Quote for the Day

From the death of Muhammad in 632 CE until the abolition of the Ottoman Caliphate in 1924,the *ummah * lived under a continuous political structure that asserted not merely a religious identity but legal authority, territorial governance, military expansion, and socio-political hierarchy. This unbroken lineage is the spine of Islamic history. The Islamic state was not an intermittent experiment; it was a continuous, institutionalised reality. Danny Burmawi

Quote for the Day

The result is a theological structure where Allah is distant, unknowable, terrifying, and abstract, while Muhammad is proximate, emotional, imitable, and ever-present. Devotion cenrres not on the divine, but on the man who claimed to reveal it. His will becomes law. His person becomes the lens of revelation. Danny Burmawi

Quote for the Day

Islam is a total system of laws and expectations so expansive and demanding that failure is inevitable. Guilt becomes constant. But Islam offers a way to offset that failure :pledge allegiance to the faith, stand with the ummah, and oppose its enemies. And nothing signals that allegiance more loudly than standing against Israel. Danny Burmawi

Quote for the Day

Spirit-led reasoning can be defined as allowing flowing pictures and words from the Holy Spirit to guide our reasoning process. We can ask for this and seek it out by properly posturing our hearts before the Holy Spirit (see John 7:37-39; Ps. 73—David reasoned in the sanctuary of God). Mark Virkler

Quote for the Day

Two-way journaling, or simply journaling, as I use the term, is basically recording your prayers and what you sense to be God’s answers. The Psalms are an example of this process, as well as the books of the prophets and Revelation. Clearly, this is a common biblical experience. Mark Virkler
