Buddhist Life

Most Malaysian Muslims of Chinese descent today are converts to Islam. They are a legacy of their own, having no ancestral links to any Islamic roots in China. Malaysian Chinese who come to Islam are from all kinds of backgrounds. Some received their education in Chinese, some in Malay, and some in English. Some have lifestyles influenced by their Chinese heritage, while some lean more towards the Malay culture, and some towards the Western way of life. This small work tries to address questions of identity faced by Malaysia's Chinese Muslim community.

Jesus did not forget he was god immediately after performing a miracle when he was a 3 month old fetus. He also did not forget he was God immediately following the 4 day miracle at the Temple when he was 12 years old. Don't let anyone tell you this as it is not Biblical.

We will cross-compare details for accuracy, and not make up things we can find out. You will see how Joseph and Mary both came from well-off parents, how he ...

Over the course of twenty-five centuries, Buddhism spread from its place of origin in northern India to become a global tradition of remarkable breadth, depth, and richness. Donald S.
