assalamu alaikum wr wb,

It's been awhile since I've posted a muslim related thread. I've mainly been listening to Hamza Yusuf lectures on CD, and as such, don't have any interesting articles to post.

Howeva, I always have islamic art websites handy. God is beautiful and loves beauty...

Kelly Izdihar - she'll be at ISNA this year. I still haven't gone yet *pouts* Oh well, there's always next year

I want one of her boxes

Not "art" in the normal sense of the world, but definately beautiful - Athan and Sufi Dhikr

Just as a disclaimer - the Adhan is 5 minutes long, and there is a small hum of music below it, from an orchestra. After that, it's a brief musical interlude, and then the dhikr. If you find any of that objectionable, then don't listen (F)
