Religion Is Here To Unite Us

[SIslamK]

Come, come again," instruct lines of poetry attributed to Rumi, the 13th century Persian poet, "ours is not a caravan of despair." Here, during a special Rihla session recorded recently in Konya, Turkey, Hamza Yusuf emphasizes the expansiveness of the spirit demanded by Rumi. "Religion is here to unite us; it's not here to divide us," says Hamza Yusuf. "And if it's dividing us, it's not God's religion -- it's something else.

Religion can bring the best and worst out of a person depending on how they understand their holy book. I use to enjoy listening to Hamza Yusuf until after 9/11 when he became one of the establishment. Some of his comments have been very insensitive.
