Salvation of the True Rock: I Am Not a Believer
http://najatozkaya.blogspot.com/2010/10/i-am-not-believer.html
Salvation of the True Rock. The Poems of Najat Ozkaya. Sunday, October 24, 2010. I Am Not a Believer. Stop with your accusations! I am not a religious man, and never have been. I am not attached to anyone’s sacred writings, or teachers, or mosques. They are like candied dates:. Pleasurable, but not enough to sustain one’s life. They are like the shimmering silks worn by a beautiful and seductive woman:. Nice, but the real pleasure comes when she takes them off. Just “kiss me”. I am not religious. Subscri...

Salvation of the True Rock: Submitting All Things
http://najatozkaya.blogspot.com/2011/02/submitting-all-things.html
Salvation of the True Rock. The Poems of Najat Ozkaya. Tuesday, February 8, 2011. Last night I asked my wife. If she had submitted in all things. To the will of Allah. Whereupon she loudly announced. That submission to me was quite arduous enough. And that no reasonable deity could possibly require more. I was shaken by this pronouncement. And it caused me to reflect upon. How much wiser than myself my wife often is. Starting tomorrow I shall begin a new spiritual discipline:. And I trust that Allah.

Salvation of the True Rock. The Poems of Najat Ozkaya. Friday, December 31, 2010. This family is who I am. It’s not the only family to be a part of, certainly. It is not better than any other family. Family, and I love them. This path is who I am. It’s not the only path. It is not better than any other path. Path, and so I walk it with joy. This religion is who I am. It’s not the only religion. It is not better than any other religion. Religion, and so I practice it with reverence. Najat knows who he is.

Salvation of the True Rock: The Perfection of Allah
http://najatozkaya.blogspot.com/2010/10/perfection-of-allah.html
Salvation of the True Rock. The Poems of Najat Ozkaya. Thursday, October 21, 2010. The Perfection of Allah. Today I met a man who went on and on about the perfection of Allah. How he is the Highest, the Immutable, the Unattainable. He waxed poetic in his descriptions,. Rapturously describing something beyond conception, something untouchable. I don’t know who this man is in love with,. But it certainly doesn’t sound like Allah to me. The Allah I know is not elevated beyond this earth,. You do not say, &#...

Dangerous thoughts about god and faith. I attended California Baptist College and completed a Bachelor’s degree in English Literature.

Salvation of the True Rock. The Poems of Najat Ozkaya. Monday, December 20, 2010. Jesus and the Dog. Once when the prophet Jesus—peace be upon him—. Was walking on a dusty and deserted road. On his way to an urgent engagement. He came upon a dog, who was sick and nearly lifeless. Moved with compassion, he touched the animal’s matted fur. The dog opened one eye and whined weakly,. Then opened its mouth and gave his hand one affectionate lick. The prophet then cradled the animal in his arms,. When you fina...

Salvation of the True Rock: February 2011
http://najatozkaya.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Salvation of the True Rock. The Poems of Najat Ozkaya. Wednesday, February 23, 2011. No Help at All. My Beloved is no help at all. I ask for a needle, He hands me a chicken. I ask for a hammer, He gives me a bucket. I ask him for cloth, He gives me grapes. This is no way. To run a partnership! I ask Him for answers, and he gives me a handful of date pits. I ask Him for comfort, and He shows me a bruise on His elbow. I ask Him for a display of righteous wrath, and what does He do? I would talk to Him.
