Dualities-Lessons from the Life of Bilal (RAW) [Due on November 16, 2008]

Remember to make connections with our class discussions:
1. What does being a slave to Allah mean to you and what does freedom from Allah mean to you?
2. Analyze the life of Bilal (RA) and list the reasons why Mohammed (SAW) did not follow the suggestions of ringing the bell or other suggestions and instead followed what Abdullah ibn Zayd and Umar dreamed of. How does this event relate to fit-in and not fitting in?
3.How do you explain freedom in the light of Tawheed?
