In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
158. Are they waiting to see if the angels come to them, or your Lord, or certain of the Signs of your Lord! The day that certain of the Signs of your Lord does come, no good will it do to a soul to believe in them then, if it believed not before, nor earned righteousness through its Faith. Say, "Wait you: we too are waiting."
159. As for those who divide their religion, and break up into sects, you have no part in them in the least. Their affair is with Allah. God will, in the end, tell them the truth of all they did.
160. He that does good shall have ten times as much to his credit. He that does evil shall be recompensed according to his evil. No wrong shall be done unto them.
161. Say, "Verily, my Lord has guided me to a Way that is straight, a religion of Right, the Path of Abraham, the true in faith, and he joined not gods with Allah."
162. Say, "Truly, my prayer and my service of sacrifice, my life and my death, are for Allah, the Cherisher of the worlds."
163. No partner has God. This am I commanded, and I am the first of those who bow to God's Will.
164. Say, "Shall I seek for cherisher other than Allah, when God is the Cherisher of all things? Every soul draws the results of its acts on none but itself. No bearer of burdens can bear the burden of another. Your goal in the end is towards Allah. God will tell you the truth of the things wherein you disputed."

Wait you: we too are waiting.
Verily, my Lord has guided me to a Way that is straight, a religion of Right, the Path of Abraham, the true in faith, and he joined not gods with Allah.

Most people want the Signs of God to manifest in reality before they have any faith. They want to be CERTAIN, they want something they can see, and touch. It's not enough for them to be warned that they are going to get their asses kicked, they just want to get their asses kicked. Only then will they believe. But that's not faith: that's MATERIALISM.

Letter to Julia 20110620
Have you been eating properly? I look at your photos, and sometimes I see that you are too thin, wearing a dress that's too small. One image that sticks out in my mind is an ad by Dolce and Gabbana, with 3 models (including you) in the forest- so emaciated! Do they think that's beauty? Or art? Such deathly thin models DO NOT flatter the clothes that they are wearing. If they want to show off a size 2 dress, then get a small model! Someone who's 5'2"! Don't force a model who is 5'11" into a size 2! I see everywhere many flattering photos of small women with beautiful clothes. Don't they know how to make people look good in photographs? Keep the girls healthy, and fit them with the right size!
Anyway, the message today is about those who forbid the sustenance of others. They come up with excuses to restrict food and income, so they can hog and control, for whatever reason. Some of them behave like mobsters, then expect others to consider them as civilized, and "developed"! And like those fashion photos, they think that other people don't notice. I remember Phoenix, Arizona which is close to Mexico. There is a huge number of undocumented aliens close to the border. The financial condition of many Mexicans is frustratingly poor, because most of the area is controled by mobsters. Owning a small business means getting a loan from the mob, because they are the ones with the money- drug money, that is. So these people run to the north to escape the iron fist, but they are illegal aliens. So it is easy for the iron fist to follow them. Though it's not as easy to enforce mob rule in USA as opposed to Mexico, it still gets done.
This is definitely a god complex, to forcibly restrict the sustenance of others. And anybody with a god complex (or follows a tyrant) certainly doesn't believe in God, because they hold others as equals to God: namely themselves. And they get away with it because they impose fear. However, there is always a bigger gun, and it could be pointing at them from thousands of miles away. And God holds the biggest gun of all.
Anyway, I would like you to stay at a size 7. I think you are naturally thin anyway, and filling out a size 7 is most flattering for you, and probably most healthy too. Go out and enjoy food with your buddies. The simple rules are: no pig, no carrion, no blood, and make sure you say, "In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful" before the first bite/sip. Have a ribeye steak for me! I can't afford meat right now, but the house my mother gave me has plenty of fruit trees, so I'm OK for now, alhamdulillah. Please pray for us, my beloved.

Qur'an 20110620
In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
142. Of the cattle are some for burden, and some for meat. Eat what Allah has provided for you, and follow not the footsteps of Satan, for he is to you an avowed enemy.
143. Eight in pairs, of sheep a pair, and of goats a pair. Say, "Has God forbidden the two males, or the two females, or which the wombs of the two females enclose? Tell me with knowledge if you are truthful."
144. Of camels a pair, and of oxen a pair. Say, "Has God forbidden the two males, or the two females, or which the wombs of the two females enclose? Were you present when Allah ordered you such a thing? But who does more wrong than one who invents a lie against Allah, to lead men astray without knowledge? For Allah guides not people who do wrong."
145. Say, "I find not in the Message received by me by inspiration any forbidden to be eaten by one who wishes to eat it, unless it be dead meat, or blood poured forth, or the flesh of swine, for it is an abomination, or what is impious, on which a name has been invoked other than Allah's." But, if a person is forced by necessity, without willful disobedience, nor trangressing due limits, your Lord is Oft-Forgiving, most Merciful.
146. For those who followed the Jewish Law, We forbade all with undivided hoof, and We forbade them the fat of the ox and the sheep, except what adheres to their backs or their entrails, or is mixed up with a bone. This in recompense for their willful disobedience, for We are True.
147. If they accuse you of falsehood, say, "Your Lord is full of Mercy, All-Embracing." But from people in guilt, never will God's wrath be turned back.
148. Those who give partners will say, "If Allah had wished, we would not have given partners to God, nor would our fathers, nor would we have had any taboos." So did their ancestors argue falsely, until they tasted of Our wrath. Say, "Have you any knowledge? If so, produce it before us. You follow nothing but conjecture, you do nothing but lie."
149. Say, "With Allah is the argument that reaches home. If it had been God's Will, God could indeed have guided you all."
150. Say, "Bring forward your witnesses to prove that Allah did forbid so and so." If they bring such witnesses, be not you amongst them, nor follow you the vain desires of such as treat Our Signs as falsehoods, and such as believe not in the Hereafter, for they hold others as equals with their Guardian-Lord.
151. Say, "Come, I will rehearse what Allah has prohibited you from." Join not anything as equal with God. Be good to your parents. Kill not your children on a plea of want: We provide sustenance for you and them. Come not nigh to shameful deeds, whether open or secret. Take not life, which Allah has made sacred, except by way of justice and law. Thus does God command you, that you may learn wisdom.

