"Allah is the light of the heavens and the earth"

"Allah is the light of the heavens and the earth; a likeness of His light is as a niche in which is a lamp, the lamp is in a glass, and the glass is as it were a brightly shining star, lit from a blessed olive-tree, neither eastern nor western, the oil whereof almost gives light although fire touch it not-- light upon light-- Allah guides to His light whom He pleases, and Allah sets forth parables for men, and Allah is Cognizant of all things." -[Quran; 24.35]


It saddens me to see how the vast population of our society have become caught up in this false pretence, living life to the max and never stopping to think about the real situation of their lives, or more importantly the lives of those around them, both immmediate and distant. It further saddens me to find that many mulsims have also become caught up in this whirlwind 'matrix'. When will we be able to see past our own noses, not into someone elses business, but into a book of infinite wisdom and truth. I know i have a lot to do. [as u can c by my last post below, lol].
