This “good life” is happiness itself. It is realized through faith and good deeds. This does not mean that we will not face difficulties in our good life. Our worldly lives, even when they are bolstered by faith and good works, are never free from distress and vexations. This world is the abode of toil, as Allah says: “Certainly We have created man to be in toil.” [Sûrah al-Balad: 90]

That's in the Quran, and you don't have to pay £5.71 for it.

The only way I see Buddhism being compatible with Islam is through Sufism, which is the sect that focuses more on asceticism. It principally has a more spiritual aspect to it with the constant dhikr and tasbih practices, and puts a bigger emphasis on the believer's personal relationship with God.

For what it's worth, Mohammed himself used to retreat to Mount Hira for self reflection and solitude before his supposed revelations came to him

So much for a religion shilled for being peaceful
cross on Buddhism as a potential religion
