    Hasan spiker has so much to offer towards islamic education in conversation with modernism and western philosophy in general, wish to to see him more. On a side note I've been recently reading about the fren*h revolution and the connections between islam and Muslims and the aftermath of the Haitian revolution led by Muslim black slaves, i think it would be an interesting history to explore in this channel in the future perhaps regardless keep up the good work and looking forward for your Cambridge talk!

    Only half way through, but could one argue that hierarchy today is not entirely abolished and exists in the form of economic value. Or perhaps in a utilitarian sense in the maximizing of pleasure for the greatest number of people such that entertainers are richly rewarded by society whilst care workers can barely expect to survive.

It is one thing to recognise and being imposed by the right objective struture on the mind that is capable of reciving them (while having no prior concept or not) and it is another thing to say tabula rasa lead to voluntarism.

    As a Muslim who grew up in a western, non Islamic environment, it is not hard to see that hierarchy as understood and and antagonised by liberal thought, is not the natural and therefore Divine hierarchy of creation, but the man made hierarchy of oppressive institutions both secular and religious, that have nothing of natural, let alone Divine, about them.
    We should always be aware of the context in which certain thoughts are developed, in order to understand and criticize them: saying "that is not what hierarchy means" would not help if that is what hierarchy (or any other concept) is understood to mean in a given context.

    There is a beautiful couplet by Mirza Bedil on beauty which on the one hand asserts that beauty is objective, and someone may have have been preferentially endowed with it but then moral principle is the true locus of truth.
    از حسن فرنگ، اینقدرم شد معلوم
    کاین دوزخیان، بهشت دیگر دارند
    (From the beauty of white people one thing is inferred
    they are hell bound while paradise is for some others)
    Here whiteness is invoked in sense of them not being mumineen (faithful).
    the suspension of the idea of beauty and good seems to be as consequence of the idea of toleration.

      Paul will not bring someone to propagate ignorant hate against sufism. He discussed the atter already and brought a guest that discussed the issue : we all know that some pseudo sufis are misguided but just because a minority of Sufis are misguided that does not delegitimize sufism as an islamic science. All of our great ulama were sufis including Ibn Taymiyya and Al Ghazali. Only modernist reformist type salafis hate on sufism and want to exclude sufism from islam. That is ignorant and wrong.

      A beautiful concept of sufism misrepresented and misunderstood due to ignorance. Just like enemies of Islam misrepresent Islam and Muslims .
      Sum-mum bonum of sufism is
      Love God and love people for the love of God .
      Regarding visiting of grave of sufi Sheikhs or leaders : yes they do , nothing wrong with it , there are associated Masjids that prayers are done there . Most do not ask to the dead sheikh , they pray and ask God .
      Muslims also visit the grave in Madina in millions and they pray to God not to the contents of grave . Some do in both places unfortunately .

      It's man's responsibility to obey and submit to the will of God. And in return God will reward the obedient ones with His mercy, love and eternal paradise in hereafter.
