Islamofobi och demokratiska rättigheter

Islamofobi och demokratiska rättigheter. Islamofobin sprider sej i Sverige. Med islamofobi menar man rädsla för eller aggressivitet mot människor som har Islam som sin religion. Man kan också mena rädsla för eller aggressivitet mot själva religionen. Själv är jag socialist och dessutom ateist. Hur ser jag då på religion. Ibland har jag fått frågan hur jag ser på kristendomen. Mitt svar blir då en…

yeah for them i guess id go it's like the trinity. mysterium tremendum and all that.

Philosophically which fusion Ultras represent an entirely new entity to you and how is that line defined

cina i wish you could understand how much psychic damage this ask inflicted on me by giving me flashbacks to fucked up thought experiments i had to cover in philosophy of personhood and identity.

it depends how you're defining entity. in aristotelian terms, all fusion ultras are new substances--some more strongly bonded than others, but even fusions like reiga only have the composite ultras virtually (technical aristotelian term) present in them.

to me, as long as the original ultras retain their identity, the new ultra isnt a new person, but is a new entity. any more than an ultra/host relationship is a new person--it's just two persons coexisting in the same substantial form.

although i do kinda feel like legend is his own guy tbqh

Zadakiel, Archangel of Jupiter ♃ Talon Abraxas

Zadkiel, the Archangel of Jupiter, is one you may not have heard of before. Unlike Michael or Gabriel, his images don't often adorn the walls of art museums or stained glass windows. But among all the Planetary Angels, his name gives the most suggestive evidence that there's a long tradition linking angels and planets.

In Hebrew, the name for the planet Jupiter is "Zedek," which translates as "righteousness." Righteousness conveys the sense that one has been "justified by God" -- something that has integrity, is true, or in alignment with the cosmic pattern. One who is righteous can see clearly, and is therefore able to act with justice and mercy, as well as to reveal the truth or prophesy. These happen to be some of the oldest associations with the astrological Jupiter.

Angel names often end with the suffix -el, which simply means "of God." There's a tradition of appending -el to other terms to signify the angel associated with the word. Consequently, in Hebrew the angel of righteousness, or the angel of Jupiter, would be called "Zedek-iel"

Zedekiel, or Zadkiel, or one of its various spellings, is found mentioned in some of the earliest references to angels. The earliest Christian compilation of the seven archangels, written in the 5th Century by Pseudo-Dionysius in his Celestial Hierarchy, incudes Zadkiel among their number, as does Pope Gregory's list from the 6th century (spelled either Sachiel or Zachariel.) In his 12th-century writings, the great Spanish-Arabic scholar and scientist Averroës (Ibn Rushd) named Zadkiel/Sachiel the archangel of Jupiter, a tradition that was copied by authors in later Medieval and Renaissance magic and angelology.

As an angel of mercy, some Talmudic texts claim that Zadkiel is the unnamed angel who stays Abraham's hand, preventing him from sacrificing his son Issaac. (Because of this Zadkiel is sometimes shown holding a dagger.)

Given his association with Jupiter, it's not uncommon for New Age authors to associate Sachiel with rituals of abundance and prosperity. The modern astrological sense of Jupiter is a bit like the planetary Santa Claus, the jolly generous giver of gifts. That's not too far off, if you remember that Santa "knows when you are naughty or nice," and gave gifts accordingly.

The Archangel Zadkiel brings abundance and prosperity when we are acting with justice, fairness, and generosity ourselves. He teaches that when we are in right relationship with the cosmic order, our needs will be met. Or, if we have a need or a lack, as the Archangel of mercy, Zadkiel will aid in our efforts to obtain what we seek when we ask for his assistance. Zadkiel also brings us luck, when we are doing our best, and forgiveness, when we've fallen short of the mark, in order to start again.

As the Archangel of Jupiter, an auspicious time to make request to aid from Zadkiel is Thursday, Jupiter's day.

[transmutationisms]

