1. All of the major religions are talked about, excerpted, explained by the instructors and thank you so much for that. But I feel sad that Quran or Islamic scriptures or Mohammed are very rarely quoted. I have no bias for islam although being from such family, but I would like to understand Quran/Teacher Mohammed from the perspective of Gnosis.
There are so many pseudo teachers of hadiths and islam out there, a genuine true explanation is missing in the world.
Request the instructors to please give some audio lectures on Quran.
Thank you so much for what you all are doing.
2. Why do muslims say peace be upon him after Allah or Mohammed's name? I noticed that instructor Almustafa also does this although s/he most of the times does not use such suffix for other teachers' names like SAW, Jesus, Moses etc etc.
Although being part of muslim family, I never understood why we use that phrase after the name of the Supreme God or Supreme Teacher Mohammed and I never adhered to that dogma.
They have already attained peace or in perpetual peace! I have asked around and have either gotten dogmatic answers or scolding or slaps :-) PBUH should be used for ignorants like us, is it not?
The same question I have for "Hallowed be thy name" in Lord's prayer. This is my favorite prayer and it unfolds deeper meanings whenever I use it. It has been the most helpful tool for me when I am bickering in my head due to some egos. But I never understood why do we say "Hallowed be thy name" for Father whose name is already hallowed.
