Excerpt from seminar of April 29, 2023. The purpose of this excerpt is to convey that the term 'nominalism' is widely misunderstood. (for more on this from a different perspective, see Pasnau, Metaphysical Themes, 83-88). The historical 'nominalists', including Ockham, did not deny the distinct intelligibility of the world; rather, following Aristotle, they believed in (immanent) forms. The rea...

Salam Sidi. Can you please inform me about the basic prerequisites to this playlist?
Just a small reminder that Platonism, Aristotelianism, and Neoplatonism are all polytheistic at the core. In Platonism, the One is not an Individual, it is the principle that states that each thing that exists must be one. That is to say, each thing must be a unit or unity of parts, with an analysis of the parts eventually reducing down to the barest units. This definition does not make the One a deity, it makes it the principle by which we grasp individuation as such. This principle is not causal as is pointed out numerous times in the Platonic and Neoplatonic texts except in the way that unity is the supreme good for each thing that exists. As the One is not causal, it does not determine the number of Gods, or units. So there is no way to limit Platonism or Neoplatonism down in such a way as to apply them to monotheism.
May Allah reward you beyond measure shiekh
You are wealth of knowledge. These are hard topics and sound is not good. I am investing time but not getting anything out.
it's amazing how someone can be so consumed by its own fantasy of knowledge, i' m so sorry for you
why are you filled with hatred?
Can you go into the deep metaphysical literature of thinkers like farid ad din attar, rumi, and also other sources like hallaj, abu yazid bestami, al muhasebi, shebli?
Salam sheikh Hasan, will you continue to do two mullah podcasts or self podcasts?
Islam is not the system of deep philosophical thinking. Analytic philosophy is absolutely incompatible with Islam. Islam is full of concepts like for example: "If your heart desires to do a certain act, and your master's order is against it, you should carry out that order. If something seems good to you, but if your master says it is bad, you must accept it as bad. And if something else seems bad but your master says it is good, then you must accept it as good. If you think a certain action will be harmful, but your master says it must be done, then done it must indeed be, even though it may entail you in loss of life or property. Similarly, if you expect to benefit from a certain action, but your master forbids it, you must refrain from it even though it might have brought all the worldly treasures. Indeed, the noblest among you in the sight of God is the most God fearing of you".- al-Hujurat 49:13
beautiful recitation ❤
Assalamu 'Alaykum Shaykh, is this a public course or a selective course (since there is a selection in order to access the live sessions but they are also uploaded on youtube) ?
I believe you're unfair in your representation of Ibn Sina Shaykh
How can one contact the sheikh
Well said Shaykh! The problems with the way the Din is widely taught and understood today is so sad that I don’t know whether to laugh or cry
The thumbnail has Bakhit Muti’i. Did he contribute to intellectual decline and if yes, how? Shukran
My goodness this could be in dog language and it would make no difference in comprehending what’s being said
Salaamualaikum Shaykhna. Long time, no speak. I pray you are well. I wanted to ask, if the Sanusian approach to theology is considered insufficient in a contemporary context, given its inadequacy to address the skepticism of modern/contemporary philosophy, what would be the solution or alternative methodology that would comprehensively address this?
Until Shaykh Hasan sees, I suppose his answer would heavily be exposited in his "Things as They are: Nafs al-Amr and the Metaphysical Foundations of Objective Truth" book (the one being read from in the video). Check out the introduction at least, I found fairly orienting. I think the answer to your question is would be summarised in footnote 146 on page 194.
This course is a very complete course indeed
Assalamualykum Shaykh, are there plans to upload the seminars 5-22 and seminars 30-33? JazakAllah khair
Yes.
Wa alaykum as-salam !
♥️
Debate jay dyer please
A beautiful podcast and insights/ilm. The Shaykhs are a treasure and so needed in these modern times. HOWEVER, I'm not really seeing why people feel the need to call Shaykh Hamza out. Shaykh Hamza spoke publicly on Gaza four times at least since 10/7 * His Zaytuna talk soon after 10/7 * His public discussion with Chris Hedges on the history and current Palestinian situation a few weeks ago (when reviewing Khalidi's Palestinian book) * His signed Zaytuna letter soon thereafter * His RIS talk (and not including his numerous talks over the years weren't speaking out on the Palestinian cause). I guess some people want some quota of how many times equals enough to prove someone supports and speaks out. Does it have to be weekly, daily?
Why do people insist on throwing terms from other languages into a discussion thats taking place in another language. Its not helpful
Is it not plausible that Ibn Arabi came across the works of Plato/Plotinus and re-imagined those ideas into something of his own making upon contemplation (of the Quran and select hadith) and his worldly and "other-worldly" experiences? If yes, one can say those works were a potential catalyst in his thought process or helped him in his expression of his own ideas (if they were not the initial catalyst) and thus may have been "influenced" to a certain degree. That degree of influence was obviously not 100% as if it was, he would be a Neoplatonist. Let's assume he was "influenced" by the works of Plato/Plotinus. Why is this a problem given it's plausible for people anywhere in the world or universe a Nabi did not reach (if you think Plato/Plotinus are not coming from a Nabi "tradition") in a given space/time to come to similar ideas through there own rational processes and worldly/"other-worldly" experiences/observations - vis-a-vis the Ibrahim A.S. process (Ibn Tufayl)?
i have fallen deeper in love with Allah wa Rasulullah ﷺ deeper with these two Shaykhs. jazakallah khair and may Allah increase you both.
Jazakallah Khair Shaykh. The explanation for Intuition being self-evident was an absolutely amazing explanation.
is this channel belongs to a student of sidi hasan?
It is such a blessing to hear you both drop gems like this. Know that many appreciate what you do silently. Looking forward to hearing more from you.
Jazakallah Khair Shaykh. Thank you for this very important lecture.
Jazakallah Khair for the Shaykh. Allah preserve you and bless us from your ilm and hilm.
Jazakallah Khairan Shaykh for this beautiful discourse.
Nice video! If i may ask, what is the neccesity of al ayan al tabitha as "images" Of divine names? Why are they not the same?
Jazakallah Khair for the upload Shaykh.
Fascinating!
What order should we watch this course in?

