Khaled Hosseini's and reasons.

This time around, my post relates to the title. (It normally is, but you have to think why it the title and the post doesnt seem to connect directly).

I am not much a reader. Not a bookworm. But this one: my all time fav, everygreen tau. I really like this part:

Mullah Faizullah admitted to Mariam that, at times, he did not understand the meaning of the Koran's words. But he said he liked the enchating sounds the arabic words made as they rolled off his tongue. He said that they comforted him, eased his heart. "They'll comfort you too, Mariam jo" he said. "You can summon them in your time of need, and they wont fail you. Gods's words will never betray you, my girl."

Khaled Hosseini

that was months ago. And dont believe it is true. However i cant tell much about it until recently...

The actual sounds of the language of the Quran - the breathtaking rhythms and words - are like medicine. From the perspective of energy dynamics, every substance has a resonance at a specific wavelength. A medicine resonates in order to cure the disease. So too the sounds of Quran.

Hamza Yusuf

psst: indah, bukan? mari kita coba.

selalunya Muslim don't realize that sebab kita dh terbiasa dgn ayat quran sejak lahir..tp bg org mcm hamza yusuf dia rsa ayat quran tu unique sebab dia mualaf.
