Eid Al-adha By: Ibrahim Machiwala Lodhi
The word eid is derived from aud meaning to return. In Islam, it means a recurring happiness. The word adha, the plural of adhat means a sacrifice. On this occasion, all the Muslims who can afford, sacrifice an animal. In the case of a goat or a sheep, one animal is suffices for one household. In the case of a cow or a camel, seven men may be partners. It may be sacrificed on the day of Eid or during the two or three days that follows, called the tashriq days. The animal sacrificed must be free from apparent physical defects, and full-grown (musinna). The goat or sheep should be a year old, the cow two years and the camel five. The skin of the animal must, however, be disposed of in charity.

Abu Aly Alibhai Aziz, Dr., Missionary By: Ibrahim Machiwala
Varas Amir Chand (1837-1911) sprang from a noble family of gupti Ismailis in Punjab. He was employed in a governmental department in Amritsar and retired in 1880. He inherited land from his forefathers, and became one of the most famous landlords in Punjab. In 1882, Imam Aga Ali Shah appointed him Kul Kamadia for Punjab, Frontiers and few regions near Afghanistan. He performed his duties with such marked distinction that during his first visit to Amritsar in 1897, Imam Sultan Muhammad Shah appointed him Mukhi on January 1, 1897 with a title of Varas for Punjab and Frontier province, including the regions lying on the borders of Afghanistan. He also travelled with the Imam in Sialkot between January 2, 1897 and January 11, 1897. Varas Amir Chand visited Bombay several times. His last visit took place in the middle of 1908 and gave valuable and informative statements twice in court during the Haji Bibi Case on July 28 and July 29, 1908. He is also credited to have converted a portion of the depressed class to Ismailism, as well as helping them financially to run their cottage industry.

Ich habe seit einem Monat einen kleinen Welpen Baby. Mein letzter Hund ist leider diesen Winter im hohen Alter gestorben. Der Abschied fiel mir schwer und die Entscheidung mir einen neuen "Lebensgefährten" zu besorgen umso schwerer. Zuerst lehnte ich diesen Gedanken ab und versuchte den Winter "alleine" durchzustehen. Doch bald klopfte das Schicksal an meiner Tür und ich hörte eine Arbeitkollegin, die von Huskys Welpen erzählte, die ein neues Heim wollten. Es dauerte nicht schnell und bald hatte ich einen kleinen süßen Baby Welpen Husky in meiner Hand! Sein Name, Lutz!(read entire article)(posted on: 2008-05-05)
