Simple words of wisdom can give a great insight. Thats why I liked what muhammad had to say about God. He keeps it simple and something we can understand and grasp. Again seeing the similiarties from religion to religion. God is ALL AROUND US. Hes everything and anything. Hes you, hes your house, hes your everything. Okay, maybe your computer screen is literally not god, but you get what Im going for. That is why I liked this writing, is that i relate and agree with what he had to say. You know i do like to write what i feel about or agree with in the book. But, that doesn't mean Im right or wrong, its about knowing withing oneself.
"All that is the heavens and in the earth magnifies god"(45).
Oh wouldn't those science gurus out there love reading this book. I love this quote because it made me realize something that I don't think about often. God is everywhere, he is everything and the reason I am sitting here writing about the way I feel about him and Muhammad. Another marvelous quote that I enjoyed was, "Whoever knows himself knows God"(46). The reason why, is because its such a simple sentence but it gets your brain flying at a hundred miles an hour. What does he really mean by this? I feel that he is trying to say that it comes from within. If your out searching and questioning everyone else about the knowledge, and never give your chance to really think about it yourself. God is you, he is the reason your here, you finding yourself and knowing who you are and what you believe in, God wants you and your powerful brain to have faith.
We can't always look for exact answers, who knows if the earth is 40 million years old, or what it derives from, there is a reason we don't know. Because thats what faith is all about. If you knew all the answers would everyone be as faithful. I sure don't think so. What I think Muhammad is trying to get across is that God is everything and sometimes we take things for face value. I'm not trying to preach and say that what I'm saying is the way you should think, thats why religion is so great, because you can put it in your own words and thoughts. That is what god wants us to do. FIND IT FROM WITHIN.
"Do Not despise the world, for the world too is god"(46).
