Epistemology and Islam
The philisophical study of knowledge; to identify the true meaning of the word Ilm.
'Ilm'. How I wished I was listenin' closely to al-Habib. I did. Though, I didn't quite understand. Perhaps later, I might.
And I also, I made a great realization. Again.
Honestly, I cud say that I'm thinkin' very differently now. Wat I tink abt in the last few years are quite the contrary of now. The development of logic.
Then again, how does a mind work...with a heart, so tainted?
- 'Oh, Guide me Ya so that I do not become disillusioned.'

Tarim@Heart
When the writer writes
his idiosyncracy; emotions poured
and the quill glides o'er
the hart; his undying love
so when the writer writes...
In the valley...Tarim
Souls therin blessed by Allah
and upon righteous men
Them, pearls in this world
of tainted perdition
And of his mercy, Muhammad
peace be upon him
his sons,their sons and
the House; our beloved ones
Peace...this till the break of dawn
From various lands of far
harken here in the desert bare
Seekers of ilm; students of teachers.
Centuries die, yet knowledge thrives
Scholars of legend, one allegiance
Cease the seven evils; that evil eye
the black veil slipped
At Mustafa's house; to sanctify
so hear - this Fellowship;
pure of heart, heart of gold
So said the mountains bleak
'O Muslims, remember. For yonder
death cometh; from Hud's depth.
Bliss to the faithfuls, fey on others. '
And they crumble like the sands of time.

At-Tariq
In the name of Allah, most gracious, most merciful...
By the Sky and the Night-Visitant (therein),
And what will explain to thee what the Night-Visitant is?
(It is) the Star of piercing brightness;
There is no soul but has a protector over it.
Now let man but think from what he is created!
He is created from a drop emitted,
Proceeding from between the backbone and the ribs:
Surely (Allah) is able to bring him back (to life)!
The Day that (all) things secret will be tested,
(Man) will have no power, and no helper.
By the Firmament which returns (in its round),
And by the Earth which opens out (for the gushing of springs or the sprouting of vegetation),
Behold this is the Word that distinguishes (Good from Evil):
It is not a thing for amusement.
As for them, they are but plotting a scheme,
And I am planning a scheme.
Therefore grant a delay to the Unbelievers: give respite to them gently (for a while).
