Beginning of Dajjal's Arrival Started Already?

Have you all heard about that new film they call the Jal so they've hijacked the word

from us and they made a film out of it the Jal

The word dajjal in Arabic means the deceiver and there is a difference between

saying something is deceptive and something is a lie.

A lie can get caught out pretty easily or in a little while you can defragment it you can find that person as a 

liar but when you say that something is deceptive then deceptive means that it's mixed with the truth 

you've got truth and false and you start mixing it you start manipulating people to make them

think that something is real but it's not it's really a fake thing and then you say to yourself well if

they were if this is true then this must be true and it takes much longer to find out the

lie when somebody is a deceiver today we call them professional liars

Professional liars and they exist everywhere now what i want to talk to you especially the

young people about is this subhanallah for the dajjal who is called the antichrist this guy who's going to

come out into this world according to what our prophet peace be upon him told us about he said that this guy
that the

jail is going to come out and he is going to deceive people he's going to be a deceiver  and what he's going to
tell 

people first is he's going to tell people that I am jesus christ the son of mary the real messiah but what he's
going to 

be doing is that he's going to be lying about it but you see he's going to mix that with a little bit of truth

he's going to tell them that i am and the prophet peace be upon him did call him

and messiah really means that he's got his eye which he cannot see with the right eye especially it will be

as a prophet which means that his right eye will be it'll be he can't see from it

and his left eye is also deformed but he can see from it and he will call himself messiah he's

not really lying but he's manipulating you he's trying to deceive you and he's got these things which god

gave him that he calls miracles and he gets the jinns to work for him and he tells them i can bring your
parents to
life and he starts you know and there's this long story i don't know if you heard about it about this guy named

daddy which is in sahih muslim that he went to the prophet peace be upon him and they

got lost on their uh ship and then they ended up in a cave and a  temple and then they see this

man who was so huge and he was tied up with chains and then he tells them that i am the messiah

i am Jesus christ and then he says has a man come up and said that he is a prophet and he's from the arabs and
his

people kicked him out of his home and they fought him and he was victorious and they say yes his name is

Muhammad and he says you should follow him you should follow this man so he's telling the truth but at the

same time he's telling lies so he's called the Deja

Now this is the thing i want to talk to you about everybody knows about the dajjal

Everybody's heard about the dajjal

What i want to say to you is this before the dajjal can come out there has to be a preparation

an introduction the stage has to be set for him, a world full of fakeness, a world full of deception,

a world full of  fake religious guys and girls a world full of fake media fake social media

Things appear different to what they really are in reality people think in a fantasy world and make

things that are fantasia world look as if they are real liars look like they're telling the

Truth and truthful people look like they are they're actually lying that's what they think what's been shown to
us a 

long time ago used to be bad or abnormal or wrong. Now it's become normal right and anybody who opposes
it 

they're the ones who look crazy.

Do you know what i'm talking about we live in a world of fakeness right now and Allah has mercy and may
Allah 

have mercy on whoever is saved from it you know a little while ago for example i want the young people to
listen i'm

actually a teacher and i've got students we always talk about these things all the time what are we talking
about

things that in my days they used to be outrageous today they're very normal one thing for example students
ask me a
question can i have a girlfriend can i have a boyfriend is does islam allow it and i'm thinking

to myself isn't this meant to be so obvious that you can't really you know there's no such thing as bill for
boyfriend 

and girlfriend outside of marriage but they ask about it sincerely really thinking there's nothing wrong with it

what's the problem with having a boyfriend girlfriend what's wrong with that you know nothing wrong
everybody 

does it what used to be wrong and i'm even talking about the non-muslims in the 1950s it was very normal to
say

that i won't you know be with a guy or a girl until we're actually married non-muslims used to say that and
then

slowly as time went on it became normal  but what i saw about that is that it was normalized

and i'm talking about 20 years ago it was so normalized from a young age and it's considered to

be cute cute how nice don't worry about the stds that are going to happen later on ,don't worry about abuse
that's 

going to happen later on, don't worry about how they're going to objectify women later on, don't worry about
you 

know a man feeling that he just you know focuses on what he wants don't worry about girls not knowing what
the

heck is going on on social media i keep showing my body and my images and these guys keep using and
abusing

and they don't really value me you know this is what's happening guys

i don't mean to be sarcastic but this is the truth. The fake world i get my students and I talk to them

and the stuff that i said i'm talking about year eight year nine you have your 89 here yeah eight year

nine they're about 14 15 years old 16 years old they have no idea and when we tell these girls you know

look for example they say to me on social media there was um you know this guy he likes me

he likes me they think it's all cute and i say to them he doesn't like you amo he doesn't like

you what he likes about you is that it's easy for him to see what he wants to see of you she said yeah it's true
he 

wants me to take off my hijab and i did i go why did you do that i said because he gives me attention you

know and he loves me wants to marry my guy's 15 years old man what's he going to marry and i said now
if and i had to say their language by the way just to try and make them understand like if i took your head off

 and to put your friend's head on your body it's not going to matter it's not going to make any difference for
him 

because he wants one thing and they said but i can't believe that you know they think like that

i said that's what the world has made you think it's internet stuff and now we need to address these

issues when a long time ago they were abnormal now they're so normal you're crazy if you say that you want
to get 

married that's what the world we live in now but girlfriend boyfriend that's fine it's become so normalized 

brothers and sisters that's just something very small there are other matters that have become so normal that
in the 

past for thousands and thousands of years they were wrong and i fear for this new generation if they are not
aware of 

what actually what brainwashing is happening to their brains what we call it opera um we call it

classical conditioning i'll give you another examplesocial media today you all agree that it's fake right

fake you look at a person let's say a brother wants to know a sister or a sister wants to get married to a brother

the first place they go on is facebook all right that's fine but you know what it only tells you about 20 percent

about your life this is what experts say but they believe it and everybody shows their highlights on

social media and everybody thinks that everybody's living the life except me i'm missing out

and that's why we have so much depression anxiety you know post-traumatic stress disorders and all

that because our expectations are right up here but it doesn't even exist so when people for example get
married

they have these high expectations from what they've seen on social media over and over and over

again and then they feel that they've been betrayed so they end up in divorce and they feel that they have been

betrayed and hurt why because of the images that are you know over and over again in our facesas if it's that's
what 

it's supposed to be but it's not real you know i mean our hormones and our egos and our dopamine levels you
know 

this drug thing that comes out of our brain every time somebody gives us a like or somebody gives us a little 

comment you know it makes us feel happy for about 10 seconds and then we want another one and another
one and 
another one we need to be aware of these things that we are living in a world of fakeness and

that's why we can't find happiness in fact there's no such thing as happiness supposed to be content you.

