One day an acquaintance met the great scholar and said, "Do you know what I just heard about your friend?
"Hold on a minute, before telling me anything I'd like you to pass a little test. It's called the Triple Filter Test."

The Man: "Triple Filter Test?"
Scholar: "That's right, before you talk to me about my friend it might be a good idea to take a moment and filter what you're going to say."

Scholar continued... "That's why I call it the triple filter test. The first filter is Truth. Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true?"
The Man: "No, actually I just heard about it and..."
Scholar: "All right, so you don't really know if it's true or not. Now let's try the second filter, the filter of Goodness. Is what you are about to tell me about my friend something good?"

The Man: "No, on the contrary..."
Scholar: "So, you want to tell me something bad about him, but you're not certain it's true. You may still pass the test though, because there's one filter left."
Scholar continued: "The filter of Usefulness. Is what you want to tell me about my friend going to be useful to me?"
The Man: "No, not really."

Scholar: "Well, if what you want to tell me is neither true nor good nor even useful, why tell it to me at all?"

However, since the Muslims are scattered and there exists no know network of Muslims in the area, in order to serve as a catalyst for the project we have intiated a website/blog to among other avenues to assist with this.

METHOD:
Clean Pineapples and liquidize with the pears. Add Roses Passion fruit and Jungle Yum. Scoop out Passion Fruit and mix with above. Grate apples into mixture. Add water- according to taste. Best served chilled. Decorated with mint leaves, lemon slices or rose petals before serving.

As fruit digests faster than bread, the slice of fruit digests quickly and is ready to go straight through the stomach into the intestines, but its passage is blocked by the bread which takes longer to digest...

...In the meantime the whole meal ferments and turns to acid. Consequently, when the fruit comes into contact with the food in the stomach and digestive juices, the entire mass of food begins to spoil!

So it is better to eat your fruits in an empty stomach or before your meals.
