i tell ppl who ask me about Islam: want to know what islam is about? practice being a muslim for 1 month straight. pray 5x a day. read Qur'an at least 20 minutes a day. listen to islamic lectures by hamza yusuf or tariq ramadan or other imams for at least 1 hour each day…. bam. before you know it, you know what sort of msg and meaning and life energy islam gives you… want to learn about buddhism and what it means? do the same thing, and practice the religion for a whole month or two…. i mean, makes sense… right? it is so practical. ppl say islam or christianity is a religion of this or that… well how about we stop all the speculation and you practice the religion truly for what it asks of it’s followers personally… then you will see first-hand how it changes the heart, and mind. the effects it has upon the spiritual and material self………. some religions are for some ppl. others for others. and none for some. to each their own. journal your experience and feelings day by day, or week by week. that will give you your brightest reflections on the impact such tradition has on the self (whether it be Islam, Buddhism, Satanism, etc).
