Letter to Julia 20131104

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

As I told you before my dearest Julia, when Allah grants me the wealth I need to be married inshaAllah, I will proceed to buy the land for this little house I live in now, plus the land for Casa de Julia inshaAllah.  Then I will renovate this little house to make room for you, then I will send someone to get you, and we will marry inshaAllah.  Then we will stay in this little house while we supervise the building of Casa de Julia.  When Casa de Julia is completed, then I will marry Erin inshaAllah.  Let's see: I need to build a master bedroom, Julia's bathroom, tile the entire floor, do some roof repair, replace the ceiling because it's hideous, paint outside and inside, make the doorways taller, install a washer and dryer for Julia, put in a new sink and counter top with a new stove top and ventilation system, do some basic furnishings, and I think that should do it for this little house inshaAllah.  I have to confess that I love this little house.  When Allah grants me ownership inshaAllah, I wont ever part with it until I die.  When Casa de Julia is completed inshaAllah, I'll use this little house as my studio and to house my cats.  I really love my cats, Julia.  I'm a lonely person but hey, I gave the music to Allah, so there it is.  I love you and I need you Julia, and I beg you to please be patient with my cats.  And please be constant in your prayers.

Ah Erin!  It's nearly time for this year's Victoria's Secret fashion show.  I had to stop watching that show because my Julia wasn't in it anymore, but now I'm going to be marrying Erin inshaAllah, I have to start watching that show again.  I'm looking forward to seeing you, Erin.  I want to make sure you're taking good care of your health, that you're not too thin.  I had some photos where your face was so gaunt, I thought it was photo manipulation.  I has to delete them, because I couldn't look at them, because it broke my heart.  we all want you to be beautiful, and you are beautiful, but I want to make sure you are healthy.  Please take good care of yourself and your body, OK?  Please eat properly, and get sufficient rest.  I love you, and I need you.

Qur'an 20131104

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

88.  This is the Guidance of Allah.  God gives that Guidance to whom God pleases of God's worshipers.  If they were to join other gods with God, all that they did would be in vain for them.

89.  These were the men to whom We gave the Book, and Authority, and Prophethood.  If these reject them, behold!  We shall entrust their charge to a new people who reject them not.

90.  Those were who received Allah's Guidance.  Copy the Guidance they received.  Say, "No reward for this do I ask of you.  This is no less than a Message for the nations."

91.  No just estimate of Allah do they make when they say, "Nothing does Allah send down to man."  Say, "Who then sent down the Book which Moses brought?  A light and guidance to man, but you make it into sheets for show, while you conceal much.  Therein were you taught which you knew not, neither you nor your fathers."  Say, "Allah."  Then leave them to plunge in vain discourse and trifling.

The Cattle 6:88-91

No reward for this do I ask of you.  This is no less than a Message for the nations.

Who then sent down the Book which Moses brought?  A light and guidance to man, but you make it into sheets for show, while you conceal much.  Therein were you taught which you knew not, neither you nor your fathers.

Allah.
