egg) in 1827 CE. and also due to the Hans Driesch experiments of the late 19th century CE. Sure a lot of this stuff sounds absurd, but the point is that things that are obvious to us now may not necessarily always have been. It helps to understand that, in order to more fully appreciate this section. Ok,on to embryology. Here are some Quranic verses and their commentaries that deal with human embryology. “Sulalah”
