Vishonter..... Here i read your wholesome thoughts :)...... thank you...it is like what I had in mind and you expressed it. I am not as eloquent a writer. I earnestly wish all these things come into practice. Bhushan..... I wish I can explain in a much better way... but my time is killing me.... ! And, let me remind you, I am still studying Islam. I will write more, I promise. There is a great media divergions involved. Islam doesn't ask its followers to hate other religions..... NEVER..will write in detail later. IM1..... Could you please give me the reasons? Just sway me away from conversion....:) santosh.... Thanks for the links.. i still have to read them though,..... i am sorry, i am very time pressed today. But thanks nevertheless. will write more after i read them. SunnyDev.... That was not really a crafted reason. i am against burkah system. i dress up fine (without burkas, or hijabs) and yet i think i am virtuous and pious. islam really doesn't say that u have to dress up in certain way to be muslim. The gist of PARDAH is to block away any evil things..... so like.... pardah can just be in eyes....thats is what i practice. i dont look up to any other male(beside the one i love) into eyes and dwell there...for example.... and during business meetings or so... where eye contact is necessary.... i do that in a rigidly offican manner. For me, that is burkah. well.... sorry.... again... i am time pressed ...will write more later. Thank you all.
