More heavy rains in Pakistan are hampering efforts to deliver aid to over 15 million people affected by the country's devastating floods.
Nearly 40 people were killed and several others injured in the most recent deluge caused by torrential rains in parts of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province in northwest Pakistan, a Press TV correspondent reported.
The monsoon rains, which began on July 27, caused floods and damage in different parts of the province, rendering many communities inaccessible due to destroyed roads and collapsed bridges.
As the number of people affected by the flooding exceeds 15 million, Pakistan's Federal Flood Commission has warned that the Indus River was overflowing its banks in the south.
The floodwaters flowing from northwestern Pakistan have already destroyed hundreds of thousands of homes.
The two weeks of flooding have, so far, claimed over 1,600 lives. Meanwhile, in neighboring Indian-controlled Kashmir, floods have killed over 130 people.
Authorities expect the death toll to rise as hundreds are missing and rescue workers are unable to reach affected areas.

Thousands of people have been evacuated from flood-damaged homes in northern Gaza. The United Nations and Gazan officials are talking of a humanitarian crisis.
The flooding, caused by days of torrential rains, has been so severe that many homes could only be accessed by rowing boat. The Gaza Health Ministry says one person has been killed and score of others injured as flood waters damaged poorly-built homes in the coastal territory. The government also says schools and other centers have turned into temporary shelters for thousands of homeless Palestinians. The deadly deluge has added to the woes of Palestinians in the coastal enclave, which continues to suffer from electricity cuts, a sewage crisis, and drinking water shortages-- all under a crippling Israeli blockade.

What happened to the world after the Industrial Revolution?
In what aspects of the world are we facing imbalance and why is that so?
And what is the imperialist-capitalist system doing to the natural resources of the world?
What is the fundamental reason that secular governments are not able to fix the problems of the world, even though they say that they are trying to?
What will the living Imam (A), the Imam (A) of our Time do, vis-à-vis the painful and extreme disbalance that the world is facing?
Finally, what will happen to the rains of the world with the advent of the Qaem (A), and what does Imam Ali (A) say about this?
Sister Spade explains and answers these questions and more, based upon selections from the book, The Essence of Creation, 3rd edition, as she speaks about \"Bringing Balance to the Natural World\".
It\'s time to pray for the advent of the 12th divinely appointed Imam (A), for only then can the natural world be brought back to balance.

==============================
1️⃣
The month of Ramadan is near, and you are probably already eager for it to start so you can breathe in its unique atmosphere.
2️⃣
In the month of Ramadan, God\\\'s mercy rains on us non-stop. Every moment is full of unique opportunities that should be used.
3️⃣
Now that God has favored us and once again invited us to His banquet, we must prepare ourselves to make the best use of it.
4️⃣
If you want this month of Ramadan to be different from the previous Ramadans and you want to enjoy and benefit from it more, we have a suggestion for you.
5️⃣
“Preparing for the Month of Ramadan: God’s Banquet” is a short 80-page book that may take only an hour to read, but its effect on your attitude can be astonishing. It can help for this month of Ramadan to be different for you.
6️⃣
Let\\\'s take a look at some of the readers\\\' comments:
🔸Gives you a beautiful perspective of the month of Ramadan. Wish I had read it earlier.
🔸After reading this book, my wish to benefit from the blessings of the holy month of Ramadan increased much more.
🔸Filled with a pleasant spiritual feeling that helps us to understand this month more, then in this beautiful month we can create the most beautiful, best moments for ourselves.
🔸It’s great for the start of the month of Ramadan. I always read it before the month of Ramadan. It changes one\\\'s mood.
🔸I’ve always loved Ali Reza Panahian’s lectures and his way of explaining things. If you’re familiar with him, this book will be a treat for you, and if you’re not familiar with him, this book will feel like you’re sitting in your living room with a kind, loving grandfather, a warm cup of chai, and listening to him share his wisdom with you. The book is a slow read, but I guess it’s meant to be savored and pondered upon rather than devoured. As you read about the month of Ramadan and how to prepare for it regardless of which level of Imaan [faith] you’re at, it’ll make you look forward to doing your best during Ramadan and striving to be counted amongst “God’s friends” this month and forever more. Inshallah
