Differences Between a Secular and a Religious Upbringing
[H/T MOHIB EBRAHIM] -- THEEPOCHTIMES.COM -- [ISMAILI DIGEST ED: Hazar Imam, 1965: "The danger is that the left-wing attitudes tend not only to destroy the Faith of a man towards his religion but also the respect of one individual towards another. When the Faith is broken down everything goes with it: the family, society, the individual, the intelligence."] ARTICLE: Anyone who thinks about the current civil war in America comes to realize that it is, in large measure, a war between the religious and the anti-religious. The Left has contempt for religion. And while there are secular conservatives who fight the Left, the largest and most effective opposition comes from conservative Christians and Jews. Most religious kids -- especially those who attend traditional Christian and Jewish schools -- are raised with different values than most secular kids. Here are some examples: No. 1: Religious upbringing: Fight yourself. Secular upbringing: Fight society. I studied ...

The Death Of Truth In America Is A Direct Result Of Our Loss Of Faith
THEFEDERALIST.COM -- [ISMAILI DIGEST ED: Hazar Imam, 2016: "Some people say, is that we live in a "post-fact" society. Yes, a post-fact society. It's not just that everyone feels entitled to his or her own opinion -- that's a good thing. But the problem comes when people feel they are entitled to their own facts." ~~ Hazar Imam, 2006: "How can we inspire people to reach beyond ... unprincipled relativism?"] ARTICLE: We've deluded ourselves into believing that truth is relative. We see this surfacing in our norms, education system, media, and politics. Men identify as women and we accept that as truth. If you question the new leftist orthodoxy of "it's all relative," you face the wrath of "cancel culture." If you want to know the reason for the death of truth in America, look to the decline of Judeo-Christian values laid out in the Bible. All of Western civilization is in decline because the church is in decline. The fall of the church is due to the fact that it has become unmoored from truth -- following the culture instead of ...

The Universal Divine Order -- BoAI Vol #4
GOOGLE.COM -- Because previous great Prophets had "Asas" who succeeded them, as Ali succeeded Prophet Muhammed, the Ismailis held that no religion could claim a monopoly of truth. This basic doctrine is the doctrine of the universal divine order. However, the view of the Ismailis differed from that of the other Muslim philosophers, in that it sprang from their belief in a universal divine and moral law governing the universe. And, therefore, for Ismailis, philosophy's purpose was to not only work out the allegorical interpretation ("ta'wil") of the revelations of the stories of Prophets, but also a complete religious system which would make intelligible the "haqa'iq" (truth) of the missions of the Prophets and thereby open the only way to salvation. Having ...

Think of Ismaili Digest as the Front Page of all the best Ismaili websites! Ismaili Digest automatically and continuously brings together all new articles, photos, videos, etc. from Ismaili websites -- like The Ismaili, Simerg, IIS, NanoWisdoms, AKDN, Ismailimail, etc. -- so you can see them all at once. Direct links to over 15,000 web-pages from the best Ismaili websites already available. Ismaili Digest saves you (and those who are not tech savvy, such as seniors) the effort of having to visit them one by one to keep up to date, or have your inbox cluttered with emails from each of them when they publish new content. In a busy world, our sense of belonging to our community sometimes tends to wither and fade (particularly for isolated Jamati members). We hope Ismaili Digest's simplicity and comprehensiveness will help you feel connected as well as feel the local and global pulse of the community. Like many other non-commercial, public-service thematic website aggregators, Ismaili Digest is just a thematic aggregator. We publish short 50-60 word digests of all their content and provide direct links to their original pages saving you time, extra page loads and clicks. For the website publishers, direct links ensure they'll get the maximum number of potential visitors reaching their content so their hard work gets the maximum exposure. Also featured are other important articles, research and opinions relevant to the community's well being, intellectual growth, best practises and administration. And all served with a drop of humour as well, because "we are a community that welcomes the smile!" Ismaili Digest is not associated with any private Ismaili website, whether aggregated by Ismaili Digest or not. All websites Ismaili Digest aggregates are independent websites run by their individual owners and we are not responsible for content they publish. |
