32nd Imam - al-Mustansir bi-Allah II - by Mumtaz Ali Tajddin
GOOGLE.COM -- In Pandiyat-i Jawanmardi, we find different terms for the Imam that became vogue among Imam al-Mustansir bi-Allah II's followers, such as Imam-i Zaman, Imam-i Hazar, Sahibu'z Zaman, Ali Zaman, Sahibu'l Amr and Hazar Jama. Due to the state of Ismailis in Iran, Syria, India, Badakhshan and other parts of Central Asia , the Imam urged his followers to assist one another. He said: "The real believer is one who assists and helps his brother in religion, who shares with him his food, his sorrow and joy, never admitting into his heart any malice or enmity, being one with him in word and deed. If one satisfies his hunger, the other's hunger must also be satisfied. If one remains hungry, the other should remain hungry too. If one eats ...

Tuesday's Teachings (From Life)
Cambridge University Just Delivered A Clear Victory For Free Speech
THEFEDERALIST.COM -- [ISMAILI DIGEST ED: Hazar Imam, at Harvard, 2015: "What is needed, as the former Governor General of Canada Adrienne Clarkson has said, and I quote, is a readiness 'to listen to your neighbour, even when you may not particularly like him.' Is that message clear? You listen to people you don't like!"] ARTICLE: Those with illiberal ideas have transformed colleges from institutions of open debate into the least welcoming environment for diversity of ideas. Their aggressive tactics have cowed many staff and students, with opposing views, into silence. However, free speech just scored a major win at Cambridge, one of the most "woke" college campuses. When it proposed a new speech censoring policy, free speech proponents pushed back. Arif Ahmed, an associate professor, offered 3 amendments supported by faculty, students and even the Cambridge Radical Feminist Network. Nevertheless, the university rejected them. However, after heavy pressure, they allowed the university's 7,000 staff a vote and more than 80% approved all 3 amendments. Defending free speech isn't a battle between conservatives and liberals: it's a battle between freedom and tyranny. Cambridge presents a winning approach to push back what's known as the "woke" mob: first ...

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. |
