Oddbean new post about login | logout #Islam is simple: Muhammad (may God mention him among the angels and grant him peace, 'SAW') is the walking example of the Qur'an, the uncreated word of God, and Muhammad's (SAW) companions, their followers and the followers-followers (the first three generations) are the only valid example of how #Muslims today are to follow the example of Prophet (SAW) and so the Qur'an. As a layperson i cannot recall even one incident in the first three generations when they decided to start slaughtering civilians even in retaliation. But that kind of thinking is prevalent today because of Western influence, such as during WWII every #British citizen was an enemy of every #German citizen. And the kind of 'they did it to us so we'll do it to them' mentality displayed here: https://odysee.com/@richardmedhurst:3/binladen-letter:e People are *not* a means to an end but an end in themselves ~ Immanuel #Kant nostr:note1urrnxp6day6wtqrh49tqa5cgjlg7xlr2v2j039el7eh454fp2hns8w9g2d
It starts to get silly. The #childrenofDarkness oppressing the good people of #Palestine become a blueprint for everywhere and any where, which is not the case: https://odysee.com/@richardmedhurst:3/Stanley-Settlers:c I've also heard that, because of a #fatwa by #ShaikhulIslam Ibn Taymiyyah (i believe) concerning the #Mongols using #Muslim human shields to overtake fortifications. The fatwa said Muslim defenders should aim at the Mongols and if the arrow strays and hits the Muslim captive, it wasn't the archer's fault.This today has turned into, "you can kill Muslims". Again, #Kant: people are *not* a means to an end, but an end in themselves. nostr:note10nspdtl6cm90vm9qr27dnzhgv09d9yjxgqf0rnqwygez6luqv5dqke6uew
The 'Sahabi' is a companion of the Prophet (SAW) and the 'tabi`ee' is a follower => nostr:nevent1qqsydm6dta49srv86q2s5k0c0098xhrsljnlsre9e6ygrdxf5qj7aggpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqzypfqafahw4r9dwfsd5qumf5xj9nw4tej836rcavcsn4ndu0z6f535qcyqqqqqqgrzcln9 nostr:nevent1qqs8ecqk4lavdjhkdjsp40xe3t5x8jkjjfryqyh3es8zyv3d07qx2xspp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqzypfqafahw4r9dwfsd5qumf5xj9nw4tej836rcavcsn4ndu0z6f535qcyqqqqqqg4n3kez