Letter to Julia 20110618
But at best, nothing has changed since the time of prophet Muhammad (peace be on him). Many "Muslims" believe that Islam has advanced since the prophet (peace be on him) passed away, but he was the purest Muslim, and without him we have become corrupt. Rather, things have deteriorated since prophet Muhammad (peace be on him), as we are nearing Judgement Day. Humans still oppress, at all levels, in the name of power. Humans are using Islam as a tool to further their personal agenda. Instead, we humans are either the tools, or the fodder. There is a giant army amassing, or did you not notice?
We are all replacable, my Julia. Whatever power we think we have, can be transferred to others. Especially from the perspective of God, whatever talent or beauty we have can be transferred to others. We come from the lives of other people, thus we have our successors. Don't think the politics of where you are is better than where I am, Julia. It is the same everywhere, people are fooled by the material.
But to be positive, there is a balance for those who do good, so let that be us, my Julia. Hey Julia, don't fall off that skyscraper with all those diamonds around your neck. Here's my hand, let me catch you, my love. Please have faith in Allah, and look to the Hereafter, then if you believe in our love, Allah will bring us together. InsyaAllah.

133. Your Lord is Self-Sufficient, Full of Mercy. If it were God's Will, God could destroy you, and in your place appoint whom God Will as your successors, even as God raised you up from the posterity of other people.
134. All that has been promised to you will come to pass, nor can you frustrate it.
135. Say, "O my people! Do whatever you can. I will do. Soon will you know who it is whose end will be, in the Hereafter. Certain it is that the wrongdoers will not prosper."

Letter to Julia 20110616
Oh Julia my beloved, I was off by a year in the events I stated in my last letter. I'm certainly getting old. Perhaps Allah is making me forget some of the past, and focus on the future. Certainly the past is filled with darkness, with a stairway to the abyss. But how can I forget, when human nature remains the same?
Well, I'd certainly rather be having fun with Julia. How are you, my sweetie? Are you taking good care of your beautiful body? Please make sure you are eating properly, since you are working so hard. Your bosses may not agree, but I would like you to stay at a size 7. Yum! But please eat adequately, and remember to invoke the name of Allah before the first bite/sip. As my mate, there is no such thing for us as a private meal, especially at this stage of our love. We have no privacy, so please be a good girl, open and secret! Don't eat the food on which Allah's name has not been pronounced, like food prepared for pagan rituals. People are going to trick you with this, for they intend to corrupt you, so don't obey them.
Of course you are going to have enemies, especially considering how beautiful you are and how powerful you've become. Sad to say, enemies behave most reliable- you can always count on enemies to act the same way, huh? Be aware of the intelligent and smooth talkers, who try to manipulate you with "logic", either directly or by innuendo (like mass media). This includes those who whisper at you from the nothingness. Ignore them and their words. Yes, it's easy to ignore them- just walk around in a divine spotlight of purity, which sets up a force field against their words. Kind of like in Star Wars.
Please forgive me for not writing as regularly as before. Right now, it's 50 cents a blog plus a journey downtown every time, so I try to write my love letter and Qur'an blog at the same time. Interesting. It's like being caught up in a time warp that sends me back to the active days of prophet Muhammad (peace be on him). Julia, I love you and I want to marry you! Now please excuse me, as I have to go and feed the Zam.

Qur'an 20110616
In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
109. They swear their strongest oaths by Allah, that if a Sign came to them, by it they would believe. Say, "Certainly, Signs are in the Power of Allah, but what would make you realise that if Signs came, they will not believe?"
110. We shall turn to their hearts and their eyes, even as they refused to believe in the first instance. We shall leave them in their trespasses, to wander in distraction.
111. Even if We did send unto them angels, and the dead did speak to them, and We gathered together all things before their very eyes, they are not the ones to believe, unless it is in Allah's Plan. But most of them ignore.
112. Likewise did We make for every messenger an enemy- evil ones among men and jinns, inspiring each other with flowery discourses by way of deception. If your Lord had so planned, they would not have done it. So leave them and their inventions alone.
113. To such let the hearts of those incline, who have no faith in the Hereafter. Let them delight in it, and let them earn from it what they may.
114. Say, "Shall I seek for judge other than Allah? When God it is who has sent unto you the Book, explained in detail." They know full well to whom We have given the Book, that it has been sent down from your Lord in Truth. Never be then of those who doubt.
115. The Word of your Lord does find its fulfillment in truth and justice. None can change God's Words, for God is the One who Hears, and Knows all.
116. Were you to follow the common run of those on earth, they will lead you away from the Way of Allah. They follow nothing but conjecture, they do nothing but lie.
117. Your Lord knows best who strays from God's Way. God knows best who they are that receive guidance.
