Question 1: Hanan – 30 – Female – Canada Married to Recently Converted Muslim

As-salam `alaikum. I have a concern that I wish to be clarified. I'm getting married to recently converted Muslim who also changed his first name to my father's first name as sign of respect. I was wondering if this is allowed in Shari`ah, or it wasn't allowed in Islam. Thank You so much. Answer: Wa `alaykum as-salamu wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh. In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. All praise and thanks are due to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon His Messenger.

Thank you for your question. Sister, you are best advised to check the morals and religiosity of the suitor. His real commitment to Islam should be your top concern. Your family, local imam, and close Muslim friends could help you know more about his charac- ters and morals. As for changing his name to another name “same of your father’s first name”, `QÊʱ½CÊ;±^8ÊEÊ:g «±bÊÊ­\=7$bÊÊ ¿RÊ6±TÊ6N;ÊcÊ9^:Ê4±ýcÊÊ9ÊÒ ±Q<˜_<ÊgC¬d¯CÊ<b79Êd±Ë»CÊ4ê±^: EÊ„ÒÎÒ­dCÊ=CÊ6 Ò`ʱRʱÎCÊ: it’s up to him.

WASHINGTON, Oct.18 (Saba)- The World Bank (WB) and the Interna- tional Monetary Fund (IMF) have called on Yemen to adopt further reforms to raise the rate of economic growth to exit the fragile economic situation and get its share of interna- tional aid.

The WB said that Yemen's economic recovery is still weak, although it is estimated that Yemen's economy has grown by about 2.4 per cent in 2012 after a slide into recession in 2011 and the shrinkage in the gross domestic product (GDP) by about 12.7 per cent.

The latest evaluation reports of the Yemeni economy issued by the World Bank showed that the budget deficit has expanded to reach 6.2 per cent of the GDP in 2012, while the current account deficit dropped to about 1 per cent of GDP.

"Three grants oil from Saudi Arabia, each of one worth one billion dollars, have helped in the stability of the situ- ation of the Yemeni economy in gen- eral .. However, the improvement in the economic prospects will depend on the progress made at the political and economic levels, and continued sup- port of donors and implementation of the critical reforms ", the Bank said in its latest report. ˜E=Cˆ±¹±bê±Ò»C:7±Ò dCÊ2Rʱ«±»¼bʱT=Êg»`9­——ÐPÊ; ™RÊbÊ­œ£’«CÊ ±ÐÒRÊ=CÊPÊ=6¹ The World Bank touched on the chal- E= ˆ±ÎÒP±D=R »±PjˆX2 `“œš›ÎÒM±`R/ lenges facing Yemen at the present. ý]ºÒ–ÐP;EÊj»bd ¯RÊ @ The Bank said: "Yemen is one of the ³SÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ:ÊÊ EÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ=ÊÊPÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ=ÊÊj ÀRýÐP;E»ÐAʽb:9^8/Ò E;ÊPÐPÊ;^4&EÊb8Ê'±X2 »CÊ ¯ poorest countries in the Arab world,  ´ C4:9ÓRÊ8±S±RÊê±P?CÊ< 6 ^bÊ:±ý_ÊCÊ4±ÓbÊ ÊcÊ9³PÊg±» and it is estimated that poverty rates - `CjbÊ0 P Ê E=Ê ˆ±E=CÊê± ÓPÊ;Ê:9ÎÒM±ÏbÊÊ=±ýÒ˜dÊ ˆ± that were in an actual increase before Cb8jEÊ=C2RʱE;SÊ(±»±Pj¯Î C=CÏC7Êê±dêC4±d ˆ±Ô¹C0Ê„± the recent political crisis - has ^7ê±ÏCÊÊ4±·RÊ2Э`Ê8ñÒ˜EÊ= ¯ C=C2ÊRЭC1Ê­ÐÒR=C`Ê9­ÐP;ý increased from 42 per cent of the pop- HAMZEH PHARMACY °¹CÊ Z CÊÊ7CÊ2Ê CʹCÊ=  `ʹ PÊ; »PÊ0EÊ:9 ÊRÊ=EÊÒ¹ÎÒ­N0Ê ulation in 2009 to 54.5 per cent in ÐbÊ=9œššEÊ:=7EÊÊ= ˆ±EÊ4RÊ/± _ CÊÊÊ EÊÊÒRÊÊ4ê±Ò EÊÊ= Ê ¯ ´±PÊÊ; 2012." _Ò˜“Ò»bÐb=9œž’d;=R ¯a=; ˜ŒÍb8jŒ ³S:³R¼d C E¹C=0±˱R A ³S:cP: The report pointed out that the rates of EʱRÊê±PÊ:4ÎbÊÊj?ÊÍbÊ80±XÊ» population growth in Yemen is among PÊg±bÊ6±Ô¹CÊ6]ºÒPÊÊgCÊ4±PÊPÊ ´CÊRÊ/±dÊ ˆ±RÊ @Êê±¹PÊ= Ò the highest in the world, and 45 per dCÊ2Rʱ EÊ=CÊê± R¼Ò RÊÒ ˜EÊbRʱ R3$d±E= ˆ±E4RÊ/±ZE7±bê± cent of the population suffer from food MOHAMMAD * NANCY ^8/Эý^M±`ÊлbÊ Ò­¶»b Ò­ÎbÊ8±³»CÊÊ%ýÎbÊ PʱÒCÊRʱ insecurity, and also the scarce water ²QÊ& Œ±SÊ6Œ ÍbÊ80ʱÑQÊ»±PÊj¯ C=Ò¹CÊ:=¼›ŸbÊÍ»C/Ò˜³RÊC7ê± resources in Yemen are less than the E=C2Rʱ´CR/±GÊ'Ò´±»C: „± ¼±bdCÊ C±«±»¼bʱT=g»_<;=`Ê average for the region. ˜C<9=C »O1^= ±±QÃC±c9 PD=#ÔS=C걫±»¼b±T=g»ÒûR P74ÔQ±Ô¹CÊ0„±ÓP;Êê±ý̱¼R± It indicated that ,over the past decades, the economy of Yemen depended »±Pjˆ±ÐAÊd ˆ±_CÊ49E Ê;CÒ Q;ÊcÒM±³RÊ:9EÊ:9 ÊR=ÊEÒ¹ý entirely on oil revenues, which »±RŒÐP;^`Íb80±ÑQ<D7Rê± E;Pê±ÐP;N:2Òœšš ÏCýagCÊ/¯ account for about a third of GDP dCÊ5M±TÊ=gRʱD Ê–ŒaDRÊ d±–d Ê ˆ±_CÊ4±¶»C ³PÊ=bʱ ,noting that the population increase ­PÊÊÊЭÓRÊÊÔQÊʱԱ¼RÊÊPÊÊ=Ê:Ê ÓPÊ;Êê±^7Êê±TÊ=:Ê(±cÊ`Ê1Ê$ has added pressure on the limited nat- Ïb7Э`8ñdÊ ˆ±E=CÊê±´ C4ê± Ð­cʯ–dêCÊ4±d ˆ±Ô¹CÊÊ0Ê„± ural resources of Yemen. dCê±ÃC27±ýŒEÊ= M±_=7±SS4ŒÊ dCê±ÃC2Ê7±_j±b`E:ÊjCN0 T=g»ÓP­aC`˜E¼M±P4dêC4± Э`8ñÒ±R=±bïP

