Quote:Looks like you're not <i>seeking</i> Him after all. You are <i>looking</i> for a god to bow down to your conception of Him. God doesn't conform to what man wants him to be. But you must conform to what He wants you to be. If not this side of the grave, then certainly you will conform on the other side.
<b>When his Lord said unto him: Surrender! he said: I have surrendered to the Lord of the Worlds.</b> 2:131
Quote:Not at all. Did I ever say I was 'Seeking' a God?

Quote:<b>Lo! religion with Allah is The Surrender to His will and guidance...And if they argue with thee, O Muhammad, say: I have surrendered my purpose to Allah and so have those who follow me. And say unto those who have received the Scripture and those who read not: Have ye too surrendered? If they surrender, then truly they are rightly guided, and if they turn away, then it is thy duty only to convey the message unto them. Allah is Seer of His bondmen.</b>
<i>"... since I began to seek God."</i>
Why did you cease?
