Majlis 21 -- The Laws of Behaviour for the Relations of the Imam -- Qadi al-Nu'man's Code of Conduct for the Followers of Imam
GOOGLE.COM -- Imam Jafar Sadiq said, "In this matter [of acknowledging the Imam of his time], our relations and others are all alike. It is the duty of the relatives of the Imam to know the true position of the Imam and set an example to others by submitting themselves to his will.... They should never allow themselves to be carried away by the idea that because of their relationship with the Imams they are superior to others. They should never imagine that because of their relationship they are exempted from the duties which are imposed on us all alike. On the contrary they should realize that their responsibility in the matter of devotion to the Imam is much heavier than that of any one else. ...

Tuesday's Teachings (From Life) How Darwin Thought: The Golden Rule of Thinking
FS.BLOG -- One of Darwin's great strengths was his extraordinary breadth of curiosity. He read eclectically. Over the years he collected an enormous quantity of interconnected facts across scientific fields. He looked for patterns but was intrigued equally by exceptions to the patterns, and exceptions to the exceptions. Not only was Darwin thinking broadly, taking in facts at all turns and on many subjects, but he was thinking carefully. He was on the hunt for truth and not necessarily to confirm some highly-loved idea. Darwin's great success, by his own analysis, owed to his ability to see, note, and learn from objections to his cherished thoughts. ...

How to homeschool your kids like a pro during coronavirus quarantine
NYPOST.COM -- [ISMAILI DIGEST ED: For our many past articles on this subject, please search Ismaili Digest for "homeschool".] ARTICLE: "To be honest, I didn't really have a clue what I was doing, but we muddled through," says Falik, 41. "It wound up being a fun, successful morning." Muddling through -- at least during the early days of home education -- is exactly what expert Courtney Ostaff, recommends to parents considering that option. What about simulating that classroom experience? Do kids really need a separate learning space? Ostoff says parents shouldn't worry about it. "All you really need is a flat surface like a kitchen or dining table," she says. Her general rule of thumb regarding time spent homeschooling is 15 minutes for each year of a child's life. Therefore a 6-year-old would receive tuition for 90 minutes, while an 8-year-old would get two hours. For established homeschoolers ...

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. |
