Thank you for posting this, Islamic Teacher.
I was raised in the United Methodist Church tradition/culture to be a religious leader. My love of science always made me need better answers than we were "created" I needed to know how cells and other things work.
The message you worded as "seek knowledge in all fields, including science" gave me respect for Prophet Muhammad from the "essence of science"
Agnosticism as an ancient scientist. The religion and ritual part that flourished after him is something else in addition to Agnosticism where I would need to have been raised in that culture instead, to consider myself Islamic.
Your posting this in my opinion (as I and I think both the Prophet and Thomas Huxley would agree) qualifies you as a "Islamic Agnostic" and "Agnostic Muslim" by being both at the same time. I could only hope for an "honorary Muslim" and a "keep up up the good work" for at least being able to make it halfway there!
Even though Jesus is in my opinion a Prophet (not deity on Earth in a human form) I could maybe say I'm an Agnostic Christian, but at this point in time I have to be honored by just a "honorary Christian" that "needs more work" status that came from someone like Evangelical Methodist
Reverend Robert Schenck who I respect for his honesty and political bravery against Christian Nationalists who hate us all.
My experience at the Islamic Board that goes 16 years back in time and what you recently posted here makes perfect sense together along with what scientist Thomas Huxley defined as existing and called Agnosticism. It's maybe now up to Agnostics (with no disrespect to Islam intended) whether to honor Thomas as the Prophet of Agnosticism, as at least a way to explain what a Prophet is: a wise inspired teacher of their time and age not God/Allah.
Our examples together can help overcome the misconception elsewhere that Agnostics are supposed to be Atheists who ridicule Prophet Muhammad. Agnosticism never was and never should be used that way, but you know how things change after US social media and politics gets a hold of them. Your help setting things right is very appreciated. I love this topic.
