Mohammad Al-Sharekh: Lover of Arabic language
Our Arabic language is a queen crowned over all languages.

A year has passed, or perhaps a new opportunity has emerged? Just a day ago, the world welcomed a new year according to the Gregorian calendar, universally adopted by most countries. Termed Anno Domini, its years commence with the birth of Christ (PBUH). This calendar was crafted by the young Armenian Monk Dionysius Exiguus, who passed away in 544 AD in the Byzantine Empire.