Far more threatening to the West’s traditional order were the arrival in the early twelfth century of Arabic astrology, which many saw as a threat to Christian ideals of free will, and the Muslims’ rendering of Aristotelian physics and cosmology that accompanied it. It had been one thing for the Western elite to marvel at the practical uses of the Muslims’ astrolabe, algorism, and related technologies, for none of them required a radical rethinking of Christendom’s dominant worldview—at least not at the relatively low level at which Europe’s early adopters first approached them. And church authorities had already adopted Aristotle’s methods of logical argumentation, the dialectic, because they were keen to use it to establish the truth of Christian revelation in their battle against heresy.5 But all that began to change with the introduction of the Arab Aristotelians’ natural philosophy. Here was an underlying metaphysics, a science of “being as being,” that addressed many of the same questions, albeit in a very different way, as the traditional readings of revelation. It presented medieval Christendom with a competing “theory of everything” that could not be either digested and assimilated painlessly, on the one hand, or ignored outright, on the other. Albumazar’s ninth-century Introduction to Astrology, the full text of which appeared in Latin in 1133 and again in 1140, provided the West with the first major pathway into the Aristotelian tradition in natural science. Adelard of Bath had some two decades earlier translated Albumazar’s own abridged version, the Lesser Introduction to Astrology. This early translation, essentially a practical handbook, helped ignite an appetite in the West for Arabic astrology and other occult practices, but it omitted the Aristotelian framework that made the full Introduction to Astrology such a powerful text. And it was this Arab-influenced apprehension of Aristotle rather than any immediate direct access to his natural philosophy that prompted the church to ban his teachings at the university of Paris, then the premier center of Christian theology, in 1210 to 1215 (Lemay 1958:xxvii). The initial crisis at Paris induced by the Aristotle of the Muslim astrologers was soon followed by the appearance around 1230 of Michael Scot’s translations of the great commentaries on Aristotle’s metaphysics and natural science by the Muslim philosopher and jurist Ibn Rushd, known to the Latins as Averroës. Averroës’s works provided Europe with some of its first access to an authentic Aristotle, freed of earlier entanglements with the occult. Yet this presentation posed an even greater challenge to the West, for it forced Christendom to reexamine critically many of its most closely held beliefs—on creation, on the nature of God, and on humanity’s place in the universe. Here, then, lie the origins and driving forces of the second phase—after the initial flurry of translations in Spain, Sicily, and the near East—of the Western encounter with the Islamic intellectual tradition, that of assimilation and, more accurately, of expropriation of Arabic science and philosophy. This phase required an intensive effort to “Christianize” Aristotle, already champion of the church’s dialectic, and to make his powerful natural philosophy and metaphysics safe for Western consumption (Lemay 1958:xxiii; Bullough 1996:46–47). And this effort meant, in effect, a campaign of intellectual “ethnic cleansing” that would attempt to strip out any traces of Muslim influence—now seen as a corruption of the original text—and to bequeath an acceptable version of Aristotle to his legitimate heirs in the Latin West. Over time, the vital contributions of the Muslim philosophers were pushed so far to the margins of Western intellectual history as to become almost invisible. A similar pattern would soon be repeated in other fields, including mathematics, medicine, and even literature. Each time, the anti-Islam discourse would provide the rules of procedure and the intellectual mechanism for this willful act of forgetting.

🚨 In a preliminary toll, two martyrs and 20 wounded were recovered after the IOF bombed a mosque filled with displaced people in front of Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Hospital in Deir Al-Balah, central #Gaza Strip. It is one of over 815 mosques bombed by the IOF in the Gaza Strip in the last year. The strike coincided with a bombing of Ibn Rushd School in Zuweida, which also houses displaced people.

just found out that ibn rushd (12th century muslim philosopher) wrote a rebuttal to al-ghazali's famous work the incoherence of the philosophers called the incoherence of the incoherence.... iconic

[the-lovers-ailment]

Ibn Rushd once gave a speech wearing normal clothing, but nobody paid any attention. They all ignored him.

Someone who knew him told him to wear a religious robe, so he did - and a crowd gathered to listen to him, they began to view him as a knowledgable scholar.

He is reported to have then said:

```“Knowledge used to be in the hearts, now it’s in the clothes!”```

💎 If the Husband gives a Gift to One of his Wives Must he Also Give to the Others?

Imām Ahmad said concerning a man who has two wives: "He may show preferences for one over the other in spending, intercourse, and clothing, if the other has what is sufficient for her. He may buy for one a better garment than he does for the other if she has what suffices her."

Ibn Qudāmah commented: "This is because equality in all of this would be difficult. If it were obligatory then it would not be possible to do it except with difficulty. Therefore, the obligation of it is removed, similar to equality between them in intercourse."

Al-Mughnī 8/144

_______

Ibn Rushd Al-Mālikī said:

"The Madh'hab of Mālik and his companions is that if he (the husband) establishes for each of them that which is obligatory for her in accordance with her condition then there is no harm upon him for favoring who he wills with what he wills."

Balaghah As-Sālik 1/437

Translated by Raha Batts

[bogusfilth]

it would be easy to say that the absence of al-farabi and ibn rushd from intro philosophy default curricula is because of orientalism but none of the christian scholastics make it in either so maybe academic philosophers are just stupid. the rationalists are all still christian apologetics so why the fuck not also read aquinas. skipping literally 1400 years of incredibly fruitful intellectual development is totally whacked out and absolutely unjustifiable feature of the "oops, I guess the next guy after aristotle is descartes" tendency.