Can you please upload all the parts of this course series into a single ordered playlist if possible?

Was Ibni Arabi influenced by Plato? This is the question. But the arguments of Hasan Spiker are quite demagogic and linear logic. If you deny this statement, you have Ashari attributes. This is dogmatic argument. To tackle the question we need to look at what really Ibni Arabi is. And unlike other scholars, Ibni Arabi help us understand this with his crystal clear statements. In Futuhat he puts people in 3 categories; the awam, the normal people, layman; the hawas, in which he puts fukaha, mutakallimun, philosophers, etc...and the last and highest level is for hawasul hawas, what he defines as Muhakkiq Sufis, people such as Bayazidi Bastami, Jouneydi Baghadi, Hakimi Tirmizi, etc. And definitely Ibni Arabi puts himself in this category. Now to expect Jounaydi Bahgdadi, or Ibni Arabi to be influenced by Plato or other Philosophers is really absurd..Its not understanding Ibni Arabi.
To equate Ibni Arabi with neo platonics, or claiming Ibni Arabi was somehow influenced from them actually is not understanding Ibni Arabi..This is a common statement by some Orientalists, or even people like Abu Al-Ala Afifi but it is misconception. A figure like Ibnul Arabi who represents "ilm al Khasf, who himself claims that for him writing has been like giving birth of Devine illuminations, invoking influence from Plato or Plotinus is problematic. Imagine a person, who himself is saying that it took him only 11 days to write his book called Mevakiun Nucum, a book of 300 pages...he wrote his al Edbiratul ilahiyye in 4 days, Et Tenezzulatul Mevsiliyye in few days..el Jalal ve'l Jamal in only 1 day..We have to understand we are not talking about a normal scholar or philosopher that builds his scholarship through reading and lecures...Just let us remember his reply to Ibni Rush, the Yes and No..his explanation about NO tells you the difference. On other side, Ibni Arabi in various occasions alludes to some concepts or notions brought forward by some Muslims or Greek Philosophers...but often the purpose of that was to clarify things, to put things to the right order in metaphysical sense. There is no possibility for him to be influenced by Philosophers. Not because a muslim scholar cannot or should not be under the influence of non Muslims but because the type of "ilim" Ibni Arabi represents. This is the point which is most complicated part to understand for moderns like us.
Let's also remember that in Futuhat, Ibni Arabi also suggest for those who truly want to understand him that they should not try to approach him through the notions of the Philosophers.
