All for the greater glory of God!
Quote:I guess you need an immediate reminder of what Islam is. :)
Right on! Seriously, I think the reason why I can't grasp your explanations is because I don't have an Islamic mindset. I try to remain open, but as I've stated many times before, I need to rationalize EVERYTHING!!! Telling me that "the Quran says so" doesn't quite float my boat. Anyways, with your help, I think I'll get there (understanding not Islam) :thumb:
Quote:This is due to the fact that Allah wants purity of intention and purity in deed, both go hand by hand FHC, inner and outer.
Sounds good! Is hijab considered a "deed" though?
Quote:So once we humble ourselves, submit totally to Allah, and to Him exclusively, <b>in faith and in action</b>, obey Him with sincerity, we will surely feel peace in our hearts. And establishing peace in our hearts will bring about peace in our external conduct as well.
Hehe! That's what I've been saying all along :)
Quote:Instead of looking at Muslims surrounding your, why don’t you observe the life of Muhammad's pbuh wives and daughter?
Sure, why not? Please post some info on them.
By the way, I've come across many Muslims that I admire & look up to :) But my idea of a good Islamic role model might vary from yours.
Peace & blessings, Wael.
