THE TRUE ABRAHAMIC RESTORATION
Faith, reason, revelation and progress.
The mission is to educate the public on islam as the restoration of the tradition of Abraham, known in ancient Arabic as Hanīfīyyah. Through sensemaking and a first order perspective, I teach revelation and the broad prophetic guidance along with foundational principles to show how they address contemporary social, political and psychological needs for human flourishing.
The Solution
We need a cultural movement inspired by the Quran that brings together conscious, like-minded people to revive the Quranic tradition of Abraham and its Ishmaelite legacy, and organise and mobilise the faithful who share a godly social and political culture.

"Whoever responds to the people merely based on what has been related in books that differ from their customs, habits, their era, their social/political circumstances and the contextual variables at play, misguides others and is himself misguided. He injures the faith greater than a doctor who treats patients failing to consider their different customs, habits, era, circumstances and contextual variables, merely seeking to reflect what is in the general books of medicine. Such a doctor is an imbecile and such a jurist too is an imbecile; both are the most harmful they could possibly be to the people’s faith or their bodies – may God help us!"
– Abū Bakr b. al-Qayyim, Damascene theologian and legal philosopher, d. 1350
