Salaam!
Welcome to the WORLD page (knowledge node) on the Salaam Matrix website!
WORLD is a crucial node of the Salaam Matrix (SMX) codex that pertains to the STAGING ENVIRONMENTS for large scale SMX deployments, as well as defines the contexts in which the user, of any scale large or small, uses the SMX and its various components.
This helps with defining the scope, intent and purpose of the SMX usage, as well as defines safe use, scope, and any referrals that may be needed as an outcome of the discoveries that the users make in the course of using the Salaam Matrix. The Salaam Matrix is often a diagnostic toolkit; and a “framework of frameworks” that engages and connects with other frameworks, professionals, real-life situations and stakeholders. This is an exercise staged in the middle of real life, and needs to be contextualized both for safety and effectiveness, and for proper gain and utilization.
The purpose of the WORLD node is not just to scope and define the SMX usage and define its safety concerns — which are deeply valid concerns — but also to focus the mind and intent of the user as well as to create exciting and relevant applications and deployments, as well as generate variations of this tool for various use cases and situations.
The SMX can be a 15-minute self-exploration exercise that you do in class or with your friends during a Self-Exploration session.
The SMX can also be deployed by a city to improve the lives of its citizens in various “Zones” and begin gaining focus on and develop programs for these Life Zones.
The potential of this tool also indicates some risks that can be borne out of the usage, when rules are not defined or a master method to determine and infer new rules is not indicated as a “permitted’ feature of the tool.
As we pondered over these safety concerns, it became clear that safety has to be woven into the modality; as well as the rules of this tool and the potential risks and how to diffuse them or deal with them and use cases need to be detailed. In tandem with this, the development of an ongoing codex that contains the ever-more defined entities, relationships, variables and features in the Salaam Matrix, is the responsible and correct thing to do.
Without this codex (introduced in The Beginner’s Guide to the Salaam Matrix), The Salaam Matrix is a flat, naive tool with Four Zones, and no scope and dimension. The activations, the dimensions, the directions of action are not defined.
With greater definition alone comes greater safety. And there is no better definition that we have understood than the WORLD aspect of the usage/deployment.
For extra caution, and to develop the matter of WORLD in a more playful and creative manner, we have created a separate safety node that goes into detail into the matter of safety, scoping, cautions, and containment as well as ecology of the model. The WORLD node will be developed somewhat more independently and then matched with safety concerns to prepare a deployment or use case. Insha’Allah & Aameen.

Note: /WORLD previously referred to languages and culture in our system. That has now been shifted to /PEOPLE node, which will bring thematic translations of the Salaam Matrix to users, as well as go in-depth with languages as the doorways to global cultures, outlooks and the idiosyncratic character, life and contribution of each group to the global society, economy, and politics.
