[www.keralites.net] ISLAMIC MANNERS-25

 

ISLAMIC MANNERS-25

Be a Good Host/ Visitor

When visiting the homes of family members, relatives, friends or others we must never be a burden upon them.

Visiting unannounced, at awkward times, sitting too long, asking too many questions, speaking too loudly, allowing our children to run a mock if they are with us etc is all unethical.

We should also be considerate of those we visit by not allowing them to prepare snacks or meals for us when they are busy, sickly or in a rush to go somewhere.

On the other hand when people visit us although we should honour them, we do not have to prepare sophisticated meals & fries etc all the time. A simple snack or glass of water would also suffice.

Whether more or less, whatever is served must be from the depth of our hearts.

Mufti Ismail Menk

[www.keralites.net] Points to ponder: As received from a fellow (senior) citizen !

 

           Sixty plus and Going Strong.
 
(Translated from the original in Chinese)

There are 1000-year old trees in the mountain, but not many 100
year-old people…………….At the most, you live until 100 years old (only 1
in 100,000).

If you live until 90, you only have 10 years……..If you live until 80,
you only have 20 years.


Because you don't have many years to live, and you can't take along
things when you go, you don't have to be too thrifty…….Spend the money that should be spent, enjoy what should be enjoyed, donate what you
are able to donate, but don't leave all to your children or grandchildren, for you don't want them to become parasites.

Don't worry about what will happen after you are gone, because when you return to dust, you will feel nothing about praises or criticisms.
Don't worry too much about your children for children will have their
own destiny and find their own way. Don't be your childrens' slave

Don't expect too much from your children. Caring children, though caring,would be too busy with their jobs and commitments to render any help. Uncaring children may fight over your assets even when you are still alive, and wish for your early demise so they can inherit your
properties. Your children take for granted that they are rightful heirs to your wealth; but you have no claims to their money. 60-year olds like you, don't trade in your health for wealth
anymore;………….Because your money may not be able to buy your
health………When to stop making money, and how much is enough (hundred thousands, million, ten million)?

Out of thousand hectares of good farm land, you can only consume three quarts (of rice) daily; out of a thousand of mansions, you only need
eight square meters of space to rest at night.
So as long as you have enough food and enough money to spend, that is
good enough. So you should live happily. Every family has its own problems. Just do not compare with others for fame and social status and see whose children are doing better, etc. but challenge others for happiness, health and longevity………….Don't worry about things that you can't change
because it doesn't help and it may
spoil your health.


You have to create your own well-being and find your own happiness;
As long as you are in good mood, think about happy things, do happy
things daily and have fun in doing, then you will pass your time
happily every day.

One day passes, you will lose one day;…One day passes with happiness, and then you gain one day.
In good spirit, sickness will cure; in happy spirit, sickness will
cure fast; in good and happy spirit; sickness will never come.

With good mood, suitable amount of exercise, always in the sun,
variety of foods, reasonable amount of vitamin and mineral intake,
hopefully you will live another 20 or 30 years of healthy life.


Above all learn to cherish the goodness around ……and FRIENDS… …..they all make you feel young and "wanted"…without them you are surely to feel lost!!
Wishing you all the best.


Please share this with all your friends who are 60 plus and those who will be 60 plus after some time.
 
 


 
HAPPY RETIRED / SENIOR CITIZEN LIFE

[www.keralites.net] BREATHTAKING PICS. OF FULL MOON ON OLYMPIC RINGS ...

 

Fun & Info @ Keralites.net(Reuters)
A full moon made for a beautiful sixth Olympic ring on Friday night, when a Reuters photographer snapped a breathtaking picture of the moon positioned between a large set of Olympic rings hanging from the top of London's Tower Bridge.
The shots were an instant hit on Twitter, with fans retweeting them thousands of times within an hour of posting.
 
Photographer Luke MacGregor also snapped photos with the moon positioned between one of the rings and hovering above and below the famed London span.

The pictures provided an opportunity to crack a few jokes about the IOC and its stringent policies that prohibit illicit use of the rings. In this case, the moon should be expecting a cease and desist letter from the IOC for infringing upon its trademark. Neil Armstrong will also be named in the suit.
