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.

The Moral Basis of a Free Society
[H/T MOHIB EBRAHIM] -- HOOVER.ORG -- [ISMAILI DIGEST ED: Hazar Imam, 1989: "On the question of modernity the issue is essentially whether one is affecting the fundamental moral fabric of society..." ~~ Writing in 1997, the author felt the Internet would help bring the changes in morality needed. However, 25 years later, we now know that the opposite happened. Nevertheless, the article remains true and is essential reading.] ARTICLE: The mere absence of centralized state control does not mean there is freedom, and soulless forces operating freely is actually tyranny in another guise. So what is the moral basis of a free society? Today [1997], citizens and leaders world-wide are looking to America for answers. However, while others look to us, we Americans are seeking answers to painful and bitter questions. We are learning that capitalism and democracy are not enough for a healthy society and that a self-governing nation is made from self-governing individuals. For example, can a free society survive the collapse of the two-parent family? A breakdown in the moral fabric of society has dire consequences and the stakes are enormous. If America makes the necessary moral changes, the rest of the world has a chance. Otherwise ...

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. |
