picture in my mind

I loved tonight's liqa'. My brain is still working overtime, thinking over stuff. Have found Harun Yahya's website and other links at www.harunyahya.com. Amazing. I'm starting to seriosuly question Darwinism. Was there ever irrefutable truth of evolution (and am not just referring to monkey-human transformation, but in everything)? Have scientists actually tried isolating some fruit flies in a different environment or something and observed the formation of a new species over time? Okay, fine, the selection pressure thing makes sense: you know the story; the pepper moth, which was previously prevalent, was the displaced by the black moth in polluted industralised places because the pepper moths became easily spotted by predators on the black polluted bark of trees. But that black moth ALWAYS existed before; they simply started to dominate. But it wasn't a new species, was it? Has there ever been a new species that was formed??? I should look around some more.

Anyway, got nice quotes.

There are three indications of a person's greatness: not complaining in the face of calamity, not groaning in the face of pain, and not praising oneself. ~ Abu Darda (whose maqam I went to in Egypt! It was in the middle of a road but they didn't bring the monument down but built their train tracks and roads around it.)

Narrated K’ab bin Malik: Allah’s Messenger said, “Two hungry wolves sent in the midst of a flock of sheep are not more destructive to them than a man’s greed for wealth and fame is to his religion.” ( At-Tirmidhi)

A person asked Allah’s Messenger (saas): “What is faith?” He said: “When a good deed becomes a source of pleasure for you and an evil deed becomes a source of disgust for you, then you are a believer.” He again said to Allah’s Messenger (saas): “What is a sin?” Whereupon he said: “When something pricks your conscience, give it up.” (Tirmidhi)

Idolatry is more hidden in my Ummah than the creeping of ants across a great smooth stone on a black night... (Tirmidhi)

Those who are most aware of death and prepare themselves for it, are the wisest of people. (Fiqh-us-Sunnah, Volume 4, Number 13)

The whole world is a provision, and the best object of benefit of the world is the pious woman. (Muslim)
