Podcasts about Ibn Taymiyyah

- The first ashara of Muḥarram was observed peacefully, except in Muscat, Oman, where extremists attacked Shi‘a mourners, killing and wounding some on the eve of Āshūrā'. - In conflicts between right and wrong, truth is often the first casualty as the unjust party justifies its actions and demonizes victims. - Imam Ḥusayn (a) foresaw the tyrant Yazid's actions and, in a written statement, denied any ulterior motives, stating he rose not out of pride, insolence, or tyranny, but to seek reformation in his community. - The pattern of tyrants blaming victims continues today, exemplified by the Israeli PM's statements to the US Congress about the Gaza conflict, which Ruth Michaelson of the Guardian fact-checked: - Netanyahu's claim about aid trucks to Gaza was contradicted by UN data showing fewer trucks than he stated. - Netanyahu's assertion about civilian safeguarding measures was undermined by ongoing civilian casualties and displacements in Gaza, with the IDF's flyers and messages failing to prevent harm. - Israel dropped 75,000 tonnes of explosives on Gaza, a figure surpassing the bombs dropped on London during 1940-1941. - Historical cycles show that tyrants eventually face consequences, as promised in the Qur'an (Sūrah ash-Shu‘arā', 26:227). - Blaming the victim is not new, as seen in Karbala, with historical figures like Ibn Taymiyyah and Ibn al-‘Arabi denying Yazid's responsibility for Imam Ḥusayn's death. - Saudi Mufti Shk. ‘Abdul ‘Azīz Ãl ash-Shaykh stated that allegiance to Yazid was legitimate and criticized Imam Ḥusayn for withholding allegiance, though he asked for Allah's forgiveness for Husain's actions.

Liberalism places religion in a ‘non-reasoned' bucket, which should be tolerated like all other irrational but ultimately comforting lifestyle choices. This is primarily why there is general animus against anyone who displays an over-exuberance towards belief systems. Such people are described as fundamentalists, unthinking and unable to make their own rational choices. Our guest this week, Jamie Turner is no stranger to these arguments. He is currently pursuing his doctoral research at the University of Birmingham, looking at Ibn Taymiyyah and natural theology.As always, you can comment your thoughts below.Find us on:Twitter: https://twitter.com/thinking_muslimFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/The-Thinking-Muslim-Podcast-105790781361490Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thinkingmuslimpodcast/Telegram: https://t.me/thinkingmuslim Host: https://twitter.com/jalalaynWebsite Archive: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com#TheThinkingMuslimPodcastThe Thinking Muslim Podcast Episode 10900:00 Introduction02:11 The idea of fitra 04:47 Fitra from a cognitive pov05:19 Theistic disposition as natural12:25 Nature of theistic faculty 13:30 The Mu'tazilite view 14:43 The Hadith about fitra18:00 Role of environment 20:36 Our role as agents 22:05 The limits of fitra24:00 Role of revelation25:41 Convert vs. revert 28:42 Moral intuition 30:35 Journey to Islam 33:38 The role of reason 38:48 Obligation to use reason 45:33 Too much thinking?47:52 Learning to reason well 49:27 Studying philosophy 51:50 Fitra and moral judgements 53:42 Dawah 55:37 Evidence for God57:28 Signs in nature and humans 1:00:57 Responding to Stephen Fry Hosted on Acast.

The later part of Ibn Taymiyyah's life saw continued invasions from Mongol Hordes from the outside, and a battle against Sufi mystics in his own society. And for the man himself, it was defined by a continuation of one thing more than any other: a zeal against irreligion. While confronting the Mamluk Sultan and preaching anti-Mongol fatwas, he cemented himself as the great mediaeval scholar and warrior he is now remembered as. And he set an ideological precedent which modern Salafi jihadists continue to follow to this day. This week's episode of Conflicted sees us delve into the latter part of Ibn Taymiyyah's thrilling life to understand what it can tell us about the Middle East today, and how the ripples of his fundamentalist ideology continue to influence the thought of so many radical Muslims.

Ibn Taymiyyah is known as the “Sheikh of Islam” to his admirers, and to his detractors, one of the most significant antecedents of modern Salafi Jihadism. Simultaneously a genius scholar, brutal warrior and unflinching polemicist, he is one of the most important pioneers of a militant form of Sunni Islam, and is now quoted more than any other scholar by Islamist terrorists today. Continuing our series exploring the historical forebears of modern Salafi Jihadism, this week sees us begin two episodes on Ibn Taymiyyah, the great mediaeval Islamic scholar. We'll explore the world in which he grew up, with Mongol invasions constantly at the gates, alongside the many contradictions that defined his life and how he rose to prominence in the 13th century Middle East.

