Assalam alaikum! Islamicity Forum offers many avatars for the registered members. However, I found one avatar which shows the meaning of 'Peace' with Kanzi (Chinese text) is wrong. the word 'peace' is '��ƽ', but I saw 'ƽ��' on the avatar. That is different. |

Assalamu alaikum Brother Alfandi, OH, OH!!! What does this avatar say then? I hope it is not something bad!!!! Please let me know. I will change it if it is. Thank you for pointing this out. I love kanzi symbols, they are so beautiful. I have some of them on my arm (tattoos I got years ago, before I was a Muslim). After I got them I worried that they might not say what I intended. Then I met a lady from China (whose last name was Hui, by the way) and she read them right away and they were correct (thank goodness, since they don't come off!!!). Peace, ummziba. |

Auzubillahi minash shaitan ir rajeem, Bismillah ir rahman ir rahim, Assalamualaikum wa rahmatullah The Kanji in sister Ummziba's Avatar reads "Heiwa" in Japanese, which means peace. Maa salaama, Nausheen |

Suleyman,
You said, "u may enlighten us about islam in China." Have you ever witnessed Asians perform du'aa in Chinese/Japanese/ even Korean? It is a most beautiful sight! I watched this a few months back and I must say, every hair on my body stood on end. Peace, Arabian |

In Chinese, peace is '��ƽ' (just reverse the order of the two characters in the avatar), and reads as 'Her Ping'. 'ƽ��' is also a good word, it describes one's personality: peaceful, gentle. Islam came to China about 1000 years ago. Three sahabas had been to China long long ago. Today there are about 20,000 mosqes in China.
