@@Tacit_Tern We definitely want to make videos more frequently and we are exploring ways to do that such as potentially including some 'on-camera' sections. However, Ahmad (the writer/narrator) and I (the editor/producer) value the quality of our videos. We aren't funded by any large organisation nor do we have a team of animators helping us. We are just two graduate students trying to make high quality videos as a hobby. The second we have the finances to potentially hire another animator, you should expect videos more frequently. The Ibn Rushd video should release before the end of the year. We are very close to finished. Since it is summer here in Australia, we hope to get another video done before the end of the holidays (its on a surprise topic that we hope you guys will find interesting). Beyond that, we will continue working on our philosophy videos and exploring ways to make videos faster without damaging the quality of our videos :)

​@@Tacit_Tern Experience Meaningless: Experience and prejudice. To accept sight and illusion in the same relativity and not be a slave. Slavery: To be free from the growth of intellect. Experience free from understanding and memory as triviality. Memory: reduced down to recollection without review, in a universe of consistent physics; a triviality of organic invincibility. Experience rendered down to self-sensual recall without existential considerations; meaningless. Prejudice: to accept the delusion that no human can consider and choose. For experience to outweigh sense and sensible prudence and suggest in definite physicality that humanity is as inorganic as the constructs we purpose. Triviality to the concept of Slave, is Mass to Gravity, either one hypothetical without the physics of Trivialization or Mass. One requiring the circumstance of genesis, the other requiring absence of necessity; Nativitus Ancillae. Relativity: the universe revolves around you, but only if you watch with others; relativity born of tripartite geometry; self (observing), other (conferring), objective (occurring): co-intimate experience and co-context. Relativity: all things can happen to you, most didn't, you only know what you think, you only think what you can hypothesize, all understanding revolves around perception and interaction. Understanding and position; relative. Hypothesis: a proposition of a form unsensed in the physical, in the definition "scientific" it is the Fructus Ventris Physica Quantitatis; the guessable, potent in measurability, invisibilia ad carnalis, observationis codificationem. Hypothesis: a concept just beyond sensible observation but within sensory or facultative relativity to intimate comprehension; the space an observer feels safe to coniectura didicit doctrina. A cerebrum exercitium. Meaningless: the words of any personal exposition without the person. Interpretation of intended and intimate communication removed from its physical occurrence. To hypothesize in the spirit of Freud, all are I. Meaningless: a description of a building behind it's façade to a man on the street. Definition without sensible example; invisibility bestowed by the suggestibility of the potent potentiality of descriptionem alienum. Reference without experience, definition without context, experience without definition, definition without reference; to theorize on fancy, the possibilities of cause bereft of "scientific" prejudice towards provable. A description of the unseen to the comfortable in sense, and sensibility; hypothesis delivered socially by the perfecte mediocris to their perfecte mediocris aetatis. Interest and applause humilis, the sermo aequalis. Contemporary communication, external warehouse for internal deliberation. Deliberatio externa by contrast is built on extra-contemporary, the functional in sense and nerve unwilling to mal-hypothesize popularis prudentia. By definition a contemporary is both naturally occurring and actively intersecting, or it is a generational (illusory), built of temporal coincidence. Meaningless in contemporations intimate, capable of saying they share an age. The addict kind Lonliness is a myth spread by the ill, unwelled by popular delusion (self accepted). The sickly, pulsing out their (self) comforting radiance, the marking of a predators territory. A light to shine on all slow enough to not revile it for it's false and reason less eviction of self from capability. The prey; uninitiated youth, vulnerable innocence. Argue not with the aged (or experienced) self-convinced. The miracle of emotional conformation of physical fact convincing to the unknowing, under steady application, overly sweetened (for the self) ideals of pleasure and comfort, the prey forget they knew a peace that didn't requiring feeding or explanation. The virtue of falsely buoyed stability grinding the ignorant, young, and uncatered, all taken in by the sin of kindness as apex. To gift the sickness that tells a human "human emotion in the negative is unnecessary and beyond comprehension or tolerance". To know that there are those in the world of humanity, who in their generationally refined adherence to parasite coddling, will continue to teach the youth "drugs are a healthy and functional right of aware and intelligent people" is a mark of shame in this age of our collective development. The truth of human being betrayed by the proposed necessity of stimulation beyond the natural state, it's supposed normality vouchsafed; sobriety (health) ignored as a greater insanity than parasitism. Salve the wounded pride of the vulgar addict, crucify the outspoken advocate of reassessment. This is not a statement of conflict, rather a portrait of the true and natural order in it's biased equality (comfort belonging to those who crave it most). Exogeny In an era of fear, humanity is tested. The exodus of existential loneliness is a heavy burden. Self-indulgent contemporary values, the pitiful death of the faithful gregarious martyr. Silenced in the passion of virtue, in the fury of desire as necessity, the ideal dies for the joy of man as the ideal devotee of nothing. Endogenous evidence of exogenous truth, derived from noble prejudiced purposes, refutes the pathologies of nature as the folly of prosaic and sensible sustainability. Euphoria at any cost, at any cost.

