Part 15 -- Statecraft; Justice; Oppression; Tyranny -- Maxims of Ali
GOOGLE.COM -- The worst country is that in which the inhabitants are not in safety. ~~ It is right that the king should govern himself before governing his subjects. ~~ It is the duty of a ruler to select for the people what he selects for himself. ~~ The decline of a kingdom shows itself: in loss of principle; in attachment to trifles; in bad men getting the upper hand; in the meritorious being kept down. ~~ Do justly, and your power will last. ~~ Three classes of men are cut off from the benediction of heaven -- the oppressors, those who aid and abet oppression, those who tolerate oppression. ~~ Whoever rides the horse of ...

Part 2: Have you ever changed your own interpretation of Hazar Imam's guidance after hearing someone else's point of view? | Ignition Question #5b
In Part 1, of this two-part Ignition Question, we highlighted remarks from Imams that advise us that we may indeed make mistakes in our own, personal interpretations of our faith. However, knowing we may be mistaken, in theory, is one thing. Admitting we are wrong, and changing a deeply held position or belief or worldview on some issue, is quite another. Here, in Part 2, we introduce a new perspective on open-mindness and see what "abandoning false conceptions" about faith, as Mawlana Sultan Muhammad Shah advises us to do, actually looks like in practice.

Tuesday's Teachings (From Life) Walt Disney on How to Stay Motivated and Bounce Back From Failure In Life
MAYOOSHIN.COM -- Long before Disney's success, and the fairy-tale, 'happily ever after' Disney films, Disney lived a much less privileged life. A life of poverty, adversity and failure. At the tender age of nine years old, Disney was working seven days a week as a newspaper delivery boy for his father's newspaper business. Unlike other kids his age, Disney would wake up at 3.30 a.m. each day, deliver newspapers before heading to school and return back to work before the end of the school day. The work was especially grueling during the winter. Oftentimes, Disney would ...

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. |