What is Eid Ul Adha? | How do we celebrate Eid Ul Adha? | Why do we celebrate Eid Ul Adha?

Today I will tell you all about

What is Eid Ul Adha?

How do we celebrate Eid Ul Adha?

Why do we celebrate Eid Ul Adha?

So what Eid Ul Adha literally means?

 The Eid of a sacrifice which is celebrated by Muslims all over the
world Muslims sacrifice an animal on this day

Eid Ul Adha is the second most important Islamic festival in the Islamic

calendar

The animals that can be slaughtered on Eid Ul Adha are goats, sheep, cows, and
camels

Now how we celebrate Eid Ul Adha?

In Muslim countries, Eid Ul Adha is a public holiday that involves animal
sacrifice

known as Qurbani, prayers and family gatherings

The meat from the animals we sacrifice is divided into three equal parts

One for family

One for relatives

And the third one is for the poor people in our society, to make Allah happy
and that is the real purpose of Qurbani. Eid Ul Adha is celebrated on the 10th
Zil hajj every year based on the Islamic calendar in order to offer sacrifice
Muslims buy an animal and take good care of the animal thus they get attached
to it and by this, they learn compassion and also learn that animals must be
treated with affection and care and then for the will of Allah

They sacrifice the animal they get attached to.

Now the question is why we celebrate Eid Ul Adha?

Prophet Ibrahim (A.S) had a dream where he was being asked by Allah (SWT)

to sacrifice his son Ismail (A.S) to testify that whether he can sacrifice

his most beloved thing for the will of Allah

Prophet Ibrahim (A.S) succeeded the test and at the final moment he closed

his eyes and when he was about to sacrifice his son an angel replaced his son
with a lamp ultimately Allah got happy with Ibrahim (A.S) and his sacrifice
was accepted

This act of sacrificing a sheep is copied by Muslims all over the world today on
Eid so every year Muslims sacrifice in remembrance of the sunnah of Ibrahim.

After the Eid prayers, Muslims hug each other and say Eid Mubarak, and
celebrate eid by sacrificing their animals

so Eid Mubarak to all of you who are reading this article.

Thank you so much for reading this article.

Two Reasons Why we are still single?

The common-sense explanation for long-term singlehood directs the blame
firmly outwards, it isolates the problem to one of mechanics: 
one is still single because one hasn’t, perhaps on account of having moved to a
vast and anonymous new city, been invited to enough parties, or because the
constant requirement to fly to the Singapore office leaves no time for the right
sort of socializing, or because one is holed up in a remote village high in the
mountains connected to the more densely populated lowlands only by an
irregular bus service. 

These may be solid enough reasons, but when the problems persist over an
extended period, their power to explain our situation weakens. Without
anything remotely persecutory or unkind being intended by this, one is forced
to cast around for psychological rather than procedural explanations. The
problem must lie in our minds rather than in the world.

And in the recesses of these minds, two issues

– diametrical yet complimentary – can often be identified: one is suffering

from an excess of self-hatred. Or from an excess of self-love. 

Self-hatred is the more poignant of the pair. On being approached by

someone, however initially attractive and competent they might be, we begin
to wonder why they should be so naive, so desperate, and so weak as to be
drawn to someone like us. When we are inadequately convinced of our own
likeability, the attentions of another person must forever seem illegitimate
and peculiar and reflect poorly on their donor. 

Love feels like a gift we haven’t earned, don’t deserve – and must therefore
take care eventually to throw away. We might, under the pressure of self-
hatred, accuse our admirer of naivety. The only possible reason they can have
to approve of us is that they are poor judges of character. That is why they
have missed all the more disturbed and darker aspects of us. They like us only
because they are blind – and therefore a

little stupid. However, because they are bound to spot their error eventually,
it is surely wiser to run away before we are exposed and abandoned. We end
up alone because, despite our longing for affection, we don’t in essence feel
there are any good and lasting reasons why anyone would properly see us and
like us. We may also, in the face of the gifts, text messages, or hugs we
receive, start to feel that our admirer is, to a sickening degree, needy. 
We feel repulsed by their need when we don’t see ourselves as appropriate
targets of anyone’s need; we reject their nascent dependence because
somewhere inside, we are sure that we are not people to depend upon. And
yet, of course, none of these specters need to be real in the world outside our
touchingly troubled minds. The person who is keen on us is almost certainly
not naive. 

They can no doubt see us for what we are: they have noticed many of our less
admirable sides. 

It is just that they don’t consider these fatal, because they know that being not
quite right is what all of us are and is no barrier to a mature relationship. They
know we’re not exactly who we think we should be, but they also grasp that
this doesn’t place anyone in the category of the damned. 

We might be a bit perverted, a little silly, and not as nice as we make out – but
so is everyone else. It’s not that they are naive about us; we’re ultimately
naive about them. They know that every human has shadow sides. They’ve
made peace with theirs (probably as a result of a fortunate childhood); they
would like us to make peace with ours. 

Ahead of us, they understand that a person can be ordinarily imperfect – and

worthy of being cherished. Then, at the other end of the spectrum, comes
excessive self-love, which really means a hesitation around fully
acknowledging what a challenging proposition one is – and therefore how
much we should rightly be grateful for when someone, anyone with an
ordinary share of strengths and weaknesses look our way. 

Perhaps because of the legacy of doting and forgivably biased parents, we are
operating with an unhelpful sense of how lucky someone might be to end up
in our arms. 

After having been alone for a long time, we may also have lost the knack of
spotting what peculiar, demanding, and compulsive people we are.  With no
one to hold up a mirror, we have forgotten to give due weight to the rage, the
anxiety, and the moments of vindictiveness inside us. At the same time, we
are traveling the world with our imaginations switched off, imagination
defined here as the capacity to look with energy, compassion, and curiosity
into the face and character of another person in order to search out what
might be desirable and good therein.

