The Importance Of Ibn Khaldun In Islam
1,766 wordsIn the modern world Islam is seen as many things, but rarely is it viewed as a source of inspiration and enlightenment.

Time And Space One God
1,615 words... can make God plural, in Judaism God is considered to be absolutely simple. He is omnipotent and doesn't consist of any matter. As far as he is not material, he is called Holy and Pure.
