Hi, I live in the UK and I study Law and sociology at university. Can anyone tell me a link to a website or any information on how to get entry to Qom Hawza, I am looking to start full time education at Qom hawza after I finish my Law degree. Also can you tell me if the education and accommodation is free or do I have to pay. I heard it was free and they give you accommodation as well as spending money. the qomicis.org website isn't working for me I don't know why, if you could tell me why I would be grateful. Thanks everyone.

Asalam-0-Alekum, Who am i where i came from? Did God create me or i am by my own. Where this life comes from? God? what evidence do we have? Can we prove scientifically that God created us?

Assalam alaikum dear brothers/sisters/mothers: I am wakeel e ale Muhammad and being a syed shia (from 4th imam`s aulaad) I consider this as my responsibility to convey this message to all of you. Its been ages since we are under attack, our masajid/imam barghas/jaloos are always on targets and now our enemies killing us one by one … we are not safe at our office/shops/homes … we are not safe on the streets and roads … chaye ka hotels (tea shops) parks, we are not safe on the journey towards karbala or iran (whether we are going or coming from there as recently Waqia e Baltistan and quetta happened and we all read and watched youtubes videos about it .. but one thing is absolutely sure that we can not and will not leave the path of Ahlay bayt a.s at any cost ! I am working at ptcl and recently I figured out that one of my CSR is involved into passing the information of Shia boys to some strangers .. I do not know who they are but I guess they are dushman e Ahle bayt a.s and aal e yazied laaen .. as you may know or not know about telenor/warid/ufone and all cellular communication networks are linked with Nadra and as soon as you call at customer service .. your nic and detail comes up on the computer screen along with your complete address and a photo printed on your nic .. CSR can save it as PRINT screen and later he or she can save it on the usb device and give it to whosoever he wills .. that guy is under my observation but my point is WHEREEVER your working … just keep an eye around you … vigilance helps you to be safe from any harmful act .. wherever your living .. just keep an eye around you neighbors .. what kind of people are coming to see your neighbors … I am pretty sure that you can recognize your enemies easily as they themselves tells you .. a person along with a long beard … wearing kurta shalwar .. visits madaras in your area where you do not and will not like to visit … you may have seen or not seen the advertisement in Jang news paper .. advertise is about project of karbala .. advertiser is asking for civil engineers, oil and gas … that advertisement was fake and only meant to collect your (intellectual shia guys) CVS and then they can easily trace you .. what I am trying to tell you guys is to beaware of those who wants to do harmful acts against you … a crime will not start in a minute .. it takes atleast 3 months to collect your information and your siblings information, information about where you work .. who are you working with .. what org is that .. they know about everything … do not sit at pathan ka chaye ka hotels .. as you have seen many incident happened recently and people lost their lives .. when you go towards imam bargha/masajids/office please keep an eye around you .. whats happening ..when coming back, make sure your not being followed by someone .. we are all in danger … please take good care of yourself !! Walaikum salam !
