Bureau of Continuing Education II: shades of Pentecost
[ by Charles Cameron — flabberghasted by what new things he learns daily — comparative religion ]
.
From the al-Qiyamah site:
Prophesied Sure Signs of Allah (SWT) will confirm Al-Qiyamah
Nafas al Rachman, breath of the Merciful, experienced daily by those taking part in Al-Qiyamah (The Resurrection) (Photo taken 1st August 2008 in Russia of the Nafas al Rachman which, though invisible to the naked eye, can be felt as Cool Breeze or Wind of the Resurrection flowing from hands, head and other parts of the body.)Compare Acts 2. 1-4:
And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

If you follow Twitter, you’re familiar with the phrase “retweeting does not imply endorsement” — my equivalent here would be “juxtaposition does not imply eqivalence.”
