VIDEO: Why does Mawlana Hazar Imam insist we make value judgements? | Ignition Proposal
PART 1 -- In our previous presentation on cosmopolitan ethics and pluralism (part 0), we cited extensive guidance from Mawlana Hazar Imam to explain why, on the one hand, he insists we embrace pluralism, and on the other, insists on firm moral boundaries which reject values not aligned with ours. In this follow-up two-part series we ask, "Are your values aligned with Hazar Imam's?" by looking at what are and are not our values. In Part 1, using a First Principles approach, we look at a fatal misunderstanding about value judgments that prevents us from setting boundaries Hazar Imam insists we set to delineate what are and what are not our values. In Part 2 we will look at why just one notion, relativism, triggers most questions about values today, and why Hazar Imam rejects relativism in one word.

Help Your Teens Clean up Social Media Before the Cancel Culture Comes for Them
THEFEDERALIST.COM -- [ISMAILI DIGEST ED: Hazrat Ali: "World-wide glory can be undone by an hour's degradation. You will never find an equivalence for wounded honour."] ARTICLE: It's not uncommon to hear about people (famous or otherwise) ruthlessly attacked by the cancel culture because of old, long-forgotten online behavior. Parents of teens and young adults must be aware of cancel culture and the future ramifications of internet behavior for their children and start actively addressing it. It's just as important as talking about being kind to people in real life, because the electronic record of their online stupidity can be pulled up and used against them in job situations and other adult interactions. Do you know what platforms your teen is using? Really? All of them? You might be surprised, because research indicates ...

News Flash for Digest + Ignition Clearing up Myths about Creativity and Generating New Ideas for the Community | Ismaili Digest's Team Talks to You
"While conventional wisdom suggests group brainstorming is the best approach to creativity, innovation and insight, real world experience, research from the last 40 years, and even the greatest creative minds in history, all testify that real creativity, real innovation, real insight first happens when we work with our thoughts, alone, not in groups, teams or committees. Steve Wozniak, co-founder of Apple, famously said in his memoir, 'I don't believe anything really revolutionary has ever been invented by committee.' Often we think we don't have the confidence or knowledge or experience to do think for ourselves, or that only 'experts' should think about such things, but that, in my view, is fundamentally mistaken."

News Flash for Digest + Ignition Nimira's Blog - On Faith (via Ismaili Digest)
During a visit to the Aga Khan Library, Nairobi, after reviewing some pamphlets on our faith, Mawlana Sultan Muhammad Shah remarked that people did not have time to read big books, but such pamphlets were quickly read and, therefore, more effective. Today, this is perhaps even more true, and we can't think of any Ismaili website, institutional or private, who has implemented the Imam's advice more brilliantly than Nimira's Blog. Since Nimira Dewji launched her blog, in early 2019, she has already written, by herself, over 250 articles on Ismaili history and Muslim civilisations. The short, but always interesting pieces, are routinely among the most popular pieces published in the community. If you read nothing else, you owe it to yourself to read Nimira's Blog.

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. |
