Barter System.

Do you know Barter system.In ancient time when there was no concept of money.People exchange items with each other which is called barter system.This was very confusing system because valuation was big problem in this respect.For example some one have horse and was interested to exchange this with grocery stuff like sugar,pulses,milk etc so this was a very time consuming and problematic job to find a person who posses these items and have a need of horse too.If he succeed to find a man with this things the next problem was that how to valuate these things for exchange. I think people are now very lucky that they have money in their hand which is ready for buying any thing any where any time......

Fasting in Islam.

Islam have five pillars.Fasting is one of them.Every mature Muslim above fourteen years will be from fasting for one month in a year and that month is called Ramadan in Islamic months. Fasting start one hour before sun rise and finished after ten minutes of sun set.In this period every type of food and drinking is prohibited.There are many objectives and advantage of these fasting.I want to explain some of them as under.
a)In medical it has good affect on health.
b)Fasting clean the body.
c)This is training for bad days.
d)This create sympathy in human beings as most of people in the world are poor and have nothing to eat.Thus due to fasting one may extend their maximum possible help and cooperation towards poor people.

Volunteering.

Volunteering is one of the most importent thing in every society and most of the work is possible due to this enthusiasm.Keeping in mind our community problems we registered a community based organization namely social league Sufiabad with social welfare department in 1990 with the basic objectives of Health,education,clean drinking water,environment,sanitation and pollution controle in our surroundings. For solving these problems and basic objectives we contacted many donors agencies on national and International level like
CI DA:.Canadian International development agency.
Lajnatul Dawal Islamia Al Arabia(Saudi Arab N.G.O)
Lajnatul Dawal Islamia Tul Kuwait.(Kuwait N.G.O)
With the donation of these Institute we constructed two poultry farm in our community with the objectives to provide employment opportunity,provision of chicken meat on reasonable rates to the members of community and as a permanent source of income.we also establish 700 hand pumps on various location of our community for clean drinking water.We also channelise the drainage system of our community.For environment and pollution control we planted about 5000 plants yearly from 1995 to date to have a clean environment.
In the field of education we started tuition programme in summer vacation for the student of our community.we also awarded prizes to the students of poor families which have good performance in their examination.we also approach to one of international Institute MERCY International which is specially for the orphans students.We are trying to continuously admit orphans students of our community with a free facility of hostel and food in the said organization from 1995.In the last i want to state again that volunteering is a very spirit and we must spare some time for this sacred profession to help the helpless peoples of our community.

Features of Canada

Canada is a very big country and have a lot of features but i will discuss the education system,summer session and job market of Canad.In my back home country I was very worried about the education of my kids as there is a very tough competition to get in professional Colleges like Engineering ,Medical , Law and commerce.When I came here I find that in Canada every one have equal approach/access to education.I am very happy that my kids are going well.Every type of facility is available in class room.Teachers is professional cooperative and very polite with students.
The second thing is its nice summer session.We enjoy about 7 month spring session over here because summer temperature of Canada is almost equal to my country spring temperature. So
we enjoyed this session and move around with my family in various parks of Edmonton.
The third thing is hot job market of Edmonton.Finding job in Edmonton Alberta is very easy if some one have a little bit capability.
