World Cup 2022: Barcodes in Qatar Hotels Introduce Islam to Fans

As the clock ticks towards the most anticipated World Cup 2022, Qatar has launched a new initiative to introduce Islam to visitors during the international tournament.

According to Aljazeera, new QR codes were added in Qatar hotels guest-rooms that introduce visitors to Islam and Qatari culture in all languages.

The “barcode” leads to a page belonging to the Qatari Ministry of Awqaf. The landing page includes an introductory guide to Islam in different languages.

The code also bears the logo of the Abdullah bin Zaid Al Mahmoud Islamic Cultural Center, affiliated to the Qatari Ministry of Awqaf and Islamic Affairs, which launched the initiative.

The initiative is not the first. Last month, Qatar placed several murals across the country with hadiths of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) to introduce Islam to incoming World Cup fans.

List of Times and Places Where Dua is Accepted

A short reminder regarding the recommended times of dua . And I think what you need to know here is that the recommended times of dua or recommended things that can cause your dua to be accepted, can be divided into two sort of large groups: Am I Good Enough to Make Dua for Myself? Situations where your dua is accepted. Times where your dua is accepted So I’m going to very briefly mention them one after the other as much as possible.

Islam began as something strange, and it shall return to being something strange, so give glad tidings the strangers. (Sahih Muslim 145) This famous nasheed has many versions; this one is from Muhammad al-Salman and has the subtitles in English embedded. [We are] strangers and we do not bow the foreheads to anyone besides Allah  […] Transliteration to help in the pronounciation:  Ghurabaa’ wa li ghairillaahi laa nahnil jibaa Aisha Stacey  wrote in an article for Aboutislam.net : “I think that many of you would agree that being Muslim in the 21st century makes you well acquainted with being strange. It might even be a metaphor for random, as in you have been randomly selected. […] many converts to Islam will tell you about feeling as if they were strangers, before finding Islam. They will speak of feeling that they belonged somewhere else that their lives were just slightly off center. They often speak about a vague sense of knowing they were not like everyone else...
