REFLECTING ON GETTING THE WRONG KIND OF ATTENTION BECAUSE YOU SOUGHT ATTENTION (SEE ALSO: BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR)

I slowed down the car as I realized what had slipped my tongue. In my zeal to insult that elderly gentleman’s ways, I had tried to present myself as more modern. And more Muslim. Ever try to get the best of both worlds? Well, I had just tried. God knew if I succeeded.

My ego had driven me to defend myself in a way I had never defended myself before. And all I had done was shove myself, perhaps unwittingly, closer to God. If Islam asked for a hold over society, and this society was Westernized, why would it matter if the Islam was Westernized?  

 I figured someone in the Party had probably thought through all this before.

I turned on the radio and drove home faster. I had to get home. Home was safer than these roads. They were, after all, just like Western highways. But I didn’t think that made a difference anymore.  

PHUNDECTIONS

PHilosophical fUNDamntalist reflECTIONS

The idol of your self is the mother of all idols.

The material idol is only a snake;

while this inner idol is a dragon.

It is easy to break an idol,

but to regard the self as easy to subdue is a mistake.

[qala rumi]

hizb fazilat. unsettling secularists everywhere.

Something to Ask...
I seek the forgiveness of Allah, there is no true god except Allah, the Ever-Living, the Self-Subsisting, and I turn to Him in repentance.
