La vie ce réduit telle a l'islam et a faire de l'argent ?non je pense plutôt que cet une belle illusion .L'islam est un guide pour les hommes un far dans cette mer si sombre , un voile devant ce mal , une lumière dans cet obscurité si chaque individu de notre culture aurai adhéré a la fois concrètement et sens ambiguïté a l'islam , notre culture auraient très certainement conquis une grande partie du monde . Toutes les grandes valeurs morales et éthique vienne des livre sacré , ne ta t-il pas trouver orphelin et ta accueillie , oui accueilli dans la bonté et la droiture il la donner un non a toute chose et toute chose qui permette la subsistance dans ce monde éphémère et tous sont soumis a lui . Quel hypocrisie de la part de certain philosophes ou certain individus qui pense que l'homme a atteint un certain stade de maturité qui lui permet de définir lui même ses propre règles , faux car toutes ses règles vienne du tous miséricordieux .
La vie des soninké ne ce résume pas a l'islam et a faire de l'argent mais plutôt a la perdition totale de l'islam cet a dire des valeurs humaine et morale qui forge chaque individu , qui forge et structure chaque groupe d'individu , chaque société , de chaque culture , de chaque pays , pour qu'il puisse vivre dans une harmonie profonde . Non Monsieur nous avons oublier l'islam car l'homme et sont arrogance a décider que les coutumes et les traditions prendrons et prenne le dessus sur les valeurs divine et universelle quelle absurdité , dieu ne pardonnera point cela ses pour cela que ses notre fin , celle de l'immoralité et du non respect pour la folie des cœurs et des âmes , mais dieu net certainement pas inattentif a ce que l'on fait.
Votre père vous a appris la bonté et l'excellence ses toute a son honneur , la noblesse du nom n'existe pas ses juste un mensonge de plus dans cet folie humaine , seul celle du cœur et des actes est propice a désigner le noble .
Mais aurons nous un jours le courage d'en discuter de façon solennelle sens ambiguïté , aurons nous le courage d’être de réel serviteur de dieu de crié haut et fort cet folie , de ne plus fermé les yeux mais de ce lever avec courage et défier les partisan de l’obscurantisme . Hélas le courage nous manque car celui qui connait la vérité préférera suivre le menteur de peur d'avoir des problème ou d'avoir certain commentaire le régressent .
Qui aura le courage de dire solennellement j'accepte de donner mon enfant a cet homme malgré que sa caste est différente de la mienne. Oui le courage nous manque , nous préférons le mensonge car il est plus facile de mentir et de ce mentir a soie même .
"Prenons donc exemple sur ce jeune guerrier qui alla sauver sa belle , donner comme offrande au serpent a sept tète le jeune Traoré alla mettre a bas la bête pour sauver sa princesse . essayons de retrouver nos valeurs mais pour moi ce net que utopie ."
Mon Frere Nas, this is where you confuse me deeply. If we are to take the example of Mamadi and Sia Yattabare, I think your whole thesis in this particular response and indeed from the beginning falls to the ground despite your spirited defense of God and Islam.
Mamadi slew the seven-headed serpent out of LOVE not out of devotion to some custom or to some tradition or for that matter to some religion and its god or gods and priests and priestesses. Love of Sia meant more to him than custom, tradition and religion. Chalk one for Love and courage. I think this is an extremely important lesson for all Sooninko if we are to understand the movement of culture that is alive, meaning dynamic. The lesson we draw is that when custom, tradition, and religion have served their purposes and Humankind has to take the necessary steps to a higher culture and a higher understanding of Life and living, then, it is advisable for those who see this necessity to do what is required to usher in the new. The old has to die or seamlessly blend into the new.
Now this courage of Mamadi's and that of Sia's has been followed by the Sooninko who converted to Islam. They deserted their own religion and adopted the one from Arabia despite opposition from the die-hard traditionalists and conservatives.
Now may I question, in the spirit of this dialogue, why the Sooninko converted to Islam rather than do what the hanifs did in Arabia that produced Mohammed, as the prophet of Allah? The hanifs could have converted to Judaism or to Christianity en masse. But only a few did, among which was one relative of Khaddiya who felt that the new religion of Islam felt short of her expectations and so out of frustration, she converted to Christianity. The hanifs sought their own way and they were rewarded with Mohammed and Islam that you have so far so eloquently defended. It did not come about by following the existing old religions. It came about because there were seekers after a new guidance of god.
Now in my mind, this religion too has served its useful purposes for humanity and that we Sooninko should start now to seek a direct line to the Unknowable Kamanen for a new Divine Guidance. This will be in the spirit of Sooninkaaxu in my mind, in the spirit of Mamadi and Sia, in the spirit of the Sooninko converted to Islam and Christianity.
Again, this is a dialogue. All approaches and meaningful contributions and challenges have to be intelligently addressed. If we can learn this dialogue, may be, as stated earlier, we may all come upon this Intelligence that will lead us to understand and create a higher culture, a higher society, and indeed, a higher civilization.
The two tenets of Sooninkaaxu quoted earlier-Islam and money-are well known main pillars of Sooninke culture for centuries now, Nas. It may be a cliche or a stereotype, but in general, we cannot divorce ourselves or for that matter our culture from these two tenets. Your critique is well taken, but it goes more to state the lack of proper education than anything else. For over a thousand years, the Sooninko have fielded Muslims to the Islamic course. Yet, over ninety percent of Sooninko are illiterate during most of that time. Until the modern era, mass education was not a pillar of Sooninke society. How can we expect then to understand and participate fully in the development of Islam and continually regenerate our culture when one has to first learn a foreign language, totally different from one's own, to know the dictates of the religion? Again, I maintain that religion is always at the core of most cultures. The well educated in the tradition of Islam can contribute to the discussion on the laws and the hadiths. However, that is falling into interpretations and differing opinions which do lend themselves to huge confusion. To have a direct understanding, you need a direct connection which is not available at the moment. Because few Sooninko are literate in their own language, even a written translation of the Quran in Sooninke will be of little use but to the few, any discussion on culture that will include all has to be oral.
Are we beginning to see the outlines of the demise of the culture? A cardinal pillar is in a foreign language that only few have managed to master.
You have made a spirited defense of Islam, which is admirable. You have put enormous stress upon following the laws of god. May I quietly posit something new in this. Please take no offense. Just reflect on it. Or should I state, could I pose a question or two here?
Where there is LAW, divine or secular, will you discover LOVE there? Isn't the law the absence of LOVE? Please think on this.
My Brothers and Sisters, these are not idle questions. One comes with fear in its wake, a sense of insecurity, hypocrisy, cleverness, the judge, the law enforcers, criminality, prison, sin and hell. The other, I would like you to reflect on in terms of two lovers. Is the foundation of their love based on LAW? Or is it above and beyond the law?
Nas, you and many others posit a Sooninkaaxu ever tied to Islam. I posit a Sooninkaaxu based on awakening to an Intelligence and Wisdom that are ever new and fresh.
This Intelligence and Wisdom are never static; they are always dynamic, changing according to the circumstances and our needs and challenges of Life. This is the principal pillar of my Sooninkaaxu. Through this, I can come upon the living spirit of the culture and allow it to help me address the challenges and demands of Life and living.
We, too, (Sooninko) are custodians of something Divine. Discover it. It is available. And it is the mother and father of Islam, Christianity, and Judaism. This is the challenge.
