11th Imam - Muhammad al-Mahdi - by Mumtaz Ali Tajddin
GOOGLE.COM -- Imam Muhammad al-Mahdi assumed the Imamate at the age of 8 years and left Salamia at 26. Unnoticed, he travelled with his escort by night to Egypt where he chose not to go Yamen as was expected. This turned out to be a wise decision since, in Yamen, he risked confrontation with the Abbasids and Qarmatians. On arriving in Raqada on 297/910, Imam al-Mahdi laid the foundation of the Fatimid Caliphate ordering his name be mentioned in the khutba and inscribed on coins. He began to develop the barren land of Maghrib and imposed Islamic laws, strictly prohibiting forbidden food and drink. In 301/914, he founded a new city on the coast ...

Wokeism Is Collapsing On Itself
[H/T MOHIB EBRAHIM] --THEFEDERALIST.COM -- [ISMAILI DIGEST ED: Hazar Imam, 1965: "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: Arguably, wokeism is defined by its rejection of Nature on gender, sexuality, the laws of economics, energy and rationality itself. But, Nature always has the final say, and we're seeing that in the slow retreat of leftists from wokeism. Hardly a day goes by when a writer confesses some variation of, "I'm a proud progressive, but these new leftists are crazy, and I'm done with the Democrats." The cognitive dissonance created from suspending reality has become too much. But do liberals realize their dissonance is due to leftism rejecting God? All forms of leftism are a house of cards that will collapse, like Nietzsche going insane after using words his whole life only to then say words are suspect. We can only handle so much cognitive dissonance before Nature ...

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. |
