I disagree. Whoever is born, Allah (swt) has written down his rizq, whatever amount it is.

Allah Hu Akbar. Allah SWT is most powerful

Absolute devastation in Haiti. May Allah SWT help those who are suffering. Ameen

I agree (Allah SWT writes the rizq of every person till his death even before he's born). But this calamity is also from Allah, we cant judge his doings. My thought was just to reason the calamity, although I cannot.

The world could easily supply food for 12 billion. There is no bright side to this disaster.

You are just trying to overanalyze my post.

It is easy to milk another poor nation for the relief they pass to a third party while coming across as heroes..

be that as it may, I don't believe any person or nation is behind this disaster...but we can expect many more disasters in the near future manipulated or natural...

food for thought!

Search for HAARP on youtube or Google it

Interesting info regards to how this machine can trigger earthquakes...

In the US, the technology is being perfected under the High-frequency Active Aural Research Program (HAARP) as part of the ("Star Wars") Strategic Defence Initiative (SDI). Recent scientific evidence suggests that HAARP is fully operational and has the ability of potentially triggering floods, droughts, hurricanes and earthquakes.

Not saying its anything to do with the Haiti disaster, Its an intriguing subject nevertheless, Never knew such weapons of mass destruction existed!

Ok, I'm sorry, about starvation. But those people have died for some cause like that might an Azaab or something. Why whine about them even if they were my brothers and sisters.

Some very good news. A little girl was rescued from rubble by some reporters, and is healthy (albeit dehydrated slightly). And the relief fund in Britain raised £10 million on its first day. It just goes to show, mankind can be a fantastic race and we can be caring to one another.

It's not a big deal saving children (precisely people) when the whole world is watching. There are many innocent children killed brutally in Gaza and Lebanon, what was UN doing then (it just say stop that, stop this). How many countries raised how many money to save the innocent children of Gaza and Lebanon?
The quake is a calamity and no one is to be blamed if the whole country is wiped off the human lives, but there in Gaza and Lebanon people are killed

Please people just can we concentrate on the quake in this thread please ? .. i don't think this has any relation to gaza. I am also angry about all those things , but it doesn't mean we should undermine the rescue efforts.

OK, I was wrong to express my thought here. But my thought was never wrong.
OK, people please ignore this post and continue with your (so called) relief programme.

I would just like to express my respect and pride in our board members here for not falling into what the members of another religious board have fallen into - blaming the victims of this tragedy and saying they brought it on themselves by "doing voodoo" and "making a deal with the devil", as Pat Robertson claimed.

My picks for Haitian relief efforts:

www.directrelief.org/Index.aspx (quick, 99% efficient, in for long haul)
www.yele.org/ (Haitian org., focuses on 'forgotten' communities)
doctorswithoutborders.org/

Pat Robertson is a moron. I saw his comments. He clearly isn't educated with the facts- Haiti's population is 80% Catholic Christian and 16% Protestant Christian, although I believe Christians in Haiti to incorporate some form of vodoo into their beliefs.

Well i guess we can just pray for our brothers and sisters in the Haita's earthquake and ask our lord to help them.
