I'm back after a long break from Flickr. This was taken at a sufi sema ceremony as part of the 800th anniversary celebrations for the birth of the 13th century poet, mystic and theologian, Rumi, featuring traditional whirling dervishes. Unfortunately I was only able to shoot a few frames before I was asked to put away my camera.

Three weeks ago while at Costco I ran into this guy that was getting a copy made of his photo of Muhammad Ali as the Grand Marshal in the 1967 Watts Summer Festival and Parade. The photo was taken by my friend's 1st cousin, Howard Bingham. Mr. Bingham was Ali's photographer and close friend.

Assalamu Alikum, peace be upon you all..
The religion of Islam respects freedoms far more than any laws and other religions. Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him (PBUH), has taught us respect of others' freedoms and rights, principles of sound negotiation, exchange of views, and using the right evidence and proof. Prophet Muhammad has taught us that our freedom of speech should not conflict with respecting all religions and prophets.
The art concerning Muhammad (Peace be upon him) is calligraphic in nature, that's according to the Islamic traditions and concepts. It hurts me to see such cartoons mocking my dear Prophet under the cover of "freedom of speech". Blocking ears and closing eyes to such claims and insult to the Prophet of Islam is the gravest aggression against human rights. Nothing further to be said..
P.S: This is something that I wanted to do long time ago since I was feeling an agony 'caused by the printing (and reprinting) of these drawings. The photo is displayed for photography criticism purposes. Any insulting comments to any prophet (Peace be upon them all), religion or belief will be deleted.
For non-Arabic readers, the photo captures a page of Qur'an, exactly states the following: "But those who believe and work deeds of righteousness, and believe in the (Revelation) sent down to Muhammad - for it is the Truth from their Lord,- He will remove from them their ills and improve their condition. "
Mohamed Ali demande et obtient en 2002 que son étoile soit apposée, non pas sur le trottoir, mais sur un mur.
Sarnia Sertoma Clubs Annual Sportsman Dinner 1974 Guildwood Inn - Muhammad Ali doodle on tablecloth. Larry Csonka was scheduled but couldn't make it (too bad), but Ali stepped in last minute which was "the greatest"!
George Chavalo was also a speaker that night. Saw that Ali was doodling away, didn't know onto what, until after the dinner. Raced up to the table, saw the doodle, saw it was signed, dated and began removing dishes etc and rolled up the tablecloth.
It was a night to remember... #RIP #MuhammadAli #Ali

A few weeks ago, your favorite pimp was out grocery shopping. This adventure went like most days do at the grocery store. It usually entails me randomly walking up and down the aisles trying to remember what I need. No, I don’t do lists. I tried that once and I wound up taking 3 times as long to find all the shit on the list.
But the best part of my grocery shopping experience these days is trying to keep track of the 8 year old babe whizzing around me. My non-diagnosed but very attention deficient daughter likes to touch every single god damn thing in sight. She can usually be seen practicing her tight rope walking skills on the sides of the freezers while I hit the cold section.
Go by the canned food section and you can guarantee she'll be stopping to check out the all of the Campbell’s Chicken Noodle soup. Princess version ONLY. See, Chloe is a kid AND a girl, so naturally she must have this version. Of course this also necessitates the extreme price hike.
Head over to the produce section because you need some lettuce and tomatoes. Neither of which interests the babe though. You'll have a better chance of finding her picking through all of the cherries to find one that does NOT have a seed. Her strategy of eating cherries one by one has not has not proved successful yet in finding one that is seedless.
OH and last week I came to the dairy section. And I realized it was time to buy eggs. During my food buying thought process, for some reason I decided to go green.
No motherfucker I’m not going to give you some green eggs and ham nonsense by going Dr Seuss on your ass! I mean I decided to buy organic cage-free eggs. Go green! Like mother Earth dude! Yee-haw.
Yes, the organic eggs cost more. But it kind of dawned upon me that the extra couple dollars I would spend here could maybe have an impact on saving 1 lousy chicken from living in a cage its entire life. I felt all proud like I did something for the greater good.
The shit don't taste any different. I doubt it's "better" for me. But you figure if I spend a few more dollars buying these trendy ass organic eggs, I might save a whole fucking flock of chickens before my death.
Cool! I couldn't wait to tell the supermarket ninja that we're going to help out some poor chicken fucker on a farm somewhere by buying these damn things. Now where is the elusive one? Ah....
(looking) ....
(looking) ....
(looking) ....oh! There she is! She's checking out the serving size of how many grams of sugar each block of cheese contains by investigating every food label one by one. And to her astonishment every single one is ZERO!
"Yes I know it's zero on each one babe, very cool, come on let's go. Oh and wait till you hear about these eggs we're gonna get."

