ReplyDeleteAn interesting take on the idea of extremism is to define an extremist as one who is unbalanced. That is to say, Iman (faith), Islam (practice) and Ihsan (devotion) are the three basic fundamentals of the din. They can be conceptualied as a three-legged stool. IF all three are applied correctly, are of the right 'length,' and strong, then the stool will support one's weight. If one is defective, the stool will topple or collapse. It appears that most of the extreme groups thoughout our history have had a deficiency in one of these three pillars, often caused by an unhealthy pre-ocupation with another. For exampe, these 'jihadis' have developed an unhealthy fascination with military jihad at the expense of good character, which is why they can quite rationally square blowing poeple up, attacking churches and cutting off civilian heads with good Islamic practice.
ReplyDeleteAnother hallmark of extremism is the large ego - one feels that one's own supposed piety and righteousness render one better than everyone else, including scholars. Therefore, whoever disagrees with such a person is automatically incorrect. We shoudl be more like Imam Shafi who, in a debate with a lesser scholar said, 'I am right with the possibility of being wrong; he is wrong with the possibility of being right.' One finds this totally lacking among both extremists and many ordinary people as well - it is perhaps a universal human failing that is accentuated in people who are zealous about anything.
