If a non muslim came up to you and asked “how do you know islam is the true way of life?” what would be your answer?
My answer would be that to be Islam answers the personal problems of a individual, we all know that as humans we may be the most powerful species on earth thanks to our rationale facualty, even so, we still have our limitations. And so by submitting, and building a connection with the Supreme Originator, you have firm servitude and dependancy in a being that is present with you at all times. Also, Islam doesn't have a racial class complex like some religions (hinduism, judaism) nor does it have ironies (christianity), it is simple and logical at it's foundational pillar, that there is a reason why man has the intellect whereas all the other animals don't, that reason being the earth has been made subject to us, and we ultimately have the potential to become conquering powerful human beings. All of this is possible if one firstly conquers oneself, then one's enviroment, and during this process one will attain ranks, it is during this process that what was initially a hope-based belief will become cemented when one will begin experiencing true dreams.
If you died tomorrow would you fear it? Explain your reasons
Yes, and no, the yes is because sometimes I feel I could have done more with my time. The no is because I know that I have no doubt in my belief in Allah and in the final judgement, and I also have firm belief that he is Ar-rahman.
What gives you happiness/pleasure/joy in life?
When I am in a state of conciousness and deep reflecting, even when walking about, it brings everything to life, you notice all the subtleties in life, like the wind bristling through the trees.
15 years from now what would you have like to have accomplished?
Materialistic-wise, I don't know. In 15 years I would like to have a decent-sized family, and be self-sufficient without having to depend on any international form of banking or governing for sustenance or survival, this means controlling my own source of water, knowing where my food comes from, and then leaving this for my children when I die.
