    Peace SarahS,

    What we think is good for us may actually be bad. What we think is bad for us may actually be good. Only God knows. Trust Him and hand over the responsibility of your life, marriage, etc. He will guide you.

    And then again, if we pray sincerely in our heart, mind (prayer should never be spoken out loud. For God knows what our mind communicates to us) God will make our life so smooth and easy. We need not worry about children upbringing, etc. as He will take care if we entrust to Him, after all it is He who brings them into existence.

    Gita

                  Wassalam welcome to this forum

                  Your story is nice one but keep pray for it and you're not alone in term "English is not first language".

                  Egypt is nice country and the first country who recognize our independence after the Japanese occupation.

                  Please don?t hesitate to write back or ask any questions.

                  Is Egypt's constitution order women to wear hijab?

                        Well, I don't know. I stayed with my brother in Egypt when he used to work there and I never wore a head scarf, and there were lots of Muslim Egyptian women who didn't either. I socialised with women who dressed like any other women in the west and weren't at all conservative.

                                      I get so touched by your welcome!

                                      I live in Stockholm, Man of Faith.

                                      As for religion is concerned, Im getting to where I?m seeing that God has no religion as we define it. There is a system of God but thats it.

                                      I mean all the names we use, like Christian, Buddhist, Muslim etc , and the rituals associated with each religion as if one way of thinking is the most correct one. I think I have been so misstaken there.
                                      These are all our own inventions.

                                      There is a natural law, and thats it.

                                      And God has through the years given us revelations/sighs/messengers to remind us of this.
                                      To know He exists, to stop corrupting, and do good, and to remember Him and try to stay close to Him.

                                      Everything else is our own inventions.

                                      It?s so simple when I write it down like this.

                                      This is where I am in my thoughts right now. I could be wrong, may God guide me and all of us to the straight path.

                                      Any thoughts?

                                      Peace

                                          This is indeed supported by AQ

                                          262 Surely those who believe; and those who are Jewish, and the Nazarenes, and the Sabians, whoever of them believes in GOD and the Last Day and does good works; they will have their recompense with their Lord, and there is no fear upon them, nor will they grieve.

                                          569 Surely those who believe; and those who are Jewish, and the Sabians, and the Nazarenes, whoever of them believes in GOD and the Last Day and does good works; then they will have nothing to fear nor will they grieve.

                                          494 O you who believe, if you go forth in the cause of GOD, you shall investigate carefully. And do not say to those who greet you with peace "You are not a believer!" You are seeking the vanity of this world; but with GOD are many riches. That is how you were before, but GOD graced you, so investigate carefully. God is expert over what you do.

                                          I've yet to hear of a religion that didn't have some version of the Golden rule in it.

                                          There are some monotheists in most any "religion." If there was one word that encompasses the Deen (to the best of my understanding) it would be monotheism. All monotheists are brothers and sisters, even if they don't recognize it. For those that aren't currently monotheist...ISA they will come to it before it is too late for them.

                                          I've heard it put that "All wars are civil wars, because all men are brothers." Perhaps so, but monotheists are a little closer to each other--or should be.

                                          To the best of my understanding, ALLAH doesn't care about religion. ALLAH has sent down a way of life for any who would be Guided.

                                          Religion is not inherently bad. This statement might be supported by the following Ayah

                                          2267 For every nation We have established rites which they are to fulfill. So do not let the matter fall into dispute. And call upon your Lord, for you are on a guidance which is straight.

                                          ALLAH knows best.

                                          peace
