Yes, you do respond to posts on this list. What I meant to write was that you
haven’t read my blogposts, since I do refer to The Bible in a number of my
blogposts. It is an article of faith to believe that just like The Quran, prior
scriptures have also been revealed by Allah for guidance.

I believe that the God who created me and granted me the ability to speak and
express my self is capable of expressing and communicating perfectly, and thus
the scriptures must be taken literally.
I’m delightfully pleased with the factual accuracy of The Quran and share my
learnings in over a hundred blogposts.
I have neither read Avrroes nor Al Ghazali. You can draw parallels if you wish.
