-Titulo Original : The Meaning Of Surah Al-Araf (The Heights Border Between Hell & Paradise) From Noble Quran Bilingual Edition Hardcover-Fabricante : Blurb-Descripcion Original: Surah al-Araf (The Heights Border Between Hell & Paradise) is the seventh surah of the Quran, with 206 verses. It is a Meccan sura. Its final verse, verse 206, requires a sajdah, or prostration. Al-Araf is one of the most detailing Surah about the origins of creation and revealing prophecies about the judgment day, it starts by telling us how Satan made our ancestors Adam and Eve to leave heaven and all of the three came down to earth and from that point Satan became the number one enemy for humanity, and how he refused to obey God and asked him to keep him alive to show him the vulnerability of this new creature the Human being, the Surah then starts by telling us how Satan misled thousands of populations over time and gives us examples of some prophets who suffered in order to gain their lost companions to the right path. Then the Surah says that every community or people that will come on earth will think that they are better than those before and thus better the examples cited above, but in fact those who will not believe in God, or got misled by Satan from the right path will have the same punishment, Hell, and people have to pay attention because Satan and his people can see you but you cant. It also reveals that prophecies about the coming of Prophet Muhammad SAW were present in the Jewish law and Gospel.7:15...

-Titulo Original : La Petite Josette En Provence-Fabricante : Blurb-Descripcion Original: FINALIST in the 2018 Wishing Shelf Book Awards SEMI-FINALIST in the 2018 Little Peeps Book Awards for Early Readers 5 Star Readers Favorite Award Childrens book bilingual English and French. Have an adventure in Provence while learning French! La Petite Josette loves adventures and history and she is super excited for her trip to one of the most beautiful villages in Provence, France. What will she find? A castle, knights, perhaps a treasure to take home? Theres so much to do before the trip, but with the help of her big sister, theyll be on their way in no time. Come join La Petite Josette, her sister Anne-Laure, and their parents while they have a picnic lunch of delicious, French food, go inside a medieval toy store, and explore the village. Are you ready? Vous etes prets? Parents and grandparents of young children will find the sweetness and gentleness of the illustrations (beautifully hand-drawn and water colored by the authors daughter), and the simple story line, will help to introduce their little ones to the French language. The short words and phrases in French will engage young readers, ages 6-11, and help to pique their interest in learning a new language or reinforce a language they already have some knowledge in. Children will also be introduced to one of the most beautiful and historical places in France. One does not have to know French in order to read it as the book is written mostly in English with French phrases throughout. French speakers looking to improve their English skills would also enjoy the book. About the Author Born and raised in Southern California, Ashley and her husband, Michael, fell in love with France shortly after arriving in Provence with their four, young children in 2003. While Ashley was participating in her universitys study abroad program in Aix-en-Provence, Michael enrolled the kids into French public school and additional language-learning classes. The children quickly made friends and learned the language at lightning speed, but it took a lot more time for Ashley and Michaels mastery of the language to take off. In between schoolwork and classes, what better way was there to practice those new-found language skills? Adventures, bien sur! Thanks to their little, white station wagon named François, and PB&J croissants (say what??!!), weekend and holiday road trips allowed the family to immerse themselves into the French culture while taking in the magnificent sights of the Provençal countryside. And voila......just like that, a love of all things French was born.Upon the familys return to the USA, Ashley completed her B.A. degrees in French Culture Studies and Business at California State University-San Bernardino. She loves traveling, hiking, photography and reading. Since 2010 Ashley has lived in Provence, France with her husband and their youngest daughter...

-Titulo Original : The Pink Fairy Book (Esprios Classics)-Fabricante : Blurb-Descripcion Original: Peter Victor is here, but not here. He has an address in Ellsworth, Maine, but doesnt spiritually live there. Everything he does, and/or does not do; everything he beholds or holds is judged from the perspective of a rusted rolling steel deck in the middle of the North Atlantic. He, Peter Victor, is a Thinker, a Poet and a Photographer. He was a deep sea Merchant Mariner for fifteen years. He often still dreams of the ocean. Of course they are not only dreams. His poetry speaks of factual events, and mystical experiences. Each, in his eyes, are equally real and/or unreal. His photography reflects pristine landscapes and arresting portraits. He is self-taught, and his strongest photographic asset is something that cant be taught: his eye. He sees things that are invisible to the rest of the world. Even the subjects of his portraits when looking at one of his photos often find themselves saying, I cant believe that is me! Mostly nowadays he is a Father. It is being a Father that he believes is and was what he did and does best. He was and is an extraordinary Father. To two incredibly gifted, talented and beautiful boys. At 65 with a used and abused body he knows he is in the twilight of life. One of course can clearly see the sun as it moves through the sky during the course of the day. The sunrise is beautiful.