Al-Ghazali "Attend, for it is incumbent upon thee to discern that man, indeed, is counted among the existents, yet he is not of the eternal existents, for his existence hath a cause. Were he to have been eternal, then his existence would be divorced from causality. However, his essence is eternal in the future, not in the past, for he shall endure for eternity, and the annulment of his existence is inconceivable, and that which is imperative is eternal. Nevertheless, his existence is contingent upon another, not upon himself; verily, his essence is eternal in the future through another. Thus, he dwells betwixt eternity and contingency, yet his perpetual existence is bestowed through benevolence and munificence, and not by virtue of his intrinsic essence." "Reflect upon the nature of existence, and thou shalt discern that it is a tapestry woven with threads of causality and contingency. For every entity hath its origin in a cause, yet the chain of causality must necessarily lead to a point beyond which no further causes may be traced. At this juncture, the mind doth apprehend the existence of an Ultimate Cause, the Prime Mover, whose essence is not contingent upon any antecedent cause. Verily, He is the Uncaused Cause, the Originator of all existence, whose eternal nature transcends the confines of temporal causation." "Attend, O seeker of verity, unto the odyssey of the soul through the labyrinthine corridors of existence, fraught with vicissitudes and ordeals. Be cognizant that the essence of man resembles a precious gem, ensconced within the dross of temporal distractions. Yet, by virtue of the alchemy of spiritual refinement, this gem may be burnished to reveal its inherent luminosity. Contemplate, therefore, the evanescence of worldly delights, mere ephemeral phantasms fleeting upon the canvas of temporality. For authentic felicity lies not in the transient seductions of the material sphere, but in the perennial rapture of communion with the Divine. Seek, then, the quintessence of inner enlightenment, that which transcends the flux of fortune and the tumult of the external milieu. In the crucible of introspection and ascetic discipline, distill thou the essence of sagacity and piety, until thy soul, purged and resplendent, ascends unto the sublime pinnacles of spiritual consummation. Thus, O aspirant, let thy quest be not for transient treasures that wither in the inexorable march of time, but for the imperishable riches of the spirit, which endure unto eternity." "Behold, O seeker of enlightenment, the pilgrimage of the soul through the labyrinthine corridors of existence, fraught with trials and tribulations. Know ye that the essence of man is akin to a radiant jewel, enshrouded amidst the veils of worldly illusion. Yet, through the alchemy of spiritual refinement, this jewel may be unveiled, revealing its celestial splendor." "Contemplate, therefore, the fleeting nature of terrestrial pleasures, transient as the shifting sands of time. For true bliss resides not in the transitory allurements of the material realm, but in the eternal communion with the Divine Essence." "Seek ye, then, the elixir of inner illumination, distilled from the crucible of self-discipline and introspection. Let thy soul be as a beacon of light amidst the darkness of ignorance, guiding thee unto the shores of spiritual serenity." "Know thou, O seeker, that the path to happiness is strewn with the thorns of worldly temptation, yet adorned with the blossoms of spiritual insight. As the alchemist transmutes base metal into gold, so shalt thou transform the leaden burden of earthly concerns into the golden treasure of inner tranquility." "Thus, O pilgrim of the soul, let thy journey be not for ephemeral treasures that vanish with the morning mist, but for the everlasting riches of the spirit, which endure beyond the confines of time and space."

