🏵️🏵️ Conversations about spirituality, like the one with Phra Olarn, help us reflect on our beliefs and practices. As Muslims, we recognize the significance of seeking knowledge and understanding, as emphasized in the Qur'an: "And say, My Lord, increase me in knowledge" (Surah Ta-Ha, 20:114). The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) stated, "Seeking knowledge is an obligation upon every Muslim."

Brian, your piece prompts us to consider how interfaith dialogue can enrich our understanding and foster mutual respect. Thank you, Brian, for sharing this insightful perspective.

In what ways can we cultivate compassion and understanding across different faiths while remaining true to our own beliefs?
