		<description>I am muslim and there are lots of wrong beliefs and superstitions in Islam.
There is no fatwa, no veil for women, no religion compulsery in Islam.
Only God can judge about life and death.
The Quran is considered as the God&#039;s word by all Muslims, but the very large majority of them don&#039;t follow what it&#039;s taught in it.
They prefer to follow the hadiths (that come more than 200 years after the Prophet&#039;s dead), the clerics (there is no authority in Islam but God only).
So if they only accept the God&#039;s Book there won&#039;t be these troubles with the muslim&#039;s world...

[Quran 6:114] Shall I seek other than GOD as a source of law, when He has revealed to you this book fully detailed? Those who received the scripture recognize that it has been revealed from your Lord, truthfully. You shall not harbor any doubt. 
[Quran 6:115] The word of your Lord is complete, in truth and justice. Nothing shall abrogate His words. He is the Hearer, the Omniscient.

Did the Creator of all universe, the visible and the invisible, the Creator of our ability to think, the One who controls every thing, controls every dust&#039;s location, did He forget something when He created Life with all creatures ?

He is beyond our understanding but nothing escapes from His attention, even our most secret thoughts.

Thanks,</description>

		<description>Thanks Jennie for the enlightenment article.
Though I am a clergyman through your writing I learn more about fatwa among the Muslims. Be more fruitful in writing inspiring and encouraging articles.
