The doubt essential to faith
When Lesley Hazleton was writing a biography of Muhammad, she was struck by something: The night he received the revelation of the Koran, according to early accounts, his first reaction was doubt, awe, even fear. And yet this experience became the bedrock of his belief. Hazleton calls for a new appreciation of doubt and questioning as the foundation of faith -- and an end to fundamentalism of all kinds.

Out dated chocolates
There are some chocolates in my room. They have been there for 2 years.
I was hungry. Ate one now.
Am I gonna die from outdated chocolate related disease?
Or does chocolate not get outdated?
'of whom He (swt) wills'
I am confused by the phrase: 'of whom He (swt) wills'
Does that assume that we do not have free will?
Does that assume that Allah (swt) picks and chooses? (Sorry that way of asking this question doesn't sound polite, but please see through that).
Help!
