Mawlid Un Nabi History

Mawlid un Nabi, also known as Eid Milad un Nabi, is a significant religious event for Muslims. The observance commemorates the birth anniversary of the Prophet Muhammad, who is the founder of Islam and is revered as the last prophet of God. With a substantial population of Muslims in Canada, this day is marked with great enthusiasm as an opportunity to honor the Prophet Muhammad, his teachings, and the Islamic faith.

Porte Photos’ Daily Quote: August 15, 2023

I’m a writer.
An amateur photographer.
An actor.

~ Ben Affleck
American – Actor Born: August 15, 1972

Porte Ponderings:

The Ben Affleck quote reminds us of all the different roles we play.

For me at this moment in time: wife, mother, grandmother, photographer, kayaker, hiker, pet-owner, bird watcher, nature lover …

But these roles change over time. Adding different titles, while some disappear.

We also have our public roles and private roles, or should I say our work roles vs our hometime roles.

Here’s a toast to all your lifetime roles. 😉

but it never ends.

Porte Musings:

September 2nd always saddens my heart.

It was the day my mother suddenly passed and my world was shattered.

The years have softened the blow,
but her memory lives on and my heart still misses her.