What happens when we look without imagination?

Well we meet someone quite nice, but their nose is too big... "erm, no".

Or they are an Engineer, Engineers are unsophisticated. "No".

Maybe they are rich? "Rich people are snobs, no."

Perhaps the hair is thinning, "bald people aren't our thing. no." or they have a
strong accent? "no".

Imagination means sensitivity to the less obvious things; one scan past the
surface and wonders about what might be worthy inside a fellow human,
whom it would – of course – always be so easy (yet ultimately so unrewarding)
to criticize.

What happens when we look with imagination? We meet someone, they look
conventional and formal but we think they could turn out to have playful and
wild sides too.

Or they look mousy but also maybe they are very whitty around people they
know well.

Or they do have a slightly wonky nose but their eyes are very tender and their
lips supprisingly sensual.

Or they do have a job that sounds unimpressive but their interests are very
broad and they might be the ideal person to go around an antiques market
with.

To awaken the dormant faculty of the imagination, we might more regularly –

perhaps in the street or on the train to work – look at the faces around us,
especially the less distinguished or obviously sculpted ones, and ask
ourselves what there could be to delight in. There is always going to be
something, for we were all once love-worthy children and remain as much in
our depths.
Take an experiment. if you were forced to love one of these candidates,
choose your favorite gender. What might there be to fall in love with?

Practicing imagination is not a compromise, it is the key to love, for we all

have to be considered imaginatively in order to be tolerated and forgiven over
the long term by anyone. By thinking imaginatively, we’re not being disloyal to
the true ambition of love; we’re stumbling on the essence of what love rightly
has to involve. 

There will always be practical reasons why it proves hard to find a partner. But
if we have worked on our levels of self-love and attenuated the ravages of
self-hatred, an absence of parties or a difficult bus ride to the next town need
never condemn us long-term to a life devoid of tenderness and connection. 

How to keep a relationship going?

  
     How can you tell whether a relationship is going to last the course - or whether it’s

    doomed to founder? What’s the difference between fragile and solid couples? Here are

   some of the things to look out for:

      Over-optimism about Relationships Fragile couples tend, paradoxically, to be  very hopeful         
    about love. They associate happiness with conflict-free unions. They do not expect,

once they have found the person they unwisely see as The One, ever to need to squabble,

storm out of a room or feel unhappy for the afternoon.

When trouble emerges, as it inevitably does, they do not greet it as a sign that love is
progressing as it should; rather as alarming evidence that their relationship may be illegitimate
and fundamentally flawed.

Their hopes tire them for the patient tasks of diplomatic negotiation and routine maintenance.

Out of touch with Pain Fragile couples tend not to be good detectives

of their own sufferings. They may be both unhappy and yet unsure as to the actual causes

of their dissatisfactions; they know that something is wrong in their unions, but they

can’t easily trace the catalysts. They can’t zero in on the way that it was the lack of

trust in them around money that rankles or that it has been their behavior towards a
demanding youngest child that has been hurting. They lash out in vague or inaccurate
directions, their attacks either unfairly general or unconvincingly specific.

Shame A shamed person has fundamental doubts about

their right to exist: somewhere in the past, they have been imbued with an impression that

they do not matter very much, that their feelings should be ignored, that their happiness is

not a priority, that their words do not count. Once they are in a couple, shamed people hurt

like anyone else, but their capacity to turn their hurt into something another person can

understand, and be touched by, is recklessly weak. Shamed people will sulk rather than

speak, hide rather than divulge, feel secretly wretched rather than candidly complain. It

is frequently very late, far too late, by the time shamed people finally let their lover

know more about the nature of their desperation.

Excessive Anxiety Complaining well requires an impression that

not everything depends on the complaint being heard perfectly. Were the lesson to go wrong,

were the other to prove intransigent, one could survive and take one’s love elsewhere.

Not everything is at stake in an argument. The other hasn’t ruined one’s life. One,

therefore, doesn’t need to scream, hector, insist, or nag. One can deliver a complaint

with some of the nonchalance of a calm teacher who wants an audience to learn but can bear

it if they don’t; one could always say what one has on one’s minds tomorrow, or the

next day.

Excessive Pride It takes an inner dignity not to mind too

much about having to level complaints around things that could sound laughably ‘small’

or that leaves one open to being described as petty or needy. With too much pride and

fear, it can become unbearable to admit that one has been upset since lunch because they

didn’t take one’s hand on a walk, or that one wishes so much that they would be readier

to hug one last thing at night. One has to feel quite grown-up inside not to be offended

by one’s own more childlike appetites for reassurance and comfort. It is an achievement
to know how to be strong about one’s vulnerability. One may have said, rather too many times,

from behind a slammed door, in a defensive tone, ‘No, nothing is wrong whatsoever.

Go away, when secretly longing to be comforted and understood like a weepy, upset child.

Hopelessness about Dialogue Fragile couples often come together with few

positive childhood memories of conversations working out: early role models may simply

have screamed and then despaired of one another. They may never have witnessed
disagreements eventually morphing into mutual understanding and sympathy. They would
deeply love to be understood, but they can bring precious few resources to the task of making
themselves

so.

None of these factors mean a couple will split up, but they are generators of the states

of emotional disconnection that can eventually break two people apart. Outwardly, things

may seemingly be well. A couple may have an interesting social life, some lovely children,

a new apartment. But a more judicious analysis will reveal an unexpected degree of risk.

The good news is that knowing a little about the risk factors can help us identify them

in good time - and, with the help of good advice, fix them

while there is still time.

Eid al-Fitr | Definition, Meaning, Celebration, & Facts | learn with kamz rajput

let's start our topic with what is Eid-ul Fitr. It literally means festival or feast in Arabic

There are two major ease in the Islamic calendar per year Eid ul Fitr earlier in the year and
Eid ul Adha later. Eid ul Fitr and Eid ul Adha both are celebrated for very different reasons

Eid ul Fitr  is a three-day celebration that take place at the end of the holy month of
Ramadan at the start of Shawwal the 10th month of the Islamic calendar

Now what does Eid ul Fitr means?

Eid ul Fitr also called the festival of breaking the fast is the religious holy day celebrated
by Muslims worldwide that marks the end of the month of Ramadan. 

