Four Great Impediments To Self-Development, Glossary

"Therefore, if we who claim to be Muslims will not study the scriptures; will not study the Holy Qur'an; will not study the Bible; and, will not study our Lessons that will give us keys to the past, present and future - then, we will misjudge the transitional stage, and end up wrapped up in our egos; or judgment made by what we perceive of knowledge; what we perceive of reality; what we perceive of morality, based upon our limited knowledge, and our limited life experience. We will then find a parting of the ways with us and Allah (God), and the man that we claim to follow to Allah (God) and His Christ."
