Bogus againReader comment on item: Salman Rushdie and British Backbone Submitted by dhimmi no more (United States), Jul 14, 2007 at 12:49 When you say in Arabic ya 3alam it means O people and the word al-3aalamiin means the peoples. And yes 3Alam could also mean world (al-3aalamiin p.) and the word al-3aalamiin in surat al-fatiha can indeed be read as the peoples and in this case the peoples or the worlds if you wish are: 1. al-ladhina an3amta 3alaihum Or those that you favored/blessed 2. al-daleen or those who went astray 3. al-maghdubi 3alihum or those that are being the subject of anger Now if you do not get this i will consider you to be beyond help Note: Opinions expressed in comments are those of the authors alone and not necessarily those of Daniel Pipes.
