I apologize but I couldn't know.
Hopefully it will get better next time
We always welcome your comments, always relevant and inspiring.
I didn't think mine “naive” intervention, written on the theme of the relationship between Christianity and Islam, was considered so unworthy as not to deserve a nod, since it is not the result of an individual devising but of a documentary confirmation
I respect the will of the Moderator but I don't understand it
I only take the liberty of rectifying an error that occurred in the off-the-cuff drafting of the short paper, where I wrote “Muslim brothers”. The term is intended “World Muslim Association”. I specify that the concepts I expressly expressed in relation to this circumstance are contained in the paragraph (Silvano Panunzio, Metapolitica, vol. 1 ed. Iduna) entitled Islam before Christ and Rome – Pius XI pag 195 -202 although widespread considerations of this type are widely disseminated in both the nearly one thousand pages of the two volumes that make up the work
I do not add anything else
Nobody has “censored” his speech, it was not published in order not to wrong what you wrote. In fact, you sent three comments divided into pieces that came separately that it is not possible for us to stick together because we do not know what their order is and because words are missing at the end of each piece.. If we provide a number of characters to write comments or questions, but some readers send us comments divided into several pieces, we have serious difficulties in putting them together, even because, when the characters are finished, if the writer does not notice and continues to write, then send, we receive an incomplete comment in which two or three lines are missing, followed by another in which other lines are missing.
If he permits it is something that you will have to see among you prelates, i “Franciscans” against the rest of the world.
To answer your question, I say no, I haven't read your book. A little because I have a very long list of things to read and I think death will catch me before it's finished, a powder’ because my ideas on Islam were formed mainly on Massignon, Corbin, Filippani Ronconi, dahmhardt, Ventura, Burckart and some subtle readings by Ibn Arabi and Rumi. Referring to Corbin I doubt but I really doubt that the Koran can be read and understood by means of an exegesis “Scientific”, given the stratified multiplicity of its meanings and its own “operation” specific. The practices of the Sufi and Shi'ite brotherhoods are born from the Koran and the hadiths and there is a detailed correspondence between the seven exegetical levels of the Koran, the seven prophets and the seven subtle centers. I certainly cannot dwell on this.
Of course I can be wrong and I'm ready to change my mind, since I am not faithful to the Islam of which, the rest, I certainly do not hope for an uncontrolled spread in Europe to the possible damage of Christianity. Corbin, author that I particularly love, he taught in Tehran for many years and wrote unforgettable pages on the themes of skiing, that I have read and loved very deeply, however, he remained a Christian, like his highly cultivated pupil Filippani Ronconi
Good evening
A Salesian father who has been there for almost 30 years teaching in Catholic schools in Palestine, Doctor of Islamic Theology with a degree from the Muslim University of Cairo, now he returned to Italy with problems caused by the fear that the threats of the Muslim students he taught gave him (lately he slept with his rifle under his bed), he always tells me that he is very angry with Pope Francis for the feel-good idea he tries to convey to us about the Islamic religion.
… don't tell me you've just stopped sleeping with the gun under the bed!
I apologize if I did not make myself clear: the last days in which he taught in Palestinian schools he slept (not only him) with the gun under the bed. Even now that he has been in Italy for several years he has not yet completely overcome the fears of the time.
… is good!
In Italy the rifle is even more useful.
When you have been touched by certain things, the memory never goes away.
In recent days I made a purchase at the holy land editions. Scrolling through the catalog I came across this text which is not the only one in the Catholic environment on the subject especially in the Franciscan context. I do not express opinions or judgments but only the perplexity of an observer who sees the object viewed from two conflicting points of view”
Bartolomeo Pirone In the name of Merciful God What is sung of mercy in the Koran
A precious book, accurate and enlightening that helps to identify in love and mercy the principle that Muslims and Christians share to discern what is good. "Will we ever be able to grasp the strength of the faith of authentic Muslims to understand the insane justifications advanced by those self-styled believers of 'Isis, to understand how far they are from the spirit of their Book if they drag other human beings into death? Their is not the authentic face of divine mercy!». The now long presence of Muslims in our countries and the sad news of recent years in the Middle East require us today to know, to better understand each other and live together, the doctrine and tradition of Islam. The need for confrontation must overcome the presumption of a clash that only erects walls and destroys bridges. An approach to the sources of the Islamic creed and its cornerstones can only help to open windows on often unexpected truths, to the detriment of prejudices that are more widespread than ever: Islam itself essentially revolves around the axis of divine mercy, for Islam God is…
… and if in my book – that perhaps he has not read – I prove otherwise, relying with scientific fidelity on the texts of the Koran and on the Islamic tradition?
Mohammed, for his worldly designs, he got hold of biblical materials in founding his religion. The Bible conveys the idea of a universal God, which places every man on the same level. Excellent starting point for a “revolutionary” who wants to subvert a tribal society. He gathers the discontented and overthrows it. He casually merges poorly digested biblical materials into the Koran with his earthly design. E’ obvious, But, that even educated people or people of good will, especially if ignorant of Christianity, may be attracted to Islam if some spark of biblical wisdom remains in the Koran. Let's think of Communism: anti-Christ perversion of the foundations of Western Christian society, yet bearer – where Christianity has never really arrived – of a universalistic idea (however perverted, precisely) of justice that may seem sacrosanct and revolutionary to those who have never even hoped to see it appear. This does not mean that the malignant roots of Islam and Communism fail. And with the root the consequent fruits. E’ this reality that the Pirone do not want to see, even if they have it under their eyes. However, since God also uses evil for his providential designs, and since it is not a sin to make humble assumptions on the matter, one might think this: than in history Islam, before the collapse, it is destined to fertilize many parts of the globe with that universalistic-monotheistic idea that brings men together and de-sacralizes every earthly authority (without delegitimizing it): idea that underlies Christian civilization.
