I am new to this forum and i think the statements below probably best describe my sentiments.
"my country is the world my religion is to do good".
Thomas Paine
Iqbal->>
Rise above sectional interests and private ambitions... Pass from matter to spirit. Matter is diversity; spirit is light, life and unity.
Destiny is the prison and chain of the ignorant. Understand that destiny like the water of the Nile: Water before the faithful, blood before the unbeliever.
Given character and healthy imagination, it is possible to reconstruct this world of sin and misery into a veritable paradise.
Thou didst create the night, but I made the lamp. Thou didst create
clay, but I made the cup. Thou didst create the deserts, mountains and forests, I produced the orchards, gardens and groves. It is I who made the glass out of stone, and it is I who turn a poison into an antidote.
But to rationalize faith is not to admit the superiority of philosophy
over religion.
Everything that possesses life dies if it has to live in uncongenial surroundings.

To sum it up it is sufficent to say i believe in humanist philosiphies as reconciled with my faith islam.
