Cleaning Across the Ocean

when i was in Gambia i was trying to wash the clothes with my hands. But i was doing it Wrong and my Sisters was laughing at me. I told them im Not use to doing this with my hands, Im use to going to the Laundry place and Let them do it for me. So my big sister Took the Clothes and started washing them with her hands. I was type Jealous because she know how to do Things the hard way, and they Come out perfect and clean. Expecially the society in Gambia is really hard. So for her to do things Like that, its really interesting. To know if your clothes is clean, its suppose to sound squeeky while your cleaning it,the soap they use is black african soap, is Good soap,you can take a shower with it, wash your hair with it. Very excellent for people, Has great results) and when you look in your bucket the water should end up black, the soap should be half done,and then you hang it up for drying. So hopefully it should be dry in the next day, depending what you washed. i Think this was better because is saving more money for me. So i decided to learn the Hard way.

Believe in Islam

In the Name of Allah the Most beneficial the merciful and Prophet Mohammed may peace be upon him. In islam we believe there only one God and Mohammed(PBUH) is his messenger. In Islam there are Five pillows. The first one is to believe in Allah and his messenger Mohammed (PBUH). The Second one is establish all your five prayers everyday, Fajr, zuhr, asr, maghrib ,isha. Those are the prayers in Arabic. The third pillow is fast in the month of Ramadan. The fourth pillow is to give charity to the poor people. Last but the not least if you have a chance to visit the holy place Mecca/ Madina, you should because its only right. Its very important to follow these five pillows, an Excellence guidance in Life for hereafter. Also, Obey Allah , have a good heart and respect your parents. The purpose of me writing this is to provide those persons-muslims and non-muslims who have  no access to the original sources of islam with a brief but clear and comprehensive view of islam in one perspective. I am not confined to state what muslims believe in or/and stand for but to express the rational bases of these beliefs. Also the life and teachings of prophet are the beacon-light to guide people to the right path. As long as his teachings and guidance are alive, he is, as it were, himself alive. His teaching stands uncorrupted and incorruptible. The Quran , the book he gave to mankind exists in original form, without the slightest alteration of letter, syllable or word. Any who ignores the medium of the prophet and claims to follow God directly is not a muslim.https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=believe+in+allah&gs_sm=3&gs_upl=26436l29353l0l29581l16l14l0l1l1l0l130l813l3.5l9l0&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.,cf.osb&biw=1024&bih=677&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=eqpLT-ndM-L00gGOvZyODg

When I first went to Gambia. I was so amazed by the culture, the movement, everything. I felt the spirit of everyone Loving each other.But sadly, You see so many people struggle; so at the end of the day when they Get home so they can feed the Family. In Gambia a lot of  people struggle , the weather is always hot,but they still manage to go make there money, there money is not as strong like the United States money. So when they see somebody who come from a different country like America. Yes they respect you so much and Give you a lot of attention. For Americans everything seems Fine. The money is Extremely Strong compared to Gambia. There so Many open open Opportunities and a lot of Open chances.Our Electricity are always available and if we need help we got it Right away. God blessed us with  so much. not so many people have the chance we Do. So i want the Audience to Realize how important it is and how can we Limit the things we do as Americans, that people don't have. i will Show Culture, Lifestyle,Dressing,Food,Pictures, and other unique things from Gambia and compare it to America. Lets see how things will Go!
