A growing Filipino diaspora means plenty of celebration worldwide for Philippine Independence Day<br/><br/>In the Philippines — where Spanish and later US colonial rule persisted for nearly four centuries — June 12 is the real Independence Day. That date in 1898 was the pivotal moment when the island nation first made a bold move for autonomy.<br/><br/>Ahead of this year's holiday in Manila, the nation’s capital, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. called on Filipinos in a video message to display the country’s flag everywhere “as we continue to fight for independence. Independence in different aspects of our being Filipinos, but more than this independence in our territory, our sovereignty.”<br/><br/>Since 2023, the Philippines has faced increasingly tense territorial confrontations with Beijing in the South China Sea.<br/><br/>Photos by AP<br/> <br/>Subscribe to The Manila Times Channel - https://tmt.ph/YTSubscribe <br/>Visit our website at https://www.manilatimes.net <br/> <br/>Follow us: <br/>Facebook - https://tmt.ph/facebook <br/>Instagram - https://tmt.ph/instagram <br/>Twitter - https://tmt.ph/twitter <br/>DailyMotion - https://tmt.ph/dailymotion <br/> <br/>Subscribe to our Digital Edition - https://tmt.ph/digital <br/> <br/>Check out our Podcasts: <br/>Spotify - https://tmt.ph/spotify <br/>Apple Podcasts - https://tmt.ph/applepodcasts <br/>Amazon Music - https://tmt.ph/amazonmusic <br/>Deezer: https://tmt.ph/deezer <br/>Tune In: https://tmt.ph/tunein<br/> <br/>#TheManilaTimes <br/>#worldnews <br/>#independenceday

_amazing-quran-recitation---egzon-ibrahimi240p.webp "The Quran, also spelled Qur'an, is the central religious text of Islam, which Muslims believe to be a revelation from God (Allah). It is widely regarded as the finest work in classical Arabic literature. The Quran is divided into 114 chapters, known as surahs, which vary in length and are further divided into verses, known as ayahs. <br/><br/>### Key Characteristics of the Quran:<br/><br/>1. **Divine Revelation**: Muslims believe that the Quran was verbally revealed by God to the Prophet Muhammad through the angel Gabriel over a period of approximately 23 years, beginning in 610 CE, when Muhammad was 40, and concluding in 632 CE, the year of his death.<br/><br/>2. **Language**: The original text is in Arabic, and it is considered inimitable in its linguistic and literary qualities. Translations exist, but these are viewed as interpretations of the meanings, rather than the actual text itself.<br/><br/>3. **Structure**: The Quran is composed of verses (ayahs) grouped into chapters (surahs). Each surah has a name and is traditionally arranged roughly in order of decreasing length, though this is not strictly adhered to.<br/><br/>4. **Themes**: The Quran covers a wide range of topics, including theology, morality, law, guidance for personal conduct, and detailed accounts of historical events and prophetic stories. Central themes include the oneness of God, the importance of worship and obedience to God, and the final judgment.<br/><br/>5. **Recitation**: Recitation of the Quran is a central practice in Islam. The rhythmic and melodic recitation (tajwid) is an art form in itself and is highly valued.<br/><br/>6. **Preservation**: Muslims believe that the Quran has been preserved exactly as it was revealed, without any alteration. It was initially transmitted orally and later compiled into a written text during the caliphate of Uthman ibn Affan in the mid-7th century CE.<br/><br/>7. **Guidance and Law**: The Quran serves as a guide for all aspects of Muslim life, offering spiritual, legal, and ethical directives. It forms the foundation of Sharia, the Islamic legal system, alongside the Hadith (recorded sayings and actions of the Prophet Muhammad).<br/><br/>8. **Interconnection with Hadith**: While the Quran is the supreme authority in Islam, it is often read and interpreted alongside the Hadith, which provides additional context and elaboration on Quranic verses.<br/><br/>The Quran is revered not only as the literal word of God but also as a source of inspiration, guidance, and wisdom for Muslims around the world.")
