Warfare And Welcome: Practicality And Qur’Ānic Hierarchy In Ibāḍī Muslims’ Jurisprudential Rulings On Music, Bradford J. Garvey

Yale Journal of Music & Religion

While much ink has been spilled by musicologists on the legal standing of music in Islamic jurisprudential scholarship, few scholars have offered as comprehensive a view as Lois Ibsen Al-Faruqi. Thirty-five years after her major works on this issue, this article seeks to reassess her model of musical legitimacy within Muslim scholarship. Al-Faruqi places Qur’ānic recitation at the apex of a unidirectional continuum of sound art, with genres less similar to the recitation of the Qur’ān located progressively further away from it. Based on fieldwork in the Sultanate of Oman in 2015-17 and engaging with recent reinvigorations on the anthropological …

Muslims’ Religious Freedom And Religiosity: Measurement And Impact, Hannah M. Ridge

Political Science Faculty Books and Book Chapters

Multiple measures of religious freedom and states’ regulation of religion are at work in sociology of religion. These scales apply one score to a country or to a subset of its policies. A uniform state score conceals the internal religious diversity and the heterogeneous experiences of religious freedom that can result. These, in turn, encourage ecological fallacies and mask the disparate impact that religious freedom for one’s own community and for other groups can have on individuals’ preferences and decisions. To demonstrate the value of measuring and studying religious freedom at the individual level, this study applies individual-level assessments of …

Damnatio Memoriae: On Deleting The East From Western History, Koert Debeuf

New England Journal of Public Policy

The story we read in books about the Renaissance tells us that Petrarch and Poggio rediscovered the books of antiquity that had been copied for centuries in medieval abbeys. The re-introduction of Greek science and philosophy, however, began in the twelfth century but occurred mainly in the thirteenth century. These works were first translated into Syriac and Arabic in the eighth and ninth centuries and stored in the House of Wisdom in Baghdad. There they were read, used, and commented on by Arab philosophers, of whom the most famous was Averroes (1126–1198), who lived in Cordoba. The translation of his …

Verification And Explanation Of The Prophetic Traditions (Hadiths) Of Kindness To Animals, Helmi Abed El- Hadi

Journal of the Arab American University مجلة الجامعة العربية الامريكية للبحوث

This research includes a collection of Hadiths (prophetic traditions) mentioned by Prophet Mohammad (Peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), in which he urged Muslims to deal kindly with the animals when Muslims use these animals for all purposes like riding, loading milking and even slaughtering them.

Islamic Labeled Firms: Revisiting Dow Jones Measure Of Compliance, Ahmed Elnahas, Ghada Ismail, Rwan El-Khatib, M. Kabir Hassan

Economics and Finance Faculty Publications

Billions of dollars, across 131 countries, are invested in Islamic law‐compliant funds that are often promoted as consistent with the spirit and overall objectives of Islam (Maqasid Al‐Sharia), thereby indicating they are more socially responsible, less risky, and less prone to failure. The empirical results of this study indicate that Shariah‐compliant firms identified by the Dow Jones do not have higher corporate social responsibility (CSR) scores, lower risk, or lower likelihood of failure than non‐compliant firms. We address endogeneity using the instrumental variable (IV) approach and selection bias using propensity score matching (PSM). Our results are similar when using the …

The persuasive act can be used in many ways by influencing the thoughts and behavior of people or in advertisement which sell products or services by way of convincing people to buy certain products or services.

State Regulation Of Religion: The Effect Of Religious Freedom On Muslims' Religiosity, Hannah M. Ridge

Political Science Faculty Articles and Research

Substantial scholarship argues that regulation of religion suppresses religiosity in a community by reducing individuals’ satisfaction with their religious experience. To date this research has assumed that regulations are enforced on and affect religious communities uniformly. It has also focused heavily on Western Christian populations and aggregated national data. We suggest that state regulation of religious communities and behaviours impacts citizens differently based on their affiliation. Using individual-level assessments of freedom and religiosity from Muslim-majority countries, we show that, at the individual level, restricting freedom suppresses religious belief and behaviour. Restrictions on religious minorities, however, can increase religiosity. As such, …

(التعرف الآلي على الأسماء المهملة و الكنى المستخرجة (أسانيد الحديث نموذجا, Omar Koussa, Moustafa Al-Hajj, Amani Sabra

Al Jinan الجنان

لما كان الحديث النبوي الشريف هو مصدر التشريع الثاني عند المسلمين و هو الترجمة العملية للقرآن الكريم, كان لا بد من التحقق من صحة الأحاديث و ضعفها. و قد اعتمد المحدثون و خاصة أهل الجرح و التعديل منهم على التحقق من أحوال رواة اللأحاديث للحكم عليها, و أصلوا أصولا لذلك ذكرها ابن الصلاح في مقدمته (1), و من أهمها معرفة أحوال الرجال او الرواة. و معرفة الرجال منوطة بمعرفة أسمائهم, و بعد عملنا السابق المرتبط (2) باستخراج أسماء الرجال, لاحظنا وجود أسماء مهملة (مثل سفيان من دون تحديد), و كنى (مثل حدثني أبي), بما يضفي الغموض على الراوي , ولا …

Moreover, he does not show any probability for continual Qiraa’at. He works on directing those Qiraa’at in terms of linguistics, grammatically, eloquently, and jurisprudentially. A summarized study comes in this book to focus on preponderant opinions in the term of meanings with no opinions offering. Finally, researchers study his …

إلى الذين يوظفون أنفسهم في أموال الفقراء واليتامى, Mahmoud Ismaiil

Al Jinan الجنان

يهدف هذا البحث إلى تنبيه الذين يتعاملون بجمع الزكاة وإيصالها إلى مستحقيها ، بأن عليهم الالتزام بالحكم الشرعي بدقة متناهية، حيث إن الزكاة فريضة تولى الله تعالى بيان مصارفها المستحقين لها؛ ومن ضمنهم مصرف العاملين عليها، كما جاءت النصوص النبوية تقوّم وتضبط تصرفات العاملين في هذا الحقل من حيث تعيينهم وتعيين مهامهم، كما أنها تحدد صفة كل عامل في أي عمل يقوم به، وهل هو متبرع، أم موظف، أم وكيل عن الدافع، أم عن مستحق الزكاة؛فلا تترك الحبل على غاربه لكل من أراد أن ينصب نفسه خصما وحكما في أموال الزكاة فيأخذها بغير وجه حق لشبهة عنت له أو لطمع …

حكم إرضاع الكبير في الشريعة الإسلامية, د. رياض مشعل عبد

Midad AL-Adab Refereed Quarterly Journal

الحمد الله رب العالمين والصلاة والسلام على سيدنا محمد وعلى آله وأصحابه وأتباعه ومن تبعهم بإحسان إلى يوم الدين . وبعد : هنالك بعض المسائل الفقهية الخلافية فيها إشكال وتحتاج إلى مزيد من البحث والبيان والإيضاح لرفع ذلك الإشكال ، لأن بعض هذه المسائل الخلافية والأقوال الشاذة تحدث فتنة بين عامة الناس ، لأنها غريبة عليهم ولا يستطيعون أن يفهموا المراد منها ، فتصدهم عن دينهم وتصرفهم عما ينفعهم . ومسألة إرضاع الكبير خير مثال على ما أقول ، فقد تابعت منذ مدة الكلام المثار حول حديث إرضاع الكبير في بعض القنوات الفضائية وتعجبت وقتها من جرأة المكذبين والطاعنين والمستهزئين …
