Link to Islam

My initial motivation to start this blog is to practise the teachings of my religion, i.e. Islam. I hope to make this blog a means of doing so, as reflecting on ourselves and the world we see around us is encouraged. As for ourselves, God says: 

"And in the earth are portents for those whose faith is sure, And (also) in yourselves. Can ye then not see?"

Al-Zhariyat, verse 20-1 (Note: Pickthall translation)

Regarding the heavens and the earth (of which we are inhabitants):

"Lo! In the creation of the heavens and the earth and (in) the difference of night and day are tokens (of His sovereignty) for men of understanding."

Al-Imran, verse 190 (translation as above)
