Ignition Paradigm Proposals: 21st Century Perspectives on Our Faith and Community | Ismaili Digest's Team Talks to You
"Ignition Paradigm Proposals are inspired by Hazar Imam's 1989 guidance where he said: 'Bring forward your ideas. It is only a stupid person who does not listen to ideas. It means he is like a horse ... who lives with blinkers [and] all they can see ahead of them is a little tiny dimension of light.... It is only that sort of a horse that goes straight, straight, straight, straight, straight and it never looks for a new direction, a new idea, something creative. Let's not be a horse with blinkers.... No, that is not for our Jamat. ... Have confidence in your own judgement, confidence in your ability to analyse problems, confidence in your ability to develop solutions to those problems.'"

Help Your Teens Clean up Social Media Before the Cancel Culture Comes for Them
THEFEDERALIST.COM -- [ISMAILI DIGEST ED: Hazrat Ali: "World-wide glory can be undone by an hour's degradation. You will never find an equivalence for wounded honour."] ARTICLE: It's not uncommon to hear about people (famous or otherwise) ruthlessly attacked by the cancel culture because of old, long-forgotten online behavior. Parents of teens and young adults must be aware of cancel culture and the future ramifications of internet behavior for their children and start actively addressing it. It's just as important as talking about being kind to people in real life, because the electronic record of their online stupidity can be pulled up and used against them in job situations and other adult interactions. Do you know what platforms your teen is using? Really? All of them? You might be surprised, because research indicates ...

The Ismaili - Nutrition Centre
Tomato and Roast Pepper Soup
Healthy Hints The red peppers and tomatoes provide anti-oxidant nutrients lycopene and beta carotene. Interestingly, when you process or cook these vegetables, the lycopene becomes more "bio-available" to the body, which means your body can make better use of it. Although each serving has almost 8 grams of fat, note that most of this fat is the healthy mono-unsaturated type. Serve ...

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.

A Jamatkhana at the Roof of the World: Integrating Tajikistan's Ismailis into a Global Network
[H/T DR. DANIEL BEBEN] -- AJAMMC.COM -- The Pamir house is normally built of at least two large rooms ... The second room, however, is the real heart of the home. Five pillars hold up the room ... Locals give an alternate explanation [for the five pillars] steeped in Islamic and Ismaili cosmology. The five pillars are associated with the ahl al-bayt, the family of the the prophet Mohammed, including his cousin and successor Ali, the prophet's daughter and Ali's wife, Fatima, as well as their children Hassan and Hussein. The number of beams in the ceiling are made to correspond to either the Army of Hussein (72), the prophets and caliphs (13) or the Ismaili Imams (49). ...

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. |
