Welcome to Belief: Securing Faith
Whoever believes through mere following
Their faith is not safe from creeping doubts
[Ibrahim al-Laqani, Jawharat al-Tawhid]
Is your faith safe?
Life is full of ideas, events, and people that test your beliefs. Sometimes, even shake them. In our culture of scientism and skepticism, religion is seen as foolish, irrational, and outdated. This leaves Muslims with the responsibility to know and articulate their beliefs - or be outsmarted.