This religious Eid is the only day in the month of Shawwal during which Muslims are not
permitted to fast.

Now the question is why is Eid ul Fitr celebrated? 

and the answer is a very important festival in the Islamic calendar and was started by
Prophet Muhammad (SAW) himself and is celebrated by Muslims worldwide to mark the
end of Ramadan. 

Eid ul Fitr is celebrated following the successful month of abstaining from both food and

drink. Muslims not only celebrate the end of fasting but also thank Allah for the
Quran which was first revealed towards the end of Ramadan and for the strength Allah has
given them to exercise self-control throughout the previous month of fasting there are some
rituals about Eid ul Fitr with people mostly follow traditionally Eid ul Fitr begins at sunset
on the night of first tightening of the recent moon and Muslims call that night as "Chaand
Raat"

 
"Chaand Raat" is a time of celebration when families and friends gather in
open areas at the end of the last day of Ramadan to support the new moon the very first
thing which is performed on the "Chaand Raat" is to raise the person who sat on Aitakaaf
for the last 10 days.

Some people spend the last 10 days of Ramadan in Aitakaaf worshipping Allah. Once the
moon is sighted people wish each other Chaand Raat Mubarak.

Women and girls decorate their hands with mehndi and henna and desserts are prepared for
the next day of eid. Young boys and girls with families and friends move towards markets
and shopping malls to purchase stuff for Eid.

People from all age groups come out in large crowds to celebrate the Chaand Raat in
Pakistan. Girls mostly buy bangles clothes, eid matching sandals and apply mehndi on
hands.

Zakat ul fitr or Fitrana is a charity donation which must be made before eid prayers

as this is distributed among the neediest to ensure that they can take part in eid festivities

In many countries with large Muslim populations Eid ul Fitr is a national

holiday, schools, offices, and businesses are closed so family friends, and neighbors can
enjoy the celebrations together

Now how do Muslims celebrate Eid ul Fitr?

 

The Eid prayer is performed early morning in congregation in open areas like fields

community centers or mosques after the prayer is completed, worshipers embrace each other
and say eid Mubarak or blessed eid to wish each other goodwill.

After eid prayers family and friends get together and enjoy eating desserts and a
wide variety of foods that's why this Eid is also known as "Meethi Eid"
 

People also visit parks and picnic sports with their families. Adults usually give children
and young people money or gifts on Eid and Muslims call it " EIDI"

People visit their relatives and neighbors to wish them, Eid.

Do comment us on how do you celebrate your Eid?

What makes you a good teacher? What makes you great

What makes a good teacher great?

I've collected 26,000 responses to this question, in eight different schools, from the
poorest schools in Los Angeles to suburban schools in Texas, to elite private
schools abroad.

And after 24 years of teaching students, I'm still perplexed by this question.

Today, I'm going to teach you the lessons I learned from those thousands of
students, and learn what I found out from them if we just listen to students.

The thing about it is that during my time of asking kids this question, I realized that
we don't ask this question for a particular reason: schools are afraid.

Based on fear, they don't really want to know what kids think. 

Partially because they don't think kids will take it seriously. I'm going to share with
you one of the most profound quotes, answers to this question that I've ever
received.

 
[A great teacher eats apples] 

Now, I know what you're thinking. 

Doesn't this prove my point?

"Great teachers eat apples." 

When I first saw this, I dismissed it as silliness, but it appeared again and again. So
I thought, "There's got to be something to this, but what are they trying to tell me?"

So one day, I decided I would start eating apples. 

I ate them in the morning, at lunch, during class, in the hall. Kids began to give me
apples. They'd see me eating them and say, "You're eating an apple!"

"I know!"

They would smile, and I would smile back. It wasn't until I understood that kids
wanted to see me as somebody willing to receive a gift from them, that the apple
was a symbol for our relationship. There was goodness in that and trust. But for a
long time, I wasn't listening and I hadn't understood this.

[A great teacher is a chill]

They have their own language. 

When they say, "A great teacher is a chill," what they really mean is: "Don't take it
too seriously. Be calm in all situations. Don't get overwhelmed."

They have a way of speaking to us about what they really want to tell us, 

but we have to listen. I'm the father of two grown kids. 

They're out of school now and in college. But when they were at home and they
were teenagers, I had to learn a whole new language. When they would come home
from school, I might ask them: "How was your day?" and they would say, "Fine," 

which usually meant: "It was not bad. It was pretty good. Nothing happened
eventfully. I probably learned something. Maybe I didn't." But if they came home and
said, "Fine," what they meant was: "It wasn't really great, but don't ask me, because
you wouldn't understand anyway."
If I asked them how their day was and they said "OK," what they were trying to tell
me was: "It wasn't good at all, and you should probably ask me more questions, but
don't expect me to answer."

Kids have their own language; they have their own way of thinking. 

They want us to think like them and understand what's inside of their head. They
have so many ways of thinking that things are great. They want us to see their world
inside of them.

But they don't want us to act like them; they want us to be calm and protect them
and keep them safe. Kids have a way of communicating, and adults just haven't
spent the time listening. But what if we did?

What if we really listen deeply to students?

One of the things I noticed after all the years of collecting these responses is that
there are patterns that emerge. When I asked the question of what makes a good
teacher great, 

oftentimes I heard,

 "A great teacher loves to teach."

70 percent of the time, the quote or the answer that followed was: 

"A great teacher loves to learn."

The reason this is significant is they don't see this happening.

They don't see teachers learning in front of them. They see them teaching, but they
wish they would learn along with them. Think about it.

Principals hire teachers to be content experts, to have all of the knowledge, not to
be learners. But what if they did? What if you showed up in the classroom, and the
teacher had something prepared, said, "I don't know exactly what we're going to do
today, but I can't wait to learn with you." Or that they saw their teacher
struggle through something they didn't actually know and then eventually discover
the answer. Kids want to be inspired by the idea that learning is important.  But they
don't see it in schools.
 

[A great teacher isn't a teacher]

When I saw this quote: "A great teacher isn't a teacher,"

I actually was a little bit offended.

 "What do you mean?! I'm a teacher!"

They're like, "We know."

What they were trying to tell me is: a great teacher isn't in the classroom.

Think about it.Think about a time that you have some enduring understanding, 

a time when you learned something that you still remember and you use to this
day, like throwing a baseball or riding a bike.

