There are six basic beliefs in Islam:

1. Belief in God – Allah as the one true all-powerful God with no partner, equal, or son. No other God is to be worshiped but Allah.
2. Belief in the Angels – Honored creatures that do Allah’s work. Gabriel was the angel that brought the Qur’an down to Muhammad.
3. Belief in God’s Revealed Books – Muslims believe that God sent his message to prophets to record in books to serve as guidance for all mankind.
4. Belief in the Prophets and Messengers of God – Noah, Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, and Jesus (among others). Muhammad is the last of these chosen prophets.
5. Belief in the Day of Judgment – A day of judgment will take place when all people that have ever lived will be resurrected and judged by God according to their deeds and beliefs.
6. Belief in Al-Qadar – Al-Qadar is Divine Predestination. Although Allah has given man freewill, we are free to choose right and wrong and will be held responsible for our actions. Predestination includes four main facets: God knows everything that has happened and will happen, God has recorded all that has and will happen, What God wills to happen will happen and what he does not will, will not happen, and God is the Creator of everything.

Along with these basic beliefs that Muslims hold, there are ‘Five Pillars of Islam’. These five pillars represent the blueprint that a proper Muslim is to follow in their life. These five pillars are:

1. The Testimony of Faith – Saying with conviction, “La ilaha illa Allah, Muhammadur rasoolu Allah.” Translated to mean, “There is no true god but God (Allah), and Muhammad is the Messenger (Prophet) of God.”
2. Prayer – Muslims pray directly to Allah five times per day.
3. Giving Zakat – Zakat is the giving of a percentage of one’s property and wealth to the needy. A Muslim may give as much as he or she sees fit to charity.
4. Fasting During the Month of Ramadan – Ramadan is the ninth month of the lunar Islamic calendar. The fast takes place from dawn until sundown and Muslims abstain from all food, drink, and sex.
5. The Pilgrimage to Makkah – Hajj is the annual pilgrimage to Mecca to visit the Ka’ba. All Muslims that are able should make the pilgrimage at least once in their lifetime.

Allah said in the Qur’an, “But those who believe and do good deeds, We will admit them to gardens (Paradise) in which rivers flow, lasting in them forever…” (Qur’an, 4:57)

For those that follow the believe in the oneness of God and do good works, God has prepared an everlasting Paradise. Anyone who follows and believes this may enter Paradise – Muslims, Christians, Jews, and others. Muslims believe that this world is their one and only chance to earn this gift. Life involves preparing the soul to become worthy to pass through death, which is a transition, and progress to eternity in Paradise. Allah will judge each person according to his or her beliefs and acts during this life. Each person will be judged according to their individual situation, beliefs, and acts towards others. Those who live according to the truth and Qur’an to the best of their ability will achieve the reward of Paradise. However, Allah warns us: those who were shown the truth of Islam and rejected it, will be shown no mercy and shall face hellfire. Just as Paradise is a place of delight, Hell is a place of eternal torment. The Qur’an states, “If you could but see when they are set before the Fire (Hell) and say: ‘Would that we might return (to the world)! Then we would not reject the verses of our Lord, but we would be of the believers!’” (Qur’an, 6:27) No one will have a second chance to accept the faith. In Islam, your fate is completely contingent on what you do in this life.

ADHD is a problem with inattentiveness, over-activity, impulsivity, or a combination. For these problems to be diagnosed as ADHD, they must be out of the normal range for the child’s age and development.

Alternative names : ADD; ADHD; Childhood hyperkinesis

Causes, Incidence, And Risk Factors
ADHD affects school performance and interpersonal relationships. Parents of children with ADHD are often exhausted and frustrated.
Neuroimaging studies suggest that the brains of children with ADHD are different from those of other children. These children handle neurotransmitters (including dopamine, serotonin, and adrenalin) differently from their peers.
ADHD is often genetic. Whatever the specific cause may be, it seems to be set in motion early in life as the brain is developing.
Depression, sleep deprivation, learning disabilities, tic disorders, and behavior problems may be confused with, or appear along with, ADHD. Every child suspected of having ADHD deserves a careful evaluation to sort out exactly what is contributing to the behaviors causing concern.
Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) is the most commonly diagnosed behavioral disorder of childhood, affecting an estimated 3 – 5% of school aged children. It is diagnosed much more often in boys than in girls.
Most children with ADHD also have at least one other developmental or behavioral problem.

Symptoms
The symptoms must be severe enough to cause significant difficulties. Some symptoms must be present before age 7.
Older children have ADHD in partial remission when they still have symptoms but no longer meet the full definition of the disorder.
Some children with ADHD primarily have the Inattentive Type, some the Hyperactive-Impulsive Type, and some the Combined Type. Those with the Inattentive type are less disruptive and are easier to miss being diagnosed with ADHD.

