In Chapter 55 of the Quran after mentioning about the creation of man, teaching man, balancing of heavenly bodies, vegetation, animals, Jinn, sunrise, sunset, oceans, ships, etc., it is stated that everything will perish except the Person (Face or Attention) of Allah, the Possessor of glory and honour (Chapter 55: Verse 27). This shows that Allah SWT is Eternally Existing then after that there is the description of hell and paradise full of pleasure and this again ends with the statement:
Blessed is the name of your Fosterer, Possessor of glory and honour (Chapter 55: Verse 78)
In this chapter from verse 46 to 76 there is description of the majesty and grandeur of paradise, then how Majestic, Exalted and Grand Allah SWT Himself should be?
Jalal occurs in only two verses of the Quran Chapter 55, Verses 27, 78 and at both the places it is associated with Ikram meaning honour and 'Zul Jalali Wal Ikram' is normally translated as the Possessor of glory and honour.
Al Jaleel would therefore mean The Glorious.

This is the factory approach of online and digital learning, with all learners proceeding through the content linearly and heading in the same direction. Online learning can be creative, enable creativity, decision-making and control over learning, in ways that face-to-face teaching cannot. Avoid treating completion of online learning as going through the motions of just making it to the end of the module.

Tübingen, Germany
The Swabian university town of Tübingen is a place of research and teaching. Over 28,000 students from Germany and around the world join the town’s population of around 90,000. At the University’s seven Faculties, 450 professors and more than 4,000 other scientific and academic staff carry out their research and teaching. The University offers more than 280 courses.
Tübingen is best described as a mixture of old and distinguished academic flair, including liberal and green politics on the one hand and traditional German-style student fraternities on the other, with rural-agricultural environs and shaped by typical Lutheran-Pietist characteristics, such as austerity and a Protestant work ethic, and traditional Swabian elements, such as frugality, order and tidiness.
Tübingen combines the flair of a lovingly restored, picturesque medieval centre of town with the colorful bustle and typical atmosphere of a young and cosmopolitan students' town.
In 1995, the German weekly magazine Focus published a national survey according to which Tübingen had the highest quality of life of all cities in Germany. Factors taken into consideration included the infrastructure, the integration of bicycle lanes into the road system, a bus system connecting surrounding hills and valleys, late night services, areas of the town that can be reached on foot, the pedestrianised old town, other amenities and cultural events offered by the university. Tübingen is the city with the youngest average population in Germany.
In the 1960s, Tübingen was one of the centres of the German student movement and the Protests of 1968 and has ever since shaped left and green political views. Some radicalized Tübingen students supported the leftist Rote Armee Fraktion terrorist group, with active member Gudrun Ensslin, a local and a Tübingen student from 1960 to 1963, joining the group in 1968.
Boris Palmer (* 1972) (Bündnis 90/Die Grünen - "Green Party") has been mayor of Tübingen since January 2007. In 2014 he was reelected for another eight-year term. He studied history and mathematics at the Eberhard Karls University of Tübingen and in Sydney from 1993 to 1999.
Palmer is considered a no-frills high profile politician and was acknowledged for effectiveness and edgy positions and behavior well beyond his own party. Palmer's stance for green-conservative coalitions is well known and has been deemed as controversial within the party. He is known to ride an electrical bicycle instead of a car, even on official business.
Tübingen
Mit der 1477 gegründeten Eberhard Karls Universität gehört Tübingen zu den klassischen deutschen Universitätsstädten. Das städtische Leben wird stark geprägt von den rund 28.600 Studenten (Stand: Wintersemester 2014/2015).
1476 wurde ein Kollegiatstift gegründet, das die wirtschaftlichen und personellen Voraussetzungen für die Gründung einer Universität bot. Die Pfarrkirche St. Georg wurde zur Stiftskirche. Die Gründung der Eberhard Karls Universität erfolgte ein Jahr darauf. 1536 wurde von Herzog Ulrich von Württemberg als Stipendium für evangelische Theologiestudenten das Evangelische Stift Tübingen gegründet.
Bürgermeister
Boris Palmer (* 1972) (Bündnis 90/Die Grünen) ist seit Januar 2007 Oberbürgermeister der Stadt Tübingen. 2014 wurde er im ersten Wahlgang für eine zweite Amtsperiode wiedergewählt. Die Amtszeit des Oberbürgermeisters beträgt acht Jahre. Die nächste Oberbürgermeisterwahl findet 2022 statt.
Boris Palmer hat seinen Dienstwagen nach eigenen Angaben „durch ein Elektrofahrrad ersetzt“ und nutzt außerdem selten ein städtisches Dienstfahrzeug.
Boris Palmer studierte von 1993 bis 1999 Geschichte und Mathematik auf Lehramt an der Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen und in Sydney. Im Anschluss arbeitete er als wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter für die Fraktion von Bündnis 90/Die Grünen im Bundestag.
Flüchtlingspolitik
Palmer forderte von seiner Partei 2015 „Realismus in der Flüchtlingsdebatte“: Aufgrund der Vielzahl von Flüchtlingen und überlasteter Aufnahmekapazitäten sei es nötig, Abschiebungen von abgelehnten Asylbewerbern mitzutragen und sichere Herkunftsländer neu zu definieren. Man müsse fragen, „ob Menschen, die aus wirtschaftlichen Gründen zu uns kommen, die aus purer Not zu uns kommen, ob die den gleichen Grund haben, bei uns Unterschlupf zu finden, wie Menschen die vor Krieg fliehen. Und ich glaube, die Antwort ist nein.“
Volunteer Uganda 2014 Teaching and Orphanage program
Volunteer in one of two local orphanages in the Wakiso district, located outside of the city of Kampala. The village orphanage and school not only provide a home and safe haven this is where the children have classes.
Most of these children have lost parents to HIV/Aids. Some have been abandoned, and they know abuse, hunger and fear. The orphanage strives to provide a better future for some of the most vulnerable children in Uganda. As a volunteer, you will primarily assist with the daily care of the kids; getting them ready for school, brushing teeth, reading to them. After-school activates you can play games, arrange activities, create arts & crafts projects and share your time and caring with these wonderful children.
Prior experience not necessary, volunteers should have a lot of patience, an open mind and a sense of compassion. The children range in age from 3yrs-13yrs old.

The idea is to provide a social learning and working environment for teachers across the University, combining elements of both social spaces and learning/working spaces. This would provide regular, cross-faculty exposure to innovative learning for all teachers, and a place where permanent, casual and sessional staff can work on online learning projects.
This would be a place for sharing and refining ideas; a place for learning new ways; a place to be inspired and supported.
