The word “Islam” bears, within its meaning, the following two definitions:
1. Linguistic Meaning: This is the general meaning in Arabic usage, implying absolute submission, surrender and obedience that is obeying the injunctions of the ruler without objection. Before Islam came as a formal religion . The word was used to denote the above meaning, without attaching to it any ideological or conventional context.
2. Idiomatic Meaning: The Holy Qur’an defines Islam as the Message of Prophet Mohammed (saw). Although Islam was the theme of all preceding divine messages, the word was chosen as a particular title denoting the Almighty’s final revelation to mankind. In fact the Qur’an transformed the word “Islam” from its linguistic meaning to the idiomatic meaning. Still there remains the common implication in both usages- the linguistic and the idiomatic – that is submission and obedience, since Islam is the religion of voluntary submission to Allah’s Will, the obeying of His commands and surrendering to His Will without the least objection .
Thus, the religion which Mohammed (saw) brought to humanity was called “Islam”. It has since been used as a proper title for the Message preached by the Seal of Messengers and the word acquired has particular religious, legislative and devotional implications. Formerly the world did not enjoy these dimensions being void of any religious context except that denoting mere submission, obedience and surrender in the hitherto obscure language, spoken by an insignificant desert people.

“Iman-Islam” refers to that state of being when one Never Hurts nor kills the life of another in any way whatsoever. A state in which neither the hearts nor the lives of other beings are harmed. And every conceivable life form is a supreme expression of that essential Purity which may also be described by another term, Islam. “
Concerning (meaning here: Relating to) Rapid Conversation Subject Changes:
“Madness is to think of too many things in succession too fast, or of one thing too exclusively” –Voltaire
“It is only imperfection that complains of what is imperfect. The more perfect we are, the more gentle and quiet we become toward the defects of others .” –Fenelon (Notice: Fenelon wrote ‘more gentle’ instead of ‘gentler’ to prove this point) :)

Follow the way of LOVE and eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophecy. For anyone who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to Allah. But everyone who prophesies speaks to men for Strengthening (Unity), Encouragement, and Comfort. He who speaks in a tongue (other languages) edifices himself, but he who prophesies edifices Allah!
Allah is the Wise, the Beautiful Al-Jasmeen, and the Subtle and Allah expects us to shape the WORLD in Allah’s Image.
“ There are many things (experiences) in the life of a Sufi, but the greatest is to have a tendency to (or ‘towards’) friendship. This is expressed in the form of TOLERANCE and FORGIVENESS in the form of service and trust.
In whatever form he may express it, this is the central theme: the constant desire to prove one’s love for humanity and to be the FRIEND of ALL. “ –Sufi Message 10:71-78
“Words are inadequate to explain the idea of Allah”
“Nothing in the affairs of men is worthy of great anxiety “ – Plato
We should have the kind of embrace that draws all children to our hearts with love. We have nothing else to give others, only our heart. When we give our hearts, we emit that Love. At once people hunger will cease and they will be filled with Love, Compassion, and a Beautiful Taste.
Never REVEAL or LOOK INTO someone who doesn’t reveal it about themselves. Let others talk for themselves, which is all they want to reveal about themselves so don’t look anymore further into that person. This is out of courtesy and avoiding relationship accidents.
“ The word “Community” is more than just a gray sociological description. It is an Allah term, designed be the Creator of children to water their souls and enhance their spirits as they grow. To ignore this is to sow seeds of dysfunction and future trauma. To welcome the young into the center of our lives is to enrich not only them but ourselves as well. “ (as well = also) -Dr Wess Stafford
If you were made strong, it was so you could help the weak. If just you were courageous, it was so you could protect the frightened. If you have, you give.” –Dr. Wess Stafford
“Credulity (gullibility) is the man’s weakness but the child’s strength” – Lamb
“What you dislike in others, take care to correct in yourself” –Sprat
