Excess sugar intake: The body's silent poison
Excess sugar intake: The silent poison of the body Most of the tea, coffee, sweets or soft drinks we drink every day contain an invisible danger - sugar. Just as sugar is a symbol of taste in our lives, it silently sows the seeds of various diseases inside the body. This process is so slow and subtle that we do not realize it until some major problem in the body becomes apparent. Excess sugar intake has now become a global problem, which is considered the main source of fatal diseases like diabetes, obesity, heart disease and even cancer.

The rise and political transformation of the Umayyad Caliphate
The Rise of the Umayyad Caliphate and Political Transformation: The Beginning of a New Chapter in the History of Islam After the 30-year era of good governance of the Caliphate Rashidah ended, the political history of Islam entered a new turn, which is known in history as the era of the Umayyad Caliphate. This era began in 661 AD after the martyrdom of Hazrat Ali (RA), when Muawiyah ibn Abu Sufyan seized power in the Muslim state and declared the city of Damascus in Syria as the new capital of the Islamic Caliphate. The rule of the Umayyad dynasty lasted for about 90 years (661-750 AD). During this period, both the geographical boundaries and the political structure of Islam changed dramatically.

Balfour Declaration
Balfour Declaration: The Birth of the Palestine Crisis There are some declarations in history that, although limited to a few short sentences on paper, have had an impact that has lasted for generations, shedding blood, displacing people and bringing unrest instead of stability to the entire region. The “Balfour Declaration” of 1917 is just such an event, which is a deep wound not only for Palestine, but for the entire Muslim world. This declaration laid the foundation for the creation of the State of Israel in the Middle East and began the miserable history of the Palestinian people.

The courage of the silent companion
On a cool evening north of Medina, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was sitting with a small caravan. Abu Bakr, Umar, Ali and a few other companions were with him. Suddenly, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, “Today I will tell you about a man who gave up everything in life to come to the path of Allah, and who secretly embraced Islam and openly conveyed the message of truth—he is Abu Jarr al-Ghifari.”

This drink is 'healthy'
We will dedicate this discussion to a unique verse of the Quran that establishes a profound dialogue between humanity and the natural world. This verse is found in Surah An-Nahl (16:68-69), where it is said: “And your Lord commanded the bee: ‘Make nests in the mountains and trees and in the lofty places that man has made. Then eat of all fruits and follow the paths of your Lord. From their bellies comes a drink, in which is healing for mankind. Indeed, in this are signs for a people who reflect.”

The mask of civilization
The pride of England, the heritage of the United Kingdom, the light of the British Empire—these words bring to mind a long chapter in world history, where it is said how the British brought civilization to dark countries. But no one has kept track of how much barbarity, how much bloodshed, how much ethnic cleansing was carried out in the name of bringing this ‘civilization’. Even today, Britain gives opinions on various countries in the name of human rights, democracy, and civilization, intervenes, and sometimes condemns them—but its own history has always been one of cruelty, deceit, exploitation, and a constant attempt to destroy immature nations.

The history of Dalit oppression and the reality of the Dalit movement in modern India.
A horrific yet long-neglected chapter in Indian history is the brutal and continuous oppression of Dalits. The word ‘Dalit’ means to suppress, crush, and crush. And within this word lies a cruel reality of history, where millions of people have been victims of social oppression for centuries simply because of their birth. In Hinduism, Dalits were known as ‘untouchables’. This untouchability was not limited to religious rules, but was a terrible social system that did not even consider people as human beings.

“Isn’t Islam’s command to wage war against non-Muslims terrorism?”
This is a widely discussed accusation by atheists and non-Muslims, where it is said that Islam is a violent religion; its Quran and Hadith command war against non-Muslims, it is said to kill infidels, and Muslims take up arms in the name of jihad. This accusation arises from ignorance on the one hand, and on the other hand it is also spread through Islamophobic propaganda. But the reality is that Islam has never allowed followers of any religion or belief to attack or kill just for their beliefs. Rather, Islam has defined war and peace as a complete way of life based on a balance of self-defense, humanity and justice.
