BASIC REQUIREMENTS

Assalamu Alaikum

In my last post, I had given an introduction to Web Earnings. The first lesson is on Web Designing. To learn the entire course and make you a Webmaster, the following are the requirements:

1. Basic knowledge of typewriting: Initially, even typing with two fingers is enough. But you must develop a speed of at least 40 words per minute.

2. Basic knowledge of Computers: You have computer knowledge that is why you are reading this. But I expect you to inform your sons and daughters or brothers and sisters about the good opportunities open in Web Designing field. So, it is necessary for them to learn the basics of computer operation.

3. A computer: If you own one, it is good. Many of you have purchased a computer out of enthusiasm but it is covered nicely and kept in a corner. Don’t make the PCs useless by keeping them idle. Printer ink and UPS batteries get dried up unless used. If you cannot afford to buy one beg or borrow from your neighbor. Pentium PIII used computers are now available for Rs.7000 to 8000 range. Check the PC thoroughly before buying one.

4. Internet Connection: I will elaborate on this subject in my next posting, Insha Allah.

WEB EARNINGS

Hello Friends!

I am very happy to know that your KayalparnamCommunity site has become very popular within a short period. Alhamdhu Lillah. However, I will be pleased if you post your comments in the site just clicking the comment button. You may also send your comments to my e-mail address Khwaja.Shah@gmail.com. Please do not use the e-mail address given earlier.
Almighty Allah has bestowed on us at least one skill to earn our livelihood. He may have given some of you more than one skill. If we are not utilizing that skill, it is due to our own laziness. First of all try to find out the skill that you possess. A cook prepares food for a marriage party of 1000 people. You may not be able to do that. He plans, organizes, prepares and serves the food on time without any complaint. Is it not a skill that he possesses? He can earn money from Internet by creating a Website and posting the knowledge he possesses in the Web. Do not underestimate yourself. You have lot of potentials within you. You can mint money from those potentials. Identify your skill/skills first. As I said earlier, I am going to post a series of articles on how to make money. The first on the list is Web Designing and earning money.

Are you educated but not employed? Learn Web Designing from your home and become a Webmaster. You can get employment with five figure salary. Or you can become a business man/woman by getting yourself self-employed.

Are you beneficially employed and you want to make money on part time? Learn Web Designing from your home and become a Webmaster. Become a Web Consultant or create your own Web Site and earn money.

I am going to lead you through several postings on how you can become a Webmaster and earn money. The project that I am going to explain to you is a very good avenue to earn decent income. This is suitable for both men and women. You don’t have to go to any institute to learn the skill of web designing. You can learn from home and can get a well recognized diploma too. Mind you, degrees and diplomas are not important. The skill that you acquire in any field is important. Only skills pay you and not your degrees and diplomas. Try to follow the steps carefully to become a skilled webmaster than a qualified webmaster.

Please wait for my next posting.

IS JELLY ALLOWED IN ISLAM?

IS JELLY ALLOWED IN ISLAM?

Whenever we do shopping, especially when we are returning from abroad, we buy a jar of Jelly containing 50 or 100 pieces.This jelly is packed in conical plastic cups and are very attractive because they are made in different colors. Our children love it. Before a few years, it was not available in the market. Nowadays, it is available even in petty shops for 50 paise and one rupee. Our children are happy to spend their pocket money in buying this jelly. Our women folk buy jelly powder or granules from shops to make desserts on special occasions. Now it is common to mix this colorful jelly with our traditional china grass and make desserts to treat our relations and friends.

Do we know from what or how the jelly in cones is made? Buy Jelly powder from shops. Add food colors and flavors to this powder. Boil water and add this powder mix and sugar. Stir well. Cool the mix and fill the cones. Refrigerate the jelly filled cones for cooled dessert. Now it is ready for serving. Wait. Don’t hurry to the nearby super market or baqala to buy the powder.
Do you know from what the jelly powder is made? A few months back, I read on article in the New Indian Express –health page about jelly. Wherever possible, I spread the news how the jelly powder is made.To share my knowledge with my community, I browsed Internet and collected the following information.

The raw material for Jelly is Collagen. Collagen dried and powdered is named as gelatin. Gelatin is flavored and sold as powder. The desserts made of gelatin is Jelly. Now read carefully how the collagen is produced. The bones, hooves and horns of cattle and skin of pigs are boiled. Then the boiled materials are soaked with acid or alkalin to extract and hydrolyse the protien called Collagen. This villain becomes the hero with the name gelatin when dried and powdered. Gelatin then becomes Jelly which our children love most and we eat as dessert in our homes. This jelly causes many diseases. Ananlysing those detailsare not our concern as our primary concern is about collagen itself. Now you decide whether this colorful and attractive Monster is to be allowed in our homes!

Inform your family members, friends and relatives to avoid this jelly totally. When you come home next time do not carry this for your beloved children and family.

Your blogger Khwaja Shah says:
The above are the highlights of the literature distributed and the lecture delivered by the Unit Head, Capt. William Thangaraj in the meeting held at SPIC Gymkhana.( Refer my previous post). The reason to take up this course in our blog is that the course is conducted at SPIC premises by NTTF which is a famous institution in technical training. The center is closer to us. However, the participants in the meeting raised questions on high fee charged. Capt. William also mentioned that the institution is not recognized by AICTE. According to him, AICTE is ready to give approval but they do not agree to the two terms of NTTF. One is NTTF should not be compelled to reduce fees and other is no quota system should be applied to NTTF.

We have given you the merits and demerits of the courses. Now, it is up to you to decide. We are not agents or affiliates to the institution. Choice is yours.

Insha Allah, we will be covering more short term training courses for engineers in our next post.

ANNOUNCEMENTS IN JUMA

Moulana Moulavi Janab Abdul Cader Alim made two announcements in today’s Juma as instructed by the Management of the mosque.

