Al-Razi's on the Univocity of Existence
An ordinary Eid at the Ishbīlī residence: Eyes glued to a book, Ibn Makwī (d.401H) walks out completely oblivious to his guest, who protests: "Seriously? It's Eid!" Taking his sweet time to finish the page, he says, "By God, I find pleasure in nothing but reading." #ReadMubarak
Describing the events of 29 Ramadan 571 AH, Ibn al-Athir writes that a solar eclipse occurred while he was studying math as a child. As the world darkened, "I became extremely frightened and held onto my teacher tightly, who strengthened my heart."
al-Raz's argument for the intuitiveness, undefinability, & primacy of existence and al-Tusi's objection on whether you can have intuitive understanding of propositional statement without the concepts/terms within it being intuitive
al-Taftazani, Sharh al-Maqasid
al-Shahrastani on "States" being additional to their existence of motions as a restult from human will & power. This helps differentiate specific voluntary & necessary motions without power & will affecting the existence of all things of motion
The problem with individuating (as opposed to distincting) non-existent objects
"Anti-essentialism, like relativism and skepticism, is never a real practice but is a form of performative self-contradiction whose very rejection of essences presupposes the very thing it claims to deny." @CKDagli "Metaphysical Institutions," 245
Islam as One Thing, Anything, or Nothing renovatio.zaytuna.edu/article/islam-… via @Renovatio This is an excerpt from my new book Metaphysical Institutions: Islam and the Modern Project (SUNY Press), from the chapter that deals with Hodgson, Asad, S. Ahmed, and Reinhart on “What is Islam?”
al-Ghazali sees gnosis (a profound, personal understanding of religious truths gained through experience) as the ultimate purpose of religion.
al-Dawwani's views on the role of a husband & wife and their duties
al-Tusi's Analogy of Existence distinguishes the existence of the necessary from contingent entities, while recognizing a general concept of existence that applies to both which adapts to the nature of the entity it describes, without being an inherent part of their essence
The characteristics of individuation among concrete objects
LONG thread on the so-called Adamic Exceptionalism model of human origins 🧵 (1/22) What is it? Is it true? Is it useful to Muslims? Read on to know.
Argument against distinct catagories extra-mentally
Al-Razi's argument on when non-existent being equal or more general than the negated

Sh. Umar as-Suhrawardi (d. 1234)’s letter to Fakhr ad-Din ar-Razi, commending him for being an upholder of Sunnah & champion of ‘ilm. This is significant from an emissary of the capable Abbasid Caliph an-Nasir, showing that Razi was indeed appreciated in the heartlands early on.
Brief thoughts, nationalism and its relationship to religion: Hegel, in this passage, expresses Germanic nationalist concerns in some sense against Christianity, as a 'foreign' religion that "felled Valhalla", uprooting and banishing the previous Norse traditions as heathenism
Pleased to announce that I've accepted a PhD offer from @UChicagoHum, Dept of Near Eastern Languages & Civilizations (NELC). Looking forward to incorporating both of my masters degrees in Law and Divinity to further explore dimensions of Islamic law through theories of religion.
And I wasn’t making the ta’weel up. I was repeating the ta’weel of Imam Malik who interprets the Hadith to mean: “His mercy descends and angels descend” as reported by Imam Nawawi in his sharh of Sahih Muslim under the sharh of the hadith. The salaf DID ta’weel. Get over it.
I am a strict tafweed guy. For me I have a rule taken from hanbali scholars: “we don’t translate the mutashabihaat to even Arabic, let alone in any other language.” But when my siblings ask regarding: “Allah coming down to the first heaven every third of the night” and say (1/4)
It has been related of the Prophet, peace and blessings upon him, that he said: “The worst of you is he who eats alone and does not let others share his food.”
al-Maqrīzī: "Then 576 AH commenced as yet another uneventful year: - The sultan returns safely from war - We mourn the loss of a great shaykh - An emir or two die - A woman gives birth to a crow And for today's forecast, the river Nile rises several meters..."
@Ameenkun @KhalilAndani Fantastic thanks for the texts.
@KhalilAndani @Ameenkun Agree with this, but before you even get to the theological implications you have to deal with paradoxes arising from modeling existence as a genus. Avicenna is well aware of this which is why he says existence divides into modes, not into species.
Wow! An ijaza in the 7 qiraat with all the chains of transmission of each qari. Circa 1200 AH.
The Prophet said, ‘Islam is marked to be A stranger in this world.’
Excited to share a new project that I'm working on: usul.ai Usul brings the latest advances in AI into Islamic research, giving the ability to query and search entire book collections or eras. The product is free and open-source.
A note on the Mashsha'i middle way between the extremes of empiricism and rationalism 🧵 On the Avicennian account, all knowledge - the immediate and the inferential - is proximately acquired from a non-divine, immaterial entity beyond the human mind.

The Salaf vs. “Salafīs” al-Shāfi‘ī and Ahmad: Reading Qur’ān next to graves is allowed Ibn Bāz and Ibn ‘Uthaymīn: It's Harām and a Bid‘ah that the Salaf never did
FYI. Abu Hamad al-Ghazali was also takfired and his books banned by some. The fact of being "takfired" often does little to curtail one's influence.
Honestly speaking, the schools closest to the Mutazilites are the Zaydis and the Samarqandi Maturidis. Zaydis and Mutazilites generally hold the same line of argumentation. The Samarqandi Maturidis disagree with Mutazilites on very few issues.

As the Commentator points out in the Kashf, the issue with these pious folk is that they tend to mix up a condition for knowledge with the source of it. Spiritual purity, like good bodily health, is at best a material aid to doing nazar well.
ON WHY NON-MUSLIMS CANNOT SEE ISLAM Hasan Spiker 25/2/2024 Those who baulk at the rigour and majesty, the jalāl that sometimes radiates from the Muslim, deeming this antithetical to the pacifist, meek conceptions of spiritual realization that are part of the broad Christian…
Imam Maalik: “It is not fitting for the scholars to speak of knowledge in the presence of those who do not appreciate it, as it would be a humiliation and disrespect to knowledge” -I remind this to my nafs when I’m reading books of the scholars.