I remember learning to ride a bike from my mom when I was five years old. She took
off the training wheels of my bike, got behind me, and began to push.

And we ran, and we ran, until she finally let go, and I began to ride a bike. That's
what I did; that's how I learned to ride a bike. I can still ride a bike to this day from
that moment.

But can you imagine if I tried to learn to bike from my mom in a classroom,

what it would look like?

[Copy this Bike riding 101]

"Son, first, you need to learn all the parts of a bike. There are the pedals and the
crank, and there's a chain that turns the wheel. You have to have a significant
force; once the force has enough momentum, you can keep your balance. That's
how a bike works.

I want you to learn all the parts, be able to label them, and draw them. 

Then you're going to learn and write a research paper about the history of bike
riding.
All the important elements, the adventure, the development of bikes. 

And at the end of that, you're going to take a final examination.

If you pass and get an A, you can ride a bike.

At five years old, I think I would've said, 

"Never mind, I'll just walk."

This is exactly what we do to children.We put them in a classroom and tell them,  

"This is what I want you to learn. It's important. Do it." And kids know that it's not
true, that we don't really value learning this way. So no wonder they're disruptive, or
bored, or disengaged. Kids want us to be teachers that aren't teachers.

I want to tell you a story about Yvette.

"A great teacher understands that they have a life outside of school."

They really do. They want us to know that their school life is way more different than
the life outside of school. I just thought, "Well, how hard is your life? Your job is to
do school; my job is to teach."

Yvette was a tough student, She was feisty, and she had an infamous reputation.  

She walked around with a jacket to prove it. Whenever she walked around, the kids
would follow. She would come in and sit in the front row and lean just so that she
can have eye contact to intimidate me.She would call me "mister" and not even use
my full name. 

When she'd get up to go to the bathroom, all the girls would follow. Eventually, I
learned from Yvette what she needed to learn. And I thought I became pretty good
at what I was doing.

 
I noticed one day, she stopped turning in her homework. She had become a great
leader in the classroom: she turned in her homework, she participated in class; she
actually was quite good. So when this happened, I was surprised. So I went up to
her and said, "Yvette, I'm very disappointed in you." She said, "I know mister; I'm
sorry. “I expect it turned in tomorrow." Tomorrow came, and just a few sheets of
unfinished work were turned in. I also went up to her and said, "Yvette, this is
disappointing."

She said, "I normally do my homework in the bathroom 

because it's the quietest place in my house, but this week the electricity was turned
off, and it's dark in there. I had a candle, but it burned out. And I'm sorry."

She gazed down, not her prideful self. 

I had missed the point. I had not listened when she said, "I'm trying, mister." I heard
the words, but I didn't listen.

Great teachers notice when there's a struggle. They don't make assumptions about
what kids can and cannot do. They wait and watch, and they rescue them when
they're stuck. Good teachers hear them, but they don't listen.

I'll never forget Yvette, and I'm grateful because whenever I see an answer from a
student like that, I remember her, and I listen.

[A great teacher sings]

This was the most perplexing answer I think I ever received. 

It happened every year for ten years; at least one student would put this.

"A great teacher sings." 

What are they talking about? I can't sing. So I started thinking, "Wait a second.
What do they mean?" It wasn't until Danny turned it in as one of his responses. He
was the class clown. You know he was the one that when we took the class
picture, he put ear fingers behind your head. He would make faces at me during
lectures so I would laugh.
Everything was a joke to Danny. 

So, when he turned in his responses, and they were all serious and actually really
good, I was surprised when this showed up in the middle. But I knew there was
something to it; I just didn't know what. 

So the next day, I put the agenda on the board, listing all the activities of the day,
the expectations, and the homework. And instead of actually reading them, very
seriously, I sang, in an operatic style, big as I could.

The eyes of the students were wide, their mouths dropped. 

But you know what happened at the end of that?

I expected pointing and laughing. 

But the classroom erupted in cheers and applause. There was a standing ovation. I
could not believe it.

At the end of class, they walked out, gave me high fives and handshakes, 

and here came Danny.

He walked in, and he leaned in, and patted me on the shoulder, and said, 

"I told you a great teacher sings."

Great teachers make themselves humble before their students. 

They take risks. They put aside their fear to try. They trust that they are going to be
supported if they fail. But they don't see this; they see experts remember?

Content experts.

What if we hire teachers? not to be deep under standers of content, knowledge

keepers, but deep understanders of students?

How our schools would change and transform? 

But it's no wonder students don't care or that teachers don't really listen. Because
they have never been taught.
But what if we did listen?

You see, we spend three years of a student's life, teaching students to read. About

12 years of those students' lives, teaching them to write. Maybe if they're lucky, they
get a semester or half a year learning to public speak.But they get virtual zero years
of formal listening instruction.

Zero.

Think about it.

When was the last time you were at a dinner party, and someone asked a question:
"So what do you do for a living?" and the response was, "Oh, I'm a listening teacher.

I teach advanced listening at the high school events, listening communications, or

beginning listener for elementary?" We don't hear this. 

Because we just don't believe that in schools it's important, though in the world,

listening is one of the number one skills essential for business and life. 

And we just don't teach it.

We need to listen to our students. 

In our classrooms is the future. The Maya Angelou, the Mother Theresas, the Elon
Musks of the world. And can you imagine if we took the time to ask those students,
"What would make a good teacher great?" and then we actually listened,

we could transform schools and education.

Thank you.
How did Hitler rise to power?
How did Adolf Hitler, a tyrant who orchestrated one of the largest genocides in
human history, rise to power in a democratic country? 

The story begins at the end of World War I. With the successful Allied advance in
1918, Germany realized the war was unwinnable and signed an armistice ending
the fighting.

As its imperial government collapsed, civil unrest and worker strikes spread across
the nation. Fearing a Communist revolution, major parties joined to suppress the
uprisings, establishing the parliamentary Weimar Republic.

One of the new government's first tasks was implementing the peace treaty
imposed by the Allies.In addition to losing over a tenth of its territory and
dismantling its army, Germany had to accept full responsibility for the war and
pay reparations, debilitating its already weakened economy.

All this was seen as a humiliation by many nationalists and veterans.They wrongly
believed the war could have been won if the army hadn't been betrayed by
politicians and protesters.

