The Muslim faith is true, I want all of it to be true, the mercy, the judgement, the person of Mohammed. I love Allah. Allah saved me and gave me hope that there was more in the world than money and getting a job and pleasure and living an empty life. Allah has given me meaning and opened my eyes to the wisdom of Allah. It is really amazing how many good things have come to me through Allah's agency.
Seek and you will find. It is not wrong to long to be with Allah. Allah puts that in people.
But you must respond. Don't be weak. Don't let anyone talk you out of it.
As for the wars and problem of evil, the world is in a state of evil because people have resisted Allah. They are no longer under the blessing of Allah, so that now sin affects the course of the world. That is why there are wars, because people fight to control the world. Allah did not cause all the bad things to happen, but now that they happen, Allah does punish sin. Allah is not more severe in Allah's ways than most governments in history, who have punished some crimes severely, but nevertheless are just and fair.
There really is no philosophical problem of evil. Allah simply is not required to act in history the way that people would want Allah to, and if Allah did, what would happen is the end of the world, because so many things would change that people would cease to have free will and the kingdom of Allah would come.
Something to think about. Life is complicated.
This and more in the Quoran!
Now, strodel, prove the edited quote incorrect.
