"All of the members of this cell shared the same religious convictions,
an Islamic lifestyle, a feeling of being out of place in unfamiliar cultural
surroundings that they were not used to."
Tasvir-e-Kainaat Ka Aks Hai ALLAH...
Dil Ko jo Jaga De Wo Ehsas Hai ALLAH...
Ae Bande-Momin Tera Dil kyu Udaas Hai,
Har pal har Lamha Tere Paas Hai *ALLAH*..

"God has editing rights over our prayers. He will...

Ishwar Se Kuch Maangne Par Na Mile To Usse Naraz Na Hona..

that when we see the image of indescribable and
unutterable desolation - of loneliness, of poverty and misery,
the end of all things, or their extreme - then rises in our mind the thought of God.
There come times when I have nothing more to tell God.
If I were to continue to pray in words,
I would have to repeat what I have already said.
At such times it is wonderful to say to God,
May I be in Thy presence, Lord?
I have nothing more to say to Thee, but
do love to be in Thy presence."
To St. Paul, stripes, stones, shipwrecks, and
thorns in the flesh were religious experiences; to Judas Iscariot,
the daily companionship of Jesus of Nazareth was not.
"You have a combination of legitimate and
deeply foul religious objection with political opportunism and
part of this growing problem between the western world and Islamic world."
God is a child who amuses himself,
going from laughing to crying for no reason,
each day reinventing the world to the chagrin
if hair-splitters, pedants, and preachers,
who try to teach God his job as Creator.