Another one of Czesław Słania's non-postal, private, engravings, the fourteenth in a series of 23 engravings of heavy-weight boxing world champions, starting with John Sullivan and ending with Cassius Clay.
James J. Braddock, original name James Walter Braddock, (born June 7, 1905, New York, New York, U.S.—died November 29, 1974, North Bergen, New Jersey), American world heavyweight boxing champion from June 13, 1935, when he outpointed Max Baer in 15 rounds at the Long Island City Bowl in New York City, until June 22, 1937, when he was knocked out by Joe Louis in Chicago.
Braddock’s professional name was changed by his manager to James J. early in his career, patterning the name after fighters James J. Corbett and James J. Jeffries. A professional fighter from 1926, Braddock lost to the light-heavyweight champion Tommy Loughran in a 15-round title bout in New York City in 1929; his career spiraled downward from that point. Living on relief and seemingly at the end of his pugilistic career, Braddock returned to the ring in 1934 and earned a chance at the heavyweight championship with several unexpected victories; the odds against him in the Baer match, for example, were said to have been about 10 to 1. Because of Braddock’s quick second rise from obscurity to fame, Damon Runyon nicknamed him the “Cinderella Man.”
Defending his title against Louis, Braddock was the underdog but held his own surprisingly well against the younger fighter until his eighth round knockout. Braddock’s contract with Louis, however, called for that fighter to pay 10 percent of any future title purses won should he defeat Braddock, which ensured Braddock financial security no matter who won the bout. Braddock won his final fight, against Tommy Farr, in 1938 and retired. His career total was 86 bouts with 51 wins (26 by knockouts), and he was inducted into Ring magazine’s Boxing Hall of Fame in 1964. [Source: Britannica]
On eBay these boxer stamps seem to be traded much like baseball cards, but because of the real rarity of them, prices can get quite high, and fake copies exist. I just checked, Cassius Clay stamps are priced from 4 USD for a block of four, or c. 9,900 USD for a single, while a complete series can be had for c. 60 USD. Makes you wonder which are genuine and which are fakes. I bought mine directly from Słania, so I know they are the real deal.
Słania was a great fan of boxing. In 1987, when he and his friend and colleague Hans Nyman were in Toronto for the world exhibition Capex 87, the fire alarm went off in their hotel. Nyman, who was staying on the third floor rushed out of bed and down to the lobby, but there was no sign of Słania among the hundreds of hotel guests. It turned out to be a false alarm, so everyone returned to their rooms. In the morning Nyman asked why Słania didn't get down. He replied that he was watching a boxing match on TV and since he was staying on the 14th floor, he probably wouldn't be able to get down in time, so he might as well keep watching the match. That's dedication for you. [Source: Thorsten Sandberg: "Czeslaw Slania The Collector's Icon - Colleague - Friend", Postryttaren 2008, my translation].