For Hitler, these views became obsession, and his bigotry and paranoid delusions
led him to pin the blame on Jews. His words found resonance in a society with
many anti-Semitic people. By this time, hundreds of thousands of Jews had
integrated into German society, but many Germans continued to perceive them
as outsiders.

After World War I, Jewish success led to ungrounded accusations of subversion

and war profiteering. It cannot be stressed enough that these conspiracy
theories were born out of fear, anger, and bigotry, not fact.

Nonetheless, Hitler found success with them. When he joined a small nationalist

political party, his manipulative public speaking launched him into its
leadership and drew increasingly larger crowds.
Combining anti-Semitism with populist resentment, the Nazis denounced both
Communism and Capitalism as international Jewish conspiracies to destroy
Germany.

The Nazi party was not initially popular. After they made an unsuccessful attempt
at overthrowing the government, the party was banned, and Hitler jailed for
treason.

But upon his release about a year later, he immediately began to rebuild the
movement. And then, in 1929, the Great Depression happened. It led to American
banks withdrawing their loans from Germany, and the already struggling German
economy collapsed overnight.

Hitler took advantage of the people's anger, offering them convenient scapegoats

and a promise to restore Germany's former greatness. Mainstream parties proved
unable to handle the crisis while left-wing opposition was too fragmented by
internal squabbles. And so some of the frustrated public flocked to the
Nazis, increasing their parliamentary votes from under 3% to over 18% in just two
years.

In 1932, Hitler ran for president, losing the election to decorated war hero
General von Hindenburg. But with 36% of the vote, Hitler had demonstrated the
extent of his support. 

The following year, advisors and business leaders convinced Hindenburg to

appoint Hitler as Chancellor, hoping to channel his popularity for their own
goals. Though the Chancellor was only the administrative head of parliament,

Hitler steadily expanded the power of his position. While his supporters formed
paramilitary groups and fought protestors in the streets. 

Hitler raised fears of a Communist uprising and argued that only he could restore
law and order. Then in 1933, a young worker was convicted of setting fire to the
parliament building. Hitler used the event to convince the government to grant
him emergency powers. Within a matter of months, freedom of the press was
abolished, other parties were disbanded, and anti-Jewish laws were passed.
Many of Hitler's early radical supporters were arrested and executed, along with
potential rivals, and when President Hindenburg died in August 1934, it was clear
there would be no new election.

Disturbingly, many of Hitler's early measures didn't require mass repression. His

speeches exploited people's fear and ire to drive their support behind him and
the Nazi party.

 Meanwhile, businessmen and intellectuals, wanting to be on the right side of

public opinion, endorsed Hitler. They assured themselves and each other that his
more extreme rhetoric was only for show.

 Decades later, Hitler's rise remains a warning of how fragile democratic

institutions can be in the face of angry crowds and a leader willing to feed their
anger and exploit their fears.

