I am grateful to all for taking time to visit my blog. I started in December, 2017. My goal is to post things that have an educational value and assist readers in understanding the basics of Islam and Sufism. The  posts may include material such as Islamic art , architecture, cultural and physical landscape etc. I have included photographs of the Silk Road region of Pakistan that I took decades ago during our travels of  the most beautiful part of Pakistan. (I try to post material at least 4 days a week and so far there are 150 posts).
