About me
http://arif.amplify.com/

“In Islamic belief, knowledge is two-fold. There is that revealed through the Holy Prophet (s.a.s.) and that which man discovers by virtue of his own intellect. Nor do these two involve any contradiction, provided man remembers that his own mind is itself the creation of God. Without this humility, no balance is possible. With it, there are no barriers” (Aga Khan IV, 16 March 1983, Aga Khan University, Karachi, Pakistan)

Indians vow to marry sex workers
arifsali
by arifsali  Today 3:49 PM   
 This story is really unconventional. Adds to the syncretic traditions of the continent. The group contains multi-religious members, Sikhs, Hindus, Muslims. The leader's name is Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh (Ram is a common Hindu name, Rahim is a common Muslim name and Gurmeet is common Sikh name). The group mostly offers community services, social welfare and spiritual leadership. And taking on prostitutes as wives - en mass - is unheard of. The Dera Sacha Sauda (DSS) Wow.

arifsali
by arifsali  11-26-2009    2
 Americans are Christians, Jews, Hindus, agnostics, atheists, and anything else in between -- but Americans are also Muslims, millions of them, and Islam has now become integral to what the distinguished American sociologist Robert Bellah termed our "civil religion."

A Dream Interpretation: Tuneups for the Brain
arifsali
by arifsali  11-13-2009   
 “I argue that dreaming is not a parallel state but that it is consciousness itself, in the absence of input from the senses,” Once people are awake, he argued, their brain essentially revises its dream images to match what it sees, hears and feels " the dreams are “corrected” by the senses.
