@MercifulMessage @rewhum Delete this. Even the tafsirs you link work against you.
He ﷺ was a Muslim, just as Ibrahim (as) was a Muslim. The reference to “did not know imaan” refer to it's details and religious rulings which had not been revealed yet.
Jalalayn (and many other tafsirs will say the same):

Not true. He was not a Muslim until Allah ﷻ guided him
وَكَذَلِكَ أَوْحَيْنَا إِلَيْكَ رُوحًا مِنْ أَمْرِنَا مَا كُنْتَ تَدْرِي مَا الْكِتَابُ وَلا الإِيمَانُ وَلَكِنْ جَعَلْنَاهُ نُورًا نَهْدِي بِهِ مَنْ نَشَاءُ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا وَإِنَّكَ لَتَهْدِي إِلَى صِرَاطٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ (52)

قُلْ إِنِّي أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أَكُونَ أَوَّلَ مَنْ أَسْلَمَ وَلا تَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ (14)

This is why when Muhammad ﷺ and the Sahaba converted to Islam, they took a trip to Men’s Wearhouse to get suits and ties so they could be different than the turban, izaar and thobe wearing Polytheists of Quraysh
Abu Najm Fernando bin al-Iskandar@IbnalIskandar
You did something that is, at the very least, Makruh. Don't think that all these ignorant people congratulating you on your violation of Islamic law means you did something good. The Kimono is something non-Muslims wear. Muslims are ordered in Islam to oppose non-Muslims externally and internally. Muslims wear a Thawb with Izar or Salwar, or Salwar and Qamis.

As long as your idea of Sunni is restricted to just Gulf elites, of course you would think this. Palestine, Chechnya, Afghanistan, Algeria, Somalia, overwhelmingly Sunni. Even most of the Iraqi insurgency that gave Bush the original kick in the teeth were Sunnis

only south Asians celebrate their nation's brain drain as a flex, for ex among Maghribis or Iranians it's one of their saddest facts & they try to rationalize it by blaming politics, you'd think Pakistan esp the rural areas are full of doctors
Umar Saif@umarsaif
Ever doubted the talent of Pakistanis? 151 graduates of King Edward Medical College in Lahore matched into the highly competitive US medical residency this year. Pakistani doctors, scientists, and entrepreneurs have consistently done wonders all over the world ...

@Farid_0v As far as I know, Haydari is someone who rejects this. In other words, he is saying “yeah twelver scholars historically make takfir of Sunnis, but not me, I think they were all wrong”
I believe when he said this the broader shi'i establishment denounced him:

Bad news for us Sunnis.

If you want a glimpse into the future of western society, imagine a moroccan and somali refugee telling that you are a turd worldist for not wanting to die for Israel

If a U.S. government official wrote this article, it would violate federal classification law. A Department of Energy classification bulletin (WPN-136) bars officials from releasing information or even referencing Israel’s nukes.
In 2013, Los Alamos DOE employee James Doyle had his home raided and his security clearance revoked after referencing Israel's nukes in an academic paper.

This important statement was inserted in passing in an article in the New York Times: “Israel is believed to possess about 100 nuclear weapons; Iran has none”

As much as I find a lot of the "appeals to pan-islamism" to be retarded, the fact that many of its detractors are people trying to get others to subscribe to their far more retarded nationalisms makes me weary of countersignalling "ummatics"

No one is more victim of the ummah chummah mindset than an average Pakistani. ._.

Newt Gingrich just posted a satirical Substack article calling to use nuclear bombs to create a new Iran-proof canal through the UAE and Oman.
He does not appear to realize it’s satire.
We are governed by morons with middle school level reading comprehension.
Newt Gingrich@newtgingrich
Instead of fighting over a 21-mile-wide bottleneck forever, we cut a new channel through friendly territory. A dozen thermonuclear detonations and you’ve got a waterway wider than the Panama Canal, deeper than the Suez, and safe from Iranian attacks. chinatalk.media/p/its-time

You still hear about that "Salman Rushie fatwa" by Ayatollah Khomeini nearly half a century later, but the Jewish state has effectively executed 1000s of academics in the Muslim World over the decades, these were the top minds of the region supposed to supervise the next gen
asad abukhalil أسعد أبو خليل@asadabukhalil
Just imagine if any other state were to do it: do you know that since 1948, Israel has actually murdered Iraqi, Egyptian, Lebanese, Syrian, Tunisian, Palestinian, Iraqi, Iranian, and Jordanian scientists because their knowledge posed a threat to the security of Israel?

NYT's Bret Stephens: "There's a fair bit of evidence that anti-Semitism doesn't decline as educational achievement rises—in fact, it increases."

@Covenant_watch If I am not mistaken it also goes through the same Khalid but it is now raised (as if a later transmitter raised it). Seems al-Albani also weakens it

@Covenant_watch Fertilizer issue aside, they're forecasting El Niño fore later this year...

@Covenant_watch I doubt this authentic. The earliest source I can find has this as saying of Khalid bin Ma'dan (tabi'i), who does not ascribe it to anyone else
Pic from Nuaym bin Hammad's Kitab al-Fitan. Other reports in the chapter seem to imply this is a celestial event
