Seperti biasa Michael, kepala cabang di sebuah perusahaan swasta terkemuka di Jakarta, tiba di rumahnya pada pukul 9 malam. Tidak seperti biasanya, Elvin, putra pertamanya yang baru duduk di kelas dua SD yang membukakan pintu. Ia nampaknya sudah menunggu cukup lama.

“Kok, belum tidur?” sapa Michael sambil mencium anaknya.

Biasanya, Elvin memang sudah lelap ketika ia pulang dan baru terjaga ketika ia akan berangkat ke kantor pagi hari.

Sambil membuntuti sang Papa menuju ruang keluarga, Elvin menjawab, “Aku nunggu Papa pulang. Sebab aku mau tanya berapa sih gaji Papa?”

“Lho, tumben, kok nanya gaji Papa? Mau minta uang lagi, ya?”

“Ah, enggak. Pengen tahu aja.”

“Oke. Kamu boleh hitung sendiri. Setiap hari Papa bekerja sekitar 10 jam dan dibayar Rp 400.000,-. Dan setiap bulan rata-rata dihitung 25 hari kerja, Jadi, gaji Papa dalam satu bulan berapa, hayo?”

Elvin berlari mengambil kertas dan pensilnya dari meja belajar, sementara Papanya melepas sepatu dan menyalakan televisi. Ketika Michael beranjak menuju kamar untuk berganti pakaian, Elvin berlari mengikutinya.

Islamic Swimwear For The Active Muslimah

by Gabriel Perez All these year's Muslim females have faced the issue of finding a suitable swimwear which adheres to the Koran, which needs a lady to cover everything except her hands, face and feet. The swimwear available in the market were either not targeted for the Muslim women as they led to show of skin or were theoretical for swimming.

People of The Book & The Muslims

by Harun Yahya Islam is a religion of peace, love and tolerance. Today, however, some circles have been presenting a false image of Islam, as if there were conflict between Islam and the adherents of the two other monotheistic religions. Yet Islam's view of Jews and Christians, who are named "the People of the Book" in the Koran, is very friendly and tolerant.

The Prophet of Islam - His Biography

by Muhammad Hamidullah IN the annals of men, individuals have not been lacking who conspicuously devoted their lives to the socio-religious reform of their connected peoples. We find them in every epoch and in all lands. In India, there lived those who transmitted to the world the Vedas, and there was also the great Gautama Buddha; China had its Confucius; the Avesta was produced in Iran. Babylonia gave to the world one of the greatest reformers, the Prophet Abraham (not to speak of such of his ancestors as Enoch and Noah about whom we have very scanty information). The Jewish people may rightly be proud of a long series of reformers: Moses, Samuel, David, Solomon, and Jesus among others. 2. Two points are to note: Firstly these reformers claimed in general to be the bearers each of a Divine mission, and they left behind them sacred books incorporating codes of life for the guidance of their peoples. Secondly there followed fratricidal wars, and massacres and genocides became the order...