Inattention symptoms:

• Fails to give close attention to details or makes careless mistakes in schoolwork
• Difficulty sustaining attention in tasks or play
• Does not seem to listen when spoken to directly
• Does not follow through on instructions and fails to finish schoolwork, chores, or duties in the workplace
• Difficulty organizing tasks and activities
• Avoids or dislikes tasks that require sustained mental effort (such as schoolwork)
• Often loses toys, assignments, pencils, books, or tools needed for tasks or activities
• Easily distracted
• Often forgetful in daily activities

Hyperactivity symptoms:

• Fidgets with hands or feet or squirms in seat
• Leaves seat when remaining seated is expected
• Runs about or climbs in inappropriate situations
• Difficulty playing quietly
• Often “on the go,” acts as if “driven by a motor,” talks excessively

Impulsivity symptoms:

• Blurts out answers before questions have been completed
• Difficulty awaiting turn
• Interrupts or intrudes on others (butts into conversations or games)

Signs And Tests
Too often, difficult children are incorrectly labeled with ADHD. On the other hand, many children who do have ADHD remain undiagnosed. In either case, related learning disabilities or mood problems are often missed. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has issued guidelines to bring more clarity to this issue.
The diagnosis is based on very specific symptoms, which must be present in more than one setting. The child should have a clinical evaluation if ADHD is suspected.

Evaluation may include:

• Parent and teacher questionnaires (Connors, Burks)
• Psychological evaluation of the child AND family including IQ testing and psychological testing
• Complete developmental, mental, nutritional, physical, and psychosocial examination

Treatment
We are going to go against the common conception that there is no effective remedy for ADHD other than prescription drugs. I am going to give you 5 definitive ADHD natural treatments that when combined triples the effect of prescription drugs with zero side effect. Ok now, let us jump straight to the 5 step solution.

1. Diet: Diet plays a major role in manifesting the symptoms of ADHD. It is believed that processed foods, foods with additives, colours and preservatives, milk and milk products, sugary carbonated juices and foods containing caffeine can all aggravate the symptoms of ADHD. So avoid them. Ok then what should you take? Here they are – fresh natural fruits and vegetables, whole grains, nuts, chicken, turkey, salmon, sardine, trout etc. Use healthy oils like olive oil for cooking.
2. Supplements: Include supplements containing iron, zinc, magnesium and omega 3 fatty acid supplements like shark liver oil in your diet. It is scientifically proven that children with ADHD have a deficiency of these essential fatty acids.
3. Exercise: In children with ADHD, exercise is as important as diet, exercise helps your child to calm down, relieve stress, increase focus for better learning and decrease hyperactivity and impulsiveness. It’s all because of the fact that exercise releases chemicals named dopamine and nor epinephrine, which in effect has the same action and does the same job that the prescription drugs do.
4. Natural Herbs: Natural herbs can work great, but only under the proper guidance of qualified herbalists and naturopaths. Valerian, skullcap, gingko biloba, chamomile, oatstraw and gotu kola are some of the herbs found to be effective for ADHD natural treatment.
5. Natural ADHD Medications: Homeopathic medicine works wonderfully for curing ADHD. Not only are these medications safe and 100% free from side effects, they also has the added benefit of improving the functioning of brain and the overall general health of the individual. These ADHD natural treatments are found to be as effective as prescription drugs. So throw away those harmful prescription drugs and go get safe and effective homeopathic ADHD Natural Treatments for your child.

It also contains unriched dry milk, cacao, hydrogenised soy butter, maltodekstrin, kalium phosphate, mono and di glycerydes, lecithin and natural vanilla aromatizator. Big concentration of organic calcium and rationally proportional balance of calcium and phosphorus, as already mentioned, helps to gain high rate of microelement assimilation. The daily dose of calcium should be approximately from 800 to 1500 mg. The resource of calcium in kidney must be permanently supplemented because that everyday human being loses up to700 mg of calcium with urine and excrements.

The spectrum of bio-calcium application is very wide (because of the lack of calcium 200 various diseases and pathologic states may appear) and the following applications are the most important.

Indications :

1. Osteoporosis of any origin.
2. Auto-immune diseases, hypo-immune and allergic states
3. Infertility, menopause, the disorders of menstrual cycle and genital bleeding
4. Oncologic diseases (multiple myaloma, bone cancroid tumour, metastasis in bones with attendant pathologic fractures, breast cancer,cancroid tumours in women genital, etc.)
5. Heart and vessels diseases (disorders in the rhythm, hypertonia, angina pectoris and atherosclerosis).
6. Nervous system diseases.
7. Rheumatics, Bechtere’s disease, arthritis, arthrosis.
8. Diabetes, thyroid diseases and dental decay.

Considering the recommendations of Chinese medicine calcium should be applied at 5 – 7 p. m. when the activity of kidney is maximum. The recommended dosage: dissolve 1/2-1 part of the packet in the water not heater than 40 degrees of Celsius (in the presence of higher temperature the denaturalization of protein may occur), and after mixing drink 10-15 min. before the meal. The powder may be spread into yoghurt or curd. It is unadvisable to pour it to tea or coffee, because that caffeine blocks the assimilation of calcium. Apply it for 14 days in spring when the cumulation of alimentary resource is being proceeded.

