Salim-el-azhar Ebrahim: Islam Explained
ISLAM: A BRIEF NOTE by Salim e-a Ebrahim Islam is NOT a political ideology, a political theology, a political system, a political venture, or a political empire.

VIDEO: "A Signature in History" -- Assessing the Ismaili Imamat's Authenticity | Ignition Proposal
Today's Jamat, especially the younger Jamat in the West, seeks more than traditional, philosophical arguments for God and the Imamat because those are often not intellectually satisfying. Rooted in the fundamental principle that faith is and always has been evidence based, as has been unambiguously explained by our Imams and the Qur'an, "The Ismaili Imamat: A Signature in History," is a new, highly acclaimed, objective assessment of the Ismaili Imamat's authenticity using a fresh, ground-breaking approach. We are confident these videos will be of particular interest to parents, young adults, youth, especially high school and university students as well was the wider Jamat.

10th Imam - Razi al-Din Abdillah - by Mumtaz Ali Tajddin
GOOGLE.COM -- Imam Razi al-Din Abdillah is celebrated for devoting time to complete the task of his father, his teachings and institutions. In his time, the faith of the Ismailis spread by leaps and bounds with galloping speed through out the length and breath of Arabia. He was an erudite scholar and epitomized Ikhwan as-Safa into an instructive synopsis (al-jamia). Its full name was ar-Risalat al-Jamia (the comprehensive epistle) which served as a substitute for the Epistle of Ikhwan as-Safa, intended for private circulation among the more advanced members of the groups. ...

NanoWisdoms Extended Quotes (via Ismaili Digest)
Perhaps the best kept secret in the Ismaili community, and NanoWisdoms' Crown Jewels, the Extended Quote collection brings together most, if not all, of Mawlana Hazar Imam's remarks (and many from prior Imams) related to some 250 topics so we can better understand the full depth of his full insights and perspectives about each of them. Topics include Hazar Imam's successor, the Imam's gender, secularism, dogma, innovation and thinking independently, marriage and children, miracles, Ayat al-Nur, tradition and modernity, dasond and Imamat finances, the Left, cautionary notes on Western social values, alcohol, accountability, reincarnation, women, and much, much more you probably never knew Hazar Imam has talked about.

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. |
