In fact ,i came here with little knowledge about the British society in general and muslims in particular but what i have seen here was embarrassing,astonishing and worth respect .the british citizens are given their full rights to follow their chosen religion and to practice their rites without fear . No difference is there between any one, all are equal. the matter of religion is left between the citizen and his god. during my visit to the Islamic schools in manchester, i found that the school administration can choose their syllabus freely without any interference . the girls can wear (higab) if they would like to . the holy Qu’ran can be taught and recited by all . they can tell their prayers at their times without any excuse.
all of these make me happy that i chose your literature and your language as the branch of my study , i learned to sympathize with the poor from CHARLES DICKENS, to love all and love nature and keep it from william wordsworth. To describe the society very carefully from Jane Austin . To be imaginative and innovative from William Shakespeare . To be friendly, kindly, helpful co-operative and tolerant from everyone of you. What i can say as a conclusion is that ….your country really deserve to be “THE GREAT BRITAIN’ … thanks a lot…………………………….

Hi everybody, Selaam Alaykum, first i want to introduce myself, Mohammed Al Kabbi with you from United Arab Emarites. I was being the official photographer student in this trip. I like my job. I begin my photography life in UK, everybody thinks when he bys his camera he begins his photography life in his country but maybe i am different. I want to say about photography; it is my life and the camera is my third eye. i want to show you my favorite ten pictures. Lets go Stephen!

Exciting day on Manchester muslim school .

امضينا وقت مميز ورائع جداً في مدارس مانشستر للمسلمين ، زرنا مدرستين واحده للبنات وواحده للأولاد ، وكانت هذه الزياره بعد رحلة شاقة ومبكره بالطائرة من مدينة انفريس الأسكتلنديه إلى مدينة مانشستر الإنجليزية .

في البدايه زرنا مدرسة البنات وواكن الأستقبال جميل ، وجلسنا مع فتيات من المدرسه ودار الحوار في أمور عديده وكان شيقا وممتعا ، ومن ثم أطلعنا على المدرسه في جوله مميزه ، وبعدها غادرنا المدرسه نحن الشباب وتركنا البنات في المدرسه لينضموا إلى طالباتها في ورش عمل فنيه .

خرجنا نحن الشباب برفقة المشرفين إلى مدرسة الأولاد وكان في استقبالنا 5 اولاد من المدرسه هم : جواد وعمر وعلي وعويس واسماعيل ، على ما اضن .واخذونا في جوله في المدرسه واطلعنا على اهم اقسام مبنى المدرسه . وتعرفت انا شخصيا على الشباب الخمسه وكان من المفرح لي أن اجد لي اصدقاء في بريطانيا .

ومن ثم ومن خلال عودتنا لملاقة البنات في مدرسة البنات تفجأنا بأن الطلبه والطالبات قد حضروا لنا كيكتين ونود ان نشكرهم على حسن ضيافتهم .

i really enjoyed working in today`s  land art with abdullah because he was so helpfull and creative just like me :P  i think i was talking a lot while he was so quiet. We did our project in a very far away area and everybody was tired to reach it. Finally I think we did such a great job and we won the second best place after the teachars’ voting , i learnt from this experience that nature is very important in our life and if we just look at it carefully and take time to focus on it we will be inspired and full of energy to start new projects and also to believe more in our faith and religion .
