Sahih Muslim is a collection of hadith compiled by Imam Muslim ibn al-Hajjaj al-Naysaburi (rahimahullah). His collection is considered to be one of the most authentic collections of the Sunnah of the Prophet (ﷺ).Sunni Muslims consider it the second most authentic hadith collection, after Sahih Bukhari. However, it is important to realize that Imam Muslim never claimed to collect all authentic traditions as his goal was to collect only traditions that all Muslims should agree on about accuracy. The Muslim Scholars have agreed that all of the Ahadith in Sahih Muslim are authentic.
Los sueños de algunos son la realidad de otros, y la confusión puede ser tan grande que estas letras formarían parte del inconsciente que está siendo liberado durante un sueño. Como Borges lo afirmó, Schopenhauer y Berkeley no estaban equivocados al afirmar que la vida es el resultado del inextinguible trabajo creativo de la mente.Las palabras de Lola Ancira son rotundas, cimbran al mundo literario por sus atmósferas, sus personajes y las tensiones que logra, abriendo el camino de una narrativa que seduce al lector al tiempo en que le exige replantearse a sí mismo.Tusitala de óbitos es un laberinto en cuyos múltiples caminos se encuentran seres mitológicos, ominosos, siniestros y, al mismo tiempo, tan familiares y cercanos a las conductas humanas más básicas y aterradoras que crean un espejo en el que cualquiera reconocerá en sí y en los demás el dramatismo de explicar la existencia en los límites de la razón.
A book of pictorial art depicting imaginary cities in the forgotten past, distant future or in another world. The cities are garden cities, with wide boulevards, beautiful fountains, set in a virtual garden of Eden.Thomas Jewusiak has been a working professional painter all of his adult life. He worked his way through college by painting street scenes and architecturally interesting buildings and selling his work through private commissions. He has designed homes and presented them through his own architectural renderings in oil on canvas and pen and ink. His love of architecture has brought him to old historic towns, capturing their magic of place through his brush. He inhabits the places he paints always painting on location where possible (even if that location is the interior of his own imagination.) He now paints only in oil on linen canvas cloth, in what at first appears to be a highly representational or even meticulously detailed photorealistic style; but upon examination his work reveals itself as highly "impressionistic", subjective, idealized and even fantastic, a streetscape of the mind- of a bridge unbuilt, demolished or obscured."Artist's Statement: I reject the description of the style of my painting as photorealistic. I make no attempt to duplicate a photograph. Although there can be a valid artistic point in doing this, it is decidedly not my point. I attempt to communicate a reality or rather an illusion of actuality, as perceived by the eye and mind that is more intense, more concentrated than that which can be captured by the camera and lens alone. I also attempt a more honest portrayal of what is real than can be produced by the simple photograph. Since many of my paintings are purely conceptual, existing originally only in the imagination, or as a distillation or manipulation of many separate scenes that may exist, did exist or I think existed, the charge of "merely" duplicating a photograph is particularly galling. By representing the finest detail in paint I attempt to foster the illusion, (or foist the illusion), to give a perceived concrete existence to a pure product of the interpretive imagination. The sometimes excruciating detail is fundamental to the intended impression, a sleight of hand (or eye), where we are perhaps distracted by the minutia, enamored of it and thus lulled into a forgetfulness that the whole is artifice, an elaborate construct that takes on a life entirely its own, an exaggerated reality so real that it seems dream-like, a dream more real than waking."
