    Why I prefer Islam.

    I find the Koran much more engaging than the Bible. The Bible is more story-based in its approach, the Koran is largely addressed to the reader so it comes across much more one-on-one.

    Do you believe in reincarnation or rebirth?

    I was raised with belief in reincarnation and believed until about four years ago. Sikhism taught me otherwise, and a huge lightbulb of simplicity lit up in my mind.

    What do happy people do differently?

    I think acceptance and support of one's self is integral to happiness. Self-motivating, self-appreciating, self-valuing, self-confident, self-assured. The seat of happiness and peace is squarely inside oneself. Happiness is not found externally, but internally.

    Why be muslim?

    Really? This is a gap in my knowledge then, or perhaps incorrect terminology. What I meant by saying 'Muslim country' is a country with a Muslim majority and Sharia-dominant or Sharia-heavy legal system, like Iran or Afghanistan.

    Why be muslim?

    Islam is a complete way of life due to it's religious and thorough legal system which is still adhered to. Do Jewish communities live by and enforce the laws of the Torah? Do Christian communities live by and enforce the laws of the Bible? I don't think dharmic religions provide...

    Why be muslim?

    Sadly, it seems that "certain people" includes people who choose to live in a way that is different to Islam's complete way of life.