Respectfully, most Muslims who take knowledge blindly take it from self-appointed "dawa" bros on KZread, Facebook, Instagram, etc. Or the most prolific, most moneyed guy on the "Islamic books" racket. If more Muslim youth listened to elders, half the ummah's problems would be solved overnight. Not every elder will be a scholar, but will definitely still have oodles of Islamic wisdom. Our youth, sadly, are infected by western secular individualism and think that is somehow more authentically Islamic. And that is a tragedy. What Imam Al-Ghazali showed by his own sterling example is the power of leaving your own selfish prejudices and venturing sincerely on the Godly path of knowledge with no preconceived notions. The most apt metaphor for that is the wandering of the Sufi mystic, and it is no accident Al-Ghazali became one himself.

Usualy they cant comprehend that the "why" question can not be answered sufficiently. Because you use analysis. And analysis is never whole. Its only on one thing. And in relation to one thing you can keep asking why. One can read Platons causa to understand the different "whys". If you ask why in a "whole" thing you soon come to the conclusion that "why" is not a good question to get a grasp of what is going on. But not even grown men understand this.

He wasn't just a philosopher. He was a polymath having mastered many sciences such as logic, philosophy, rhetoric, poetry, jurisprudence, theology, etc. He is known as the 'proof of Islam' because he was unrivaled in his ability to defeat anyone in a debate. However, his life took a turn when he couldn't speak for 6 months and ventured for the next 10 years of his life working on killing his ego and becoming humble. Thence, he produced the revival of the religious sciences which is arguably the best work of its kind. A exeget and a manual for those who wish to do the same. Remember, that kant and Descartes have taken much of their content from him. That's just two of them. He is quoted more than 500 times by st. Aquinas.

Your experience demonstrates that it is vital that people do not merely act upon impulse and pure intuition but also look to research, break down and reconstruct their outlook on life and ethical views and examine how they can apply the wisdoms of disparate philosophers in real-life situations. That is what our channel also aims to aid with - not merely information as cold, abstract thoughts but genuine life advice from people who have dedicated their lives to answering the fundamental questions regarding humanity and our place in the universe. The crisis you are going through will certainly shape you for the better we are sure, as it shaped al-Ghazali!

I freaking love Al Ghazzali, may God be happy with him. I kinda agree with him almost entirely.

Jazakallah khair for this amazing video. You have explained it simply. Please do such short videos on philosophy and other personalities as well. I am sure you have put in a lot of efforts and its worth the time,.

Incredible

Ghazali was my first "guide", I really resonated with his thought, specifically Incoherence of the Philosophers, Deliverance from Error and Prohibition of Studying Kalaam. I have slowly "rejecting" Ghazali for the Neoplatonists (Ibn Sina), but I still really really like Ghazali.

I should say, I don't believe that Allah "doesn't know" the particulars and only knows the universe. Instead, the way I look at it is, Allah knows both, but his knowledge of the particulars is the same way how if you know y=x+2, you could derive any value of X for any value of X. So if you know the equation, you know all values of Y. Likewise, Allah's knowledge is that way, he knows the "equation" of all. I could be wrong about this and I ultimately submit that Allah knows bila kayf but this model makes sense to me.

You are touching some truth but are very wrong. Allah knows both what will ultimately happen but also the possibilities of what could have happened. He can change what happens based on the individual's will to change his self but is aware of that will and allows it to happen and already knew that this would be the ultimate outcome. He is simply letting it go that way as a testimony for the person's judgement on the day of judgement. He gives similar examples in the quran saying the disbeoievers would still reject the truth while knowing it even after hearing it an infinite amount of times in the quran.

Hi. The video should be released over the winter hopefully before the end of this year. I have to apologise for the delays as we have all been quite busy with post grad work at University.
