Laying in the sun….

How many naked bodies?

I am in Sharmal Sheikh …… (a long while ago) why? It is the last part of our  Middle East history tour.

  For those of you who have not had the opportunity to lay in the sun on these particular sands or rub shoulders with dignitaries or have not witnessed women in barely string bikinis walking into the hotel lounge, here is what it is described as officially:

The name “Sharm el-Sheikh” comes from Arabic:

• Sharm (شرم) means bay or inlet.

• El-Sheikh (الشيخ) means the elder, chief, or respected leader.

So the name can be understood as “The Sheikh’s Bay” or “Bay of the Elder.”

I think whoever named it had an amazing sense of humor: Sharm (شرم) in Urdu and I think in Persian also ( pleases correct me as I am not fluent in Persian) means heya or modesty.

Sheikh of course is not only elder but a respected scholar held in high regard.

So for us Urdu/ Persian speaking folks it means a place which in English language “ makes the Sheikh blush or feel shy of because of its immodesty and non- respectable behaviour but also the non ethical deals that are made there.”

Now you may say well it’s a beautiful place and it is!

so here is what I found on it though I saw it with my own eyes but was so blasted with the same feelings as the Sheikh everywhere I looked  there were almost naked men and women cavorting around and they were all MUSLIM, thus  I really couldn’t enjoy it for its own beauty.

Gratitude is defined as using Allahs bounties to obey Him and Not disobey Him.

Sharm el-Sheikh (often spelled Sharm al-Shaykh) is a resort city on the southern tip of Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula, where the Gulf of Aqaba meets the Gulf of Suez at the entrance to the Red Sea.

It is famous for:

• Crystal-clear Red Sea waters with some of the world’s best coral reefs for snorkeling and scuba diving.

• Ras Mohammed National Park, a protected marine reserve renowned for colorful coral, tropical fish, and dramatic underwater landscapes.

• Naama Bay, the city’s main promenade with hotels, restaurants, cafés, and shops.

• Luxury beach resorts and warm weather throughout much of the year.

Although today it is primarily known as a tourist destination, Sharm el-Sheikh is also an important location for international diplomacy. Numerous Middle East peace conferences and Arab summits have been held there because of its secure location and conference facilities.

For visitors interested in Islamic history and spirituality, Sharm el-Sheikh also serves as a gateway to Mount Sinai (Jabal Mūsā)and Saint Catherine’s Monastery. The monastery, founded in the 6th century, is one of the world’s oldest continuously inhabited Christian monasteries and stands near the traditional site where Prophet Musa (Moses), peace be upon him, is believed to have received the Torah.

So Trump and Netanyahu want to make a Sharm al Sheikh in Gaza and from what I hear ( please confirm for me) Eygpt, Jordan and Morocco are going help bring it into fruition of course along with the snake next door.

The Sheikh may be shrinking with Sharm شرم

But I am dying of:

• Humiliation

• Embarrassment

• Mortification

• Chagrin

• Remorse

• Guilt

• Self-reproach

• Self-contempt

• Disgrace

• Dishonor

• Abasement

• Contrition (especially with repentance)

• Compunction

• Regret

• Disgust

• Revulsion

• Repulsion

• Loathing

• Aversion

• Distaste

• Abhorrence

• Detestation

• Nausea (literal and or figurative)

• Disdain

• Contempt

• Horror

• Offense

• Antipathy

That I am watching this happen with my hard earned taxes!

How many beaches do rich men and women need to lay their bodies on the hot sand?

Maybe they need the owner of Bilal RA give a first hand Bilal (RA) treatment for free?

May Allah forgive me! I love the sea, the wildlife beneath it and the restful calming scenes to the eyes and body and I know Allah is in control…….

BUT ….. How many beach cemeteries do the naked rich need to lay upon ?

If they do they will feel the disintegrating bones of the buried bodies of dead children and when they will open the water taps of these brand new hotels in Gaza Riviera ( Astighfirullah) the blood of these children will gush out of it with their cries …….

I am appalled at the idea of a Sharm el Sheikh in Gaza!

I have to remind myself that Allah is in control and has the last word!

In Allahs realm anything can happen he says “ Kun faya Koon”

New research makes a bold claim about a very familiar body of water on the map. The Red Sea, now a long ribbon between Africa and Arabia, completely dried out approximately 6.2 million years ago.
