So you don't suffer from inner conflicts? I would love to hear about that, giving that we are from similar cultures and have some what similar ideas , the difference is that I identify as a satanist, still, I am not fully separated from my muslim background, it would be interesting to hear the experiences of the likes of you, if you like to shareNo I do not suffer from inner conflicts, I used to though. I don't pay much attention to whether an idea is true or not. As long as I can use that idea for self growth and if that idea helps me to become the best version of myself according to myself and helps me to sustain healthy relationships with others then I'm content. It's a self journey
So let me understand thus clearly, you still believe in Allah, and follow so Islamic teachings, but you also like what satanism offers to you, am I correct?So you don't suffer from inner conflicts?

This is not so strange. One can be a theist and still find certain aspects of Satanism useful. This doesn't have to lead to inner conflicts if one isn't too devout or radical in one's beliefs.
I totally agree, I call it the duality, some might mix it with hypocrisy, but it is not, as you can have both beliefs in a separate way, and benefit from both

Maybe because things tend to fall apart when you dive into the details. And I dont really "follow" Islamic teachings, I just like to participate in the festive occasions like Ramadan eid etc and believe in the unseen description of the world like jinn because I've personally experienced them. But honestly last Ramadan I just fasted only once and last time I prayed was probably like 7 years ago so no I don't think I follow Islamic teachings. And i don't know how I really feel about Satanism, I only like the self aspect of Satanism, I don't like how they so passionately romanticize the dark nature of humans, I understand that but you can clearly sense it is coming from a really unbalanced perspective or coming from a lack of something (sorry but im not good at putting my thoughts into words), I think the dark nature perspective sounds better when it is coming from Carl jung's mouth, or at least for me. It's all personal choices
Years ago I did become familiar with this not only as the speed of light but also as part of Einsteins' famous equation, but it did go unreferenced for so long, and then when I was reading about one of Einsteins' biggest blunders that had to do with the expansion of spacetime, I assumed the blunder was in reference to believing that spacetime itself was a constant, in which it could be in some models, such as a 'bulk of the multiverse' theory(M-theory), but as it turns out the cosmological constant is most renown(or should be) for the constant rate at which the universe was thought to be expanding - the speed of light(c).
So apparently the "blunder" was in applying this constant to the rate of expansion. This is where one on those old 'find and replace' Wordpad tools would come in handy : find : a/the cosmological constant; replace with : a/the static spacetime medium, but seriously, who cares. Maybe I fix it eventually, here and there.
Cosmological Constant : the speed of light : c(subscript 1)
Cosmological Constant : static spacetime : c(subscript 2)
Or something like that. I don't believe in a static spacetime, or a bulk of a multiverse theory, but for the sake of academia I suppose.
So for me it was cosmology first and all this crazy talk about a singularity and the emergence of spacetime from nothing, and that went on for a while. Then later on I stumbled upon Kabbalah and the tree of life.
The primary correlation with the above two would of course be emergence from nothing, or, negative existence, and the latter would then go on to elaborate the following evolutionary layers of spacetime as concentric spheres, emanations, or, sephiroth.
In contemporary cosmology the first emergence would be referred a singularity which would be synonymous the first sphere of the tree of life. Singularity meaning one; Kether, or the primordial point, also one, and I presume 'The All' of Hermetics or any model or philosophy/religion that makes reference to 'the first', or, 'the one'. Yes, the Quran even refers to God as "The One".
So there appears to be a perennial root here. Just different ways of referring the same thing, hence this "duality of belief".
Edit : sephiroth is plural for sephirah
