“Abdur Rab offers a comprehensive vision of Islam using the Quran as his sole religious textual source. He intentionally avoids the hadith literature, which he believes, and argues, has done much damage to the message of the Quran. His work provides many thought-provoking insights and should be a significant contribution to the 'Quran only' movement in modern Islam.” ShouldBelieveDoneLiteratureReligiousVisionModernMovementSourceOffersMessagesIslamInsightArguingSignificantDamageContributionThought ProvokingSoleProvokingComprehensiveQuranHadith Author:Jeffrey Lang
“As to harmonizing the theory of evolution with the Biblical account of creation, I do not believe it can be done, and I do not see why it should be.

“Music is neither old nor modern: it is either good or bad music, and the date at which it was written has no significance whatever. Dates and periods are of interest only to the student of musical history. . . . All old music was modern once, and much more of the music of yesterday already sounds more old-fashioned than works which were written three centuries ago. All good music, whatever its date, is ageless - as alive and significant today as it was when it was written” TodayThreeSoundInterestAliveWrittenModernCenturyStudentsPeriodsMusic IsMusicalYesterdaySignificantSignificanceOld FashionedAgelessOld MusicBad Music Author:Peter Warlock
