The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

In the East, religion is sown in the heart of the child from birth, no matter to what religion he may belong. The invocation of the name of God becomes a daily custom, which he consciously or unconsciously repeats in sorrow as well as in joy. Bismillah -- In the name of Allah, or Alhamdulillah -- Praise be to Allah, or Allahu Akbar -- God is great, and Ya Allah -- O God; such expressions as these are used at the beginning and the end, as well as in the midst of every ordinary conversation. This attunes the believer and even attracts the unbeliever to the thought of God, which in the end leads the seeker to self-realization and the Peace of God.
