Un viaje alternativo a Siria y Jordania, cuna de la civilización donde podremos detenernos a contemplar restos de la civilización nabatea (Petra), de la romana (Palmira), de la bizantina (Ba'albeck), de la islámica (Bosra),etc.. Un viaje alternativo por dos de los países que albergan más historia, y civilizaciones. Podremos conocer el encanto de Alepo con uno de los zocos más antiguos de todos los países árabes, la ciudad de las norias como se conoce Hama o vivir la magia del desierto de Wadi Rum.

Tomb of Imam-Al-Nawawi ra in Bosra- Nawa Town- Syria Imam Nawawi complete names is Abu Zakaria Mohiuddin Yahya, son of Sharaf AnÃNawawi, and from the family of Imam Hassan and Hussain and Prophet Muhammad (Peace be Upon Him.) Nawawi refers to Nawa, a place near Damascus, in the suburb of the city of Howran. Imam Nawawi (ra) was born at Nawa in the year 631 AH His father, a virtuous and pious man, resolved to arrange for proper and befitting education as he had discovered the symptoms of heavenly intelligence and wisdom in his promising child at an early stage. Imam's Simplicity and Niceness of Manners: The learned persons, elite of the society and the public greatly respected the Imam on account of his piety, learning and excellent character. He used simple dress and ate simple food. Devout scholars do not care about worldly chattels, they give preference to religious and academic pursuits, propagation of Faith etc. They experience more heavenly delight and joy in such activities than those who seek satisfaction in luxurious foods, precious clothes and other worldly things. Imam Nawawi had a prominent place among the erudite notables of his age. He was God-fearing person having illustrious and glorious aims regarding propagation of Faith. Celebrated Sheikh Mohiuddin expresses his impression about Imam Nawawi as thus: "Imam Nawawi had three distinctive commendable qualities in his person.

When Muhammad was either nine or twelve years old, he met Bahira in the town of Bosra in Syria during his travel with a Meccan caravan, accompanying either Abu Bakr or Ali. When the caravan was passing by his cell, the monk invited the merchants to a feast. They accepted the invitation, leaving the boy to guard the camel. Bahira, however, insisted that everyone in the caravan should come to him. Then a miraculous occurrence indicated to the monk that Muhammad was to become a prophet. According to one version, those were the stigmata that Bahira found on the young Muhammad; other variants of the story say that it was a miraculous movement of a cloud or an unusual behavior of a branch that kept shadowing Muhammad regardless of the time of the day. The monk revealed his visions of Muhammad's future to the boy's companion (Abu Bakr or Ali), warning him to preserve the child from the Jews (in Ibn Sa'd's version) or from the Byzantines (in al-Tabari's version). Both Ibn Sa'd and al-Tabari write that Bahira found the announcement of the coming of Muhammad in the original, unadulterated gospels, which he possessed; the standard Islamic view is that Christians corrupted the gospels, in part by erasing any references to Muhammad. www.shadpurshareef.com http www.clickcaster.com
