Salat Quotes

“Begitulah rumus kehidupan. Dalam perkara shalat ini, terlepas dari apakah seseorang itu pendusta, pembunuh, penjahat, dia tetap harus shalat, kewajiban itu tidak luntur. Maka semoga entah di shalat yang ke-berapa, dia akhirnya benar-benar berubah. Shalat itu berhasil mengubahnya. Mamakmu pasti pernah bilang itu kepadamu.”
― Tere Liye, Pergi

“During salât (Islamic prayers) the body is metamorphosed into a manifestation of the sacred. These bodily postures are very similar to the bodily postures one observes in Hindu Hatha Yoga, which is a branch of Tantric Yoga. Islam's unitary, holistic view of the body and spirit is evident in the alchemical saying of the Shi'ite Imams, 'arwâhunâ ajsâdunâ wa-ajsâdunâ arwâhunâ' (our spirits are our bodies and our bodies are our spirits).”
― Laurence Galian, Jesus, Muhammad and the Goddess
