在本文中,我们讨论了伊斯兰世界当前的威权主义趋势,特别是体现在塔克利德制度中,即外行人盲目追随宗教学者。我们将其与伊本·阿拉伯的神秘传统以及早期深奥的什叶派传统进行比较,后者提供了一种更加“叛逆”的伊斯兰教,并提供了多元主义和普遍主义的权限,挑战了独裁主义对与上帝关系的解释封闭。作为进一步的比较,我们还将关注穆斯林世界一些自由主义和多元主义思想家的著作。在艰巨的任务和艰巨的责任中保持愉悦的心情,绝非易事。然而除了快乐还需要什么呢?——尼采 偶像的黄昏
In this article, we discuss the current trend of authoritarianism in the Islamic world, especially as embodied in the institution oftaqlîd, whereby a lay person blindly follows a religious scholar. We will compare this to the mystical tradition of Ibn ‘Arabî as well as the early esoteric Shî’ite tradition, where a much more “rebellious” type of Islam was offered and provided purviews of pluralism and universalism that challenge authoritarian closures of interpretation in relationship with God. By way of further comparison, we will also attend to the writings of some liberal and pluralistic thinkers in the Muslim world.Maintaining cheerfulness in the midst of a gloomy task, fraught with immeasurable responsibility, is no small feat; and yet what is needed more than cheerfulness?-NietzscheTwilight of the Idols
