1/12 This study argues that quranic dīn, islām, & ḥanīf are deeply connected to rituals of worship.
(inexact) TLDR: dīn: “worship” (not “religion”/“faith”);
islām: “monotheistic worship” (not “submission”);
ḥanīf: “worshiper through cultic rituals” (not “monotheist”/“gentile”).

The idea of "colonial lag" is stupid and needs to die. It's just not true that languages tend to develop more slowly or be less prone to change in colonies than in the metropole.

This is Mark Levin, a Fox News personality whose number one bestseller "American Marxism" is obscenely popular, with over 700k sold in its first three weeks--more than the next fifteen books on the NYT's list *combined.*

Crucial to his book's argument is "the Franklin School."
