>detests free thinkers. You'll hear loud speakers blaring out when its time to roll out the mat and get on your knees, very metaphorical for the spirit of Islam
You only say this because your exposure and familiarity is limited to the contemporary view of islam which mainly tend to centre around the athari belief which is very shallow from a metaphysical pov and demonizes any form of philosophical endeavour because of their apprehension to Qiyas (rationalisation) in favour of dogmatic adherence to the scripture and hadith. Not to mention that you aren't familiar with events such as the mihna or the philosophers that existed throughout the golden age with the likes of Avicenna, Averroes, ibn Arabi, suhrawardi, mulla sadra and the ikhwan assafa. In all honesty my belief is that the truth is approximated more closely when abiding by the beliefs of the mutazila or at least somewhere between the ash'ari and mutazila. The Islam you see now is purely due to the efforts of the faggot house of Saud who made agreements to spread their bullshit athari/salafi beliefs that stunted a substantial portion of the islamic world and their development with the Americans in exchange for oil.
>The best islamic works were written by men who got exiled or killed for Heresy, like Conference of Birds
Farid Attar was killed during mongol invasions you fat retard.

Is it actually a good book or is it just a pale imitation of the bible?
