The vulnerability of your Aqeeda isn't limited to external attacks but also extends to the internal struggles of your own mind. Great video. Will the remaining lectures be uploaded?
Throughout his works, Imām al-Ghazālī widely utilizes the account of the tripartite soul from traditions of philosophical ethics going back to Plato in Book IV of the Republic
Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh ya Shaykh. Was Shaykh Abdul Bari Farangi Mahali against Deobandism? I wonder if you know Imam Ahmad Rida Khan قدس الله سره. He studied the works of Shaykh al-Akbar Ibn Arabi قدس الله سره. JazakAllah Kharian Sidi
Wa alaykum as-salam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh. I'm not in a position to know if he was "against", but do see footnote 38 on page 172 on Things As They Are. Yes, I do know of Imam Ahmad Rida Khan, quddisa sirruhu. Another great Akbarian of the time was Pir Meher Ali Shah, qaddasallahu sirrahu. All of the significant Farangi Mahal scholars were also Akbarians.
@@AspiringServant65 Read Francis Robinson's thought for the history (he doesn't get into the philosophy) of Farangi Mahal, and read Baḥr al-ʿUlūm's commentary on al-Bihārī's Sullam al-ʿUlūm to get an idea of the mashrab.
Salam dear Shaykh, One objection I have seen to the utility of Akbarian metaphysics in resolving the intellectual issues of today is that it depends on a source of knowledge which is largely inaccessible to most people, i.e kashf. If someone is not mukashaf, they must resort to making taqlid of Ahl al-Kashf in order to follow them in their conclusions, or they must resort to sufficing with the conclusions that come about through ordinary rational thought. If that is the case, how does the study of Akbarian metaphysics actually help? If they are making taqlid, then it does not provide them with certainty, and if they resort to ordinary rational thought, they are back where they began. I would be honoured by your clarifying this issue for me or pointing me to where I should look. Barak Allah fikum.
The end of the video was so good 👌

Could you explain what you said about Elghazali?

I never knew something about Farangi Mahali scholars. I will check them. Where do I find them? Barakallahu Feek ya Shaykh

I didn't know Imam Abdul Ali Laknawi wrote it. I know him because he was huge scholar
