I have been reading this 6 weird meme all over the place, & I gotta say, this one takes the cake, as they say….it is by far the weirdest and the bestest.

Just so you don’t feel so alone, I am have one child, named Kadria (from the qadr) *was* a convert to Islam…strayed through my studies of sufism (& the universalism I found) and my inability to stomach the anti-semitism I kept tripping over in the traditionalist umah (ironically enough!) and am now married to the son of holocaust survivors, which makes for interesting seders when my Arabic daughter and me and my shicksa self attend!

At any rate, I am very much looking forward to reading your book.

At any rate, Yuletide Greetings, Happy (belated) Chanukah, Eid Mubarak and a wholly holy New Year to you and all of yours, from a Socialist People’s Republic of Vermonter now in Ft Greene Brooklyn. LOL

Wow! didn’t read it before.

very very interesting. i loved reading the whole of it. specially it was great to discover the story of Master of Jinn and your own life. The out of the body experience was truly remarkable. will you bless us someday about this incident?

Blessings be with you.

Salaam,

Wow!!! That is very interesting brother Irving and thanks for sharing it with us. Number 6 is the most meaningful and most special part that you shared about yourself. I can’t believe you worked for Hustler magazine – but each life experience helps us in our journey to Allah. I could relate to you on the shyness aspect; I haven’t gotten over my shyness yet. The strange thing is I’m not shy on the Internet, and from my comments you would guess I’m a great talker but if you meet me in person, I’m very quiet.

The Internet is actually an outlet for me where I’m too shy to participate in real life settings. This was actually a very interesting tag post, and I feel I know you a little bit better. Thanks for sharing :-)

Salaams, one and all…

Ma sha Allah, an interesting post. Hustler eh? As with the others, can’t quite see it! But, then, I know I’ve got more than a few skeletons in my closet. :)

Who’s turn to be tagged next?

That’s all pretty amazing, I must say. Unlike the others, I dont know where to start.
More about the near death experience, perhaps?

I was waiting for you to mention ‘Hustler.’ Still curious …

Yeah, I don’t see a whole lot of shyness currently :)

Well not weird, but it made me go “awwwwww.” Sweet. And now, I have my yearly dose of Muslim guilt as a result (I never get that… why? sociopath tendencies, or so I’ve been told).

Hugs (web hugs aren’t haram) for Irving!
