Part 5 -- Good Men; Bad Men -- Maxims of Ali
GOOGLE.COM -- One of the finest of a liberal man's gestures is not to take advantage of what he knows of others. ~~ The worst of men is one who is all agog to see the defects of another, but is blind to his own vices. ~~ The man the most worthy of pity is the scholar at the orders of an ignoramus, the man of a generous nature directed by an avaricious man, and one of piety dictated to by a debauchee. ~~ A good man revolts against violence, but shows himself mild and reasonable, if well treated. The rascal is hard and gross in the presence of kindness, humbling himself only to harshness. ~~ The wicked man thinks no good of any one; for how ...

THEFEDERALIST.COM -- At my local grocery store this week I came across an older man looking distressed at the many options of formula in front of him. I asked if he needed help to find what he was looking for, because I know that can be overwhelming. He said he knew what he needed but it was so darn expensive. He needed to get it for his daughter, who was in town because she lost her job due to the coronavirus. We parted but I just felt a pull to purchase a of couple cans for him. He broke down in tears, saying he had been contemplating how to steal those cans. Then he embraced me. We didn't have masks. All we had was our humanity. And that's exactly ...

Religious Architecture: HIKMA - A Religious and Secular Complex, Niger - Library
ARCHDAILY.COM -- In the 9th century AD, Muslim scholars made remarkable contributions to the sciences and humanities in Bagdad's Bayt al-Hikma, or House of Wisdom, a library and research center housing the world's largest collection of books for scholars to engage both theological and scientific matters. Today's religious climate could use such freedom to pursue knowledge alongside religious practice. With the support of local leaders, women, and youth, the Hikma project re-introduces these values embedded in Islam itself, by transforming a derelict mosque into a library that shares its site with a new mosque for the village of Dandaji in Niger. The project is a culture and education hub where the secular and religious peacefully co-exist to cultivate minds and strengthen the community. ...

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. |
