RE: Steemit Social Experiment: 50SBD and 50 Steem Power give Away

This song is very monotonous and made me sleepy. The arabic accent is very interesting. There is an interesting "i" in the "aiiin" in there and the kh is also intriguing (reminds me of the Arabic pronunciation of Ahmed).

I'm an atheist and I have a big thing against religions, so the religious part missed me completely. It's a nice story, though. It's very inspiring to use this to write.

It reminded me of this.

I had a Christian education and noticed that this is very similar to the biblic passages. The creation of the world in parts, the creation of man from clay, the description of the to-do's and the punishments. However, on the bible there is only one garden (the Garden of Eden) while here there seem to be two gardens. There also seems to be the promise of great things of obedience. "Reclining upon couches lined with silk brocade and fruit of both gardens within reach".

The music is very good for sleeping, though. It's a pretty lullaby. I particularly like to listen to arabic music, lol, I don't know why. I have a lot of albums by Elissa (Here's one) and I used to have them on repeat. Arabic is just something very pleasing to my ear.

I think that one of my favorite things is how on point 71, at minute 11:16, the dude starts crying and the dogs can be heard in the back. THE PASSION! It's amazing.

edit: Oh, I also met a Muslim girl here where I live and the way she told me about her family was very oppresive. It's a religion that looks very pretty outside but once you get into it, it's full of an anxiety to obey the rules. It's very stressful and limiting. In the end we split apart because of this, since she felt like she was committing a sin for being with me.

Thank you for this wonderful and details comment, I often hear that the Bible, Torah, and Quran have very similar stories. However, the Quraan is probably the only book that has been preserved in its original language and this is important for the preservation of the true meanings.
As per my knowledge, the Bible was written first in the Aramaic language, and then translated to Hebrew and then greek and finally to English, I will have to double check on this information, However, this made the book lose many of its original meanings, and I also see many Christians confused between different versions, while there is only One Quraan out there.

there is no music at all in what you just heard. The guy was not singing but reciting deeply with emotions that made it almost sounds like music to the ears, yes that part where he starts crying is just so emotional for me as well.

As for the Muslim girl that you have met, this is probably more to do with the traditions and her family than Islam itself, Islam for me is like a big cake and if you try to eat it all as some try to do and apply it to their children then you will probably end up sick of it, but its more like eating a little of it every day and the basis of the message is to believe that there One creator of this Universe, as hard it may sound I do believe the universe is a very complex creation and it could not have been createad by itself.
Any complex device that you use today, like mobile, Tv, Computer, and even Blockchain and Steemit has a Creator and the first thing the creator of any device do is make a booklet of things to do and not to do with this device, otherwise your warranty is not valid anymore or you will end it destroying it. Hence my logic tells me there should be a creator of this complex universe and there is should be a book of rules or guidance for us humans to use.

You are the 12th winner of this contest and your coins will be on the way now, thank you again for this details comment.
