...1-2.30pm Ali Baba Bujang Lapok 1. Summary of the movie Ali Baba (Aziz Sattar) is a poor man who cannot succeed in life. He constantly sends his wife to his brother Kassim Baba's house to borrow flour so they can eat, but the stingy Kassim Baba (S. Shamsuddin) is frustrated at his brother and constantly reminds his wife, Aloyah, of Ali Baba's uselessness. When Aloyah comes to ask for flour for the umpteenth time, Kassim Baba loses his temper and lashes out at her sending her home in tears. She blames Ali Baba for putting her in the situation and blames him for not making an effort to seek a job. Ali Baba finally relents and goes out into the woods to gather firewood where he chances upon a group of 40 thieves marching through the woods carrying loot and treasures. He hides in a tree and watches their leader (P. Ramlee) stand in front of a cave and sings a verse of seemingly nonsensical words (niat ingsun matek aji semar ngising, actually a Javanese language poem) which causes an entrance to the cave to open. Ali Baba waits until the thieves have all left the cave before coming out of the tree and using the magic words to open the cave. Inside, he discovers a variety of riches and wealth, but only takes a box of gold coins. With the gold coins, Ali Baba is able to pay Kassim back everything he owes and live in better comfort. Kassim Baba is overcomed with curiosity and pesters Ali Baba to tell him how he suddenly came into wealth. Ali Baba eventually relents...

...On October 30, 1974, Muhammad Ali delivered an eighth round knockout to heavyweight champion George Foreman in Kinshasa, the capital of Zaire (present-day Democratic Republic of the Congo). The fight, known as the Rumble in the Jungle, is a monument in sports history and a moment of equally potent social and political significance. Leon Gast’s colossal collection of archival footage leading up to the fight in Zaire was assembled and released twenty years later in the form of a documentary entitled When We Were Kings. The film focuses on Ali’s preparation for the fight in the context of his controversial role in American society at the time. An overwhelming presence in American popular culture, Ali reaffirmed his athletic and cultural dominance...

...Most of the time we worked individual, because we had to write an essay by ourselves. We helped and advice each other while we wrote.

...Wajahat Ali. The title is perfect for this article because it is saying that Muslims stand out in a crowd and want their ID cards. However, it is using satire because they are not used to standing out in a crowd. They are for the most part just regular American citizens like everyone else living in America. This article talks about Republican Candidate Donald Trump’s stance on giving every Muslim wanting/living in America special ID cards. Ali is pointing out how Trump’s idea of tracking Muslims through a database or issuing ID cards would be wrong. Wajahat Ali is an American-Muslim citizen living in the U.S. which qualifies him to write on this topic. Other notable characteristics...

...a town in Persia, there lived two brothers, one named Cassim, the other Ali Baba. Their father left them no great property; though as he had divided it equally between them, their fortune should have been equal; but it was otherwise. Cassim married a widow, who, soon after their marriage, became heiress to a large estate, and a good shop and warehouse full of rich merchandize; so that all at once he became one of the richest merchants, and lived at his ease. Ali Baba, on the other hand, who married a woman as poor as himself, lived in a very mean dwelling, and had no other means of maintaining his wife and children than his daily labour in cutting wood in a forest near the town, and bringing it upon three asses to town to sell. One day, when Ali Baba was in the forest, and had just cut wood enough to load his asses, he saw at a distance a great cloud of dust, which seemed to approach towards him: he observed it very attentively, and distinguished a large body of horse coming briskly on; and though they did not fear robbers in that country, Ali Baba began to think that they might prove such, and, without considering what might become of his asses, he resolved to save himself. He climbed up a large tree, whose branches, at a little distance from the ground, divided in a circular form so close to one another that there was but little space between them. He placed himself in the middle, from whence he could see all that passed without being seen. This tree stood at the bottom of...

Muhammad didn’t give up, and because she was so beautiful he gave her the advice for free. He told her that going into the Embassy was her biggest mistake. When he started to answer her question she understood that he was helping her. He went through the presentation that she was going to have in the embassy. When she was done he told her that it would cost more than a big smile and her truth in some questions.

...The Kite Runner Practice Questions Explore the ways in which Hosseini portrays Ali: During the novel Ali is portrayed as a victim, First off, Baba has an affair with Ali's wife and fathers Hassan. Then, Amir forces Ali and Hassan to leave Baba's house. Finally, in the random violence now so common in war, Ali steps on a land mine and dies. However, like Hassan and Sohrab, Ali is a kind and good person. He has a beautiful voice and Amir and Hassan love to hear him sing. He remains faithful to Baba even though Baba dishonored Ali by sleeping with Sanaubar. Ali is also devout – his humble, constant faith perhaps influences Amir's own religious awakening later in the novel. Ali makes much fewer appearances in the novel compared to the other characters but his speeches are very important. Some of the main ones are: [...] Ali had congenital paralysis of his lower face muscles, a condition that rendered him unable to smile and left him perpetually grim-faced. (2.20) But polio had left Ali with a twisted, atrophied right leg that was sallow skin over bone with little in between except a paper-thin layer of muscle. [...]. I watched him [Ali] swing his scraggy leg in a sweeping arc, watched his whole body tilt impossibly to the right every time he planted that foot. It seemed a minor miracle he didn't tip over with each step. [...]. Ali's face frightened some of the younger children in the neighborhood. [...]. Some had taken to calling him Babalu, or Boogeyman. (2.22) From these it...

