RSS (which, in its latest format, stands for "Really Simple Syndication") is a family of web feed formats used to publish frequently updated content such as blog entries, news headlines or podcasts. An RSS document, which is called a "feed," "web feed," or "channel," contains either a summary of content from an associated web site or the full text. RSS makes it possible for people to keep up with their favorite web sites in an automated manner that's easier than checking them manually.
RSS content can be read using software called a "feed reader" or an "aggregator." The user subscribes to a feed by entering the feed's link into the reader or by clicking an RSS icon in a browser that initiates the subscription process. The reader checks the user's subscribed feeds regularly for new content, downloading any updates that it finds.
The initials "RSS" are used to refer to the following formats:
RSS formats are specified using XML, a generic specification for the creation of data formats.

I silently moaned so that for a hundred centuries to come, (Divan, 562:7) |
The name Mowlana Jalaluddin Rumi stands for Love and ecstatic flight into the infinite. Rumi is one of the great spiritual masters and poetical geniuses of mankind and was the founder of the Mawlawi Sufi order, a leading mystical brotherhood of Islam.
Rumi was born in Wakhsh (Tajikistan) under the administration of Balkh in 30 September 1207 to a family of learned theologians. Escaping the Mongol invasion and destruction, Rumi and his family traveled extensively in the Muslim lands, performed pilgrimage to Mecca and finally settled in Konya, Anatolia, then part of Seljuk Empire. When his father Bahaduddin Valad passed away, Rumi succeeded his father in 1231 as professor in religious sciences. Rumi 24 years old, was an already accomplished scholar in religious and positive sciences.
He was introduced into the mystical path by a wandering dervish, Shamsuddin of Tabriz. His love and his bereavement for the death of Shams found their expression in a surge of music, dance and lyric poems,`Divani Shamsi Tabrizi'. Rumi is the author of six volume didactic epic work, the `Mathnawi',called as the 'Koran in Persian' by Jami, and discourses,`Fihi ma Fihi', written to introduce his disciples into metaphysics.
If there is any general idea underlying Rumi's poetry, it is the absolute love of God. His influence on thought, literature and all forms of aesthetic expression in the world of Islam cannot be overrated.
Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi died on December 17, 1273. Men of five faiths followed his bier. That night was named Sebul Arus (Night of Union). Ever since, the Mawlawi dervishes have kept that date as a festival.
The day I've died, my pall is moving on -
But do not think my heart is still on earth!
Don't weep and pity me: "Oh woe, how awful!"
You fall in devil's snare - woe, that is awful!
Don't cry "Woe, parted!" at my burial -
For me this is the time of joyful meeting!
Don't say "Farewell!" when I'm put in the grave -
A curtain is it for eternal bliss.
You saw "descending" - now look at the rising!
Is setting dangerous for sun and moon?
To you it looks like setting, but it's rising;
The coffin seems a jail, yet it means freedom.
Which seed fell in the earth that did not grow there?
Why do you doubt the fate of human seed?
What bucket came not filled from out the cistern?
Why should the Yusaf "Soul" then fear this well?
Close here your mouth and open it on that side.
So that your hymns may sound in Where- no-place!

It is a good time to prepare for Ramadhan. This holy and blessed month in which only the wicked / damned Shaghi 1 will not be forgiven of his sins (as per hadith narrated from the prophet s.a.w). This is a month to be awaited the whole year round. It is a beautiful month.
Let’s read Dua no 45 of Sahifa Sajaadiyya of Imam Sajjad and see how he talks about Ramadhan and how he addresses the month:
1. السّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَا شَهْرَ اللّهِ الْأَکْبَرَ، وَ یَا عِیدَ أَوْلِیَائِهِ.
2. السّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَا أَکْرَمَ مَصْحُوبٍ مِنَ الْأَوْقَاتِ، وَ یَا خَیْرَ شَهْرٍ فِی الْأَیّامِ وَ السّاعَاتِ.
3. السّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ مِنْ شَهْرٍ قَرُبَتْ فِیهِ الْآمَالُ، وَ نُشِرَتْ فِیهِ الْأَعْمَالُ.
4. السّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ مِنْ قَرِینٍ جَلّ قَدْرُهُ مَوْجُوداً، وَ أَفْجَعَ فَقْدُهُ مَفْقُوداً، وَ مَرْجُوٍّ آلَمَ فِرَاقُهُ
