Book Blast: Disease is an Expiation of the Sins by Dr. Mira Bajirova



 

Inside the Book:



Title: Disease is an Expiation of the Sins
Author: Dr. Mira Bajirova
Publisher: Partridge Singapore
Genre: Religion
Format: Ebook/Paperback

Disease is an expiation of the sins. Every sin is a disobedience to God. The sins involve the evil jinn (demons). When a person commits the sin, a black spot appears on his heart. If he repents, asks for the forgiveness, gives up with the sins, restores the people's rights and honor, who were wronged, and follows the Qur'an and Sunnah, Almighty Allah will purify his heart. But, if a person continues with the sins, his heart will become black and he will be doomed. "... Indeed, there is in the body a piece of flesh which if it is sound then the whole body is sound, and if it is corrupt then the whole body is corrupt. It is the heart." (Bukhari) "Unquestionably, by the remembrance of Allah hearts are assured." (Qur'an, Ar-R'ad 13:28) Sins remove God's blessings: life, health, fertility, wealth, provisions, knowledge, memory... Refraining from the sins is more important than performing good deeds. "Whatever is good is from Allah, while evil and sin are from ourselves and satan" (Fatwas of Ibn Baz) The only one God, Allah, the Creator of the heavens and earth and everything between, seen and unseen, sent the Noble Qur'an and His last messenger to all mankind, as a healing for what is in the breasts and guidance and mercy, and warning about the day of judgment and hellfire. "No calamity has descended except by disobedience, and no calamity is repelled except by repentance." (Ali Ibn Abi Talib) "Know, for certain, that when you break no one will heal you except you." (Ibn Al-Qayyim) More than 90% of the diseases are caused by the evil jinn, but doctors have no knowledge. Healthcare needs serious reform as went astray, instead of healing, it contributes to the progression of the disease and death, as it excites the hidden evil jinn and excited jinn spread more the disease. Satan can be cast out only by Ruqya and Negative Ions; both in the Noble Qur'an. The Ultimate Cure from all diseases is with Almighty God: Ruqya, Negative Ions and Prophetic Medicine. "Whoever abandons the Qur'an would abandon treating sickness and seeking healing through it." (Ibn Al-Qayyim).

Interview with Curtis Orloff, author of Streetcar Sandwiches






Title: Streetcar Sandwiches
Author: Curtis Orloff
Publisher: Authorhouse
Genre: Performing Arts/Screenplay
Format: Ebook/Paperback/Hardcover


Streetcar Sandwiches is a screenplay showing the efforts the owner of a sandwich shop in Uptown New Orleans undertakes to keep her business running. Not only does she have to deal with a menagerie of all types of employees, she has to comply with onerous and often conflicting regulations from several government bureaus. How she handles what turns into an ordeal threatens to change her naturally optimistic and pleasant personality. It leads directly to an outcome that could only have occurred in the Big Easy.

PURCHASE HERE


INTERVIEW:

How did you come up with the title for your book?
It was easy to come up with the title of the work.  It is the name of the sandwich shop I owned, right across from Saint Charles trolley track, on South Carrollton street in Uptown, New Orleans.  

What is your writing environment like?
I can, and have, written anywhere but a desk.  I sit at desks only when typing final manuscripts.  Most of this work was written in a local coffee shop not far from my business.  I like the commotion and actually enjoy being interrupted by friends, for awhile anyway.  Creativity is very hard for me. It comes in fits and starts.

What are some of the best tools available to authors today?
The best tools for writers?  A blank sheet of paper and a fine point pen.  Ideas originate and are filtered in your head.  They don’t flow. I have no muse, as can be seen by all my scratch outs and insertions.

What inspires you to write?
Decades ago I found a book by H L Mencken in my parent’s basement.  It changed my life. Just like that I fell in love with the language.  He made it fun following his complex ideas. I can only compare the incident to the first time I heard Eine Kleine Nachtmusik.  Both astonished me that people could create something so thrilling. I always believed in passion. Nothing of consequence has been produced without it.    Today I still love Mozart and have a bin stuffed with manuscripts over a thousand rejections hadn’t deterred me from adding to. I have sent out for publication 69 works, short stories, plays, poems, 8 big thick books, over 30 Op-Eds I tried to get syndicated.  and this screenplay, which three publishers printed as a book . Two of the publishers had gone out of business. The format doesn’t bother me. It is all about content. The ideas presented and the story would be the same however it is presented.     

Did you learn anything while writing this book?
Every work I attempt teaches me lessons.  All are adventures, making me think about things I never thought before and finding common threads.  I feel compassionately about my characters. Afterall, since I create them, I need to represent them as best as I can.  I ensure each character is unique, and if not intriguing, is at least interesting. And, as always, I want the reader to have fun.    

What is your favorite quality about yourself?
My favorite quality? I embrace everyone.  Sure. There are bad people. I am not naïve.  But I think the vast majority just conform to their environment.  My business ran great because all my employees learned to take pride in making it great, and grew to think their coworkers were family.  I like being a coach, help people prosper.

Interview with Dr. Mira Bajirova, author of Infertility Caused by Decreased Oxygen Utilization and Jinn (Demon)



 

Inside the Book:




Title: Infertility Caused by Decreased Oxygen Utilization and Jinn (Demon)
Author: Dr. Mira Bajirova
Publisher: Partridge Publishing
Genre: Medical
Format: Ebook

There are two main causes of Infertility: Decreased Oxygen Utilization and Jinn (Demon). 

