“You may be wondering what is a Muslim doing participating in a journey like this, well at first even I was hesitant, but it’s interesting how I still managed to find myself in the journey, the answer is coming up in a few brief moments.”

My reply:

My “school of thought” concerning the use of non-Islamic resources used to strengthen one’s faith or improve one’s life is that it’s unhealthy to limit one’s self. At one time in Muslim history there were over 100 schools of jurisprudence. Diversity of thought within Islam has always been there but it is modern day Muslims who have debased themselves with the scourge of extremism. Our history as Muslims the world over demonstrates an interdependence between various civilizations.

I often listen to a science of mind teacher http://www.marianne.com/ and I clearly can find ayahs and hadith to support many of her teachings. Actually, I’ve heard quote Rumi and some other Muslim sages. I believe that several Catholics used the work of Islamic Philosophers in their own academies.

Alhamdilal!

“ May Allah s.w.t. grant us power, victory, and authority over our ego’s, our flesh, our weaknesses, our faults, our mistakes, our ignorance, and the evil of our own soul. May Allah s.w.t. elevate our rank before his eyes and enable us to see everything through his eyes so that we may do his will and not our own.”

Amen

Right on time!
