The thin line between zeal of Simon and pharisaic abuse: Prophet (s) said if your maid commits adultery, let the sacred law deal with her, but you have no right to insult her. Also, Quran warns about insulting past enemies.
Hyper happiness
When one is able to distinguish good happiness and bad happiness, one becomes capable of experiencing hyper happiness. I like euthymic hyper happiness.
Traditional succinctness
To an orthodox scholar on the issue of succinctness: انگریزی سامعین مختصر اور جامع اقوال پسند کرتے ہیں لیکن میں استفسار پر تشریح کردیتا ہوں دقیق دوست اختصار سے محظوظ بھی ہوتے ہیں لیکن آپ وضاحت طلب چیزوں کی نشاندہی ضرور فرمایا کریں سب کے علم میں اضافہ ہوگا
Competition for modern and traditional credibility
Traditionalists distributed laptops and modernists are distributing langar free meals. We want credibility we do not have.
Fundamentalists as failed truthseekers
“Fundamentalist literalism is a modern heresy, one that breaks from Christian practice with such violence as to call into question whether those who practice it are still truly obedient to the apostolic faith at all. That is not an accusation, but it is a lament. You may be pure, but your premises are corrupt.”
David Bentley Hart
Ishmael Abraham Like Khariji or Ibadi Islam. They killed Caliph Ali yet he called them truthseekers reaching wrong conclusions.

Contemporary suffering is a blessing in disguise
Mónica Caro Həsənova Ameen. We say that final suffering will be a blessing in disguise. Heaven will be disguised as hell and hell will be disguised as heaven. Modern pursuit of happiness became unhappy due to pursuit of mirage of perfection called atelephobia.
Islam and Christian orientalism
Nick Elam Traditional refutations had been polemical because our Prophet (s) is Moses and Jesus in one. Jesus couldn’t unintentionally marry and couldn’t become a king, which will realize in second advent, so Christians treated Islam as worldly like Judaism. Modern refutations are based on the premise than Islam teaches pluralism and everyone can go to heaven without any concern for truthful accuracy. If Christians studied their own origins of Hebrew culture, Islam would not seem foreign to them. And, Muslim philosophers have tried to make Islam close to Greco-Roman Europe, like Paul did in case of Christianity.

Tough love can manage oversleeping but not sleep disorder
My wife acts like Ibn Taymiya and expects like Ibn Arabi
Khawaja Fahad Iqbal I don’t think you should discuss your marital life in public like this.
Ishmael Abraham Khawaja Fahad Iqbal Didn’t Prophet (s) discuss love for Aisha (ra) publicly. It’s both a compliment and description
Khawaja Fahad Iqbal Was that a compliment?
Ok in that case please carry on.
Ok in that case please carry on.
Ishmael Abraham Khawaja Fahad Iqbal I am lazy in fajr due to sleep disorder and she awakens like Caliph Umar (ra) a rare breed in modern world
