History

The Empty Swing
It was a quiet evening in a small village. The sun was setting slowly, casting an orange glow over the fields. The air was filled with the sweet smell of the earth. Children played in the distance, their laughter echoing through the trees.

Why Allah Created the World. A Story for the People of the USA.
In the beginning, there was nothing but Allah the Eternal, the Creator, the One without beginning or end. He was alone, yet complete. He needed no help, no partner, and no rest. From His divine wisdom and mercy, He created the universe not out of boredom or need, but as a sign for us, the human beings, to know Him, love Him, and worship Him.

Hex and Heritage:
When Lifetime’s Amish Witches: The True Story of Holmes County aired, audiences were lured by the promise of horror set in one of America’s most reclusive religious communities. Beneath the dramatized supernatural thrills lies a deeper truth — that folklore, magic, and spiritual resistance are not foreign to the Amish or their cultural cousins. The practice of Braucherei (also called Brauchau, or “Powwow”) among Pennsylvania Dutch Christians, often likened to folk healing or faith-based magic, has uncanny parallels with Brujería (Spanish/Latinx witchcraft) and Bruxaria (Portuguese/Brazilian witchcraft). These practices, though rooted in different ethnic traditions, share similar functions: healing, protection, justice, and spiritual intercession in communities where official religious institutions may offer little support for such needs.

Art in the Age of Algorithms: How Technology is Redefining Creativity (And Why Your Phone Might Be Your Next Canvas)
It’s 11:30 PM, and I’m standing in front of a glowing canvas at a tiny gallery in Berlin. The piece, titled Echoes of a Digital Dawn, isn’t painted with oils or watercolors—it’s a swirling tapestry of AI-generated patterns, layered with hand-drawn brushstrokes by the artist, Lila. Her hands, still dusted with charcoal, hover over her tablet as she explains, “I used to spend hours mixing paints. Now, I collaborate with algorithms. It’s like having a dialogue with a new kind of muse.”

Pikey Peak Trek: Where Sunrise Steals Your Breath
Let’s be real: any trek described as "easy" in Nepal is a Himalayan prank. Pikey Peak—a "gentle" hill promising Everest views without the death march—turned out to be the universe’s way of reminding me that "moderate" means "your quads will file a restraining order."

A Friend in Need. AI-Generated.
In a peaceful village nestled between rolling hills, Lila was walking home one chilly evening when she heard a faint whimper. Curiosity led her to a rusty bench, where she found a shivering puppy hiding beneath it. Its fur was matted with mud, its tiny body trembling, and its eyes filled with fear and exhaustion. Without a second thought, Lila knelt down, wrapped the frail creature in her soft scarf, and carried it home. Her heart swelled with compassion as she gently bathed the puppy in warm water, carefully washing away the dirt. She prepared a small bowl of milk and soft bread, watching as the puppy ate hungrily, its tail wagging weakly at first.