Before telling you the announcements, let us say something about kidnapping. About a month back it was reported that a gang of about 4/5 people were trying to drag a child of about 10 years to a van parked aside in bye-pass road. The boy’s friends who were accompanying him raised alarm and the people around came running to rescue the boy. The gang left the boy and escaped. Intention? Kidnapping.

For the last two weeks many such cases were reported. The gang come in a van or a car and try to lure the children with sweets or try to throw some powder, keeping the car door open. Three such cases were reported by eye witnesses. In all these, their attempts failed because the children ran away.

You are well aware of the happenings in Noida near Delhi. At Noida, the culprit is stated to be a pervert. He along with his servant abused children between the age group of 10-15 years. It was reported in a section of news papers that the servant after killing the children used the flesh to eat. This case, as on now, is a case of mental imbalance of the culprits. Many kidnappings are now happening in India, more in north and less in south. The motives differ. Some kidnappings are for ransom money (as in the case of Adobe CEO’s 4 year old boy). Other kidnappings are for prostitution, begging, taking away kidneys etc. We are finding every alternate day one such case of kidnappings.

Nowadays we find many northerners, who do not know Tamil, in our streets selling brooms, blankets etc. They talk only in Hindi. We all should discourage such people doing business. Our women folk should be advised not to entertain them and allow their entry into our ‘mudukku’.

Our respected Katheef made the following two important announcements:

1. As a gang of kidnappers are trying to kidnap our children, we should take all care to protect our children. The parents or ayahs should escort the children to schools and madrasas. Even though the children are aware of these incidents they some times, because of their innocence, get trapped in the hands of this gang. A toy is enough to cheat the children. So, our Alim has instructed all of us to be on guard. (Please inform your home)

2. Another important announcement is about our Chiriya Juma Masjid. The construction of the mosque is almost complete by the Will of Allah. However, the finishing part remains incomplete. The management of the mosque is in need of about Rs.1.5 lakh to paint walls and wooden items such as doors, windows and almiras. Insha Allah, with this amount the work will be complete. Alim requests every one of us to contribute generously.

EDUCATION AND TRAINING

School vacation is coming. Exams.have started for 12th standard and 10th exams. are about to start. As a father or brother, you are more worried about the future of your children. No more entrance exam. for professional courses. Unless the students score very good marks, it is difficult to get admissions in professional courses. You are away from home doing your business or employed. You are in other parts of India or abroad, somewhere in Saudi or in UAE, or in Africa, or in China or in Hong Kong earning your livelihood for your family. You know it is your concern to guide your sons and daughters towards better future. Our people were doing gem business or leather business or iron scrap business and inducted their sons into their business. Now the scenario has changed due to various reasons. Education has become essential not only for knowledge but also for decent living.

About 50 years back, our women were unlettered but now find at least one graduate in each house. When we talk about education, we can not forget our heroes like Janab Abdul Hai Alim, who started Kahira Padasalai, Janab L.K.Lebbe Thamby mama who carried on the mission of Janab Abdul Hai Alim and championed the starting of a High School at Peyan Vilai – K.A. High School and Janab M.K.T. Aboobacker mama who started the elementary school at central Kayal to facilitate children of that area to get education. May Allah show mercy on them.

India is not as it was before 50 years. For the last 5 years, India is marching ahead at a rapid phase in all areas, especially in technological field. Shortly we will be one of the best in the world in the field of technology. We are proud to be Indians as we are now respected anywhere in the world. I was closely associated with LK mama during my school and college days and even after that till his last days. It is not an exaggeration, and many of you who knew LK mama closely will agree with me, when I say that he was Abdul Kalam of the past. He had lot of dreams. He wanted all of our people, both men and women, to get educated. He had a strong conviction that our people are most intelligent, talented and tolerant people. Tolerant in the sense that they can live amicably whether they are in North pole or Sahara Desert. His saying has come true. Now we find our community people all over the world as Engineers, Chartered Accountants, Medical professionals, Advocates, people with doctorates in various fields, IIM MBAs, Technologists in Information, Scientists and many more.

Only area where we are lagging behind is Government jobs. We have no IAS, IPS, IFS officers. We have no Ambassadors. We have no Collectors in Administration, Customs and Excise Depts. Insha Allah, our future generation will fulfill this desire in the near future. There was a time when people who went to madrasas to become Alims and Hafizul Quran remained as Alims and Hafizs only. Now we have Engineer- Hafiz, Doctor- Hafiz, Scientist – Hafiz and so on. To my knowledge, there is no Engineer- Alim, Doctor – Alim, Scientist Alim etc. If we all spend some energy towards this goal our dreams will come true. University graduate-Alims can lead their life in spiritual way and guide our people towards Islam without any fear and prejudice.

To help you –the man away from home- we are going to post some educational and training courses that may benefit our community. Many alternatives will be presented to you. Choice is yours. We all have in our blood ‘selflessness’. We do not think of ourselves alone. We think of our neighbors and relatives. The guidelines may not be beneficial to you at present because your children are small but surely you may guide your neighbors and relatives. Let us all make a better educated and prosperous Kayalpatnam and in turn a better educated and prosperous India.

Our next posting will be, Insha Allah, on ‘Technical education and employment prospects’. This blogger spared time to attend a meeting conducted by NTTF Technical Training centre, jointly with SPIC Jaycees and SPIC Lioness Club of Thoothukudy at SPIC Gymkhana on 7th March, 2007 between 5.30 PM and 7.30 PM on the above subject. Your blogger had to forego his Magrib prayer to attend this meeting. May Allah forgive me as this is for the benefit of our community. Wait for next posting. Till then, Assalamu Alaikum. Khuda Hafiz.
