The World of the Convert
The convert's inner world is filled with feelings that must be among the most difficult to express.

Umar (r.a) : A Leader Crowned with Truth and Justice
The caliphate of Umar (r.a), which spanned the ten years between 634 AD (12 Hijri) and 644 AD (22 Hijri), is regarded as one of the most exemplary, exceptional and idealized periods in Islamic history.
