Listen carefully, if you don’t appreciate the awesome quote below, I’m going to issue a fatwa encouraging any pious person who sees you on the street to pinch your butt really hard until your eyeballs pop out.
Seriously, you better do as I say, or else expect that bad-ass fatwa to be issued first thing in the morning tomorrow. And if I’m too lazy to issue it, I’ll just pay someone to do it.
After all, it’s not like many of those cute fatwa issuers - including those in al-Azhar - aren’t on the payroll of their governments anyways. So hey, I’m sure they’ll have no problems accepting money from me in return for some awesome fatwa fun.
Don’t say I didn’t warn you. Now read…
“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.” - Jalal ad-Din Muhammad Rumi, the super cool Sufi mystic lover.

Beautiful sentence
Read an interesting and very relevant [a href="http://www.economist.com/books/displayStory.cfm?story_id=13484677&source=hptextfeature"]book review[/a href]. Did anyone read the book itself? Did you, ya Drima? It sounds right up your alley.
yes… truly beautiful.
That Rumi dude, they just don’t make Muslims like that no more…..(or Christians, for that matter). No wonder sufism is frowned upon by wahabis et al. Careful, friend.
LTNS, ya HH
This blog amazes me. I’m using it for a research paper on Sudanese opinion of Americans and American government - but I will continue to read. This is GREAT. beautiful quote.
