GeoIslam Community is struggle to awakening positive thinking among largest Muslim community in Islamic traditional and theological perspective. We as Muslims, need to avoid reactive behaviour and negative energies. GeoIslam Community is providing intellectual space to minimize or avoid social mirrors and based on personal development everyone, generally and Muslim in specific can achieve anything. No doubt Allah is best planner; however, HE has given human or groups to dignify themselves through self-awareness, proactive approach, believe on dignity, sincerity, hard work, personal and relationship management, personal purification and clear thoughts. GeoIslam is inviting all Muslims to come and promote positive thoughts in Islamic paradigms. Let achieve spiritual goals by living positive life.
