Intellect, identity and intelligence that brigs us close to Allah (swt)

2021. március 30. - 19:05

For man, God begins where he cannot give a rational explanation for something. From then on, God exists for him/her and God will be nothing more than the performer of abracadabra and miracles!

I think the word miracle is a bad approach. Why not intelligence? Why do we not attribute to God a super intelligence, even though if we understand creation, we do not discover miracles, but a super intelligent arrangement. The way to learn about an intelligence is not to bombard it to particles (religions?) and analyze it at cellular level in our labs, but to cooperate with it. In a simple case, in order to get to know an African tribe, to comprehend their customs and cultures in right context, one needs to spend more time with them. Only then is revealed the “miracle,” i.e., the intelligence with which they are in harmony with the creation. Otherwise, we call them “primitive”. If we do that, we ourselves are primitive.
I do not agree with “domesticated” knowledge, or rather with its methodology, because cognition is confined to a narrow space. The space of a scientist, explorer then it is taken and taught as scripture.
Anyone who dare to understand the curriculum in a different way, will fail. Cognition may have meant a particular space for the scientist where he/she perceived a phenomenon, but why should someone else to embrace it the same way? Why can't the intelligence of the Creator generate a different image in me and open a different space?

When I publish my writings, caution everyone not to follow the thoughts in them as categorical! It’s forbidden! I just want to pave the way for a methodology that helps everyone to make their own brains work and process info. Based on the methodology one can adjust the knowledge to one's own size and capacity, and from then on to see the world differently. It is forbidden to follow a human being. Every person needs to be listened to, but what we hear is an element of a mosaic picture, of which the mass of them you have to create the whole picture. However, only one intelligence can help in that. The intelligence of the Creator. And if you want to get close to His intelligence, be able to “empty” your brain. Be able to free yourself from the unquestionable truths of John, Steve, Ahmed and Yusuf. They are the elements of the mosaic picture, but they are not the intelligence that makes up the whole picture.

To do all that, you have to be in good relation with your own mind. Because, most people, are not in peace with it. They are restless, stressed, depressed, etc., they are at war with their own employee, which is nothing but their own mind, their consciousness. Which boxer is knocking out himself? Well, that's what we do with our own consciousness. Not the potential ability of consciousness is the point, as it was given by Allah (SWT), but the method as we use it. The method that instead of establishing harmony, creates a constant conflict with the summit of intelligences, the Creator.

What can help us to take more advantage of our own intelligence? It is our intellect, in Arabic Dhihn (ذهن .(It is our perceptual capacity, our intellect, that only works when we "fill the stock up". It means that we use our senses (eyes, skin, ears, nose, tongue) to gather information about the environment. These alone would not mean much without the intellect that puts them in order. The more information we gather, the more refined our intellect becomes and our perceptual ability becomes a sophisticated tool. Consciousness, i.e., ‘Aql’ ( عقل ,(also works well if it is provided with the right amount of information. If our brains don’t get information, we don’t read, talk, analyze, or if we get directed information that satisfies only the zombies, the intellect doesn’t develop, or it just develops in a directed way. That is why we need to collect as many mosaic elements as possible, because the sharpness of the laid-out image definitely depends on their quantity and quality of these elements. At this point, identity, i.e., Hauwiya (هوية (is wedged between intellect and intelligence. It means: what are the rules of the game that I follow? Am I a believer, atheist, nationalist, socialist, etc.? How do I identify myself, where do I belong to? This is where the role of intelligence, in Arabic Zaka ’(الذكاء (begins. It is the way how to unload the picture. What mosaic elements do I put in and which ones do I throw out when composing the image? How much do I follow the manual of the puzzle, or how much do I ignore it? This manual is our support, the Scripture. However, that manual is taken out of our hands and is replaced with reality shows, soap-operas, news analysis etc. Brands are created to be patterns, that are pumped up with communication and the intellect is fed with distorted information. From distorted information cannot develop a healthy intellect, identity, and then intelligence. Eventually you get hurt, people get hurt and hurt people need a hurt leader. Then you will move away from Allah. Even if the name of God is uttered, something completely different is dictated to you as a content.

