Florida Muslim Not Representative of Muslim Values - Neighbor Newspapers

Florida Muslim Not Representative of Muslim Values - Neighbor Newspapers

Sami Osmakac, a Muslim from Kosovo, wanted to hurt the army, but he realized it was out of his league. He investigated bombing three cars from a remote location, but what is the most disturbing is that he wanted to “take out the bridges to neighboring Pinellas County.”

Where did he live? In Pinellas County! He thought he would “crush the economy.” Clearly his intentions were serious, since he paid $500 down in order to buy weapons.

Fortunately, the Muslims in his community prevented Mr. Osmakac from carrying out his plan. It appears that moderate Muslims are taking a stand! They informed the authorities who contacted Mr. Osmakac using undercover police.

The Quran says: “Serve Allah, and join not any partners with Him; and do good- to parents, kinsfolk, orphans, those in need, neighbors who are near, neighbors who are strangers, the companion by your side, the wayfarer (ye meet), and what your right hands possess: For Allah loveth not the arrogant, the vainglorious.” (33:60)The list of opportunities to do good appears endless for a sincere Muslim.

Consequently, the Quran makes it abundantly clear that Mr. Osmakac is not following the Quranic teaching to take care of his neighbors “who are strangers.” The Quran does not specify whether they are kuffar or not. Since he lives in Florida, there must be many “wayfarers” and he is obligated to look after them–not blow them to smithereens!

While it may be stressful being a Muslim in America, it can never give Mr. Osmakac the right to take lives.

He did not choose to follow the teachings of the Quran, so let it not be said that the Quran inspired him to hatch his plots of violence.

It is truly sad that he chose to be “vainglorious” instead.

Homeopathic Skin Cures

Rhus Tox 30 is a good general tonic for skin. We use rhus toxin for achy muscles. If you are buying a small family medicine kit, this should be one of your top three ingredients. When my children complain of leg aches at bed time, I get Rhus Tox. If they fall down, I get the Rhus Tox. If they are overtired, but can't sleep, I get Rhus Tox.

If you have difficulty getting rid of boils, Hepar Sulph 200x every other day is very efficient in hardening the pus so that it can be removed.

Pulsatilla 30x is a lovely skin tonic. It makes your skin look fresh. This medicine has a side effect that makes you feel happy, so you get two remedies for the price of one. As I get older, I sometimes feel my skin looks dry and aged, but when I take Pulsatilla, I notice that my skin looks younger because it gives it that flushed look of youth.

Silicea is an interesting healing medicine, not to be used by anyone with an artificial mechanism. If you take Silicea 30 every day (3x), it will remove a foreign object from the body. It can help remove splinters or glass that may be embedded. I have noticed that it can also eject the center of warts. But please do not use this medicine if you have a pace maker or artificial part because it will make that "foreign object" come out.

Ferrum Phos is for general healing, so if you are having any difficulty healing your skin, this homeopathic medicine may assist in healing your skin troubles. In addition, Kali Mur is used to rid the skin of white pus, Natrum Phos helps rid the skin of yellow pus and Natrum Sulph rids the body of green pus.

Nux Vomica is a homeopathic medicine that gives you the best night's sleep. It relieves the mind of worries, relieves the stomach of distention, relieves an allergic reaction to medicine and even relieves distress after eating bad food. This is another one of those top three medicines that everyone should have in the house. Once I had food poisoning, but I thought I had to wait to take the next dose. My husband told me that if I feel really bad, I can take it every five minutes with a dose of Nux 30. I only wished he'd told me earlier! But even that advice helped speed up the healing and recovery by hours.

I hope that this information is helpful to you. It has all been tested repeatedly and found efficacious.
