Adey & eagelmanuel..

It's the first time that I hear the term 'pantheism'. No offense meant but as a believer I think Satan is getting very creative :D

Raison: "I sometimes dally with the hope that my ajer (good deeds) for the profound privaledge of being Muslim is similar to that of the fortunate ones who have embraced Islam of their free will."

I agree with you on this. Even those born into Islam do choose it at some point and feel thankful for it, whereas others will just carry it as a mere identity.
