Comment:-
If you are using the word "angle" in the way you describe, then there isn't
any problem between us. Too many posts in SRI end up being protracted
'verbal disputes' over the use of words between Muslims. Unfortunately, many
subscribers wouldn't have given the same 'use' as yourself. I glad this has
been clarified.

To 'understand as well as being understood' isn't an Islamic innovation as
some Muslim 'pundits' would have us believe.

For a large class of cases -though not for all - in which we employ the word
meaning it can be defined thus: the meaning of a word is its use in the
language. [Ludwig Wittgenstein]
