What kind of Muslim are you?

[Henia 11]

Very interesting little quiz. I particularly enjoyed the question about Salman Rushdie. The quiz says I am a Spirtual Seeker. I think it about right, but was very hard to asnwer the questions since I sided with many progessive ideas too. I truly identify with this quote from the progessive muslim description.

interpret Islam historically and might believe that ijtihad should be reopened.

You are a spiritual seeker.

Ibn Battuta traveled the Muslim world looking for answers. Like this famous traveler, you are also looking for answers and have also found yourself wandering through the world of Islam. The spiritual realm of Islam particularly appeals to you. You probably toy with the idea of Sufism and may enjoy reading mystic poets such as Rumi or Hafez. For you, Islam is a state of being that leads to your ultimate connection to God through your submission to Him. Although Islam often guides you on many practical questions, you are more likely than not looking to connect to God and others on a more spiritual level. Many of the social regulations or rules of Islam may seem daunting and unnecessary. You continue to have questions, as well as faith.

What's the deal with clapping? I have never heard it was haram to clap.

from what i gathered about the test, it's haram in the eyes of the traditional muslim in that praise is only to be given to god, not to people.

did i get that right?

That is correct.

I took that test years ago. Can't remember how I came out, tho, not that it matters to me now.

Well, I scored a 41. Not sure if it matters or what I think about it.

That was interesting, not too sure on the accuracy.

You scored 39, on a scale of 0 to 60. Here's how to interpret your score:

31 - 45 Progressive Muslim.
