My friend's blog about omani kitchen, car accident and palm tree. First, Omani kitchen. In Oman, many people still eat in the traditional fashion which is also the way that the Prophet Mohammed, peace be upon him, taught his companions. The food is arranged on a large circular plate. A mat or cloth is set on the ground and the plate of food is placed in its center. Everyone gathers around this plate and eats with his/her right hand. It is the Sunnah (i.e. example) of the Prophet, peace be upon him, to eat with the first three fingers of the right hand (i.e. the thumb, index finger, and middle finger) and to eat from what is closest, without reaching all over the plate. The meal begins by remembering the bounties of Allah, starting by mentioning the name of Allah, and ends with praising Allah "who has fed us, given us drink and made us Muslims." If the family or gathering is large, several plates will be set out. Often men will eat from one plate while women gather around a second plate. In Oman, the main meal of the day consists of rice with meat, fish or chicken and a vegetable salad. This main meal is generally served mid-day.
second, car accident.Car accident is a euphemism for a road traffic incident which usually involves at least one road vehicle being in collision with, either another vehicle, another road user, or a stationary roadside object, and which usually results in injury or property damage. Phrases used to describe similar incidents include: auto accident, car crash, car smash, car wreck, fender bender, motor vehicle accident (MVA), personal injury collision (PIC), road accident, road traffic accident (RTA), road traffic collision (RTC), road traffic incident (RTI), traffic collision. Such incidents result in the deaths of an estimated 1.2 million people worldwide each year, and injure about forty times this number.
.Third, palm tree
Date palm ( Phoenix dactylifera L. ) is considered the most important fruit crop in the Sultanate of Oman and occupying nearly 50% of the cultivated land in Oman. It is estimated that 35,000 hectares of land are planted with date palms and 28,000 hectares with other crops, including 11,000 hectares planted with rotation crops . These statistics reflect the importance of date palm tree to the Omani people who have lived with this tree for centuries. The date palm has retained its value for the dwellers of the desert because of its adaptive characteristics to the environment and the wide range of its benefits. It provides the family with many of the life necessities.
The date itself is a high energy food item for both people and livestock. Any surplus dates are sold or traded for other items needed by the family. Branches and leaves of the palm were used to make baskets, ropes, boxes, and crates. The same traditional practices of date palm cultivation and maintenance that have been implemented since ancient times are still practiced by most date farms in Oman. In many areas of the Sultanate, date orchards are well-developed in terms of cultivar selection, planting, harvesting, marketing and storage. The palm tree provided building materials, thus most of the old houses were built in palm gardens are of palm trunks and mud, and the parts of the tree not having other uses were a major source of fuel for cooking and heat in the winter. Many of the youth have left their farms to the cities in the sake of stable-income jobs as a result of oil discovery in the Sultanate. Therefore, most of the traditional cultural practices are still carried out by old men with only a slight variation or no change at all , since most of the modern techniques are not applicable by many farmers. The objective of this paper is to present a review of the traditional date palm cultural practices and the utilization of date palm tree as a major fruit crop in the Oman. This will include propagation, land preparation, planting, irrigation, fertilization, intercropping, pollination, pest management pruning,
