The purpose of your coverage “When my daughter broke her arm at school last winter, AXA network gave us access to a medical center close to my home and I was able to sleep at night without worrying about hospital costs.” What your health insurance cover is designed to do As with all insurance policies your “Seha” healthcare plan is there to cover you for costs arising from an unforeseen event. For healthcare insurance this means the cost of eligible treatment resulting from an unexpected illness or accident. You must take care of your own health and do not only rely on healthcare professionals to do this for you. When something unfortunate does affect your health we will do our best to help you but we must always act within the limits of your policy. At the same time, it is important that all members realize that it is in everyone’s best interest to use the group healthcare plan sensibly and responsibly to keep future premiums affordable. The level of premium your company pays for group coverage is determined by the amount of claims paid under the plan. When the plan is used irresponsibly, premiums can go up unnecessarily, taking funds away from other Company/Employee initiatives. 3 4.

  • Saudi Arabia Under King Faisal
    SAUDI ARABIA UNDER KING FAISAL ABSTRACT || T^EsIs SubiviiTTEd FOR TIIE DEqREE of ' * ISLAMIC STUDIES ' ^ O^ilal Ahmad OZuttp UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF DR. ABDUL ALI READER DEPARTMENT OF ISLAMIC STUDIES ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 1997 /•, •^iX ,:Q. ABSTRACT It is a well-known fact of history that ever since the assassination of capital Uthman in 656 A.D. the Political importance of Central Arabia, the cradle of Islam , including its two holiest cities Mecca and Medina, paled into in insignificance. The fourth Rashidi Calif 'Ali bin Abi Talib had already left Medina and made Kufa in Iraq his new capital not only because it was the main base of his power, but also because the weight of the far-flung expanding Islamic Empire had shifted its centre of gravity to the north. From that time onwards even Mecca and Medina came into the news only once annually on the occasion of the Haj. It was for similar reasons that the 'Umayyads 661-750 A.D. ruled form Damascus in Syria, while the Abbasids (750- 1258 A.D ) made Baghdad in Iraq their capital. However , after a long gap of inertia, Central Arabia again came into the limelight of the Muslim world with the rise of the Wahhabi movement launched jointly by the religious reformer Muhammad ibn Abd al Wahhab and his ally Muhammad bin saud, a chieftain of the town of Dar'iyah situated between *Uyayana and Riyadh in the fertile Wadi Hanifa. There can be no denying the fact that the early rulers of the Saudi family succeeded in bringing about political stability in strife-torn Central Arabia by fusing together the numerous war-like Bedouin tribes and the settled communities into a political entity under the banner of standard, Unitarian Islam as revived and preached by Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab.

  • CHAPTER 2 POETRY in the MODERN PERIOD A) Creation And
    CHAPTER 2 POETRY IN THE MODERN PERIOD A) Creation and development of modern poetry In this chapter we will discuss about the Saudi poetry in the modern age in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. We tell that the sentence of poetry is different from that of prose. The meaning in poetry is different from the meaning in prose. It is subject to the suffixed and pre-ffixed context. It is flexible and does not have a fixed meaning that we see in prose. The poetry gives its meanings in a guise of images, metaphors and symbols in which it suggests not decides and energizes not dampens. The difference between poetry and prose is like difference between dance and walk. So a person reading prose is like one who walks towards the goal following a marked path and intends direct direction wanting moderation in the walk and effort. The approaches of scholars who handled this experience varied. So some of them studied the development of poetry movement historically and discussed the successive generations of poets like Abdullah al-Hamid while some dealt with it according to the technical schools as Abdullah bin Abdul Jabbar, Sheikh Abdullah bin Idris, Dr. Mohammad bin Mohammad Hussein and Dr. Hasan al-Hawimal and others did. Others took up this trend as a regional study as per geographical division as professor Abdurrahim Abu Bakr, Dr. Al-Fauzan, Dr. Abudahish and others did. It seems that the study of the generation is most difficult as the different trends happen in the same period. But the technical study demmands following the trends to reveal the beauties of every trend separately.It is not a diligent study of development of this movement and trends that is why it requires a huge effort.
