Additional quotes by Sa'diyya Shaikh
I grew up in a Muslim community, particularly with parents and a father that used to tell me the most extraordinary stories and which inspired me. So, I grew up on stories of Shaykh Abdulkad Jaylani Sheikh Rabia, and those were not stories that was told to me as if they were Sufi stories; they were told to me as stories of what good Muslims were, and so my imagination and my heart was fired up.
A lot of my engagements with religion emerged out of those kinds of formative experiences: a deep kind of immersion and a desire and a yearning for the kinds of spiritual treasures that were part of the stories of my childhood, and then wrestling with injustice and thinking about human dignity, human equality, and justice as being central to thinking about a relationship with God.
