The #1 bestselling trivia collection with bizarre facts to entertain you for hours, from the creator of YouTube’s RealLifeLore .   Where can I move to so that I’m never tempted by McDonald’s again? How far into the Pacific does Trump’s wall stretch? If Plato came back to life, what would he think of modern democracy? Why do all empires fail? Who decides what countries are allowed to participate in the Olympics? What makes Finland so great?   When you take the most absurd parts of history, science, economics, and geography, you end up with a pretty confusing picture of humanity. Why do we have borders, what’s the furthest you can get from the ocean, how do you qualify as a country, and why did Vikings wear those silly helmets? These are just a few of the strange questions that bounce around the head of YouTube sensation Joseph Pisenti, aka  RealLifeLore .   In his debut book, Pisenti explores the nonsensical humor of the universe with in-depth analysis of empires, economies, and ecosystems as he helps answer the ridiculous. Why, you ask? Because someone has to. Using line drawings, graphs, and charts, Pisenti not only details the absurd—he also provides explanations on why things are . . . and why they aren’t.

This is Tafsir Ibn Kathir Part 1 0f 30. This Part of the Qur'an covers Surah 1: Al Fatiha 001 to Surah 2: Al Baqarah 141. Tafsir Ibn Kathir Volume 1 to 30 gathers in one place all relevant information needed to make the Qur'an more understandable and easier to read  or study. Each of the 30 Parts of this Book collection consists of one Juz (or Part) of The Holy Quran. Each Juz is layed out as follows: 1. The Holy Quran in the beautiful Uthmanic Script for those who are able to read the Quran in Arabic.  2. An abridged english version of Tafsir Ibn Kathir that has been translated by a group of muslims under the supervision of Safi-ur-Rahman al-Mubarakpuri. In the Tafsir section of the book, I have provided transliteration of the Arabic text for those who are unable to read the Arabic script. This will give them a sample of the sound of the original Arabic Qur'an, which they could not otherwise comprehend from reading the English meaning only. 3. The meaning of the qur'an in English (translated by Dr. Muhammad Taqi-ud-Din Al-Hilali, Ph.D. and Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan) We hope that by doing this an ordinary English-speaker will be able to pick up a copy of this book and study and comprehend The Glorious Qur'an in a way that is acceptable to the understanding of the Rightly-guided Muslim Ummah (Community)

Ready To Learn The French Language quickly and in a practical way with exciting short novels? It is no secret that language proficiency grows through practice. The more you practice a foreign language, the more comfortable you will become with it. For beginner French speakers, it is important not only to expand your vocabulary, but also to build confidence in your ability to speak, read, and master the language. The 21 captivating French stories in this book (I have included one bonus story at the end) have been carefully crafted for new French speakers to help with learning new words and phrases, while also strengthening your confidence by reinforcing what you already know. Did you realize that you are already prepared to read short stories in French? Many of us have spent so much time repeating sentences and conjugating verbs while studying a new language that we haven't realized that we can assemble that knowledge to read and understand entire stories. So, how should you use this book? It is best to start at the beginning, as the stories in this book will get progressively more sophisticated. Each story comes with a series of questions in French to gauge your comprehension of the story, as well as a glossary of some new words or terms that were introduced in that story. If you have trouble understanding any of the questions in French, refer back to the glossary for help. Words and phrases in the questions that could be confusing are defined in the glossary as well. Each story is also followed by a short synopsis in English for readers who want to make sure they have understood the story's meaning. We recommend that you read each story—using the glossary definitions if necessary—and then answer the questions. You should refer to the English summaries of the stories only after you have answered the questions. The summaries are a great way to check your answers and determine how well you have understood the material, but it is important to try challenging yourself to understand the French.

This easy French mystery includes a story in French, a complete English translation, and tons of fun exercises. Chapitre 1 —    Silence, monsieur ! ordonne Julia. Nous ne sommes pas dans votre salon. Nous sommes dans une bibliothèque ! Julia travaille avec moi à la bibliothèque principale de la ville de Houston au Texas. Nous nous connaissons depuis plus de dix ans. Julia est ma collègue et mon amie. Julia est grande. Ses cheveux sont bleus et souvent attachés avec un bandana. Elle adore porter des shorts pour montrer ses jambes couvertes de tatouages. —    Parlez moins fort, monsieur, répète Julia. Il y a des personnes qui travaillent ici. Ce n'est pas possible ! Julia a dans les mains la biographie d'une de ses auteures préférées : Simone de Beauvoir.  Elle me regarde et elle lève les yeux au ciel. —    Ce sont toujours les hommes qui parlent fort ici. Tu as remarqué, Alice ? Je ne dis rien car je pense que tout le monde, les femmes, les hommes, les jeunes, les vieux parlent souvent fort dans cette bibliothèque. Je pousse un petit chariot en métal rempli de livres que je dois mettre dans la section Mystères. C'est ma section favorite. Ces livres sont neufs. Ils viennent d'arriver à la bibliothèque. J'ai hâte de les lire. —    Alice, on peut manger ensemble ce midi ? me demande-t-elle. —    Avec plaisir, chère collègue, je lui réponds en regardant ma montre. Il est presque 11 heures 15 et j'ai déjà faim. —    Alors, rendez-vous dans la salle de pause dans 10 minutes. Je lève mon pouce pour signifier que je suis d'accord et je recommence à pousser mon petit chariot. J'aimerais être dans mon appartement, sur mon fauteuil, un mystère entre les mains et un verre de vin à côté de moi. Le bonheur ! Je passe devant la section des livres féministes. Je regarde Julia. Elle met de l'ordre dans les livres de Margaret Atwood. —    À tout de suite, je lui dis. —    Alice, j'ai reçu un mail bizarre hier. Je voudrais te le montrer. Tu vas me dire ce que tu en penses. —    Il est à quel sujet ? je lui demande. —    C'est le mail d'une cousine que je ne connais pas. Elle habite à Paris. —    Oh là là, c'est intrigant. Je ne le sais pas encore mais ce mail va nous emmener à Paris sur la scène d'un crime très français.
