Pembeli kain tidak senang lalu menunjuk hidung Yan Hui dan berkata: "Siapa minta pendapatmu? Kalaupun mau minta pendapat mesti minta ke Confusius. Benar atau salah Confusius yang berhak mengatakan".

Yan Hui: "Baik, jika Confusius bilang kamu salah, bagaimana?"

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.

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).

Secondly there followed fratricidal wars, and massacres and genocides became the order...
