  Independence Day In India Later, we find an image of Gandhi’s initial response to the violence that broke out in Calcutta in Calcutta in 1920. “As I read this newspaper this morning,” Gandhi wrote in his letter to Prabhoo Jamati Prabhoo (Lal Bahadur Shastri), the father of the Indian Independence Movement, “I cannot believe that the future of India is to be run by barbarians. I believe in peace, freedom, justice and equality. In such circumstances, I have no faith in independence. I feel it would be more foolish and unwise for me and you to throw away our own traditions to accustom ourselves to the conduct of untrammeled kings. So, we should not flatter ourselves by thinking that we will be independent as a people, politically, economically, and culturally, after the attainment of independence. We will not be independent in the sense that we can give ourselves free choice in our personal affairs. On the other hand, we will not be independent in the sense that we will find it easier t

 Eid Al-Adha is the Eid on which Muslims slaughter sheep and goats. In Islam, Eid Al-Adha is one of the Five Eid Festivals, along with Eid Al-Fitr, Eid Al-Ramadan, Eid Al-Al-Fitr, and Eid Al-Hijra. 21 July 2021 Eid Al-Adha   To commemorate Eid Al-Adha, Muslims slaughter a ram or a goat. The animal is sacrificed and its meat distributed amongst the poor in Saudi Arabia and among Muslims everywhere. Eid Al-Adha marks the end of the first month of the Islamic calendar, Al-Hijra.

The Hajj is one of the pillars of Islam, alongside prayer, fasting, and giving charity.

The Hajj commemorates the first revelation of the Quran to Prophet Muhammad and his family at the time of the Battle of Khaybar in 624 CE, as recounted in the Hadith. Each Eid is o

Mother's Day is on 9th of May.  Mother's Day is just around the corner and I couldn't be more excited. I don't think there's a greater gift than the gift of children, and getting to be a mother to two beautiful, hilarious, ridiculously loud, intelligent, mischievous little boys (and an older sister who keeps our young minds on her toes) is something I can't quite wrap my mind around. They're only four and seven, and just like everything else that's happened in our lives, it's amazing. The fact that I can say that is beyond a gift to me, it's a huge honor and blessing from the one who really deserves the gifts. Mother's Day should be all about that, and if you're a mother or know someone who is, please take a few moments to honor them and honor the role you play in their life. Take a moment to honor the God who gave them to you and the beautiful, dynamic souls he created you to be. If you're a mother or know someone who is, please take

This day of the year marks the anniversary of the realisation of India’s independence by the Indian National Congress from the British. The British had declared India’s independence on 1st January 1947 but the Congress did not let this happen as they wanted to retain control of India’s internal matters, including foreign affairs.
