The Lights around the Throne of God:The glorifying Ishmaelitic Prophetic descendants
كنا أنوارا صفوفا حول العرش نسبح
We the Ishmaelitic Prophetic descendants were lights around Arsh the throne of God in rows like rows of prayer glorifying Him.
The tragedies of Job and Zainab, peace be upon both: Two Abrahamic role models of patience
Shalom on truth seekers. I am an orthodox Muslim and like Job peace be upon him, I descend from Esau peace be upon him. I believe the children of Jacob peace be upon him, like Afghan Pashtuns, will be reconciled with children of Ishmael and Esau peace be upon both. I liked this article and in the traditional world both Job peace be upon him and the Ishmaelite saints in the tragedy of karbala; the desert of pain and test, are considered two most pertinent spiritual role models of patience.
After the tragedy of the Ishmaelites in the desert, the surviving Prophetic grand daughter exclaimed that I only see divine beauty in suffering. Such faith is similar to Job peace be upon him
Ethics of elections, cultural struggles and narcissistic and pharisaical temptations
The winners of voting should try to work for an ideal greater than democracy which is gaining the respect of even the minority which chooses to disagree. Pious scientists and researchers can contribute a lot in the inter- cultural struggle, but the intra-cultural struggle is even more painful as evident in story of karbala. . All candidates should make organizational justice their top priority because traditional cultures lack it and our spiritual ideals for which university stands should not be betrayed by its own members. There is a temptation called phariseeism about which both the leaders and followers should be careful. A pharisaical voter or employee exaggerates in criticism of opponents without acknowledging virtues and merits, while a pharisaical leader or boss exaggerates in criticism of subordinates without acknowledging virtues and merits. Another problem in academic atmospheres is narcissism because many of the teachers have academic achievements but this should not stop us from admiring others and looking at weaknesses within, because it is win-win cultures which end up being the leaders of humanity. Even the Companions disagreed in voting but still all the candidates deserve respect. Not voting for anyone does not and should not imply hatred, because even the best Companions could not win perfectly unanimous political support of all members of community, but still support of majority is a practical method.
A beautiful Arabic quote about the Ishmaelite Guided Leader
امام علی (علیه السلام):
«وَبِمَهْدِیِّنا تَنْقَطِعُ الحُجَجُ، فَهُوَ خاتَمُ الأئِمَّةِ وَمُنْقِذُ الأمَّةِ وَمُنْتَهَی النُّورِ وَغامِضُ السِّرِّ.»
He will be the conclusive argument of God, and the perfection of post-Prophetic leaders, and a saviour of the Prophetic nation, and the pinnacle of light and the heart of the mystery.
How Pro-Sunnah Prophetic descendants in Yemen can promote intra-faith dialogue and harmony
Assalamu alaykum. There are apparently two schools in Yemen. One the one hand is the pole of the political Jarudi school and on the other hand is the pole of the political Salafi school. The Shawkani and Amrani school bridges the gap and tries to reconcile the ummah. I am not sure about this seminary but if they have Pro-Sunnah Prophetic descendants, so obviously they can contribute to better intra-faith understanding and dialogue.

Message to a modern nature photographer among Prophetic descendants
Assalamu alaykum bukhari bhai. I am so pre-occupied with reading the blessed and glorious history of your grandfathers that I am not left with time to appreciate your art of photography. But today while occasionally looking at your photos, I said SubhanAllah with greater aesthetic awe than felt within monasteries.

The true story behind Abdullah Shah Ghazi shrine
https://www.dawn.com/news/1145799
Some secular writers have insinuated that later saints were superior to him do not know that those later saints took their inspiration from his martyrdom. He is the son of Muhammad the pure soul who revolted against Abassids.

The forefather of present king Qaboos of Oman loved him and secretly supported him so he was fired from his post due to his love for Prophetic descendants.

Even one polytheistic Sindhi king is said to respect the Prophetic descendants. May God bless our politicians with the same love for intellectual and biological descendants of the Prophet(s). In the last century, Nadwi is a Hasani descendant and Mawdudi is a Husayni descendant and both are neglected by masses like their forefathers.
Even Jewish professors have written the biography of the pure soul who revolted. But ignorant secularized Muslims have forgotten their own history. It should be noted that even the Prophetic family had reservations about foreign forms of mysticism.
It is said that 400 Zaydi disciples accompanied Abdullah Al-Ashtar to Sindh.