...HAZRAT KHADIJA Hazrat Khadijah was the first wife of The Holy Prophet(PBUH) Her father's name was Khuwaylid bin Asad and he was a wealthy trader. Her mother and father both died within 10 years of each other. Their wealth was divided amongst the children but it was Hazrat khadija(SA) who took over the family business and expanded it. With the profit she made she helped the poor, widows, orphans, sick and the disabled people of Makka. She had a cousin called Waraqa bin Naufal who was very learned man and who was not an idol worshipper. Both Waraqa and Hazrat Khadija were monothiests and believed in one Allah. Because of her excellent Akhlaq the Arabs (who at that time used to look down upon women) called her Tahira - the pure one. She was also known as the 'Princess of Makkah' because of her wealth. A lot of Arab nobles and princess wanted to marry her but she refused all of them. In 595 AD, Hazrat Khadija was looking for someone to be in charge of her caravan to Syria. Hazrat Abu Talib(AS) suggested the Prophet Mohammad(pbuh&hf) to her. She had heard of his trustworthiness and agreed to employ him although he did not have much trading experience. To help him she sent her slave Maysara. Soon it was arranged for Hazrat Khadija(SA) to be married to the Prophet Mohammad(pbuh&hf). At that time, Prophet Mohammad(pbuh&hf) was aged 25 and Hazrat Khadija(SA) was 40 years of age. According to Shiite tradition, this was her first marriage and that she was not a widow...

In the short story “My Son the Fanatic” we meet a Muslim Pakistani family from England. They have been living in England for many years and they have chosen to live the English lifestyle. The family father, Parvez, is a taxi driver. He has been driving taxi for more than twenty-years. Parvez is not much of a devout Muslim; his interests have more been on living the free life. “But I love England” Parvez said. “They let you do almost everything here.” He is also an alcoholic, this I can tell, because he instantly has an urge to drink whiskey. "He went more to the whisky bottle, even when he was at work.” Further more, Parvez also has a girl friend, Bettina. They have known each other for 3 years, and they’re great friends. Bettina is a prostitute and she is often his last costumer. “He could talk to her about things he’d be never able to discuss with his own wife.” In the other hand, we have Ali.

In a career which spanned three decades and 93 fights, Chuvalo fought 6 world heavyweight champions, and failed in two attempts to capture the World Heavyweight Title. He lost to heavy weights including Muhammad Ali. Although he lost to heavy weight champions he also defeated top defenders such as Yvon Durelle, Doug Jones, Jerry Quarry and Cleveland Williams George. He had fought for the world title twice, losing to Ernie Terrell and in his first fight with Muhammad Ali. In 93 professional fights, Chuvalo was never knocked off his feet. Chuvalo was a spirited boxer and was looked up to by many. Chuvalo was put into the Ontario Sports Hall of Fame in 1995 and was well deserving of it.

...What kind of man does it take to achieve greatness? A man that inspires people through his work in the boxing ring, as well as in his personal life. We meet a man who, throughout his life has done both all the way up to this very day. He has inspired people to fight for what they believe and to have confidence to be whoever you want. Muhammad Ali was one of the greatest boxers of all time and an influential leader throughout his entire life. Cassius Clay was born January 17, 1942 in Louisville, Kentucky. While Cassius was a young he experienced racial prejudice and discrimination. At the age of 12, young Cassius and a friend were at the local fair when the two noticed Cassius bike was stolen, which led him to his boxing career. It was more of a twist of fate that brought Cassius Clay to boxing. According to Muhammad Ali (2013). Cassius ran to Joe Martin who was a police officer and also trained boxers at the local gym. When Joe heard that Cassius wanted to beat the thief up Joe Martin replied “Well you better learn how to fight, before you start challenging people” Muhammad Ali (2013). Joe Martin took Cassius under his wing and worked with Cassius on his boxing skills. Cassius went on to win his first Amateur fight in 1954 from a split decision.

...and as part of his regular clientele he drives around prostitutes. Throughout the short story you get the impression that Parvez no longer can identify himself with his Islamic upbringing. His son, Ali, seems to also embrace the lifestyle of his British peers. Parvez refers to Ali as a gifted cricket and soccer player. He also has a talent for swimming and a bright future in accounting. However all is not as it seems; Parvez is growing more and more concerned with his sons obvious change in behavior. The taxi driver speaks with his colleagues and to Bettina, a prostitute that has become his friend, about his sons changing behavior. As the story progresses it becomes clear that all of Parvez’s “dreams of doing well in England” dissipate when Ali confess that he is disgusted with his father’s neglect of the Muslim culture and religion. Increasingly disturbed by his sons religious fundamentalism and contempt for the western world he seeks to confront him. The story concludes with this confrontation. My Son the Fanatic is set in England, although the specific area is not mentioned. The story is told through a third person omniscient narrator. There are flashbacks and often very detailed descriptions of what is going on. My Son the Fanatic begins in media res meaning it starts while Ali is already in the process of becoming a “fanatic” Muslim. The stylistic choice is designed to capture the readers’ attention and...
