Last night we were gossiping with some friends after dinner. In course of our conversation, one friend told us a story. It was like this:
Two people were arguing about the direction in which the Sun rises. The first guy said – there is no controversy on this issue. The Sun always rises from the east. The second guy said, no, you are so wrong; it always rises from the West.
They argued for a while but no one is ready to move away from their respective positions.
The first guy said, "Let's stop arguing about it now, and meet again tomorrow at dawn. I will convince you that Sun rises from the east."
The second guy said, "OK, if you can convince me by tomorrow morning that - Sun rises in the east, I will give you my wife, but, if you can't, I will get your wife."
The first guy thought that the other guy is out of his mind, so he immediately agreed to the bet. They went home that night.
The second guy told his wife about the bet. His wife said, " Are you stupid, evrybody sees in the morning that - Sun rises in the east." He said, "Don't you worry, my dear; let him convince me about that."

If one gets pleasure and satisfaction by reading cocktails of truth and lies by Philip K. Hitty or Karen Armstrong, or any one else he is free to do so. Islam or its believers will not be affected.

Abu Talib always protected his nephew, whose uncle cum brother in law
was less sympathetic to the 'insan-i-kamil'. Talib's final answer to
Islam was that he could not trust in a religion whose follower prayed
with his posterior raised above his head. Moreover, when monotheism
was dominant in the nearby lands of Abyssinia and Damascus, the
prophet gained about seventy followers in about twelve years. The
'faith' became strong when brigandage committed by him from Yatrib
became successful. The poets believed in revelations always. Each
Arabian poet had their personal 'Kahin' from whom (s)he got her/his
verses. Poetry competition was a part of their national fesival. Abu
Lahab and his wife were superior poets than the prophet. Their sons
were married to the prophet's daughters. But soon the poetry
competition and ensuing enmity soured their relationship. The
marriages split up and the rest is history. Anyone interested may
read Philip K. Hitty or Karen Armstrong.
