HDR photo of Makkah showing the area of Jarwal by the Salmaniah tunnel with respect to Makkah Clock Tower.

The picture was taken during Magic Time ( 15 mins after sunset) to show the lovely bluish sky color and build low light. The details of the picture could not be successful without HDR.

I have created another picture to show you three multiple exposure photos;

1- Over-exposed
2- Normal exposure
3- Under-exposed

The combination of these three photos produced this final product here (www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10150554137468577&set...)

Hope you can feel it, The story of the prophet Mohammad with his grandson..

وعن عبدالله بن شداد عن أبيه قال: خرج علينا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم في إحدى صلاتي العشاء، وهو حامل حسناً أو حسيناً، فتقدم رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فوضعه ثم كبر للصلاة، فسجد بين ظهراني صلاته سجدة أطالها، فرفع شداد رأسه، فإذا الصبي على ظهر رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، فلما قضى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم الصلاة قال الناس: يا رسول الله! إنك سجدت بين ظهراني صلاتك سجدة أطلتها، حتى ظننا أنه قد حدث أمر، أو أنه يُوحى إليك. قال: "كل ذلك لم يكن، ولكن ابني ارتحلني، فكرهت أن أعجله حتى يقضي حاجته"

Abdullah ibn Shaddad heard this report from his father: that the Messenger of Allah (Peace and blessings of Allah upon him) once came out to lead us in the `ishaa' prayer carrying [either] Hasan or Husayn(may Allah be pleased with them). He stepped up, put him down and said, "Allahu akbar" to begin the prayer. During the prayer, he prostrated for a long time and I lifted my head and saw the small boy on his back. After he finished the prayer, the people were saying, "O Messenger of Allah (Peace and blessings of Allah upon him), you prostrated during the prayer for such a long time that we thought something had happened, or that revelation had come to you."

He (Peace and blessings of Allah upon him) replied, "It was none of that, but my grandson climbed onto my back and I did not want to stop him from fulfilling his need."
---------------
Abdullah ibn Shaddad entendit son père rapporter: que le Messager d’Allah (paix et bénédiction d’Allah soit sur lui = Sal Allahu Allaihi wa salam) une fois les rejoignit pour diriger la prière d’Ishaa alors qu’il portait dans ses bras (soit) Hasan ou Husayn (radhia Allahou anha).

Il se leva puis le posa par terre, et prononça “Allahu Akbar” pour commencer la prière. Pendant la prière, il se prosterna pendant un long moment et je relevai la tête et vis le petit garçon sur son dos.

Après avoir terminé de prier, les gens lui disaient “Ô Messager d’Allah (paix et bénédiction d’Allah soit sur lui), tu te prosternas pendant si longtemps que nous pensions que quelque chose t’étais arrivée ou que tu avais reçue une révélation.

Il (paix et bénédiction d’Allah soit sur lui) ré;pondit “ Ce n’était rien de cela si ce n’est que mon petit fils avait grimpé sur mon dos et je ne voulais pas l’empêcher d’assouvir ses envies.”

=>Thanks to My Older Sister and Gala; my lovely niece, mashallah :)
=>Thanks for Zeinab for her effort to translate the hadith to French :)

Thank you for making our country clean.

This pictures was photographed for a FB group created to show appreciating for those who make efforts to cleaning our country streets.

I was asked to photograph a conceptual photo to be used as a poster that will be attached to an envelope. In the poster, it is written an appreciation sentences in ,Arabic, English and Urdu language. For those who are interested to show some appreciation, they can print the poster and add some money ( Charity (Sadqah) ), thus, I believe, the smile will stick to the cleaner faces for this wonderful action.

Me & Horse:
I always feel very optimistic when I meet a Horse or I take a picture of a horse because From Abu Huraira narrating the Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him), he said (Good will remain in the foreheads of horses till the day of resurrection)

Therefore, the Messenger of Allah loved Arabian horses and recommended to acquire Arabian horses and to take a good care of them.

I believe that taking photos to show the beauty of Arabian Horse is kind of taking care of them :) I hope I can get some of the goodness mentioned in al Hadith :)

BTW,
the lens used here was `;)