"What can my enemies do to me? I have in my breast both my heaven and my garden. If i travel they are with me, never leaving me. Imprisonment for me is a chance to be alone with my Lord. To be killed is martyrdom and to be exiled from my land is a spiritual journey...." Ibn Taymiyyah

According to a famous prophetic report, “Whoever imitates a people becomes one of them.” What does “imitation” here mean? Rather, what does this statement really mean at all, and how have Muslims historically understood it? How did this simple report become a doctrine in the Islamic tradition? What does this hadith mean for Muslims today, in an increasingly interreligious atmosphere and especially for those living in the West or in other non-Muslim-majority contexts? Finally, why do humans invest so much in being different and displaying their difference from those they declare as an ‘other'?  These and many other questions are answered in Youshaa Patel's exciting book The Muslim Difference: Defining the Line between Believers and Unbelievers from Early Islam to the Present, published in 2022 with Yale University Press. The book explores the issue of difference and frames the hadith as significant to Muslim interreligious encounters, showing that ideas and examples of imitation—and Muslims' understanding of the concept—have changed throughout times and in different contexts. And the debate around issues of religious difference, imitation, and Muslims' effort to distinguish themselves from non-Muslims tells us about how Muslims understand and define religion. In our conversation today, we discuss the origins of the book, some of its main arguments and findings, the prophetic reports on imitation—specifically the hadith that “whoever imitates a people becomes one of them”—its role in establishing a Sunni orthodoxy given that the hadith or the concept of tashabbuh is not found in Shii collections, and influential scholars and thinkers' development of the concept, individuals such as Ibn Taymiyyah and Najm al-Din al-Ghazzi. We also discuss examples of small differences that are not to be imitated, and Patel explains the significance and value of these small differences, which are quite powerful and symbolic. Our conversation ends with the relevance of imitation and emulation for today's Muslims, including Muhammad Abduh's Transvaal fatwa on, among other things, Muslims wearing European hats or Muslims doing Christian European things and how other Muslim scholars responded to this fatwa. Shehnaz Haqqani is an Assistant Professor of Religion at Mercer University. She earned her PhD in Islamic Studies with a focus on gender from the University of Texas at Austin in 2018. Her dissertation research explored questions of change and tradition, specifically in the context of gender and sexuality, in Islam. She can be reached at haqqani_s@mercer.edu.

Taqi-ad-Din Ahmad ibn Taymiyyah (January 22, 1263 - September 26, 1328), known simply Ibn Taymiyyah for short, was a medieval Sunni Muslim scholar, muhaddith, theologian, judge, jurisconsult, and logician who has been widely acknowledged as the mujaddid of the 7th century of the Islamic calendar.

We touch on this issue and talk about the following hadeeth: Abu Nadrah reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said during the middle of the day at the end of the pilgrimage, “O people, your Lord is one and your father Adam is one. There is no favor of an Arab over a foreigner, nor a foreigner over an Arab, and neither white/red skin over black skin, nor black skin over white/red skin, except by righteousness. Have I not delivered the message?” They said, “The Messenger of Allah has delivered the message.” Source: Musnad Aḥmad 22978 Grade: Sahih (authentic) according to Ibn Taymiyyah عَنْ أَبِي نَضْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي وَسَطِ أَيَّامِ التَّشْرِيقِ فَقَالَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ أَلَا إِنَّ رَبَّكُمْ وَاحِدٌ وَإِنَّ أَبَاكُمْ وَاحِدٌ أَلَا لَا فَضْلَ لِعَرَبِيٍّ عَلَى أَعْجَمِيٍّ وَلَا لِعَجَمِيٍّ عَلَى عَرَبِيٍّ وَلَا لِأَحْمَرَ عَلَى أَسْوَدَ وَلَا أَسْوَدَ عَلَى أَحْمَرَ إِلَّا بِالتَّقْوَى أَبَلَّغْتُ قَالُوا بَلَّغَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ 22978 مسند أحمد باقي مسند الأنصار --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-revert/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-revert/support
