ABRAJ AL-BAIT The Abraj Al-Bait Towers, also known as the Mecca Royal Hotel Clock Tower, is a
building complex in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. The complex holds several world records, such as the tallest hotel in the world, the
tallest clock tower in the world, the world's largest clock face,and the world's largest building floor area. The complex's hotel
tower has become the second tallest building in the world in 2012, surpassed only by Dubai's Burj Khalifa. The building
complex is meters away from the world's largest mosque and Islam's most sacred site, the Masjid al Haram. The developer
and contractor of the complex is the Saudi Binladin Group, the Kingdom's largest construction company. It was built at the
same place as the former Ajyad Fortress, an old fort of the Ottoman epoch dating from the late 18th century and which was
destroyed in 2002 by the Saudi government in order to begin the building work, sparking global outcry. The tallest tower in
the complex stands as the tallest building in Saudi Arabia, and the tallest and largest hotel in the world, with a height of 601
metres (1,972 feet). Currently it is the second tallest building in the world surpassing Tapei 101 and the fourth tallest
structure in the world. The structure had surpassed Dubai International Airport having the largest floor area of any structure
in the world with 1,500,000 m2 (16,150,000 sq ft) of floorspace. It also surpassed the Emirates Park Towers in Dubai as the
world's tallest hotel. The site of the complex is located across the street to the south from an entrance to the Masjid al
Haram mosque, which houses the Kaaba. To accommodate worshipers visiting the Kaaba, the Abraj Al-Bait Towers has a
large prayer room capable of holding more than 10,000 people. The tallest tower in the complex also contains a five-star
hotel to help provide lodging for the millions of pilgrims that travel to Mecca annually to participate in Hajj. In addition, the
Abraj Al-Bait Towers has a five-story shopping mall (the Abraj Al Bait Mall) and a parking garage capable of holding over a
thousand vehicles. Residential towers house permanent residents while two heliports and a conference center are to
accommodate business travelers. In total, up to 100,000 people could be housed inside the towers. The project uses clock
faces for each side of the hotel tower. The highest residential floor stands at 450 metres (1,480 feet), just below the clocks.
The clock faces are 43 43 m (141 141 ft), the largest in the world. The roof of the clocks is 530 metres (1,740 feet)
above the ground, making them the world's most elevated architectural clocks. A 71-metre-tall spire (233 ft) has been
added on top of the clock giving it a total height of 601 metres (1,972 feet), which makes it the second tallest building in
the world, surpassing Taipei 101 in Taiwan. The tower also includes an Islamic Museum and a Lunar Observation Center
which will also be used to sight the moon during the Holy Months. Building was planned to be 485 meters tall in 2006. In
2009, it was published that the final height will be 601 meters. The complex was built by the Saudi Binladin Group, Saudi
Arabia's largest construction company. The clock tower was designed by the German company Premiere Composite
Technologies, and the clock by the Swiss engineering firm Straintec. According to the Saudi Ministry of Religious
Endowments, the project cost $15 billion. Clock: The hotel tower is topped by a four-faced clock, visible from more than 25
kilometres (16 miles) away, which is the largest clock in the world. The clock house and the spire are 200 meters high, The
clock dwarfs London's Big Ben, once the largest four-faced clock in the world, and the previous title holder, the Allen-
Bradley Clock Tower in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The clock's face is also bigger than the previous record holder, the Cevahir
Mall clock in Istanbul, which has a 36-metre (118-foot) face with 3-metre-high (9.8-foot) digits set in the transparent roof of
the shopping complex. Each of the clock's four faces is 46 metres (151 feet) in diameter and will be illuminated by 2 million
LED lights, with four oriented edges, just above the clock alongside huge Arabic script reading: God is the Greatest on the
north and south faces and on the west and east the Koran. Four golden domes on pillars on all the corners are also present.
