Both Bedouins and sedentary people are natural groups&lt;/h2&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;Their differences are from the different ways in which they make their living.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;h2 id=&#34;4-bedouins-are-closer-to-being-good-than-sedentary-people&#34;&gt;4. Bedouins are closer to being good than sedentary people&lt;/h2&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;The 16 reason for it is that the soul in its first natural state of creation is ready&#xA;to accept whatever good or evil may arrive and leave an imprint upon it.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>The Reliance Of Sedentary People On Laws Destroys Their Fortitude And Power Of Resistance</title>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;This is because not everyone is master of his own affairs. Their leaders are few.&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;As a rule, man must by necessity be dominated by someone else.&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;Self-reliance eventually becomes a natural quality to the people if:&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;!-- ## 7. Only tribes held together by group feeling can live in the desert --&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;God put good and evil into the nature of man.&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;Thus, He said in the Qur&amp;rsquo;an:&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;h2 id=&#34;9-purity-of-lineage-is-found-only-among-the-savage&#34;&gt;9. Purity of lineage is found only among the savage&lt;/h2&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;This is because of the poor life, hard conditions, and bad habitats that are peculiar to the Arabs.&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;They are the result of necessity that destined (these conditions) for (the Arabs), in as much as their subsistence depends on camels and camel breeding and pasturage.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>Leadership cannot be handed to those not of the same descent</title>

      <guid>https://www.superphysics.org/research/ibn-khaldun/muqaddimah/chapter-2/part-11/</guid>
      <description>&lt;!-- ## 11. Leadership over people who share in a group feeling cannot be vested in those not of the same descent --&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;This is because leadership exists only through superiority, and superiority only through group feeling. 61&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;This nobility is in the basic and real sense. Others will have nobility only in a metaphorical and figurative sense.&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;This is because nobility and prestige are the result of personal qualities.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>Group Feeling and Royal Authority</title>

      <description>&lt;h2 id=&#34;16-the-goal-of-group-feeling-is-royal-authority&#34;&gt;16. The goal of group feeling is royal authority.&lt;/h2&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;This is because group feeling:&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;ul&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;gives protection and mutual defense&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;allows the pressing of claims and other kinds of social activity&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;/ul&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;Human beings need someone to act as a restraining influence and mediator in every social organization, in order to keep the members from fighting each other.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>Meekness and Docility to Outsiders are Obstacles to Royal Authority</title>

      <guid>https://www.superphysics.org/research/ibn-khaldun/muqaddimah/chapter-2/part-18/</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;This is because meekness and docility break the vigor and strength of group-feeling.&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;The meekness and docility of the people shows that their group feeling is lost. They do not become fond of meekness until they are 1,256 too weak to defend themselves.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>A Qualification For Royal Authority Is The Eager Desire To Acquire Praiseworthy Qualities</title>
      <link>https://www.superphysics.org/research/ibn-khaldun/muqaddimah/chapter-2/part-19/</link>

      <description>&lt;!-- ## 19. A sign of the qualification for royal authority is his eager desire to acquire praiseworthy qualities, and vice versa.  --&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;Royal authority is something natural to human beings, because of its social implications.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;!-- description= &#34;As long as a nation retains its group feeling, royal authority that disappears in one branch will, of necessity, pass to some other branch of the same nation&#34; --&gt;&#xA;&lt;!-- ## 20. While a nation is savage, its royal authority extends farther. --&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;This is because a savage nation is more able to achieve superiority and full control, and to subdue other groups.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

As long as a nation retains its group feeling, the royal authority that disappears in one branch will necessarily pass to some other branch&lt;/h2&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;This is because the people obtain royal authority only after proving their forcefulness and finding other nations obedient to them.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>The Vanquished Always Want To Imitate The Victor</title>

      <description>&lt;!-- ## 22. The vanquished always want to imitate the victor in his distinctive marks, dress, etc --&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;This is because the soul always sees perfection in the person who is superior to it and to whom it is subservient. It considers him perfect, either because:&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;h2 id=&#34;24-arabs-can-gain-control-only-over-flat-territory&#34;&gt;24. Arabs can gain control only over flat territory&lt;/h2&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;This is because of their savage nature. They are people who plunder and cause damage. &lt;!-- They plunder whatever they are able to lay their hands on without having to fight or to expose themselves to danger. --&gt; They then retreat to their pastures in the desert. They do not attack or fight except in self-defense.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

Arabs can obtain royal authority only using religious coloring, such as prophecy, sainthood, or some great religious event in general&lt;/h2&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;This is because of their savagery.&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;They are the least willing of nations to subordinate themselves to each other, as they are rude, proud, ambitious, and eager to be the leader.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
