Undated Letter, Received 9-28-06
Finally got another letter from Jared today. His health continues to be a problem. Please pray for health and strength for him. Thank you.
Hey guys,
It's been a while, I know. Sorry. We've been keeping pretty busy at night with different missions (homework stuff like fixing our packs). I'm on firewatch now. Its 12:30 am. I've gotten about 15 min. of sleep and we wake up at 4:30 am tomorrow. I decided I could write you safely during firewatch because there are many people still up writing definitions for homework. I blend right in.
The move up north has been better than I was imagining. It's the same style of barracks and everything so its not too rustic. The only difference is we wash our clothes by hand here. We've done that a couple times with our camies down south, but we have yet to do it up here. Next week we start rifles. I'm a little apprehensive cause I don't have any rifle experience. But the DI says that means we'll probably get the best scores. No bad habits yet.
It's real cold right now. It's pretty cool during the day out of the sun. In the sun, it's extremely hot still. But in case you were wondering, I still prefer being hot to cold.
I haven't gotten any mail for about a week now. Our Sr. DI doesn't really stay here so there's been no one kind enough to hand it out. It was said we'd get it the 1st day we got here, but I guess not. I expect it soon.
Like I think I mentioned on the phone, my health is very off and on. Right now I think my pneumonia is back. Oh well. At this point I just gotta deal with it.
There's been a couple rough times up here of note. About a week ago our foot lockers got dumped. They get dumped a lot, but this time we were all made to get in a line and walk through it all. Then we had to "set up the mini grinder" (used so we can drill inside) where we move all the starboard side beds to port side right over top. Luckily my personal things were found quick and intact. Another thing they do is make us chug both canteens. That'll make you throw up quicker than anything I've ever seen. Luckily, both mine were half full.
I'm so hungry right now. It's very different eating only 3 times a day. I've lost 10 pounds so far. Hopefully, I'm getting more muscle too, so figure that in and I guess I'm losing fat. I still don't think I've changed that much. I think thats coming up. When I get home, I'm gonna eat a ton, mostly junk. I don't think I'll stop.
Love you. It was good to talk to you guys. I think I get one more phonecall during 3rd phase. We'll see. TTYL Jared
BTW, As far as the wrong address and pictures and all that, nothings gotten me in trouble. So far they've been really relaxed about mail.

Islam orders the worship of a man because:
Muslims are also `Muhammadans'
Early non-Muslim quasi-researchers of Islam called it `Muhammadanism', implying in some way that Muslims worshipped the Messenger of Allah (saas). Hence, the (false) basis for this misconception really emanates from non-Muslims. However, as was described above, a "Muslim" is "one who submits to Allah." The essence of Islam is pure, pure, pure monotheism. Allah says in the Qur'an (translated):
[112:1-4] Say: He is Allah, the One and Only; Allah, the One on whom all depend; He begets not, nor is He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.
[3:144] Muhammad is no more than a messenger: many Were the messengers that passed away before him. If he died or were slain, will you then turn back on your heels? If any did turn back on his heels, not the least harm will he do to Allah; but Allah (on the other hand) will swiftly reward those who (serve Him) with gratitude.
From the Sunnah, specifically in the study of the Sunnah called Sahih Bukhari, we find:
[9:93:470] Narrated Mu'adh bin Jabal: The Prophet said, "O Mu'adh! Do you know what Allah's Right upon His slaves is?" I said, "Allah and His Apostle know best." The Prophet said, "To worship Him (Allah) Alone and to join none in worship with Him (Allah). Do you know what their right upon Him is?" I replied, "Allah and His Apostle know best." The Prophet said, "Not to punish them (if they do so)."
[4:55:654] Narrated `Umar: I heard the Prophet saying, "Do not exaggerate in praising me as the Christians praised the son of Mary, for I am only a Slave. So, call me the Slave of Allah and His Apostle."
