I have always been skeptical of military industrial complex because of the tragedy it has caused to the traditional world in Palestine, Iraq and Afghanistan. So, I have explored research areas like BioMEMS as an ethical alternative. But reading this had been painful. Please at least salvage this area from serving the military industrial complex.

Refuting a trinitarian Zionist in biblical terms
Thomas Edward Morgan Jr. Deuteronomy 29:25-29 “and they will say, ‘ALLAH (the accursed), for they forsook the covenant of Yahweh the God of their fathers, Asshur (he who shall come forth) shall cut off they who were brought out of the land of Egypt.’ They will come to serve another god (Allah), and prostrate before a god, Asshur (he who shall come forth) shall know to divide. And the breath of Yahweh shall burn against that land (Palestine whole – see Isaiah 14:29-31) to bring upon all a curse written in this book. Yahweh shall uproot the land in anger, fury of great wrath, to cast another land as it is this day concealed. Yahweh our God. Uncover the Son. For unto the last, this is the observance of all of the words of this book of law.” Ishmael Abraham Both US and Israel worship the golden calf and Sodom instead of One God of Abraham, Ishmael and Isaac peace be upon them. So, you should fear being uprooted. The verse 17 even talks about punishment for sinful thoughts and in US and Israel people proudly express their sinful thoughts. The verse 29 talks about observance of all laws of Torah. Do you obey all laws of Torah? Are you circumcised? Do you avoid pork? -
Authentic Torah Zionism and how greco-roman pagan culture tries to destroy it
Ishmael Abraham Hertzl was anything but orthodox.James Lay Zionism predates Hertzl, he may have been responsible for the modern take on it but it’s integral to the Jewish culture and religion.Ishmael Abraham We believe in Torah Zionism too which means that God’s laws should prevail in the Holy Land. But heretic Godless Zionists use that desire of believers to advance gay rights and greco-roman paganism of western culture.James Lay Nothing wrong with gay rights or the Greco-Roman pagan culture.Ishmael Abraham The cultural imperialists think like that. But we are not like Native Americans, we have Quran.James Lay Native Americans had less of a hangup about homosexuality than their European western counterparts. In fact homosexuality has more of a stigma in the judeo Christian islamic traditions. The Quran doesn’t mean anything to me, it has the same position as any other holy book.Ishmael Abraham But their traditional culture has been completely obliterated. And, we and our future generations will keep resisting it. Prostitution arrived in North America with the early European settlers. According to The Reader’s Companion to American History, there was no Native American counterpart to the purchase of sexual favors (Gilfoyle) -
A unifying story: Sitting together at the blessed pulpit and playing with pebbles
The second Caliph of Islam and the Prophetic grandson sitting together on Prophetic pulpit.أقلب حصى بيدي میرے ہاتھ مین کنکریان تھین جن کے ساتھ مین کھیلتا رہاYe jumla zahir karta he ke Apka ikhtilaf dil lagi awr muhabbat per mabni tha.I kept playing with pebbles in my hand while sitting on the pulpit. This statement shows that the disagreement was based on humour and affection.واہ اچھا ہے -
Silicon valley and EE vs CE: Dialogue with one of the brightest minds of engineering from my Muslim country
Me:What is your favorite area in EE?Yar my focus shifted a bit towards computer engineering. I mean the overlapping area between EE and CE. So mostly I’m doing some kind of programming.VHDL or C++? I think programming is suited to your logical nature of IQ, while I was horrified by programming because my IQ is of spatial nature. I love understanding structures like a cell in biology or structure of semiconductor devices. CE always seems as the most latest and popular thing because masses interact with it more while EE can seem to be a boring traditional discipline beyond the admiration of masses.He works for Silicon valley. May God protect him from contributing to murderous military industrial complex and may he serve in partially philanthropic industries like biomedical engineering.Do you work on military or biomedical projects? Neither. These days working on home automation kind of projectsThanks God, we do not serve the nwo military industrial complex.Hahaha. And to respond to your earlier query, I use C, C++, python etcI fear python and its brothers like Moses peace be upon him .

