"A traveler on the mystic path
is content with a loaf of bread;
By its light he may be turned
towards the Light of God."

Rumi
Aish, "life," is an ancient Arabic term for bread;
Accordingly, it is treated with reverence throughout the Muslim world.
Before kneading dough, the baker blesses it with "Bismillah," and again before putting it in the oven. Mistreatment of bread is a sign of disrespect toward the Source of all sustenance.
If a piece of bread is found on the ground, little time will pass before someone picks it up, kisses it, says "Bismillah," and sets it in a safe, clean place.
In most homes bread is served at every meal, and is used to scoop up food; dunk into soup, stew or tea; or roll up with cheese, olives or herbs...
Theres a few reasons I make my own bread.....
