Father’s Day, Sunday, September 4, 2016.
“I DARED TO CALL HIM FATHER,” by Bilquis Sheikh is the book I am currently reading.
The author writes that she felt sure, that no Muslim thought of Allah as his father. From a very early age she had been taught how to know about Allah. Three things:
- To think on the Quran.
- To study the Quran.
- To pray five times a day.
We Christians talk to God as if he were our father. In Matthew 6:9-15 the Lord Jesus Christ tells us how to pray:
“Our Father Who is in heaven, hallowed (kept holy) be your name.”
