"Firmness of heart is needed for achievement, but a firm friend does not lack friends. Be a firm friend, that you may find friends innumerable; for without friends you will be left helpless. Generally the wolf seizes his prey at the moment when a year-old sheep has strayed alone from the flock."
-Mathnawi [VI 497-498;500]
From "Jewels of Remembrance," by Rumi

Struggling to Educate and Understand this Diverse World in Which WE Live
About Me
- Human Being
- A Citizen, Of the World
- One American Muslim, trying to help educate other Americans about Islam. Education = Understanding = Tolerance. Being a moderate and educated Muslim - I wanted to offer a "place" where people could ask questions about Islam and get educated answers versus watching some idiot yell on TV and have his already ignorant words, badly translated, adding to the negative light our religion has been in since 9-11.
Peace?
