Thank you! This is a particularly interesting chapter, quite pertinent to the constant invocations of "experts" that has become nigh inescapable in recent years. As a quite unrelated aside, do you have any reading recommendations for one interested in introductions to Islam? Thank you once again for taking the time to make these videos.
Thank you. My suggested readings: 1. Islam and the Destiny of Man by Charles le Gai Eaton. 2. King of the Castle: Choice and Responsibility in the Modern World also by Charles le Gai Eaton. 3. What is Sufism? by Martin Lings. 4. And Muhammad is His Messenger by Annemarie Schimmel. 5. An Introduction to Shi’i Islam: The History and Doctrines of Twelver Shi’ism by Moojan Momen 6. Shi’ite Islam by Muhammad Husayn Tabatabai translated from the Persian by Seyyed Hossein Nasr 7. The Venture of Islam by Marshall Hodgson (this is a magisterial 3 volume history of Islam as a religion, culture, and civilization)
Shame he hates on theosophy, Im really enjoying "knowledge of the higher worlds and its attainment" by Rodolf stiener, he's definitely a theosophic and has an amazing school system.
We always enjoy your videos, thank you.

@@SaiyadNizamuddinAhmad Thank you for the hasty reply and the comprehensive recommendations.
@@Seeker-p4e "Hasty"is the wrong word. I assure you the reply was not written in haste, rather my reply was (in this instance) prompt.
@@SaiyadNizamuddinAhmad You are correct. Forgive the poor choice of words. One might say I spoke too hastily!
Reading list for shia theology please
There is almost nothing in English.
Good to see you Dr. Ahmed. I hope you are taking good care of yourself.
Thank you. Yse, doing well al-ḥamdulillāh.
Very interesting. Thank you!
Does Guenon have any writings on Judaism/Kabbalah? I’ve honestly never heard of any Jewish Traditionalists.
Thank you! 👍

You should refer to his book on the subject.
