Why Not?


Is it alright if I take pride in my creative thought? My existence? My superiority over other species?
Is it okay to stand up tall, with one’s head high and a stiff collar? Is it okay to step into the mosque in such a posture?

Why not?
Am I not proud of my faith? Can I not stand tall in front of Allah and claim in praise that: “Look God. You made me and here I am, in gratitude.”
I don’t yet know what exactly the term used to representing such a statement is, but I’m sure someone from among you will.

And I’m sure that there is such a state, a state that is the result of pride and gratitude experienced at the same time.

If not however, then I have severely wronged myself.
