@bayyinahinst I'm more concerned how it is possible that the Jinn were so familiar to the people back then (see also Sulayman and his army) while if we were to saw one now, we will go to an 'existential' crisis?

NIETS NIEUWS ONDER DE ZON IN ISRAËL ⬇️

Een documentaire uit 1989 over Gaza bracht ontvoering en gevangenneming van Palestijnen door Israël aan het licht, velen waren kinderen. Israël gebruikt dezelfde tactieken van foltering en gevangenneming nog steeds.

@dmontetheno1 I know, I was focusing on the principle using the 1% consensus that we should not take 'islamic' rulings as written on stone.

[AbeR @AbbasR87]

@dmontetheno1 The verse in particular is refering to "halal and haram" rulings which are only a handful of verses explicitly revealed by God. Nowadays we have "halal-haram" rulings that are covering almost our daily lives and habits. How much of them is directly revealed by God?

[AbeR @AbbasR87]

@PhDniX @threadreaderapp Are there people existing today who still recite the verse with the addition? Then it would suggests the text is/was conveyed orally as well, regardless the uthmanic text...

@DrewCohenMoney @Speedwell_LLC Perhaps they are reinventing ADBE?

[AbeR @AbbasR87]

@BeuvingJordy This suggests that ADBE is still a real threat for AI while there is the opposite sentiment....

“Community” has to be about more than leisure, writes @EsmeLKPartridge. We have to be genuinely important to each other

As a result, Nisbet says, communities may still exist, but ‘have become functionally irrelevant to our state and economy and meaningless to the moral aspirations of individuals’

[Esmé Partridge @EsmeLKPartridge]

But as economic production moved away from the extended family and the guild, and the welfare state displaced the role of local charities and voluntary associations, power became externalised and effectively removed from civil society

[Esmé Partridge @EsmeLKPartridge]

In 1953, Robert Nisbet argued that the reason we feel a crisis of belonging is because local communities no longer hold real political or economic power. Once, they were involved in essential problem-solving and decision-making - making individuals feel truly part of something

A pretty interesting passage found by Sean Anthony given how it resembles some Islamic discourse.

@TabarrujEnjoyer What?

[AbeR @AbbasR87]

@chonkshonk1 I did a check on https://t.co/ALWUCvsUNi and apparently there are a plethora of narrations where the prophet explicitly commanded the 5 prayers besides these two legendary scenarios mentioned here in the text

[AbeR @AbbasR87]

@chonkshonk1 Lastly I was really asking myself why am I always exactly praying 5 times while only a few does the job to really connect with my Lord and the rest feel surplus while performing them only artificially because I have to meet the "magic" number...

@BrianFeroldi Any names for that social venture capital? Love to know about them!