Israel Palestine Conflict history

Hello, friends!
1993 was the year when Israel and Palestine were very close to drafting a peaceful solution.
But what happened after it that the 
situation worsened to the extent that
today there is a war between them?
If we want to understand today's crisis properly, we need to know the history first.
This is why, in today's video, let's get to know the detailed history between the two countries.
How did the country Israel came to be?
And how did the conflict between Israel and Palestine begin?
Our story begins thousands of years ago.
You must've heard about how terribly Hitler had treated the Jews.
But do you know, the atrocities against Jews began thousands of years ago. 
It is said that Jesus Christ was born into a Jewish family. And some Christians believe that some Jews wanted to
crucify Jesus Christ.
This is a belief from an ideology 
that remained among the Christians for several years, decades, and even centuries.
And when the crusades happened around a thousand year ago, 
Christians killed the Jews in large numbers.
At that time, many rumors were being circulated against the Jews 
that they drink the blood of Christian children,
or that they use the blood for religious rituals. 
Because of these rumors, there was rampant hatred against the Jews.
The hate that the Jews had to bear 
hardly any religion had to bear that in the last thousand years.
After the 1800s, this hatred towards the Jews was not only because of religious reasons 
but also because the Jews were being seen as a different ethnicity as well. Because of all these reasons, till the late
1800s, Jews living around the world began feeling that no country accepts them as their own.
If they wanted to live peacefully, they would need to create their own country. 
To create a Jewish country.
There was an Austro-Hungarian journalist named Theodor Herzl.
He started a new political movement in his 1896 pamphlet. Zionism. He said that the Jews should get their separate
country. At the time this wasn't a new idea.
Since the 1870s, several organizations were calling themselves Lovers of Zion. 
They were already propagating this idea. Because of these reasons, in 1881, the first large-scale migration of Jews
was seen in the Palestine area.
The Jews built many permanent settlements in the area and started living there.
Why did they choose the Palestine area?
Because this was a very holy area for them. 
Jerusalem is the holiest place for the Jews. Do remember that there was no Israel, Gaza, or the West Bank at that
time. The whole area was Palestine. That fell under the Ottoman empire.
Under the Ottoman empire, the Christians, Muslims, and Jews lived together peacefully, more or less. 
There were no conflicts. One reason behind it can be that most of the land was empty. There were very few
settlements on the land. And the population was very little in the area.
Now we fast forward to the year 1915. 
World War 1 began. The British, French, and Arab revolutionaries were fighting the Ottoman empire. The British
play a clever hand here. They tell the Arab revolutionaries that in return for their support in defeating the Ottoman
empire, they will give them the Palestine area.
And the Arab revolutionaries were fighting to create a unified Arab country.
The Arab revolutionaries wanted one Arab country from Syria to Yemen.
The Britishers promise the same thing to the Jews.
That they will help them to create their own Jewish country near Palestine.
Why do they do this?
So that they could appease the American Jews. 
And could gain influence on American politics. But in reality, the British made a secret deal with the French. As
soon as the Ottoman Empire fell after World War 1, Britain and France divided the Middle East area between
themselves.
The British took over the control of the Palestine region.
1918-1948 the entire Palestine area was under the control of the British Government. At this time in Germany,
Hitler gets political power. And the Jews are massacred in millions in a genocide.
The Jews flee from Hitler-controlled Europe to different countries to save themselves. Some get refuge in
America. But many of these Jews go to Palestine. Britain allows them to enter Palestine initially. But later, they start
stopping them from coming to Palestine. Because of this, an Israeli Nationalist Movement starts in Palestine.
At the same time, around the 1940s, Palestine Nationalist Movement had also begun. 
And the Palestinians were also demanding their own country.
In 1948 the British Government realises that enough's enough.
And that they cannot remain there longer. They left the Jewish to form a Jewish country and the Palestinians to form
their own country. They accepted that they could not do that and ceded the responsibility to the United Nations. The
British then leave Palestine.
United Nations comes up with a partition plan.
About the area to be allotted for creating a Jewish country and a Palestinian country.
In 1947 the United Nations Partition Plan is released.
In the plan, the United Nations keeps 57% of the area for the Jewish country And 43% of the area for the Arab-
Palestinian country.
Jerusalem is a very historically important area for three religions, 
Jews, Christians, and Muslims. So the United Nations decided that Jerusalem would be under international
control. The Jews accept this plan and name their new country Israel.
Here, the Israel country is born in 1948.
But unfortunately, the other neighboring Arab countries weren't pleased with this plan at all. They believed that the
plan was basically the Britisher's way of continuing their colonialism.
So they start a war against Israel. 
Saying that they will not allow the Jews to take any part of the land. This war is named the First Arab-Israeli war of
1948. And this is a very historic war in and of itself.
More than 5 countries were fighting against a tiny new country. 
The Jews living in Israel knew that five years ago they had seen how the rest of the world treated them. How Hitler
had treated them. And then all the Arab countries were starting a war against them. If they didn't fight to survive
then, they wouldn't be able to survive ever. So to save themselves, they fought with all they had. And very
surprisingly, Israel won the war.
Defeating all these countries. 
After the war ends in 1949, the areas that were supposed to be Palestine's according to the UN Partition Plan, Israel
occupied several of these areas.
The Gaza Strip area went to Egypt. 
And the West Bank area went to Jordan.
This meant that the Palestinians did not have a country any longer. 
More than 700,000 Palestinians had to leave their homes and become refugees in Arab countries. This is named the
1948 Palestinian Exodus.
After this, in 1967, the Second Arab-Israeli War takes place. 
This war lasts for six days. And Israel wins this easily too. Israel occupies the Gaza Strip and the West Bank
area and this large Egyptian Peninsula gets occupied by Israel after this war.
Palestinians want their own country. 
For this reason, in 1964, Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) was founded. Initially, their aim is through armed
struggle. To use weapons to get their own country.
In the beginning, they also wanted that Israel should cease to exist. 
Because of this, the USA and Israel declare it to be a terrorist organization. But one thing that needs to be
remembered is if you see them from the perspective of one person they'll seem like a terrorist organization and from
the perspective of another, they're revolutionaries who want freedom for their country.
In 1973, the Third Arab-Israeli War begins 
but it isn't very important for our story because, after that, nothing changes much.
But in 1974, PLO gets officially recognized by the United Nations General Assembly. 
To be the representative of the Palestinian people.
In 1979, the peace talks between Egypt and Israel is successful 
And Egypt becomes the first Arab country to recognize Israel as a country that exists there. After the Peace-Talks,
the entire Egyptian peninsula area captured by Israelis returned to Egypt by Israel.
The Egyptian and Israeli Prime Ministers both are awarded Nobel Peace Prize 
for this successful peace treaty. But unfortunately, after two years, the Egyptian Prime Minister gets
assassinated. By the right-wing extremists in Egypt.
The fanatics questioned the Prime Minister's treaty with Israel. 
They wanted to kill him because he reached a compromise. And so he was assassinated.
From 1967 to the 1980s, 
It had been more than 10 years since Israel had occupied the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.
Many Israelis started establishing their colonies in the West Bank during this period.
They start building settlements and living there permanently. Israeli government supported them directly or
indirectly. And the prices of the homes were low there. Some people go there for cheap housing while others for
their religious nationalism. Some fanatic Israelis claim that the entire West Bank area is theirs. And so they'll reside
there. And so Israeli settlements start cropping up in the West Bank area.
The international community deems these settlements to be illegal because these 
settlements go against the United Nations Partition Plan. And the Palestinians see them as colonization.
Basically, their country is being colonized by the Israelis. 
In 1992, Israel gets an amazing Prime Minister. His name was Yitzhak Rabin. He said that PLO is not a terrorist
organization. They just want their country and the Israelis should let them have it. Israel officially recognized
PLO. And in return, PLO officially recognized Israel as a country.
And here the 1993 Oslo Accords take place.
For the first time, both of them come together and talk. 
About how the country can be correctly and peacefully divided.About how the Palestinian country can be created.
As a result, in 1994, the Palestinian Government is established for the first time. 
It is named the Palestinian National Authority. But at this point in time, Israelis had already established permanent
settlements in many West Bank areas. Which were supported by the Israeli Government. And the Palestinians were
living in few areas in bits and pieces.
It was then decided to divide the West Bank area into three parts. 
Area A, B, and C.
Area A would be where the Palestinian government would be in control.
In Area B both the governments will exercise control.
And Area C will be the areas where the Israeli Government will retain control.
Let alone the United Nation's Partition Plan 
In reality, in 1994, Palestine gets only some bits and pieces in the West Bank area and Gaza Strip to form their
country. But the good news is that then, Israel and Palestine were very close to coming up with a peaceful solution.
For this reason, in 1994, the President of the Palestinian Authority - Yasser Arafat,
and the Prime Minister of Israel Yitzhak Rabin was awarded Nobel Peace Prize.
But unfortunately, after this, the whole situation goes downhill. 
When the extreme wight-wing Jewish people assassinate their Prime Minister. In the same way that Godse
assassinated Gandhi Ji.Because Gandhi Ji talked about unity between Hindus and Muslims.
A Jewish extremist shot the Israeli Prime Minister thrice from a pistol at point-blank range in 1995. 
These fanatic Jewish people questioned the compromise with Palestine. About why they were given any land at
all. They wanted entire Palestine to be Israeli's. And because of these fanatics, the situation kept on worsening.
Around 5-6 years before this incident, 
some Islamic fanatics in Palestine came together to form the HAMAS group. HAMAS group claims that the PLO is
being too secular. And compromising a lot with Israel.
So the fanatics created a new organization to fight for the eradication of Israel. And here the HAMAS group
forms. Obviously, when the peace treaty is signed around 1994 between Palestine and Israel the Jewish fanatics start
hating their Prime Minister and on the other hand, the HAMAS group starts hating the PLO.
All because they reached a compromise with Israel. 
Not only does the HAMAS group boycott the 1996 Palestinian election but they also carry out suicide bombings in
Israel.
Because of this, on both sides, the dominance of the extreme right-wing groups starts rising. 
There is increasing polarization.
People on both sides, the Israelis and Palestinians start hating each other. 
Some hatred was already there and after 1995 it keeps on increasing. Around 2002, violent protests were seen on
both sides. More than 100 Israelis and Palestinians died on the other side of the border. There are clashes on the
ground and the people have become so skeptical of each other that Israel starts building walls around its
settlements. Security guards are deployed around the permanent houses built by the Israelis in the West Bank and
checkpoints are placed. And it continues to become increasingly difficult for Palestinians to live there.
In 2006, the HAMAS militant group runs in the Palestinian election and wins.
It defeats the PLO party, Fatah, but by a very small margin. It wins 74 out of 132 seats. But after this, in 2007, a
civil war takes place between these two parties in Palestine. Internally, the supporters of one party start fighting the
supporters of the other.
In 2007, this war is known as the Battle of Gaza.
And Palestine is divided into two parts.
In the Gaza Strip, HAMAS establishes its control. 
And the West Bank area is controlled by Fatah and PLO. Who rules the West Bank.
So this is the situation today, friends.
There is no doubt that Israel has continued to colonize the West Bank area for several decades. 
Causing the clashes to intensify.
The recent clash, 
was because Israel is occupying the areas in the West Bank. And the fanatics in Israel demand that the entire West
Bank area be theirs. That the entire Jerusalem be theirs.
And the fanatics in Palestine want to eradicate Israel completely.
The most important question is What can be the solution to this?
Look at the map of Palestine. 
In the West Bank, the country is divided into so many parts That today if this country were to be given an
independent government how will it exist in so many bits and pieces?
Some people believe that a two-state solution can still be possible. 
That the area is divided based on 1967.
Based on Israel and Palestine.
Some people say that the division needs to be based on the 1947 Partition Plan. 
But if this is done then the most prominent question will be What will happen to the colonies of permanent
settlement that Israel had built in Palestine? There are proper societies with homes and schools and hospitals and
wide roads.
What will happen to these areas if they are reclaimed by Palestine? 
There are hundreds of thousands of people living in the settlements in the West Bank.
Here I will like to ask what do you think, friends?
How should two countries be divided?
Write in the comments below.
I hope you found this video informative, friends.
If you want to take a lesson from this video, in my opinion, it should be that
Don't stop raising your voice against the fanatics!

