"Shari'a aims to protect human dignity and human rights within the context of humanity's social rituals and its stewardship of the Earth. Islam forbids tyranny, prostitution, suicide, drug abuse anything that treats a human being as an object. A fa twa is determined under all these rules and goals, so that human beings can live more happily, safely, and peacefully." Ali Gomaa(Grand Mufti of Egypt)

"Faith, to me, is not a leap but an affirmation of personal experience. With Islam I gave myself permission to live in the world as I saw it, not as I was told to see it."
