Time Travel in the Quran?

By Cikgu Fonik

The cave of Ashabul Kahfi Time travel is the concept of moving between different points in time. Time travel could hypothetically involve moving backward in time to a moment earlier than the starting point, or forward to the future of that point without the need for the traveler to experience the intervening period (at least not at the normal rate). Any technological device – whether fictional or hypothetical – that would be used to achieve time travel is commonly known as a time machine. There are no record in the holy Quran or tradition of the prophet (pbuh) of time travel back in time. However there is a tiding in the holy Quran of traveling forward to the future. Allah told the prophet (pbuh) in surah al kahfi 9-26 about a group of young men in an effort of preserving their monotheism  and a dog that took refugee in a cave from a tyrant infidel king (also acknowledge by the Jews and Christian). The asbab un Nuzul (occasion of revelation) of the ayah is when a group of Jews

How to set up a Sharp Aquos with Astro

Am I the only one having difficulties connecting asstro to an LED tv? My 2 years old JVC TV broke down suddenly today, so I bought a new one. I went to giant and had my eyes on a 32" one of the sharp line worth RM8++ , the cheapest one among the branded on display. Unfortunately, it is out of stock, so I went to next best thing, a 32" Aquos from the same line. As we got home, I was very excited and start unwrapping and begun setting it up immediately, and again unfortunately, it won't work with asstro, it doesn't display any pictures except that thousand dots. So I connected it to a plain AV antenna and manage to receive one channel only, TV3. (That is why in rural area asstro is a necessity because normal antenna could only captures weak signal, if we get TV1 that's a blessing because we got two channel to enjoy!). Frustrated I called asstro but unfortunately again to no avail, the nice lady with asstro said they can only do their

Pagi jumaat lepas, aku ikut mak aku ke pasar. Nak beli ayam dan ikan kata mak aku. Bukan aku nak ikut tapi sebab aku seorang je kat rumah time tu, jadi kena la pergi hehehe. Sampai kat pasar mak aku terus pergi kat orang jual daging ayam. "Sekilo RM 5.00" ditulis dan diletakan kat tepi penimbang. Bagi aku murah jugak la harga tu. Mak aku beli dua ekor. Memang dah perangai mak aku kalau beli ayam mesti dia beli banyak lepas tu simpan dalam peti sejuk. Dah beli ayam, mak aku pergi pula kat tempat jual ikan. "Berapa sekilo ni?" tanya mak aku kat salah seorang penjual ikan. "Ikan Aya ni RM 10.00 sekilo" kata penjual ikan tu. Mahalnya kata aku dalam hati. Ikan Aya ni hanya di guna di negeri Kelantan dan Terengganu saja. Kat tempat lain orang panggil Ikan Tongkol. Mak aku tak jadi beli, dia terus bertanya kat beberapa peniaga ikan lagi sampai la dapat dengan harga RM 8.00 sekilo. Aku tengok bukan ikan tu je yang mahal, semua ikan kat situ semua mahal. Baru aku t
