"The All-Encompassing" or al-Muheet is a less discussed of the Qur'anic divine attributes because many traditions/hadith of the devotional "99 Names" and subsequent Sufi commentaries do not include it. Al-Tilimsani, following the incidence of divine names as they appear in the Qur'an, dedicates a discussion of al-Muheet. Adnan and Marc engage in an exploration of the meanings and experiences of encompassing and return to the question of the divine-human relationship and the "jamali" and "jalali" distinction we've been considering in recent names emphasizing divine lordship. What is the relationship between the "Avenging" attribute al-Muntaqim and the ontological, universal "Mercy" of al-Rahman in the experience of "The All-Encompassing", al-Muheet? A phenomenological perspective bears particular fruit as we conclude with al-tlimimsani's quotation of the great North African Sufi Master Abu Madyan, "Whoever speaks of dates without tasting their sweetness in his mouth has not spoken of dates!" His final exhortation in his discussion of al-Muheet is: "So understand this, and you will understand the deepest meanings of the final end through your own tasting and state, not trhough transmitted reports and hearsay!" As ever, we reflect on how the name, the sufi commentaries on the name, might together bring insight to a deeper consideration of our own contemporary material conditions and instrospections spiritually, psychologically, and phenomenologically.

We look forward to your comments!

The series The Karbabal Paradigm and Anti-Imperialist Resistance for Muharram addresses the important ideas that helped transform modern Shi'i devotional practice and theology into a revolutionary anti-imperialist force. Often called the ideologist of the Islamic Revolution in 1979, Dr. Shariati's writings and teachings are a fundamental source of anti-imperialist thought from the Global South. In particular he articulated a non-secular but radical and liberatory project that is at the heart of the Axis of Resistance's use of Shi'i values, rituals, and sacred histories as tools of struggle. You could say this episode will begin to delve into the historical reinterpretation of Shariati that gave birth to Shi'i liberation theology. Join me for Day 2/3 of Muharram on this series.

In this 7th episode of the Names of God series, Adnan and Marc reflect on al-Malik, the King or Owner, another name or attribute that raises the questions of lordship and servanthood in their intimate, non-dualistic interrelationship and the language of hierarchy in the context of spiritual development and psychological health for humans. Because al-Tlimsani discusses the appearance of al-Malik in the context of its Qur'anic appearance in the opening surah, al-fatiha, as "Master of the Day of Judgment," we discussed the eschatological meanings of the "afterlife" from an experiential understanding in juxtaposition to conventional understandings in Islamicate (and broadly monotheistic) theology. al-Ghazali's definition of "kingship" as being free from need opens up ways of understanding spiritual self-sufficiency or sovereignty in our daily life as a practical absorption of this name spiritually. In a wide ranging conversation about different dimensions of al-Malik, we explore the spiritual, the metaphysical, the political, and the social in contemporary life from both conceptual and experiential approaches for what it means to be human.

his episode could equally be titled "ReOrienting History Islamically". Adnan is joined by historian of late Ottoman history and author of Why History Matters: Reviving Faith Through the Lens of History to talk about Eurocentric historiography and historical consciousness and whether Islamicate history provides alternatives and how global or world history might benefit from a reorientation. This is a crucial question not only for Muslims or scholars of history. It is evident that this history is understood principally through orientalist assumptions and frameworks that propose "western modernity" as the only standard for envisioning sovereign futures. As a result, rethinking and reorienting history is of universal concern and interest for understanding the human and envisioning a future beyond the hegemony of Western imperialist racial capitalism. What can studying not only Islamicate history but history "islamically" contribute to envisioning a just, equitable future for humanity? We'll ask Dr. Yakoob Ahmed and discuss the issues with you, so post your comments and questions!

This Guerrilla History series previewing and analyzing the major international football (soccer) tournaments on and off the pitch continues with the disastrous US/Canada/Mexico hosted World Cup 2026. Amid war on Iran, anti-immigrant ICE terror gangs, dismal initial attendance numbers and astronomical costs, this world cup looks to be one of the worst in history. No wonder there have been calls to boycott it and the US. A terrific global panel joins Guerrilla History hosts Adnan and Henry to discuss the geopolitics of the once beautiful game and review the myriad ways this world cup violates the spirit of sport. Gazan journalist Abubaker Abed , Resistance is Fertile podcast co-host Indi.ca, and returning panelist and great friend of both Guerrilla History and the Adnan Husain Show Latin American historian Alex Aviña will break this down. Join us live Tuesday June 9th, 2pmET/7pmDublin/9pmKazan/12amColombo.

Adnan and Marc explore the name al-Rabb, which is usually translated at "The Lord" but with elements of educative and nourishing dimensions. Some even translate the name as "Nourisher". Although this is not one of the 99 names listed in typical devotional traditions, this self-description or name appears early in the Qur'an in its opening chapter, Surah Fatiha, in the verse "Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds." Al-Tilimsani discusses it, so Marc and I reflected on the themes of Lordship and Servanthood in the psychological and experiential schemes of Sufi understanding of this name as well as our own reflections. As ever, we try to orient our discussion not only around examining the meanings but also the mechanisms of the names for spiritual and psychological development and activation. Also as usual, we find social value as well in the effort to explore the Names in contemporary times. Join us!
