      It was a lot to take in in one sitting, I'll have to watch it again to absorb more :) BTW 'learned' as a synonym for 'knowledgeable' (e.g. 'my learned colleague') is pronounced with two syllables, i.e. lern-id (rhymes with 'hid') - you'll sometimes see it written in old texts as 'learnèd' - forgive the pedantry, you write more elegantly than I ever will but this minor error snagged my ear while enjoying your dulcet delivery :)

    Hey! I'm generally part of the silent majority but I have to say, videos like these are what makes youtube amazing so thank you for your work and dedication! (I assume this video took forever) It's hard to believe you have so few subscribers and because of it this video probably won't get the attention it deserves so I want make it clear (because I want you to continue making these) that your efforts are very much appreciated, many people like me who usually don't comment feel the same and that those two hours really flew by (it's so well paced). I'll definitely recommend your channel to anyone even vaguely interested in the topic, it's an amazing introduction! And thank you for giving references! Also sorry if anyone already asked you but do you have a university background on the topic or are you simply curious about it?

I have nothing to feed to its algorithm. But the process itself is what I am in love with. Everything else becomes secondary. And when kind people like yourself take the time out to express that it indeed matters in some capacity then it is all the more lovely. Thanks

This video of yours (topic/concept) is truly a rarity. I rarely comment on videos and subscribe to few channels but I've done both of these for your channel without watching any of your videos (yet). Why? Well, other than the fact that I want to be a very early subscriber to a future great channel, reading your comment here, I see a person that is myself! Yes, I was planning on doing exactly what you're doing and I would've posted exactly the same reply as you did (esp. that algorithm and academic background thing). You're the future me, only difference is I'm too lazy to take a start. So glad I found you, I'll be keeping an eye on your channel/progress and learn from someone who's already steps ahead of me on the same road. Sorry I can't comment on the video's content yet but topic/concept of your video is truly one of a kind; and if it's worth any motivation, I whole-heartedly support you and encourage you to keep this thing going strong.

    Reality is a lot more complicated than that.
    Summery of Islam:
    Islam have deep roots from Creed schools to Jurisprudence schools to Sufi schools (beneficence).
    to be a proper Muslim you have to follow one of each school and basically that's the main stream Islam.
    They are sects ofc that don't recognize these, like the famous Salafism who follow only a specific Creed school mainly and recognize the rest as heretics, for Jurisprudence they either interpret alone or see what majority of schools agree upon but they condemn following one school , and for Sufism they considered them all heretics.

    @Ismail0z 10 месяцев назад +1

    It is nice to be acquainted with the Qadari and Mu'tazila schools of thought. I believe if these schools had continued their activities, it's quite certain the Arabic world would have been sophisticated for centuries to come. However, Mu'tazilas were too harsh for creationists who are dogmatic. It is the biggest mistake when the righteous use force to convert others to their ideas. Iran is suffering today from the same mistake. When you are right, you must be calm because you are right; you can be a great non-violent hākim.
    After the Mu'tazila movement, all other philosophers became extinct from the public arena, which is why figures like Al-Razi or Ibn-i Sina didn't have a significant impact on the public. I believe this is where the Arabic Golden Age became a court of intellectuals. If intellectuals don't have a meaningful connection with the public, their effectiveness diminishes. In contrast, Western intellectuals were connected with the public, and their works were published and read by random people, providing strength to intellectual ideas to flourish in there.

    The Brethren of Purity were not a Sufi order; instead, they were Ismaili. Despite Al-Ghazali initially making takfir on Ibn Sina and Ismaili, he was influenced by both. Towards the end of his life, Al-Ghazali appeared to align with many of Ibn Sina's teachings. Scholars like Marshall Hodgson and Farouk Mitha argue that Al-Ghazali adopted a version of talim influenced by the Ismaili doctrine.

    • @almostwise
      @almostwise  10 месяцев назад +2

      Yes they were most likely Ismaili. Some attribute the epistles towards Ibn al haitham and some towards Jafar al sadiq. In addition to being called ismailis, many scholars however do put them into other categories as well, such as sufis, nusayris and even mutazillites. The section on the brethren in the video is heavily condensed, I had written and recorded quite a lot more than what made it into the video. If I get a chance I will probably upload the different sections in totality. There is almost one hour of content which did not make the cut. The same goes for the section of Ibn Sina. I briefly went over the sufi Ghazali situation just to emphasize on, what you mentioned as a matter of fact. Thanks for watching and commenting. Appreciated.

      Ibn sina himself wasn’t an Ismaili but his father was.
      he was a philosopher with his own views and he was a Hanafi in fiqh, and it’s known by him that he respect the first two caliphs.

      @@Al-Azdi I didn't mention two caliphs, and I didn't assert that Ibn Sina was Ismaili. However, he faced discrimination due to his father's publicly known affiliation with Ismaili. Perhaps he practiced taqiya. There are compelling reasons for this. From the start, he had more enemies, more vocal than his friends. Poets cursed him, theologians attempted to refute him, labeling him heretical. People branded him an infidel. Thirdly, Ibn Sina didn't modify anything in his work; his work contains nothing blasphemous.

      They had nothing to do with Itizal, as they where known proponents of Jabr(compulsion) and the eternity of beings besides Allah. They didnt believe in the promise and the threath nor the intermediate position. So there is no basis in categorizing them in Itizal. Also there is a book that we have in our hands today of the Mutazili imam Ibn Al Malahimi called " Tuḥfat al-mutakallimīn fī l-radd ʿalā l-falāsifa" , wherein he attacks the philosophers and Ibn Sina.

    I do consider this type of rhetorical in the meant time of conjecture regards to twists of Battle of Badr instead Battle of Uhud for angel descending. It is Islamophobic and the fact of which are found in the Hadith and saying of Prophet Muhammad (SAW), it is mockery.
    There’s no question as to where what Prophet Muhammad (SAW) has ordered and told in the hadith, it has no apologetic-able responses.
    So for example, mentioned ‘laughable’ regards to incident of war in battle of Badr and Uhud twistingly. By understandably, there’s double
    standard.
