(desi style!) - That was brilliant - was looking forward to seeing this after the the board discussion/post. Again, so wonderfully constructed and combining two things that we love dearly, P&P and our beloved al-Islam - the latter of which I think we can agree, needs more of that love. As BrKhalid's argument implies - we need to nurture our Faith more to put it less elegantly, - that collectively, we may be too passive in our "Muslimness" and subsequently to our duty to the ultimate Object of our Affection: the Creator. Jazak'Allahu Khairan dear BrKhalid. Awesome stuff. Vah! (desi style!) – That was brilliant – was looking forward to seeing this after the the board discussion/post.

It really reminds me of the quote, "May Allah have mercy on the one who gives me the gift of seeing my own faults". There are few people who see things that way. may Allah reward you for an interesting and insightful post :) as salaamu alaykum,
