Ideally a simple life becomes the lifestyle of all Muslims. Not only the lifestyle of those in power. And this mindset must be instilled early on in the family environment in order to internalize the traditions and patterns of thinking so that the simple life really become a way of life throughout the Muslim family.

There is no strict definition of the meaning of simple life. But someone can be considered living in a simple life behavior if not caught up in consumerism. Consumerism is a person lifestyle who think that personal happiness can only be achieved by consuming, buy whatever you want and have exceeded the limits of basic needs.

There are many positive factors why the simple life must be a Muslim lifestyle. First, Islam strictly prohibits lavish or excessive behavior (Surah al-Furqan 25:68).

Secondly, Islam emphasizes the importance of a Muslim to be the philanthropist. Help the poor not only by charity, but also with infak, sadakah (alms) and grants. A command that will be hard done by someone who has lavish lifestyle and consumptive. Because someone who used to live like that will feel always “deficiencies.” How can someone who is busy with himself will think to help others?

Islam’s urge for the simple life does not mean banning a Muslim to work hard and become rich. Instead, Allah praised the richness as something laudable and implicitly stated that the rich are better than the poor (Surah Ad Dhuha 93:8). In Sura 71:12 Noah also plainly asserted that God multiply the wealth of a Muslim as a “reward of the world”.

Dr. Yusuf Qaradawi in his book Musykilatul Faqr Kaifa Alajaha al-Islam (Poverty’s Problems and its Solutions According to Islam) claimed that “Islam considers wealth as a blessing and gift from God. And poverty as a misfortune to be overcome.” Qaradawi In the present study found that none of the verses in the Qur’an and authentic Hadith of the Prophet who qualified to be called sahih that praise poverty or encourage a Muslim to deliberately choose a life of poverty.

Thus, what is desired by Islam is clear: be diligent to find the treasure of your ability. At the same time, choose a simple lifestyle. So it is we who control the property, not property that controls us. This is one of the Islamic solution how to achieve a happy life.

In America, the simple life also begin the echo and become a choice of many lives of the millionaires and billionaires. Stanley & Danko in The Millionaire Next Door (1998) said:

“The Americans millionaires who are living glamorous lives actually represent a small minority of wealthy Americans. The majority of U.S. tycoon chose simple lifestyle. Their distinctive lifestyle, among others, are they keep their old cars that are still functioning well. They do not wear expensive clothes and watches. And their house is relatively simple compared to the status of their wealth. ”

If the American millionaire ara able to enjoy the simple life, why do not we? []

Content of email vary. Some are as follows:

We continually review all publishers according to our program policies ( link here ) and Terms and Conditions ( link here ). During a recent review of your account, our specialists found that it was not in compliance with our policies.

WEBMASTER GUIDELINES: Our program specialists regularly review sites in the AdSense program.

It is important for a site displaying AdSense to offer significant value to the end user by providing unique and relevant content, and not to place ads on sites with little to no original content. Additionally, Google ads may not be placed on non-content-based pages.

Your site should also provide a good user experience through clear navigation and organization. Users should be able to easily click through your pages and find the information they are seeking.

Because your sites violate the spirit of our policies, we have disabled ad serving.

For more information, please review our program policies ( https://www.google.com/adsense/support/as/bin/answer.py?answer=48182 ) and Google’s Webmaster Quality Guidelines ( http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=35769#quality ).

WEBMASTER GUIDELINES: Publishers may not place Google ads on pages that violate Google’s webmaster quality guidelines (http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=35769#quality). While we’ve included the following excerpts from these guidelines, we recommend that you take the time to review them in their entirety.

* Make pages for users, not for search engines.
* Don’t employ cloaking or sneaky redirects.
* Don’t load pages with irrelevant words.
* Don’t create multiple pages, subdomains, or domains with substantially duplicate content.
* Don’t participate in link schemes designed to increase your site’s ranking or PageRank.
* Avoid “doorway” pages created just for search engines, or other “cookie cutter” approaches such as affiliate programs with little or no original content.
* Avoid tricks intended to improve search engine rankings. A good rule of thumb is whether you’d feel comfortable explaining what you’ve done to a website that competes with you. Another useful test is to ask, “Does this help my users? Would I do this if search engines didn’t exist?”
* If your site participates in an affiliate program, make sure that your site adds value. Provide unique and relevant content that gives users a reason to visit your site first.

As a result, your AdSense account has been disabled.

You may escape the rage of Google Sandbox. But this time around it’s very hard to escape the Google Panda. It detects your site very fast and punish the “low qualite sites” accordingly.

Panda penalises not only a website which has a suspected scrape content from other websites. More than that, it also takes action to a similar contents within the same sites. Even if those contents not 100% similar. It’s not clear though how many percentage a two artcles would be called similar which deserve Panda punishment.

So, if you have two or three or more articles which seems more than 60% similar, it’s strongly advised to remove all those articles but one. Merge all those three into one as suggested by Amit Singhal, the Google Panda team, in a blog post here.

If you still enjoy the Google juice now, do whatever it can to avoid the Panda penalty. The reason is clear, no search engine can give you the most traffic other than Google. Thus, you have to “listen and obey” of whatever Google say about quality website guideline.

Year 2011 is a year of Google Panda. This means a year of quality and serious articles do matter to Google. It’s not about the number of how many articles you have posted to your website. It’s about how quality your articles are. So, write a few quality articles is a lot better than many low quality ones.

The social network is Google’s attempt to change the quasi-monopoly Facebook has enjoyed in the social media space for the past five years. But Google+ will also have far-reaching implications for search. And while some of the details of how Google + will ultimately affect search remain unclear, here are the key areas to watch below.
