“With his iman, he will split open and sift everything he sees. He will pierce through it with his wisdom and his firm certitude and determination, without allowing his mind to become fatigued, without allowing his heart to give up. If he can continue to pierce and cut through what is within everything, he will see only Allah. He will see Allah‘s wealth, Allah‘s powers, Allah‘s qualities, and nothing else. In every moment, in every tree, in every flower, and in every blade of grass, he will see only God. In every tree, every fruit, every fragrance, every flower, every bird, every cow, every goat, in whatever he beholds he will see only the secret of Allah, the powers or wilayats of Allah, and the qualities of Allah. When he looks at an ant he will discover Allah‘s secrets. When he looks at a fruit he will be amazed and say, „What a wonder! How praiseworthy You are. How subtly You have created the fruit. What flavors it contains!“ If he looks at a honeybee he will see how much wisdom it has, how it builds its house, what qualities it has, and how it tastes the honey and shares it with everyone. (p. 4)”

“Saya sendiri orang agamawan, tapi yang terpenting sebenarnya adalah iman. Iman itu inklusif, sedang agama harus dan selayaknya ekslusif.... Betul, banyak sekali manusia beragama, tapi tidak beriman. Sedangkan tidak sedikit yang tidak beragama, "atheis dalam praksisnya", tetapi beriman: bersikap baik pada sesama, suka menolong yang lemah dlsb. Memang, idealnya, dua-duanya, beragama sekaligus beriman. Tapi hal ini membutuhkan pergulatan terus-menerus seumur hidup. Hal ini perlu sekali disadari karena menyangkut pandangan kita terhadap sesama manusia dan alam, ilmu pengetahuan dan yang lebih sempit lagi, sains, dan teknologi itu sendiri”
