those men are pretenders
who think

“لست من أولئك الذين لا يعدو ايمانهم ان يكون خوفاً من يوم الحساب , ولاتعدو صلاتهم أن تكون سجوداً .طريقتي في الصلاة؟ أتأمل وردة ,أعد النجوم ,أتدلّه بجمال الخليقة بكمال نظامها وترتيبها ,بالانسان أجمل ما أبدع الخلّاق ,بعقله المتعطش الى المعرفة ,بقلبه المتعطش الى الحب, بحواسه كل حواسه متيقظة كانت أو مترعة .”
― Amin Maalouf, Samarkand

“We all need role models in different seasons, people we look to who bring encouragement for the journey. Every role model but One will fail. If we get up-close we will see that each one is imperfect, except the One perfect lamb who was crucified for our sins. He was the scapegoat. He was the rejected One.”
