I was born into Islam(my dad is a Muslim.) I got interested in this 'occultist' stuff when i was 13 or 14. I later rejected its authenticity.
I dont deny that out of body experieences exist, but i dont see it as a clear authority for determining the nature of the universe or God.
I believe that the revelation from Allah(God) is what we should submit to and what we should believe in in order to get to know Allah and get to have clear knowledge of the higher realities. We should follow what He has revealed instead of what people conjecture from their little knowledge of the universe.
I advise you to read on Islamqa.com about what they say concerning intuition.
"(He Alone) the All-Knower of the Gha'ib (unseen), and He reveals to none His Gha'ib (unseen)."
Except to a Messenger (from mankind) whom He has chosen (He informs him of unseen as much as He likes), and then He makes a band of watching guards (angels) to march before him and behind him. " [Surah Al-Jinn verses 26-27]
I advise you to read this article:

Ok I'm replying to the old thread which year is 2004. Now I bet people already know and hear people talking about spiritual energy etc in islam... im not going to talk about that.. the issue i want to focus here about astral projection:
Tasawwuf is a branch of Islamic knowledge which focuses on the spiritual development of the muslim. This is like an Astral Projection in Islam. I know that some people said, you don't have to be a religious person to learn Astral Projection because it's a natural process which can be learned by anoyone including atheist. IMO, by projecting yourself without permission from Allah S.W.T you won't find what are you looking for. Let say, you want to learn Astral Projection because you want to communicate with Allah S.W.T. It's impossible to do that because it's Allah that determined who can see HIM. If you want to see him without ibadat to him, that is impossible. So, people who like to learn Astral Projection based on Islam here is how: http://www.tasawwuf.org/basics/what_tasawwuf.htm
I'm wondering, (maybe I'm going to find out later) how does our prophet Muhd S.A.W gained his wahyu from Allah S.W.T? Through an angle right? How does a prophet saw an angle? I know this question might be stupid and shoudln't be ask by a person like me because I don't have enough knowledge about Islam but I'm considering myself as a muslim. It's a beautiful religion. I just wondering and always asking myself that did our prophet contact the angle through Tasawwuf (Astral Projection)? What do you think. Wallahualam.
