 Qur'an 20170902

27.  Say, "Show me those who you have joined with God as partners... by no means!  No, God is Allah, the Exalted in Power, the Wise."

28.  We have not sent you but as a messenger to men, giving them glad tidings, and warning them, but most men understand not.

29.  They say,"When is this promise, if you are telling the truth?"

30.  Say, "The appointment to you is for a Day, which you cannot put back for an hour, nor put forward."

31.  The unbelievers say, "We shall neither believe in this scripture nor in that before it."  Could you but see when the wrongdoers will be made to stand before their Lord, throwing back the word on one another!  Those who had been despised will say to the arrogant ones, "Had it not been for you, we should certainly have been believers!"

Sheba 34:27-31

The white hot galangal substitute for peppers

 

Hi Natty!  How are you, Honey?  I hope you are feeling fabulous my darling, and having tons of fun while keeping safe and healthy.  Wow, I sure slept a lot last night.  I must have been really tired.  8 hours!  Alhamdulillah.  I still felt drowsy in the afternoon, though.  Why is that?  I wish I could master that mental shortcoming, and transfer the drowsiness to midnight instead.

I'm pretty frustrated that I can't eat red hot chilli peppers anymore.  I can't eat the green ones, either.  My mouth craves the heat, but my stomach says no way.  Suddenly galangal came into my life.  It's as hot as a hot pepper, but it has flavor and the heat lingers too.  And it definitely agrees with my stomach.  I've been using it all the time recently in lieu of hot peppers.  I just had curry pups with galangal in them.  Hm, could have used more.  Another useful spice is coriander seeds.  It's a very effective anti-gas, but it has to be incorporated into the cooking otherwise you would have to remember to ingest some.  Yes, it does have a strong flavor of coriander.  By the way Honey, please remember to say "In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful" or "In the name of Allah" or at the very least "in the name of God" before you take the first bite/sip of any food or beverage.  You don't have to shout it out, just the slightest whisper will do.
