Been doing more research and digging, and I've come to some conclusions (although this is Largely unfinished)
Sufism and Quranism are looking pretty nice to me

i’ve been called a “progressive muslim” so many times and i am very much not.
i’m just not a Qur’an literalist and have a deep seated mistrust in religious leaders so i actually study my religion and ask questions.
it takes so much effort to sort through the strange and misguided opinions of the “ulema”.

Divine Will
Today's Conference of the Books wisdom:
Tumblr media
The result of a search is not the point -- the point is the search. A life consumed by the search for Divine Will is the Divine Will and is the ultimate morality.
(The Search for Beauty in Islam: A Conference of the Books, by Khaled Abou El Fadl)

It is a PRIVILEGE to be able to say that the entire population of a country or region are inherently guilty and deserving of death. It is also exactly the same shit the alt right does.
I've seen people do this to both Palestine and Israel. If you honestly celebrate the murder of Palestinians or Israelis and try to justify it, you are no better than an alt right cult member.
Real people are dying and suffering while you pretend this is a video game.

every time i see someone exclude, mock or ignore queer religious people's existence (whether from bigoted religious people or bigoted queer people) i think it should be perfectly acceptable for us to punch them in the face for that

(hope its ok to send this to your sideblog--) for the ask prompt, 7 and 11? :3
Yeah sure it's ok that's what the sideblog is for
So for 7 this is a complicated one and I'm still forming my beliefs on it, but I believe that man and woman are the 2 poles or foundations of gender yes others exist but this are the big ones and while GNC Muslims are cool and extremely based like there still some requirements and expectations like for me I'm Non Binary (Bigender/Genderfluid) but I am living as a woman (or at least planning to) despite the fact I don't actually consider myself to be one so for like prayer I do whatever the women are doing
As for number 11 yes I do feel Allah's presence I've actually been feeling it for a very long time but only recognized it as Allah recently and it happens sort of whenever although it seems to happen a lot either at night or on Buses

Despite claiming to be oh so loving, Christians really are the biggest haters and it just so happens that they often end up hating people who are already oppressed or marginalized in some way.
