Submission to God

The word "submission" is yet to be understood in its full context.

There are those who believe the words of Jesus "follow me" in literal sense but more of them believe it is the essence of what Jesus said - to be like him, to be like God, open and loving towards fellow beings. Like wise, there are those ... See MoreMuslims who believe submission means just performing the rituals, whereas the majority silently believes in being like God, being in tune and balance with his creation and God who loves us all despite our shortcomings. The society is composed of both views; the problem is when one tries to impose his or her views on others. If we can learn to respect the otherness of other and accept the God given uniqueness of each one of the seven billion of us, then conflicts fade and solutions emerge.
