About
THE ABRAHAMIC RESTORATION
Faith, reason, revelation and progress.
The mission is to educate the public on 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 social movement that brings together like-minded people to revive the tradition of Abraham and its Ishmaelite legacy, 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