How Islam saved us from the equivalent of struggle between greek mysticism and greek rationalism
I am happy that trinitarian greek orthodox church did not ban me. I was curious about greek mysticism because modern world is more influenced by greek rationalism which is employed by secularists to supposedly bury God. I am happy to learn that those with greek DNA still have love in their hearts for the spiritual homeland of Middle East. -
How to Scripturally and intelligently deradicalize a trinitarian Christian extremist
Thomas Edward Morgan Jr. Jesus is God in physical form.The Father is Shekinah Glory and boundless.The Holy Spirit is the fullness of God indwelling sinful men.Jesus can reveal the Father or Shekinah Glory by transfiguring. We can gain Jesus’ spirit by becoming a believer in the power of His blood to cover our sin.If I step boldly before the throne of God, I shall see Christ Jesus sitting at the throne.I will be filled with the Holy Spirit.Shekinah Glory shall be filling the whole of the heavens.What is not to understand? These three are one.Ishmael Abraham Can God take the physical form of an idol? I think Shekinah is creation not Creator. God mentions Shekinah in Quran 2:248 9:26 9:40 48:4 48:18 48:26. For the curiosity of Shia readers, most of these verses are from Chapter of Repentance which mentions the first Caliph of Islam and Chapter of Victory which contains the most famous verse honouring the blessed Companions. I think God the Creator is the fullness of God. Since the concept of indwelling can lead to heresy of making an infinite God occupy a finite space, we use the concept of spiritual vitality and/or re-birth as mentioned in Quran 8:24 and 36:70. I think if spirit supposedly indwells, we cease to be sinners but when we become sinners faith departs. This is how the Ishmaelite light of gentiles (p) described it. He said: When a believer commits fornication, faith departs him and hovers over him like a shadow and when he stops doing that the faith returns. We believe that ink of sacred scholars is more beloved to God than blood of martyrs and according to Ezekiel 18:20 no one can die for the sins of another. However, God commands in Quran 108:2 that we should spill the blood of animals to remind us of the Abrahamic sacrifice. We also believe that an Ishmaelite saint gave his blood for God in desert of karbala. We admit that Jesus peace be upon him had willingness to give blood but since he is a victorious King Messiah, even secular Antichrist cannot kill him. If you really want to be close to the Throne of God please recite Quran 2:255 and 9:129. Some sufi Muslims also think that the Ishmaelite light of gentiles will sit with God on his throne, but orthodox scholars consider it a heretical and blasphemous concept. I understand the concepts you use more than American secularists whom you love more, but I find the hypostatic union an influence of greco-roman paganism which has seduced both Christians and secularists.Thomas Edward Morgan Jr. Sampson was indwelt and slew humans who were as wicked as Muslims in the thousands.Ishmael Abraham Muslims fight with jawbones like Samson while America has weapons like Goliath?Assalamu alaykum. This article has helped me during dialogue with a trinitarian militant Christian on the concept of indwelling of spirit. Thanks a lot. -
Night of Siffin: Dialogue with a religious Talmudic Jew regarding Zuckerberg, Shema and lost tribes
Alperovich Anatoly Ishmael Abraham sorry , i had a post of lost tribes in afghan . I dont know why they deleted itIshmael Abraham Israeli govt or fb admin?Alperovich Anatoly Lol. I think fb, it was Israeli post .Ishmael Abraham But Zuckerberg is Jewish too?Ishmael Abraham But he is secular.Alperovich Anatoly I will try to check now.Alperovich Anatoly Yes, i think he is .Alperovich Anatoly So… your tribesman as well .Alperovich Anatoly Tislam, Ishmael.Ishmael Abraham Shalom on truth seekers. It is written in sacred Islamic texts that God will grant victory to children of Isaac peace be upon him without weapons through dhikr or reciting the remembrance of God by glorifying Him and His holy names. That’s why I told you never to forget reciting Shema before sleeping. Ishmaelite leader of saints Imam Ali(as) said that I did not forget reciting dhikr even during the night of battle of Siffin which was a civil war. So, do not forget that even in the most stressful and anxious days of your life until you die.Alperovich Anatoly Thank you for that , i remember . -