من هو رسولنا ...كلمات قليله تذكرنا بفضل نبينا
محمد بن عبد الله بن عبد المطلب، يعتبره المسلمون رسول الله للبشرية ليعيدهم إلى توحيد الله وعبادته، ويؤمنون بأنه خاتم النبيين والمرسلين،[1] وأنه أشرف المخلوقات وسيّد البشر،[2] كما يعتقدون فيه العصمة.[3] عند ذكر اسمه، يُلحِق المسلمون عبارة «صلى الله عليه وسلم» مع إضافة «وآله» و«وصحبه» في بعض الأحيان، لِمَا جاء في القرآن والسنة النبوية مما يحثهم على الصلاة عليه.[4] اعتبره الكاتب اليهودي مايكل هارت أعظم الشخصيّات أثرًا في تاريخ الإنسانية كلّها باعتباره «الإنسان الوحيد في التاريخ الذي نجح نجاحًا مطلقًا على المستوى الديني والدنيوي».[5] ترك محمد أثرًا كبيرًا في نفوس المسلمين، حتى كثُرت مظاهر محبّتهم وتعظيمهم له، من ذلك الاحتفال بمولده، واتباعهم لأمره وأسلوب حياته وعباداته، وقيامهم بحفظ أقواله وأفعاله وصفاته وجمع ذلك في كتب عُرفت بكتب الحديث النبوي.
ولد في مكة في شهر ربيع الأول من عام الفيل قبل ثلاث وخمسين سنة من الهجرة (هجرته من مكة إلى المدينة)، ما يوافق سنة 570 أو 571 ميلاديًا و52 ق هـ.[6] ولد يتيم الأب وفقد أمه في سنّ مبكرة فتربى في كنف جده عبد المطلب ثم من بعده عمه أبي طالب حيث ترعرع، وكان في تلك الفترة يعمل بالرعي ثم بالتجارة. تزوج في سنِّ الخامسة والعشرين من خديجة بنت خويلد وأنجب منها كل أولاده باستثناء إبراهيم. كان قبل الإسلام يرفض عبادة الأوثان والممارسات الوثنية التي كانت منتشرة في مكة.[7] ويؤمن المسلمون أن الوحي نزل عليه وكُلّف بالرسالة وهو ذو أربعين سنة، أمر بالدعوة سرًا لثلاث سنوات، قضى بعدهنّ عشر سنوات أُخَر في مكة مجاهرًا بدعوة أهلها وكل من يرد إليها من التجار والحجيج وغيرهم. هاجر إلى المدينة المنورة والمسماة يثرب آنذاك عام 622م وهو في الثالثة والخمسين من عمره بعد أن تآمر عليه سادات قريش ممن عارضوا دعوته وسعوا إلى قتله، فعاش فيها عشر سنين أُخر داعيًا إلى الإسلام، وأسس بها نواة الحضارة الإسلامية، التي توسعت لاحقًا وشملت مكة وكل المدن والقبائل العربية، حيث وحَّد العرب لأول مرة على ديانة توحيدية ودولة موحدة، ودعا لنبذ العنصرية والعصبية القبلية.[8][9]
Who is Muhammad?
Muhammad* was born in Makkah in the year 570* at a time when Christianity was not yet fully established in Europe. Since his father died before his birth* and his mother shortly afterwards* he was raised by his uncle from the respected tribe of Quraysh. As he grew up* he became known for his truthfulness* generosity and sincerity* so that he was sought after for his ability to arbitrate in disputes. The historians describe him as calm and meditative.
Muhammad was of a deeply religious nature* and had long detested the decadence of his society. It became his habit to meditate from time to time in the Cave of Hira near the summit of Jabal al-Nur* the 'Mountain of Light' near Makkah.
How did Muhammad become a prophet and a messenger of God?
At the age of 40* while engaged in a meditative retreat* Muhammad received his first revelation from God through the Angel Gabriel. This revelation* which continued for twenty-three years* is known as the Quran.
The Zahir Mosque (Malay: Masjid Zahir) is Kedah's state mosque. It is located in the heart of Alor Star, the state capital of Kedah, Malaysia. It is one of the grandest and oldest mosques in Malaysia, built in 1912.[1] The design was inspired by the vision of the late Sultan Muhammad Jiwa Zainal Abidin II who was inspired by the Azizi Mosque of the Langkat Sultanate in North Sumatra.[1] The state's Quran reading competition is held annually within the premises of the mosque. This mosque has been voted the top 10 most beautiful mosques in the world.[2]- Wikipedia
