Most INTPs are atheist/agnostic, but I'm somewhat of a rarity as a Muslim INTP. I've always been fascinated by the concept of God. The Islamic conception of God, which is strictly unitarian, always seemed more logical than both the Christian trinity and/or polytheism. Islam has a simple and clear theology, unencumbered by so-called "mysteries" found in some other religions. Furthermore, I've long been interested in metaphysics and cosmological arguments (especially the Kalam argument) and I enjoy analysing them in depth.
Islam is strongly communal (although there is also an emphasis on individual rights) so I sometimes struggle between my highly individualistic and "loner" nature and my duty to interact with believers.
Any other INTP Muslims out there?
