It's title is "Reliance of the Traveller" it is the classic manual of Islamic Sacred Law. The book I have has both English and Arabic side by side much like an interlinear Bible. It has documents from Islamic Scholars from Egypt, Jordan Saudi Arabia and a couple of others attesting to the English translation being valid. It's about 1200 pages long and covers all of the Sharia law. one should understand what one is getting into before one jumps into the deep end of the pool. You can download this from the web and read it yourself, but make sure you get the full 1200 page edition and not the watered down 350 page edition. It will set you see both the pretty and the ugly side of Islam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember him most of all as Oskar Schindler in "Schindler's List". Seems so incongruous to me. Anyway, I am not sure if he really is that dedicated to convert to Islam. I do have to admit some of the Islamic archtectiture can be very nice to look at from an artistic perspective. I get the sense that he is in another country where it is almost exotic to be in an Islamic area with that forced emphasis of the bells and the prayers daily. He has to realize they do not have the option NOT to participate. It is part of their culture and tradition in a religious sense. He has to realize those things should not be confused with the actual teachings and tenets of the Qu'ran. I do not see any real commitment driving him to convert to Islam. I remember when Natasha Richardson died. He did seem to be very affected by her death and I think that may be a factor in why he seems to be a seeker. He mentions reading books on God and atheism. He is looking. I pray he looks in the right direction and finds the truth. Islam is not it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always really liked Liam Neesen. Especially after he did Star Wars episode 1 and was the voice of Aslan on Chronicles of Narnia. It is not really surprising though. It seems like every belief system EXCEPT for Christianity is the voice"IN" thing in Hollywood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is NO ONE like JESUS, sadly the other will leave him totally empty and burning hot at his mistake in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
