NotesWhen trying to improve your observance of religious rituals (ibadat), remember that you must walk before you can run.
Set achievable goals, make them part of your routine before going to the next step.
Don’t compare where you are to others, they also had to work up to where they are and when we compare ourselves we tend to forget that.

Long time since I’ve done this style of painting. Need to loosen up my technique a little… Feel like it’s pretty tight, at the moment.

ssumi-deactivated20121203 asked: I also find your following statement very interesting: "I believe in The Qur’an being perfect, not because it has the answer to every question, but because it provides me (and my community) with the mindset to answer any question." I've always seen Quran as having answers to everything (even if nuances), but somewhere I feel you have managed to articulate what I have not been able to do myself. Quran is a book of guidance and that also entails offering/creating a certain mindset to answer Qs.
I think it’s natural for a human being who holds in their hands the words of The Almighty to believe that all questions are answered therein. It’s...

Anonymous asked: Why does the Quran describe women as fields/tilths for their men to go in to as they please? I'm referring to the common English translations of Q 2:223, which I've always felt really uncomfortable with because it's dehumanizing in a way and I'm not sure what it says about women's sexual agency. I've tried to see it as poetic symbolism but the metaphor still bothers me. I am not an Arabic-speaking Muslim so is it possible that this is just a case of nuance being lost in translation? I hope so.
Salaam alykum,
There are several issues in your question that need to be addressed, and I will try to be as concise as possible, insha Allah.
