HANWE

As-salamu alaykum (ٱلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ) is an Arabic phrase meaning "peace be upon you". It is a respectful, foundational greeting used by Muslims worldwide, as well as by many Arabic-speaking Christians and Jews, to express peace, safety, and blessings. It functions as a formal, sincere salutation during greetings, meetings, or upon entering a home.

In Urumqi, Xinjiang - China, 4 young Uighur food stall attendants are motionless at the tandoor, engrossed in their phones.
Phones have replaced cash in China and everything is technologically advanced.
Passport numbers or identity card numbers do all the work of tickets. If you catch a train( tickets are pre-booked) or enter a ticketed tourist spot, your entry is by scanning your passport or identity document.
It was -17°outside, so I momentarily envied them draped around the hot tandoori oven!

Francesco Petrarca

"Fuggo la città come ergastolo e scelgo di abitare
in un solitario piccolo villaggio, in una graziosa casetta,
circondata da un uliveto e da una vigna,
dove trascorro i giorni pienamente tranquillo,
lontano dai tumulti, dai rumori, dalle faccende,
leggendo continuamente e scrivendo"

„Ich fliehe aus der Stadt, als wäre sie ein Gefängnis, und wähle ein Leben
in einem einsamen Dorf, in einem charmanten Häuschen,
umgeben von einem Olivenhain und einem Weinberg,
wo ich meine Tage in vollkommener Ruhe verbringe,
fern von Lärm, Tumult und Pflichten,
ständig lesend und schreibend.“

Im Hofgarten der Residenz Würzburg blühen zur Zeit die Kirschbäume in opulenter Pracht, so schön wie nie. Schon früh morgens sind viele Besucher aus aller Welt im Garten, um sich an der Blütenpracht zu erfreuen. Als zufällig nur noch eine fotografierende Asiatin im Park war, konnte ich diesen Schnappschuss machen.

The cherry trees in the Hofgarten of the Würzburg Residence are currently in full bloom, looking more beautiful than ever. Even early in the morning, the garden is filled with visitors from all over the world who have come to admire the blossoms. As I happened to be the only person left in the park taking photos, I was able to snap this picture.

As the Sahara continues to expand southward at an alarmingly fast rate and encroach on Chinguetti’s flat-roofed buildings, and with climate change recently causing seasonal flash flooding to rip through the town, the future of these Islamic treasures remains in jeopardy.