Another 21,000 white and green colored lights, the same as the Saudi Flag, fitted at the top of the clock, will flash to signal
Islam's five-times daily prayers, and will be visible as far as 29 kilometres (18 miles) away. On special occasions such as
new year, 16 bands of vertical lights will shoot some 10 kilometres (6.2 miles) up into the sky. The clock's four faces will be
covered with 98 million pieces of glass mosaics. The Saudi coat of arms is displayed at the center of each clock behind the
dials. The minute hand is 22 meters and the hour hand is 17 meters. The minute indicators and the larger hour indicators
which are 11 meters each are there too. An observatory deck is planned at the base of the clock. Elevators will take visitors
up to a observation balcony just beneath the faces, but can still go higher. The spire: The Spire and Crescent of Mecca
Clock Tower. The Mecca Clock Tower is topped by a 93 m tall spire and a crescent. The spire has the black observation pod
at the bottom which contains a lunar gallery, a control tower and the main observation deck. Above the spire is the 23 m
tall golden crescent. The crescent was constructed in Dubai by Premier Composite Technology in April 2011. The crescent is
made of fiberglass-backed mosaic gold, and it weighs up to 35 tons. Peugeot Joseph, the company official, said a team of
five engineers and a hundred workers carried out the project, which cost 90 million United Arab Emirates dirham, and it
took three months to build it. The company has also constructed the Mecca Clock. The Crescent was divided into 10 parts to
move it to Mecca.The crescent was partly assembled on the base of the clock-face to reduce it to 5 parts. Those five parts
were then lifted and installed above the spire from 20 June to 6 July 2011. The minaret and its base have massive
loudspeakers that will emit prayer calls to a distance of seven km while nearly 21,000 lamps will illuminate the surrounding
area to a distance of 30 km. During occasions like Muslim Eids and new Hijri years, a 16-beam light will illuminate an area of
a diameter of around 10 km while 21,000 lamps will beam white and green lights to a distance of 30 km. The light beams
are intended to allow deaf persons or Muslims in far areas to know prayer timings in the western parts of Mecca and nearby
cities. Yet, despite the claimed need for illumination and awareness of prayer timings in discrete areas and portions around
and in Makkah, there are well over 200 existing old mosques in the city; most are frequently attended and therefore well
equipped with Muadhins to call the prayer. Deaf persons are also less likely to view the lightshow unless actively looking for
it, which defeats the purpose; ironically, the light pollution comes at the time [Maghrib] most important for the sky to be
least lit, for naked eye moonsighting purposes.



Afzal sahir
He has been working in Mast Fm 103 radio since 2005...Resilience is the word that comes in the mind when we think
of afzal sahir. We all go through pain, misery and hardships in our life but very few are as courageous as Afzal Saahir
is because he didn$B!G(Bt give up and decided to move forward in life. This guy is a poet, a magician, a healer , a
friend and an ideal of many people in Pakistan and across the globe who understand Punjabi. The meaning and
depth attached with his poetry gives us the glimpse of his dynamic personality.
He started his career in early 90$B!G(Bs without knowing that one day thousands of fans ( specially gi rls) will be
anxiously waiting for his show in order to talk to him for few seconds. The journey which started as an editor at a very
young age, has now taken different forms and now this man is an inspiration as a radio presenter and as a soulful
poet
. It is difficult to say whether he is a good poet or a good RJ, but his role as an RJ has brought him very much closer
to the different classes of population. Students , drivers, housewives, working ladies, old age women and men ,
youngsters and Scholars he is equally popular among all these people. All you have to do is to listen his show once
and then you will get addicted to his voice, then it will become an obligation for you to listen to Saahir in order to sleep
peacefully. This guy is a great story teller and reads the story in such manner that the listener feels that a film is being
played in front of him/her with the complete gravity of the emotions. Afzal has also played an important role in
motivating and introducing young talent through his shows as he encourages young singers to sing in his shows and
also gives some very healthy criticism to the new singers and poets.. Three words that describe this man are
spontaneity , great sense of humor and humbleness. His voice is a combination of softness, a bit of attitude, loads of
sweetness and a touch of harmony. There is nothing like listening to his show "Naal Sajan De Rahiye" in the cold and
foggy nights when there is no other voice but the only existing voice is of Afzal Saahir and his fabulous collect ion of
music and poetry.
It is very difficult to manage to extremes like non stop humor and serious sensible discussions, but Saahir knows how
to do this as at one point in his show he will sound as the most knowledgeable man on this planet and the very
second minute the very funny and witty saahir comes into play.His poetry in itself talks about the bitter realities of life.
He has talked about different things like pain of a women, selfishness, double standards of the society, hypocrisy etc
with such an ease that no other poet of his time is able to do. Well there a huge contradiction when it comes to his
poetry and his smile because if you read his poetry you might think that this man is extremely depressive but on the
other hand his smile is full of life and gives hope to thousands of people worldwide.
