Ignorance/Jahiliyyah
Wednesday 21st November 2012
Text of the day: “But I do not think you understand the terrible beauty of devotion, this infatuation with God. You think of Qutb as an intellectual like yourself, you don’t begin to plumb the passion of the man, this is perhaps the problem with you liberals — you can only imagine the minds of other liberals. But, how, how does one negotiate with people who think with their blood?” (Nasir in Steve Waters’s Ignorance/Jahiliyyah)
