We have selected the following quotation, submitted by Abu Muhammad, as the winning entry for the Family Competition, in the month of Jumad al Thani 1433 {21.4.2012 to 20.5.2012}:
“If this Dunya was not a station of tests it would not be filled with sicknesses and filth. If life was not about hardship, then the Prophets and the pious would have lived the most comfortable of lives. Nay, Aadam (Adam) suffered test after test until he left the Dunya. Nuh (Noah) cried for 300 years. Ibrahim (Abraham) was thrown into a pit of fire and later told to slaughter his son. Ya’qub (Jacob) cried until he became blind. Musa (Moses) challenged Fir’own and was tested by his people. Iesa (Jesus) had no provision except the morsels his disciples provided him with. And Muhammad sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam met poverty with patience, his uncle - one of the most beloved relatives to him - was slain and mutilated and his people disbelieved in him...And the list of Prophets and the pious goes on and on.” Ibn Al-Jawzi

JERUSALEM, May 20 (Reuters) - Right-wing Israeli marchers scuffled with Palestinians as a procession marking the Jewish state's capture of east Jerusalem entered the old city's Muslim quarter on Sunday, police said.

Tens of thousands of Israelis turned out to celebrate the anniversary of the capture of the territory in a 1967 war.

Fifteen people were arrested after fighting between some marchers and Palestinians who gathered outside the Old City walls, said police.

"Ten Jews were arrested for calling out racist slurs and attacking Arabs. Five Arabs (were arrested) for throwing objects and attacking (Israelis)," Jerusalem's police force said in a statement.

Palestinians want east Jerusalem to be the capital of an independent state they hope to establish in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. Israel considers the entire city its capital. Its annexation of east Jerusalem did not win international recognition.

"Israel without Jerusalem is like a body without a heart," Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said at a commemoration ceremony on Sunday. "It will never be divided again."

Chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat condemned the celebrations, saying they were "clear proof that peace is not part of the Israeli government's agenda"

Nigerian troops said they yesterday arrested six women, including the widow of the ThisDay newspaper suicide bomber, in a raid on a hideout of the Islamist militant group Boko Haram in the central city of Jos.

Boko Haram, which seeks to impose strict Islamic law in Nigeria, claimed responsibility for the April 26 attacks on newspaper offices in Abuja, the capital, and the northern city of Kaduna that killed at least eight people and injured 34.

“The wife of the bomber of ThisDay Office in Abuja was arrested,” Colonel Victor Ebhaleme, field operations officer of the joint task force in Borno state, said today by phone from Maiduguri. Suspected Boko Haram members today shot dead a civilian in a separate attack in Maiduguri, he said.

Authorities in Nigeria, Africa’s top oil producer, blame Boko Haram for a surge of attacks since 2009 against government buildings and security forces in the mainly Muslim north and Abuja. Boko Haram, which means “Western education is a sin,” claimed responsibility for attacks in Kano on Jan. 20 that killed at least 256 people.

In yesterday’s raid in Rikkos, a district of Jos, troops recovered more than 1,000 rounds of ammunition, four improvised explosive devices, 19 detonators and 10 bags of fertilizers, Ebhaleme said.

Judicial magistrate Rizwan Hanif Sheikh on Saturday confirmed bails of 11 Islami Jamiat Talaba (IJT) activists allegedly involved in attacking police and violating section 144 by holding protest on The Mall against the killing of an IJT activist.

It is pertinent to mention that the Lahore has issued orders not to hold any protest demonstrations on The Mall.

The court confirmed post-arrest bails of accused Hafiz Abul Majid, Muhammad Usman, Umar Mujahid, Irshad Khan, Zubair Awan, Rana Zikria, Hassan, Saad and three others.

The court granted bail to said accused on submission of surety bonds of Rs. 10,000 each in two cases registered in Islampura and Muslim Town police stations. Two assailants, Abrar Watto and Imran Tarar, shot multiple fires at IJT Law College nazim Awais Aqeel. A single shot was also fired at Ejaz Butt, a student of Hailey College. The incident took place at a fruit shop outside hostel number 15 at around 9:45pm on May 13 when five men armed with 30 bore pistols arrived on two bikes. However, two of them were identified as Abrar Wato and Imran Tarar.

The injured were rushed to hospital. However, Aqeel Anjum who had sustained 11 bullet injuries died on the way. Ejaz Butt who sustained a bullet shot on his leg was reported out of danger.

An FIR had also been lodged against Abrar Watto, Imran Tarar and three unknown men under section 7ATA, 148,149. 324 and 302 PPC. Later, IJT activists held protests on The Mal and allegedly attacked on police, set ablaze two vehicles and violated section 144, despite clear instruction of the Lahore High Court.
