my friend in the desert

 

 

He who pursues the road of knowledge, god will direct to the road of paradise… the brightness of a learned man compared to a mere worshiper is like that of the full moon compared to all the stars… obtain knowledge; its possessor can distinguish right from wrong; it shows the way to heaven; it befriends us in the desert and in solitude, and when we are friendless; it is our guide to happiness it gives us strength in misery; it is an ornament to friends, protection against enemies… the scholars ink is holier then the martyr’s blood… seeking knowledge is required of every Muslim…

Good entry. I love that you show that we are not really different from christian and muslim. Brother on the same path and fighting about weather the left side or the right side of the path is better.