When the environment or body has too many Positive Ions, the result is Decreased Oxygen Utilization. Positive Ions are produced by the manmade atmosphere, and they increase the acidity and inflammation in the body. 

These Positive Ions can affect the body in numerous ways, including decreased fertility. Many times, medicine cannot solve the problem—what people must do is to expose themselves to the Negative Ions. 

Dr. Mira Bajirova, an Associate Professor, Obstetrician-Gynecologist, and In Vitro Fertilization Consultant from Paris, explores what this means to those suffering from Infertility. 

She also highlights how Evil Jinn—through Jinn Possession, Black Magic and Evil Eye—can lead to disastrous consequences including the Infertility. Filled with insights from the Quran and medicine, this is an informative guide for anyone seeking to improve their health and expand their family.

Purchase Here


How did you come up with the title of your book?

Infertility is caused by the Unseen World of Jinn (Devils, Demons, Satans) but doctors are unaware and they speak about Idiopathic Infertility which means with unknown cause. As doctors are unaware they apply wrong management, any Infertility treatment will not work as the Demon can be cast out only by Ruqya and Negative Ions: both in the Noble Qur'an.

What is your writing environment like?

After being an atheist my whole life, I suddenly discovered that the Qur'an has a Healing Power from all diseases and we do not need to see doctors as the Ultimate Cure from all diseases is our Creator, Allah. 

I have been asking Almighty Allay three applications:

"My Lord increase me (in) knowledge"
"My Lord increase me (in) wisdom"

"and say: My Lord! Increase me in knowledge" (Qur'an, Taha 20:114)

What inspires you to write?

Infertility can be treated very easily and with no cost or very little cost while medical treatment is extremely expensive and doesn't guarantee the success, and additionally, none of the treatments work on the Evil Jinn. As doctors are unaware or ignorant, people should care about their health or infertility issues themselves by applying the Negative Ions and reciting Ruqya, both do not require the special skills.

Interview with Sylvia S. Mader, author of A Water Lily Blooms


Inside the Book:



Title: A Water Lily Blooms
Author: Sylvia S. Mader
Publisher: Virtualbookworm.com
Genre: Coming of Age
Format: Ecopy /Paperback

An attractive young woman lies critically injured and comatose in a hospital bed far from home. Images come and go as she struggles to regain consciousness. Is that a tall, dark man beckoning her from a distance? Will she reach him? Or will her life be cut short, denying her a second chance for happiness? How did she get from being a happy, promising young pre-med student to here? And like this?
This coming of age tale follows the struggles of a driven but naive high school graduate. Andrea Bradford leaves her peaceful Martha’s Vineyard home for college, wanting to be a physician — a true professional, just like so many boys in her class. But once at college, she begins suffering the anxieties of homesickness, a blistering schedule, constant disagreements with her mother, and the uncertainty of a possible stage career. Meanwhile, several romances awaken her pent-up sexuality and introduce her to inter-racial realities and even the lure of New York high society.
Episodes of confusion, disappointment, elation, tragedy, and reconciliation all shape Andie, as she grows to become a mature, competent woman by the end of this truly “American” story.

If you were to pen your autobiography, what might the title be?

The title would be: Yes!  Yes, I have overcome obstacles in my life to become a successful biology textbook writer and now, at an advanced age, I have published my first novel.  Life has been good to me.

When not writing, what do you like to do for relaxation and/or fun?

I like to go to the opera; it is so thrilling; the singing and the sets. Days after, I sing snatches of the opera to prolong the thrill. Because I like physical activity, I enjoy going to the gym to work out and have a swim afterwards. But my very favorite activity is to go for a long walk in the woods with my husband; we like communing with nature.

What makes your book stand out from the rest?
 
My novel is meant to inspire. Life is hard but if we ‘keep on keeping on’ it’s possible to be joyful, to achieve goals and find love. Often novels today are written to titillate and/or shock the senses. Instead my novel is meant to share with my readers a high regard for both the natural and man-made world, and experience with them the pleasure and excitement of being alive.

Can you give us the very first page of your book so that we can get a glimpse inside? (Just the first page please)

Please see attachment below.  I scanned the exact page.

If your book was put in the holiday section of the store, what holiday would that be and why?

July 4.  My novel demonstrates freedom. Freedom to be what you want to be; to marry whom you want to marry, and freedom for a woman to have the career she wants to have.  

Would you consider turning your book into a series or has that already been done?

It’s in the works.  The next book describes the travails of the next generation of young people who face a different set of problems from their parents.

When you were young, did you ever see writing as a career or full-time profession?

Not writing books but perhaps as a journalist for a newspaper. My father was a newspaper man but his specialty was circulation not writing. Still, early on I became interested in writing for newspapers. I was on the staff of my high school paper; I wrote short articles for my local newspaper when I was a young housewife; and later I was the faculty advisor for the newspaper at Mass Bay Community College.

Did any of your books get rejected by publishers?
My first biology text titled Inquiry into Life was rejected by Prentice Hall as not being erudite enough. It was published by Wm. C. Brown Co, a family-run publisher in the Midwest but it finally became a McGraw Hill text that is now in its 16th edition.

What is your view on co-authoring books; have you done any?

None of my biology texts were originally co-authored. I like making my own decisions and since writing styles are so different, I believe it would be difficult for any type book to have coauthors.

What’s next for you?

As mentioned above, I have already started my next novel. I like writing novels; it gives you a sense of freedom!
