This time is the time of computer and internet, and it’s impossible to present Islam through very old books written long time ago. S How nicely you speak, Dad! I feel I love you more than ever and love God and thank Him for giving me such a wonderful father. F And I love God more for giving me such a son. S Praise be to God! F Praise be to God! S We wandered away from the subject, Dad. F On the contrary, we have reached the core of the subject... we reached the subject of love.
My love for you and my love for God lead me to talk to you about religion, life, God, human beings, the world and the hereafter... I want you to have a comprehensive review of all thoughts related to religion after you have reached your maturity. S But Dad, you have discussed with us almost all of our religious issues, explained many ideological problems, clarified the principles and the components of the religion and showed us the path of guidance.
Do you see a shortcoming in my faith, or defect in my behavior? F It’s not about a shortcoming in faith or misbehaviors, son. It is something else, completely different and extremely dangerous. That’s why I want you to be prepared and informed about some issues without being shocked. S OK, Dad! What’s that important and dangerous matter which I should know after my puberty? F I wanted to tell you that what you have learnt from me about religion was incorrect. S What?! Dad! What are you saying?!
F As I said, all that you have heard from me about religion was completely wrong. S Dad! What are you saying?! What do you mean? Which aspect of religion was wrong? The ideology? The manners? Please Dad, be frank with me. F I mean the basics of religion, the ideology: the faith in God, the hereafter, the Prophet and the Messengers and all what you have learnt about is incorrect. S Seek God's forgiveness. Dad, what happened to you? Sorry Dad for being impolite.
How can believing in God, the hereafter and the Messengers be wrong? I cannot believe what I’m hearing. F I will answer this question tomorrow. S Dad! Please be frank about your intentions, for you made me feel uncertain. How can you leave me in this state? And how can I pray then, while I’m in a state of uncertainty. F Who asked you to pray? S Didn’t you ask me to pray and to perform it patiently? F Then your prayer is not accepted at all. S Not accepted? What does that mean?
Shall I abandon praying then? F It is up to you whether you want to pray or not. S That’s strange. I’m going crazy.
