Rare Birds.....................!

Rare bird in the world
The Bishop's Moloka (Moho bishopi) is a member of the extinct genus of the (Moho) within the extinct family Mohoidae. It was previously regarded as member of the Australo-Pacific honeyeaters (Meliphagidae). Lionel Walter Rothschild named it after Charles Reed Bishop, the founder of the Bishop Museum.
Description
It was discovered in 1892 by Henry C. Palmer, a bird collector for Lord Rothschild. Its length was about 29 centimeters. The tail had reached a length of 10 centimeters. The plumage was general glossy black with yellow feather tufts on the maxillaries, beneath the wings and the undertail coverts. Their songs were simple two notes, took-took, which could be heard for miles.
Distribution
It was endemic to the montane forests in the eastern of the Hawaiian Island of Molokai, and Mount Olokai. Subfossil bone finds from Maui, on Mount Olinda at about 4,500 ft above sea level are sometimes referred to in literature as the Maui.
Ecology
Little is known about its ecology. It fed on nectar from the flowers of Hawaiian lobelioids.
Extinction
Causes of the bird's extinction include deforestation, competition from introduced predators, hunting by the Hawaiians due to the much sought yellow feathers to make the precious capes for the nobility, and diseases which were introduced by mosquitoes. It was last seen in 1904 by ornithologist George Campbell Munro. In 1915 Munro tried to verify reports of eventual sightings but he never found this bird again. In 1981 there was an alleged rediscovery on Maui although this sighting has never been confirmed.
Specimens

Today the bird can only be seen as specimens, paintings, picture notes, and skins. Records of these types are known to be held in Bremen, Cambridge, Massachusetts;. Honolulu; London; Molokai, Hawaiian Islands; New York; and Stockholm

All this belongs to .........

" Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" All this belongs to ..... They will say, ‘All this belongs to Allah.’ Say, ‘How then are you mislead?’ http://www.facebook.com/mdshahabuddin.sikder Yea, We have brought them the truth, and they are certainly liars. Allah has not taken unto Himself any son, nor is there any other God along with Him; in that case each god would have taken away what he had created, and some of them would surely have dominated over others. Glorified be Allah above all that which they attribute to Him! Knower of the unseen and of the seen! Exalted therefore is He above all that which they associate with Him! Say, ‘My Lord, if Thou wilt show me that with which they are threatened. ‘My Lord, then place me not with the wrongdoing people.’ And certainly We have the power to show thee that with which We threaten them. Repel evil with that which is best. We are well acquainted with the things they allege. And say, ‘My Lord, I seek refuge in Thee from the incitements of

news of the ...................!

In the name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful It is narrated by Anas (RA): When the news of the arrival of the Prophet at Medina reached 'Abdullah bin Salam, he went to him to ask him about certain things, He said, "I am going to ask you about three things which only a Prophet can answer: What is the first sign of The Hour? What is the first food which the people of Paradise will eat? Why does a child attract the similarity to his father or to his mother?" The Prophet replied, "Gabriel has just now informed me of that." Ibn Salam said, "He (i.e. Gabriel) is the enemy of the Jews amongst the angels. The Prophet said, "As for the first sign of The Hour, it will be a fire that will collect the people from the East to the West. As for the first meal which the people of Paradise will eat, it will be the caudate (extra) lobe of the fish-liver. As for the child, if the man's discharge precedes the woman's discharge, the child attracts

He knows whatever is in your ..................

M. S. Sikder: M. S. Sikder: Duty of a Muslim : Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem He knows whatever is in the heavens and the earth, and He knows what you conceal and what you disclose; and Allah knows full well   all   that is in the breasts. Has not the news reached you of those who disbelieved before? So they tasted the evil consequences of their conduct, and they had a painful punishment. That was because their Messengers came to them with manifest Signs, but they said, ‘Shall mortals guide us?’ So they disbelieved and turned away, but Allah had never any need  of them ; and Allah is Self- Sufficient, Worthy of all praise. Those who disbelieve assert that they will not be raised up. Say, ‘Yea, by my Lord, you shall surely be raised up; then shall you surely be informed of what you did. And that is easy for Allah.’ Believe, therefore, in Allah and His Messenger, and in the Light which We have sent down. And Allah is Well-Aware of all that you do. – The Holy-Quran 64, (5-9) Narrated B
