Is This Believing in Allah (Swt)?Our daily lives, family meetings, concerts and chats include so many statements which harm the “oneness” belief of the human. For example some lyrics of songs: “You created me”, “I worship you”. Some scientists say “the nature created” for some things. We must fear Allah (swt) and abstain from the statements and behaviors which violate the tawhid (the belief of “oneness”). Allah is an absolute reality. Allah is excluded from space and time. Therefore, we must abstain from describing Allah (swt) with words that assign locations for Him, such as “Allah sees over us”.

Claims to be of a “miracle mind” is really the ego, forgiveness-to-destroy and spiritual specialness. The ego speaks first and the loudest. Love is quiet; and love is expressed in this world through right-minded forgiveness.

Holding the Line of Obedience When Under Spiritual AttackSPIRITUAL warfare is a covert operation that sets itself in the battle of the everyday, and it comes dressed in myriad form of camouflage. It comes disguised as a challenge, in the banal, as something seen as sinister, and even sometimes as criticism from unsuspecting persons. Whenever we are tempted to give up we should ask ourselves the cursory question, “Could this be an attack?” If we answer that question as a possibility for the affirmative, we should be prepared to invest some time going deeper into the whys and wherefores before we entertain quitting.
Angry At God?“If you have never had any distractions you don’t know how to pray. For the secret of prayer is a hunger for God and for the vision of God, a hunger that lies far deeper than the level of language or affection. And a man whose memory and imagination are persecuting him with a crowd of useless or even evil thoughts and images may sometimes be forced to pray far better, in the depths of his murdered heart, than one whose mind is swimming with clear concepts and brilliant purposes and easy acts of love.
