Cristiano Ronaldo Urges Support for Rohingya Children

MADRID – Real Madrid superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has called on the world to help Rohingya children living in refugee camps after fleeing death at the hands of Burmese forces late last year.

In a Twitter post, the four-time Champions League winner published two pictures: one showing him surrounded by his four children, and the second depicting a barefoot refugee holding an infant.

“One world where we all love our children. Please help. #Rohingya #Refugee,” he wrote, adding a link to a page by nonprofit Save the Children where people can make online donations to the cause.

The Rohingya Crisis Children’s Relief Fund will help provide refugee children and families with water, food, and shelter.

The Rohingya are a stateless Muslim minority in Burma’s Rakhine state, thought to number about 1 million people.

Burma does not recognize them as citizens or as one of the 135 recognized ethnic groups living in the country.

Since Aug. 25, more than 650,000 Rohingya have crossed from Burma’s western state of Rakhine into Bangladesh, according to the UN.

The refugees are fleeing a military crackdown in which security forces and Buddhist mobs have reportedly killed men, women, and children, looted homes, and torched Rohingya villages.

Why do Dogs start Barking (Howling) at the time of Azan ?

Q uestions: Why do dogs cry at the time of Fajr Azan? This is an incident that I’ve noticed very often.

Albani and others classified this Hadith as authentic. In Sahih Al Jamie’, following the above Hadith is stated: ..’And reduce going out when it is quiet( when everybody is indoors at night time) as Allah diffuses by night what He wishes among His Creation, and lock your doors and mention the Name of Allah on them as ...

Here’s What the Quran and Hadees Say on Getting Tattoos on Your Body

Narrated by ‘Abd-Allaah ibn Mas’ood (may Allah be pleased with him), “May Allah curse the women who do tattoos and those for whom tattoos are done, those who pluck their eyebrows and those who file their teeth for the purpose of beautification and alter the creation of Allah.” (al-Bukhaari, al-Libaas, 5587; Muslim, al-Libaas, 5538) When it comes to changing physical appearances, it is regarded as a sin in Islam.
