One of the outstanding sources of resistance to imperial power in the Muslim world came from Sufi groups. While Sufi brotherhoods are generally known for a more quietist and mystic approach to Islam, they traditionally rank among the best organized and most coherent groupings in society. They constitute ready-made organizations - social-based NGOs, if you will - for maintaining Islamic culture and practices under periods of extreme oppression and for fomenting resistance and guerrilla warfare against foreign occupation. The history of Sufi participation in dozens of liberation struggles is long and widespread across Asia, the Middle East, and Africa. Sufi groups were prominent in the anti-Soviet resistance, and later against the American in Afghanistan and against US occupation forces in Iraq.

كنت أظن فيما سب أن البكاء و إذراف الدموع و تلك الأمور شعيرة خصصت كطقس من طقوس الوداع الأخير ، لكننا نرى و نقرأ هنا شيء آخر ، مصابُ من نوع آخر لا شبيه له من أول الدنيا لآخرها ، رضيعُ يبكى عليه ساعة ولادته ، هنا رسول الله و ابنته و حشدُ كبيرُ من الملائكة في حال نياح على رضيع ساعة ولادته ..

حثا إنني الآن على يقين تام ، بأن الحسين عليه السلام قد ضرب بمصابه كل العادات و التقاليد المتبعة عرض الحائط، و انفرد بشخصه و ذاته عن الجميع ، فسلامُ على من بكى عليه ساعة مولده رسول الله ، و ناحت عيه الزهراء ، و جزع له جبرائيل و الحشد العظيم !

هو الحسين .. ذلك المصحف المخضب بالدماء ،
هو الحسين .. آياتُ حزنٍ رتلتها كربلاء ،
هو الحسين ..توراة موسى بالعزاء ، إنجيل عيسى بالبكاء،
(قرآن طه ، و الذي ثال (وَفّدّيْنَاهُ بِذِبْحٍ عَظِيم
أيّ الحُسين .. ذبيحُ أصحاب الكساء !

How bold we are. We shy from a flame that licks the tip of our finger for a fraction of a second, and from which we are allowed the luxury of escape. But most of humankind flaunt their disobedience in the face of an eternal fire that engulfs all, and from which there is no escape. Ever.

The vast majority of administrators, at all times and in all societies, are prone to commit grievous errors if left entirely to their own devices. Hence, they should not be left to their own devices, and should be allowed to govern only in consultation with the accredited representatives of the whole community, which is one of the classical lessons of history that no nation may neglect except at its own peril.

All the dilemmas and questions of today were known in ethics more than 2,000 years ago. All the greatest teachers of mankind whether prophets such as Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad or non-prophets such as Confucius , Gautama, Buddha, Socrates, Kant, Tolstoy , and Martin Buber, covering a period from the sixth century BC up to the present ( Martin Buber died in 1965) have taught essentially the same morals. As distinguished from rules about social orders and ways of production , moral truths are constant. The reason for this lies in the fact that the riddle had been established at the moment of creation in the "prologue in heaven" in the act preceding the whole of human history. Intelligence, education, and experience do not in themselves help us approach or better understand all of that. Jesus pronounced his truth when he was a child and was slightly more than thirty when he was condemned. He needed neither knowledge nor experience for his great, capital truths about God and man because these truths could not be reached by knowledge or experience. Are they not "Hidden from the wise and the learned and revealed to the little ?
