Philosophers from before the 1800s are very unreadable. So out of touch and you can't relate to them other than through third party interpretations.

Are you kidding? I find philosophers from the 1800 onwards (especially 20th century continental philosophers) incredibly esoteric and hard to read. At least people like Plato and Epictetus taught you life lessons. Wtf, you have to have a dictionary and a companion guide just to read 1 page of Kant's nonsense. And you don't even gain any new insight.:susp:
 
Cabdulqaadir Cismaan Maxamuud Oromo , Somali philosopher, published several great works.


Ibrahim Hakki Erzurumi (Turkish Philosopher)



Zera Yacob ( Christian Ethiopian Philosopher from Axum,)

Quote
"I have learnt more while living alone in a cave than when I was living with scholars"


Ghazzali, Sayyid Qutub & Ibn Sab'in


The Europhile quackademics philosophers were just engaging in fruitless mental gymnastics, I would always fall asleep reading them, they were the cure for my insomnia.
 
I wouldn't recommend something I haven't read myself which is more than can be said for your ilk.

That seems principled position you take though you are assuming others aren't like you and are recommending something they haven't read. Aren't you judgmental beer-head that way?

You saw Alghazali and you didn't like it.

The brain parasite triggered him, you caught it in action very nicely.

Their masks have slipped, in the old days I was almost fooled by it, because they present themselves as a people of 'reason', 'evidence' and even worse 'anti-bias' with open-minds.

The false paradigm we had been conditioned with, which is that evidence leads to 'believe' and thus 'guidance' the Quran helped crush as falsehood, because evidence came to many and they rejected, pharaoh alone rejected 7 major signs.

I remember recently a colleague when asked what would constitute sufficient evidence for him to believe in God, he responded the laws of physics being suspended and him being levitated to the skies, followed by if it all did happen he wouldn't believe because it's likely hallucination or a dream. :ftw9nwa:

The verse below sums these people up, even after they are thrown into hell begging to be brought back, Allah mentions that if hypothetically they were brought back (as he knows all) they would go back to their disbelief, it's captured beautifully.


Surah Anam verse 27/28

If you could but see when they are made to stand before the Fire and will say, "Oh, would that we could be returned [to life on earth] and not deny the signs of our Lord and be among the believers."

But what they concealed before has [now] appeared to them. And even if they were returned, they would return to that which they were forbidden; and indeed, they are liars.

They lack sincerity for sure bro. That is why I never treat them as if they mean what they say but aim to muzzle them as fast as I can so we move on to something more useful. Give me anything but their circular insincere debates meant to convey their blind rage against God and people who have faith in him.

They are so predictable you know what they will say next.
