Letter to Julia 20130514

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

Hi there again, my love.  How are you feeling today, Julia?  It's a wild and crazy world out there, isn't it?  Conspiracies everywhere.  Just be righteous, be faithful, and put your trust in Allah.

I've been in a clammy mood lately.  My Mom cooked up some of those clams I told you about, you know, the "snails of a thousand brains".  I couldn't get enough of them, so I bought myself a kilo of the clams at the night market last night.  Oh Julia, clam broth is SO powerful.  I browned up some garlic and onions, then chilli paste and water, and something to add slight sourness, a touch of sugar, and then let the clams boil away in the mix.  I only bought a kilo because I didn't think I could put down two kilos, but now that they're all gone, I should have bought two kilos.  But nobody loves a fat astronaut.  Hey, would you like to try some?  How about I spoon up some of the broth with a clam in a half shell, and spoon feed you?  My darling?

Qur'an 20130514

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

1.  Say, "God is Allah, the One and Only."

2.  "Allah, the Eternal, Absolute."

3.  "God begets not, nor is God begotten."

4.  "And there is none like unto God."

The Purity of Faith  112:1-4

Sincerity.  How sincere are you in your relationship with God?

Do you conduct your religion mostly for the sake of conforming?

Do you conduct your religion mostly for the sake of being seen by other people?
