Have you ever been in jail? Or in an underground pit for days? Or in an area of operations that has been closed due to war and you were in the thick of events? If you haven’t been in places like that, I’ll explain in vain. If life pampered you and could go anywhere you wanted, said what your mind dictated and you were not restrained by the boundaries of physical states or expectations, then you don’t understand what I am going to say.
Choose your path based on your soul-conducting practice. If that holds you back from something, don’t do it. This is how you can keep yourself away from sin. That should work at normal case. Since there are only few normal cases today, maybe that is not the path to recommend.
Why are you going to accredit your knowledge with people who are stupider than you? Why are you eager to get academic titles, assignments, while bypassing real knowledge, when these degrees are not the means for improving the world, but serve only for fitting you into a narrow-minded hierarchy that is over-confident, arrogant.

It has been more than 30 years since I was able to register the Hungarian Islamic Community in August 1988, of which I was the founder and first sheikh president. The community works and is still in good hands today.
The knowledge is power. Of course, I am not talking about all kind of knowledge, but about the one that expands the perspective, which opens all the doors in order that various sort of information to flow into a person, through as large cross-section as possible.
Attention! Below I will talk about trends. There are exceptions everywhere, but these exceptions do not affect the prevailing trend. So, please do not mention these exceptions in the comments. On the other hand, my article will be about Europe and not Hungary. In Hungary, Islam is a terrifying word used by politics, but in reality, it is present only scattered and has no social weight. Christianity, on the other hand, is there and is present in a defining way. Therefore, my opinion below cannot be applied to Islam in Hungary, but is applied to Christianity.
Nor take life - which Allah has made sacred - except for just cause. And if anyone is slain wrongfully, we have given his heir authority (to demand qisas or to forgive): but let him nor exceed bounds in the matter of taking life; for he is helped (by the Law). Quran 17:33
