  • Fasting and righteous Caliphate

    Husna Hameed

    ومن أجل ذلك كانت وصية النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم للشباب: (يا معشر الشباب من استطاع منكم الباءة فليتزوج، ومن لم يستطع فعليه بالصوم فإنه له وِجاء)
    Ishmael Abraham We need to build a whole culture of teenage fasting.
    Husna Hameed Sunnah fasting can help..
    Ishmael Abraham To revive Caliphate, we should revive Dawudi fasting of alternate days apparently a mission impossible in 21st century. Sunnah fasting of three days per month is necessary to start building the spiritual stamina.

  • Ishmaelite Prophetic descendant and concupiscence

    Ishmaelite Prophetic descendant Imam Zayn Al-Abidin(p) prayed:

    اللهم اني اعوذ بك من الحاح الشهوة

    O God protect me from the urgent insistence and impulsivity of concupiscence.

  • Hawking and liberal Zionism

    Stephen Hawking I regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when its components fail. There is no heaven or afterlife for broken down computers; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark.

    Strippers made his anti-Zionism a hellenistic/hedonistic project like liberal Zionists. Zionist bombs are controlled by computers. And liberal zionist culture is promoted by broken computers like him. Pious anti-Zionists are more afraid of darkness of modernity than happiness of a death during activism.

  • Jordan Peterson, Church and Islam

    I am also happy to see you approach him through the lens of antinomianism a relatively more important element of modern Christianity than even traditional Christianity. In Islam, an outspoken wife can be a gift for moral and spiritual progress because one of the Mothers in Islam was outspoken scholar of sacred law, but she also repented after she participated in a civil war which shows that even feminism with good intentions can have tragic consequences.

    The truth of Islamic qadar and jihad an nafs lies between Jabariyyah quietism of antinomian Christianity and Mutazilah pelagianism of free will. To some Catholics, he is a modern Pelagian.

    Is Jordan Peterson a Mutazilah pelagianist and an antithesis of Jabariyyah Paul of traditional Christianity?

  • Who are extremists according to Sola Scriptura Salafis?

    The definition of extremist by a Salafi is someone who criticizes Banu Umayyah or any modern dictator. They believe in the Hadith that obey your ruler even if he flogs your back and takes away your money. Scholars explain this Hadith to mean if he flogs you according to Quran not his ego, and if he takes your zakat not corruption.

  • Is God merciful? The story of Muslim saint and a poor widow

    A widow had only three coins. She bought wool for it. A bird came and took away the ball of wool. She wept and went to a Muslim saint Dawud Tai. She asked him: Is God merciful? Meanwhile ten people knocked at the door. They told him that they were in the ocean and there was a hole in their ship and they were about to drown. We vowed to God, that if He saves us we will spend one thousand coins each in charity.Then a bird came and threw the ball of wool in the ship. We used that ball to block the hole and we were saved. We came on the shore and asked for a noble person. They told us about you so take these coins and spend it on the poor. The saint gave the coins to the woman and asked: Is God merciful? She wept and thanked God.

    Modern scientist Dr Basil Al Taei belongs to the tribe of the same saint.

  • An Iranian scholar admitting the primacy of Arabic

    Seeing the establishment of the Shia faith and government in Iran, other scholars of Islam became quite jealous. One such scholar in the court of Shah Tahmasp once mentioned how, if you take the numbers of the year 927 and take the Abjad numerical values of letters, the number 927 equals Madhab Na-Haq (“the false religion”). Muhaqqiq al-Karki immediately challenged the scholar, asking him why he was taking the Persian version of the equation. The language of Islam is Arabic, he said, and in Arabic, the letters combine not to form Madhab Na-Haq, but rather Madhabuna Haq (“our religion is the right one”). The court erupted in jubilation at his quick thinking and wit.

  • The tree of Tuba and loneliness

    Mark Jalaldin deep, Islam can be a lonely faith for many reverts, so the Muslims in general must establish solid base to fall back on in testing times
    Ishmael Abraham May those lonely people anticipate sitting together with Prophets and Prophetic descendants under the shade of the tree of Tuba, because the Prophet(p) gave the good news that Tuba is for those who are considered strangers due to faith. 

  • PVV, suicide of Willie Dille, secularization and xenophobia

    I feel sad due to her suicide. She had a negative view about Islam because she met imperfect or even criminal Muslims. But her xenophobia does not worry me. It is common among both conservative Christians and conservative Muslims. Secularization increases xenophobia because it makes you close minded to all change because most of change is negative. I hope conservative ecumenical apolitical Christians become more vocal and ally with conservative ecumenical apolitical Muslims to overcome xenophobia and secularization.
    I think PVV has a zionist agenda by employing Christian xenophobia towards and ignorance about Islam.

  • Yemen, blasphemous anarchism and pharisaic divisiveness

    Yemen is important because it represents ecumenical semi-Sunni semi-Shia Zaydi theology which can unite the ummah of Ishmaelites. Sunnism represents respect for sacred law. Shi’ism represents revolt of Prophetic descendants. Zaydism represents respectful revolt. Liberals are blasphemous anarchists. Conservatives are pharisaic preachers of commandments. While truth lies in the middle.