Baghdad-Written by : Hamza Mustafa-Politics in Iraq is not the art of the possible. Rather, Iraqi politics is closer to the art of the impossible, an all-or-nothing game that offers players the chance to either reach the pinnacle of political power, or see their ambitions totally crushed.Since the establishment of the modern state by King Faisal I in 1921, Iraq has witnessed three distinct eras. The first of these was the Iraqi monar- chy (1921-1958) which was dominated by seven-time prime minister Nuri Al-Said. This was followed by the first Iraqi republic (1958-2003) which was completely domi- nated by Saddam Hussein after the Ba’th Party seized power. We are now in the midst of the second Iraqi republic, in which no single individual or group stands out. This era is characterized by one interesting phenomenon, namely that it seems to produce two kinds of political leaders. The first kind were those who were quick to ride in on the backs of American tanks, but soon found themselves marginalized. The best example of this would be Iraqi National Congress leader Ahmed Chalabi. Then there are those who played no prominent role in the opposition during the Saddam-era but arrived on the political scene in post-invasion Iraq to exploit the power vacuum. Iraqi prime min- ister Nuri Al-Maliki is just one such figure. Finally, there’s a man who is in a class of his own. He was involved in the Arabian horse trade during the Saddam-era, but he had no relationship with the former regime except when it passed laws affecting wealthy land-owners. That man is Iraqi Council of Representatives Speaker Osama Al- Nujaifi. The scion of a prominent Mosul family, Nujaifi didn’t face any difficulties in entering the post-2003 Iraqi political arena. Fate, tribalism, or sectarianism drove many Iraqi nationals to seek a role in politics following the US invasion and toppling of Saddam Hussein. However in the case of Nujaifi, his family’s legacy and his per- sonal charisma-after two parliamentary terms and a stint as Minister of Industry- CÊÊ ±RÊÊ_<Ê Ê6­`ʱbÊÊ94`ÊQÊʱ]ÊÒ­ secured him the reputation of being one of the most complex figures on the Iraqi polit- ˜»CQaY6=a:`ab=9 ÃCÊ7j­ cʯ ÓRÊ ­ ³ÛRÊ »¹CÊÒ –Œ©EÊRÊ9 _–ÒRÊ CÊÎÒ®±»cÊ9³RÊÎÒMÒËÛRÊ4 õ&±_=±R¯¤D ical scene.

Rover Sport fans were also calling for more luxury, and the 2014 model mostly complies. A streamlined body, with its demure grille, slashing fender vents, i8b=9¹ϯd descending roof and tapering hull, has a decidedly yacht-like presence; the navy blazer is entirely up to you. That roof can be had in contrasting colors to amplify E;½RE;=<± its “floating” effect over the window glass. A saucily upturned rear end flashes a trapezoid-shaped skid plate and twin exhaust outlets. The Sport grows 2.5 inches longer. More significantly, a seven-inch wheelbase stretch carves out notably larger rear-door openings for easier entry and exit, and adds about an inch more rear knee room. A third-row seat — strictly for children or hostages — is available for the first time, and it power-folds to disappear below the cargo deck. The interior bears the stylish fingerprints of Gerry McGovern, the Land Rover design director who has helped lead the brand to record U.S. sales with well-received models like the Evoque. McGovern adores the minimal approach, tastefully accessorized with a few rich details. And the Rover Sport tries its damndest to emulate the sleek London style of the big Range Rover, which might be described as Burberry on Wheels. McGovern’s visual architecture includes an angled center stack, bookended by satin chrome pillars, that rises to join a sleek, nearly vertical dashboard. Seats `b=9¹ϯdER F6/—´»b68±R are upgraded in style, sculpting and support: In this Sport, you sit in it, rather E;=<±E=R±C<»C= `dgC<;±¶ºb:;± than perch on it.
