Abbu’s brain tumor has recurred in multiple areas, and doctors are concerned it may have turned malignant. He has been hospitalized at PG Dhaka. We sincerely ask for your prayers and support during this difficult time.
Wittgenstein's anti-foundationalism is fundamentally incompatible with all Islamic theologians, who despite differing methods, share foundational commitments: God exists independently of human language, revelation conveys truth about Him, and religious statements make claims…

হাকিমুল উম্মত আশরাফ আলী থানভী — আধুনিক জমানার বুদ্ধিবৃত্তিক তাণ্ডবের মুখে যিনি ছিলেন ইসলামি ঐতিহ্যের এক অবিচল মিনার, যাকে গত শতকের শ্রেষ্ঠ আলেম বললেও অত্যুক্তি হবে না। তাঁর গভীর প্রজ্ঞায় রচিত গ্রন্থের আলোকে আধুনিকতাবাদের শিকড়চ্যুত খণ্ডন নিয়ে রিবাত আনছে এক অনন্য দরস।

Below is Akram Nadwi (someone who is supposed to be a scholar) saying that for the time being, the best thing for Muslim countries is secularism.
Do these guys read? How can someone not having shame in speaking about a topic without having read even the most basic material on this? At least read the Imam’s books. His last books were still endorsing Kalam.
