I recommend two works:

Blessings.

‘Say, ‘Should I seek a Lord other than God, when He is the Lord of all things?’ Each soul is responsible for its own actions; no soul will bear the burden of another. You will all return to your Lord in the end, and He will tell you the truth about your differences.’ (Qur’an 6:164; my emphasis).
Sorry, my bad.
When I said ‘peaceful’ I was not referring to the absence of war, but rather to the general atmosphere of the area in which I was raised (Treherbert; Rhondda Valley; South Wales).
As a child, my world was very small. Next to no cars; no home telephones; no TVs; no muzak in...
Yes. In those days a good neighbour was a trusted friend, someone you could share joys and troubles with. In many ways, part of the family. Today, a 'good' neighbour is one who doesn't give you grief!
