Rumi's poetry have been portrayed too much in a secular way in the west completely undermining the islamic elements in the translations to the point of making him a sole love poet. He spoke of divine love and also his famous quote: "I'm just on the path of Muhammad." In general Sufism too so much misunderstood in the west. Though as a Muslim who studies about other religions, philosophies and science. I agree there is an essence of divine or truth in everything but mixed up and flawed in some way or another. Peace✌🏻

I only recently discovered your channel, and now am delighted to see you put out a video on one of my favorite historical figures! Akbar's unusual inquisitiveness about and tolerance towards various faith traditions is fascinating to me, and I very much enjoyed your video on the topic. I tend to share your opinion that Akbar was not an apostate and that Din-i-Ilahi was not meant as a new religion to replace Islam; doubtlessly, he clashed with the more conservative Muslims in his court, but his devotion to Sufi spirituality leads me to conclude that he rejected doctrinaire rigidity but not Islam as a whole.

One of the things I love about your videos is how visually rich they are, perhaps because I am a painter. When I watch the videos dealing with topics of Islam, I notice how many depictions of human form there are from (relative) antiquity, despite the current ideas that Islam forbids painting or sculpting people and animals. Could you possibly do a video on art history in the Islamic world and how the current taboos of depicting people came to the fore?

[@islamurdutoenglish4389]

It isn't a current taboo. There are sayings of the Prophet Muhammad pbuh forbidding it. Just like the Bible forbids it thus: Exodus 20:4-5 says, "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth." Different individuals just adhere with different levels of strictness to religious laws, as they always have.

[@magnusnotcarlsen3241]

Mughals artists justified painting human form, saying that the painted forms are never perfectly similar to the creation of God. So it's okay. No one is challenging God or anything....

So good to see an in depth talk about such niche religious topics. There is in fact a lot of controversy to this day about Din Illahi, people in Pakistan are still confused about Akbhar being a Muslim

[@abubakarkhan4215]

What a great analysis that paints a neutral image of Akbar. Explaining his positive and negative sides. A question: Would you say that the scholars and people who opposed Akbar Deen-e-Ilahi had a good reason behind it. As i read, his unconscious way of mixing religious (by keeping everyone happy) was having a negative impact on the Islamic Jurisprudence “shariah” and the continuing mixing, might have been completely dissolved into some hybrid of many religious doctrine such that the actual knowledge of Shariah or the Muhammad’s religion would have been either completely wiped off or its actual knowledge would have been distorted for the coming generations.

[@abubakarkhan4215]

Because in some way, being an Emperor he was following the same route as Emperor Constantine followed. As when Constantine regarded himself as a follower of certain religious idea then all his empire was also forcefully or unconsciously started accepting the religion of their Emperor and consequently becoming Christians. So in a way, both were similar and this way, Akbar Deen Ilahi (a hybrid religion) might have had the same influence on his empire and his people and therefore a lot of Islamic scholars came to the rescue to save the true teachings of Muhammad’s religion for the coming generations.

@Lilia murah Mohammad was the most manipulator and narcissistic that's why he is among the most influential leaders in the world

[@WereScrib]

@Lilia murah Not gonna get hard here on most of this but the Tolstoy quote is a very literal forgery. Tolstoy has a lot of unorthodox views and did think well of Islam, but his Christianity is rather clear even in his unfinished works. There's a reason he's a founder of Christian Anarchism. But he was interesting heavily in ascetic practices of other religious creeds. Unfortunately, we literally know basically everything about Tolstoy's life because he wrote a daily journal of everything he did. He was a weird dude. Really the best evidence he didn't embrace Islam is that its not common knowledge, both the Tsar and the USSR wanted to slander Tolstoy due to his popularity and obsession with Georgianism, an economic system that was personally slammed by Marx but similarly called for the destruction of private property, and its inclusion in his final book literally excommunicated him due to pressures from the government. Heck, he died trying to join a Christian group as he felt Russia rejected his own form of Christian teachings.