A Bosnian victim of military imperialism supports cultural imperialism of Sodom
Divine peace be upon the truth seekers. Muslim worldview sees homosexuality as sinful as rape because both are acts of sexual gratification contrary to the commandments of God. The latter involves one sinner while former involves two sinners. I do not think that the 20,000 women who were raped in Bosnian war would want to be homosexuals, because we are horrified by both. She should sympathize with female victims of Bosnian war and should not make herself and Muslim women the victims of cultural imperialism just like they have been victims of military imperialism. God says in Quran that fitna(temptation) is more destructive than murder because being martyred leads to Paradise and being seduced leads to Fire. When a victim of military imperialism supports cultural imperialism it is an instance of Stockholm’s syndrome. -
Is disagreeing with American scholars of Islam cannibalistic backbiting
When a Companion disrespected another black Companion, the Prophet(p) said: You still have traces of pre-Islamic ignorance.At the recent RIS Conference in Toronto, Hamza Yusuf spoke disparagingly of Black Lives Matter movement and the Muslim Brotherhood.Илия Александр Лахоз There’s no single sociopolitical viewpoint that is obligatory upon Muslims. Holding a position that is out of fashion in that realm is not one of the exceptions to back biting. This is especially true in the case of ulama.Ibn ‘Asaakir (499 A.H. – 571 A.H.) (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:((اعلم يا أخي – وفقني الله وإياك لمرضاتِهِ وجعلني وإياك ممن يتقيه حق تقاته – إِن لُحُوم الْعلمَاء رَحْمَة اللَّه عَلَيْهِم مَسْمُومَة، وَعَادَة اللَّه فِي هتك أَسْتَار منتقصيهم مَعْلُومَة لِأَن الوقيعة فيهم بِمَا هم مِنْهُ برَاء أمره عَظِيم والتنَاول لأعراضهم بالزور والافتراء مرتع وخيم والاختلاق على من اخْتَارَهُ اللَّه مِنْهُم لنعش الْعلم خلق ذميم))“And know my brother – may Allaah guide me and you to seek His pleasure and make me and you from among those who fear Him as He should be feared – that the flesh of the scholar is poisonous. And the custom of Allaah in removing the screens from those who seek to belittle them is well-known. This is because attacking them in matters that they are free from is truly a tremendous matter.Surrounding their reputation with lies and fabrications is infertile grounds, and differing with those whom Allaah has chosen amongst them to disperse the knowledge is a dishonorable characteristic.”[Source: Tabyeen Kadhib al-Muftaree, p. 29]Ibn ‘Asaakir (may Allaah have mercy on him) also said:من أطلق لِسَانه فِي الْعلمَاء بالثلب بلاه اللَّه عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قبل مَوته بِمَوْت الْقلب“Whoever speaks ill of the (righteous) scholars, Allaah will give death to that person’s heart before He will give death to that person.”[Source: Tabyeen Kadhib al-Muftaree, p. 425]Ishmael Abraham Does it apply to him too because he once called the traditional ulama naql-heads? Criticizing those who struggle in the path of God should also be sinful. God says that political activists who try to make the word of God supreme are superior in the sight of God to passive Muslims. Quran 4:95. I do love him when he is right but scholarly difference was treated by the righteous predecessors as a mercy.When Abul Hasan Ali Nadwi a scholar from Prophetic family through Imam Hasan (r), visited US, he had warned against the dangers of an American form of Islam.Илия Александр Лахоз So BLM = المجاهدون فى سبيل اللهIshmael Abraham No. I am talking about Al-Banna who was martyred and even Tariq Ramadan who has a political philosophy.Илия Александр Лахоз That’s a whole other discussion, but 90% of the article is taking him to task about racial politics. Ishmael Abraham You are right. A liberal from Bangladesh Atif Choudhury was promoting the article who has also called Nouman Ali Khan an abusive preacher. I do hate BLM for the qawm Lut among them. But still I am skeptical about the global Sufi liberal alliance against Sola Scriptura scholars.