This bio-calcium is not recommended for children up to 12 years. There is 400 mg of calcium in one pack.

發燒的性質
發燒是每個人都可能出現的症狀，持續的高燒不退更是讓父母親抓狂的事。發燒可以分為不用擔心與需提高警覺兩個方向來說明。

1. 不用擔心的發燒
一般性病毒感染的發燒是不用太擔心，通常三天左右就會被藥物控制住，隨之而來的明顯症狀，大多數就已經能確定診斷。大部分的發燒屬於這種不用擔心的發燒，發病的病程也不用擔心，如流行性感冒病毒、玫瑰疹等等的發燒就是。

2. 需提高警覺的發燒
超過五天的發燒或是合併有發燒性痙攣，是不尋常的，必須提高警覺。這樣的發燒，必須要好好的檢查與評估，看看是否為化膿性扁桃腺炎、其他病毒染感或細菌感染引起中耳炎、肺炎、腦膜炎等的併發症，或是因潛在疾病，如癌症等引發的感染，還有其他不明原因引起的情形，川崎症候群就是其中之一。

川崎症候群的症狀

川崎症候群是日本川崎先生在一九六七年，首先發表的疾病，主要是因為持續五天的高燒不退，加上咽喉紅腫發炎（草莓舌、嘴唇紅乾且有裂痕）、沒有分泌物的結膜炎、頸部淋巴結腫大、手腳掌紅腫或四肢皮膚起疹子，出現這其中的四個症狀時，就可以確定診斷為川崎症候群。

大約兩個星期左右，手腳會出現脫皮的現象，通常是在指尖。肛門周圍也會有脫皮的情形。在脫皮的症狀出現時，才診斷出來為川崎症候群就有可能已經發生其他嚴重的併發症，失去了黃金用藥時間，後遺症與死亡率是大大的提高。因此，早期懷疑，早期診斷出來是必要的。
發生率、年齡與性別

發病的年齡，以嬰幼兒為主。六個月到小學的男女孩童都有病例報告，大多好發於六個月大至一歲以內的小孩，一歲以後發生率就急劇的降低。統計報告中，四歲以內佔了百分之八十以上。以男孩為多。東方人種的發生率較多。
檢查與治療

抽血檢查，可以發現白血球數目增加、些微的貧血與血小板過多，肝功能、膽固醇、發炎蛋白指數升高與黃疸等現象。這些不正常的數值，將會持續六到十個星期。因此，需要做追蹤檢查直到正常為止。

靜脈注射免疫球蛋白與口服阿斯匹靈，是最主要也最有效預防與治療心臟疾病發生的方法。如果有合併冠狀動脈的病變時，需長期服用阿斯匹靈，一般約六個月到兩年的時間，並定期心臟超音波檢查，直到完全正常為止。若較嚴重的，如心肌梗塞時，也許需要手術治療，以維持心臟功能，並且需要長期治療。
結語

最後，還是要再強調一次，「川崎症候群」是為人父母不可不知的疾病，它會因為沒有在黃金時間內即時的診斷與治療而產生心臟不可恢復的後遺症。因此，絕對要小心為妙，才不會遺憾終生。

It is extraordinary to note that depression, in most people, is as a result of conflict between the conscious and unconscious mind. The past events and experiences of our lives, which are presumed forgotten, are usually stored in the unconscious mind. When memories from this part of the mind begin to take over an individual’s consciousness, it creates a kind of fog over the mind, causing the confusion and anxiety that characterizes depression. Psychologists have come to realize that the unconscious mind have a great impact on an individual’s quality of life. This is one of the reasons why depression is a very difficult condition to diagnose. It does not present with physical signs or symptoms because the condition does not affect the physical body.

From the above, it is only reasonable to suggest that the best and most effective treatment for depression should begin with the mind. Within every person suffering from depression, is the ability and resources effectively to treat the condition. Unfortunately, the medical and pharmaceutical have taught us otherwise.

For a start, creating a positive attitude is the most effective prevention and treatment for depression : A sense of humor, optimism and a positive attitude can break through the worst cases of depression. Humor releases substances into the blood that relax the body and mind. Whereas a positive and optimistic attitude creates a clear mind devoid of unnecessary worries and anxieties. This makes it easy to differentiate between the present and what is being imported from the past.

A wide variety of treatments have proven effectiveness in the prevention and treatment of depression. Adequate rest, a good exercise program, and balanced nutrition are important, especially for those who have increased risk of depression. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is a counseling technique in which the therapist helps the person identify and correct inaccurate, negative patterns of thought. CBT has been shown to be at least as effective as antidepressant medications in treating mild and moderate depression.
