Islam W Praktyce

ciekawy cytat na temat modlitwy, ali mowi dokladnie to samo co jest w sufi islamie o modlitwie:

There are people who worship Allah to gain His Favors this is the worship of traders; while there are some who worship Him to keep themselves free from His Wrath this is the worship of slaves; a few who obey Him out' of their sense of gratitude and obligations this is the worship of free and noble men.

Al-Islam

إِنَّ قَوْماً عَبَدُوا اللهَ رَغْبَةً فَتِلْكَ عِبَادَةُ التُّجَّارِ، وَإِنَّ قَوْماً عَبَدُوا اللهَ رَهْبَةً فَتِلْكَ عِبَادَةُ الْعَبِيدِ، وَإِنَّ قَوْماً عَبَدُوا اللهَ شُكْراً فَتِلْكَ عِبَادَةُ الْأَحْرَارِ

Niektórzy czczą Boga w nadziei na nagrodę – jest to wiara kupców.
Inni czczą Boga w obawie przed karą – jest to wiara niewolników.
Inni czczą Boga z wdzięczności – oto wiara ludzi wolnych. (Nahdżul Balagha, sentencja 237)

zawsze jak czytam ali, to szkoda mi ze nietzsche jego nie czytal... no i pozatym szkoda ze ja tez nie czytalam ali, i przez tyle czasu tylko czytalam nietzsche o chrzescijanstwie.

bo nietzsche krytykowal chrzescijanstwo za to ze robi z czlowieka slabego niewolnika, itd, ale nie znal islamu zbyt dobrze...

z tego co wiadomo, nie mnial durzo zlego do powiedzenia o islamie:

Mohammedanism, as a religion for men, is deeply contemptuous of the sentimentality and mendaciousness of Christianity, which it feels to be a woman's religion.

oczywiscie krytykowal islam jako system i religia, ale mnial tez do islamu pewien szacunek... i tego bym sie nie spodziewala bo jego nienawisc byla spora jesli chodzi o religie:

Nietzsche's praise of Islam as a `ja-sagende semitische Religion', his admiration for Hafiz, his appreciation of Muslim Spain, his belief in the essentially life-affirming character of Islam, not only spring from a desire to find a palatable Other to Judaeo-Christian-European modernity, but also comment on how little Nietzsche actually knew about the cultures he so readily appropriated in his assault on European modernity. Nietzsche's negative comments on Islam - his generic dismissal of Islam with other religions as manipulative thought systems, his depiction of Mohammed as a cunning impostor, reveal in Nietzsche not only the same ambiguities towards Islam as we find towards Christ or Judaism, but also a willingness to use the multiple identities of Islam for different purposes at different moments in his work.
