    • Dear Liz. Happy New Year (with a few weeks delay! but it is never too late to congratulate for happy occasions...)
      I am one of your new readers, writing from Iran.
      1- What do you about modest Islamic Hijab? a divine order that is given to muslims around the world in order to save their personality, beauty and fashion? International mainstream media try to create a black propaganda about this issue and you can never recognize the real truth about this... but what about looking at some interesting pictures of women wearing modern hijab? go to http://helloyahoomail.net/en
      2- What do you know about Mevlana, the great Sufi Poet of Persian gulf land? did you ever know that he didn't write even a couplet of Turkish poem? http://www.persianmevlana.ir this website lets you gather valuable information on Mevlana.
      3- and finally I invite you to take a visit of http://cyberfaith.blogspot.com to learn more about great Iran, the cradle of science, arts and power in the world today...