The image will not be complete even if you follow the manual. How far still we are from the isolation, attunement, interconnection with Allah, and the life itself, which takes place between two interconnections? Because the image of the mosaic comes to life between two interconnections (prayer, meditation). It becomes a life that passes in a contented spirit and is a submission under the intelligence of the Creator.

And He found thee wandering, and He gave thee guidance. (Quran 93:7)

The holy Prophet was born in the midst of the idolatry and polytheism of Makkah, in a family which was the custodian of this false worship. He wandered in quest of Unity and found it by the guidance of Allah. Even he had to be led by Allah.

nterpreting the above, putting intellect, identity and intelligence in context, the question raises: who follows the word of Allah, who can interconnect with His intelligence? May be there is one who can do that and doesn't call himself a Muslim. However, he may also be a follower of Islamic values while he is not even aware of. Nothing can question the truth of the Quran, but the literal truth of the Hadiths (I don't mean their logic!), can be questioned. And this is not about the authenticity of the Hadiths. We cannot deprive an Eskimo of the right to be a Muslim, but in vain he tries to abide by the regulations regarding the jellabiya, donation, Ramadan if he literally takes the Hadiths. He does not wear jellabiya because he would freeze in it, walks in snow all day, which is one of the most effective cleansers. Why should he take off his fur boots when entering the igloo or when establishes prayer outdoors if it is clean and otherwise his feet would be frozen? How could he donate as sadaqah dates, sa'a barley, if his natural food is raw seals and whale meat, which, if fried, would lose its vitamin content. Under these circumstances, what is considered Halal and Haram? How does he fast when the sun doesn't go down? And a thousand others. This is just an example of an Eskimo. Should Allah (SWT) not be accessible to them? Of course, yes. He is accessible even now! The way they live in symbiosis with nature is nothing more than an interconnection with the intelligence of Allah (SWT). Yeah, do they discover figures in the shadow of the flames what they lit at night, or do they see demons in the dance of polar light? Who doesn't fuck off? With the time they'll leave that habit.

In Africa, I considered the lives of Botswana tribes and Zimbabwean savannah dwellers much more Islamic, as they were interconnected to the intelligence of the Creator than in the case of some contemporary Saudi or Iranian scholars. Most of the precepts of the Quran are present in their lives in a way that they don’t even know about that! If this were not the case, their water springs would soon run out and the savannah would not give them food on a daily base. This also requires harmony between tribes, so they form norms of behavior among themselves, and behold, it is also an interconnection with the intelligence of the Creator. To comprehend that, you need intellect, religious identity, and intelligence. Not only the one considered Muslim, who establish prayers on a daily basis, speak according to the usual patterns, but has no brain.

One who wants to reach a high spiritual stage in the process of interconnection with Islam and Allah, must take a long way. All starts with radicalism. When we barely know something, we are the most impatient, intolerant. Then everyone else is a dick, especially Grandpa, who has gone through life, seen, heard a lot, and survived. When he passes away, we will be struck by the truth of the wise words spoken by the old man, while he was disregarded in his life. Then comes a stage where doubts awaken in the person and he begins to learn. He realizes he knows nothing. And after a long journey, it is not the revelations, the unquestionable truths that come out of our mouths, but the openness that will prevail over us. We realize that Allah has been everywhere, is everywhere and will be everywhere, so He has given the skills and abilities to people everywhere. There were those who used the abilities and there were those who did not. Whoever didn't use the skills properly, got into dissonance with nature and the environment and disappeared. Remained the one who discovered the secret of being in harmony and he formed his habits, i.e., his Sunnah. Why shouldn't that also be considered Islam? After all, Islam exactly means the submission to the will (intelligence) Allah! At one time we need to discover that people are no different, they just express themselves differently.

In the above, I intended to illustrate the path that one has to take in order to get close to the “top intelligence,” which we call Allah. After that, take a decision where a Boko Haram, or other radical idea promoter is on this map, or has he set out on the road at all? Or maybe he went in the opposite direction?
And if we look further away, take a decision who is the one who will allow you to walk on that path of cognition?