Independence Day, also called Fourth of July or July 4th,
in the United States, the annual celebration of nationhood.
Independence Day is celebrated in the United States on July 4.
Often the holiday is called the Fourth of July.
The Fourth of July celebrates the passage of the Declaration
of Independence by the Continental Congress on July 4, 1776.

The Declaration announced the political separation

of the 13 North American colonies from Great Britain.
The Declaration of Independence, passed on July 4, 1776,
reflected widespread dissatisfaction in the colonies with increased British control.

Colonists especially opposed a series of unpopular laws

and taxes enacted by Britain beginning in 1764,

including the Sugar Act, the Stamp Act, and the so-called
Intolerable Acts.
On July 2nd, 1776, the Continental Congress voted in favor of independence, and two days later
delegates
from the 13 colonies adopted the Declaration of Independence, a historic document drafted by
Thomas Jefferson.
On July 2nd, 1776, the Continental Congress voted in favor of independence, and two days later
delegates
from the 13 colonies adopted the Declaration of Independence, a historic document drafted by
Thomas Jefferson.
When the initial battles in the Revolutionary War broke out in April 1775,
few colonists desired complete independence from Great Britain, and those who did were
considered radical.
By the middle of the following year, however, many more colonists had come to favor independence

On June 7, when the Continental Congress met at the Pennsylvania State House
(later Independence Hall) in Philadelphia, the Virginia delegate Richard Henry Lee
introduced a motion calling for the colonies’ independence.
Amid heated debate, Congress postponed the vote on Lee’s resolution,
but appointed a five-man committee to draft a formal statement justifying the break with Great
Britain.
On July 2nd, the Continental Congress voted in favor of Lee’s resolution for independence in a near-
unanimous vote

On that day, John Adams wrote to his wife Abigail that July 2 “will be celebrated, by succeeding
Generations, as the great anniversary Festival”
and that the celebration should include “Pomp and Parade…
Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the
other.”
On July 4th, the Continental Congress formally adopted
the Declaration of Independence, which had been written largely by Jefferson.

On July 4th, the Continental Congress formally adopted

the Declaration of Independence, which had been written largely by Jefferson.

Though the vote for actual independence took place on July 2nd, from then on the 4th
became the day that was celebrated as the birth of American independence.
The flag of the United States of America, often referred to
as the American flag or the U.S. flag
The 50 stars on the flag represent the 50 states and the 13 stripes
represent the original Thirteen Colonies that rebelled
against the British crown and became the first states in the Union.
Nicknames for the flag include “the Stars and Stripes”, “Old Glory”, and “the Star-Spangled Banner”.

By 1970 two distinct political parties had emerged. The Federalists were led by
Alexander Hamilton and the Democratic Republicans were led by
Thomas Jefferson.
By the last decade of the 18th century, the two major political parties—
the Federalist Party and Democratic-Republicans—that had arisen began
holding separate Fourth of July celebrations in many large cities.
The tradition of setting off fireworks began in Philadelphia on July 4, 1777,
during the first organized celebration of Independence Day.
Ship’s cannon fired a 13-gun salute in honor of the 13 colonies.
The tradition of patriotic celebration became even more widespread after the War of 1812,
in which the United States again faced Great Britain.
In 1870, the U.S. Congress made July 4th a federal holiday

in 1941, the provision was expanded to grant a paid holiday to all federal employees.

Over the years, the political importance of the holiday would decline, but Independence Day
remained an important national holiday and a symbol of patriotism.
