From Both Sides Now: Reflections On Recent Methodological Trends In The Study Of Islam, Aaron W. Hughes Prof

Abdou Filali-Ansary Occasional Paper Series

This is a set of critical reflections on the place and role of ‘theory and method’ within the context of the study of Islam, especially (but not solely) as carried out in the field of religious studies, over the course of roughly the last twenty years. The goal here is not to criticise, but instead to come at this issue of ‘theory and method’ in the study of Islam from a more mature perspective. At present in the field there is a diverse set of attempts to imagine ‘Islam’, not as a theological category that must be defended, but as …

Language Sciences And Their Impact On Dispelling The Illusion Of Difference And Contradiction In The Book Of God, Ahmed Ababneh

Jordan Journal of Applied Science-Humanities Series

This study examines the employment of language sciences to dispel the illusion of difference and contradiction in the Holy Qur’an through the use of rhetoric and grammar. Rhetoric is explored through its three branches: semantics, eloquence, and "badi" (embellishment). In semantics, techniques such as the meanings of letters, the method of delivering information and intent, implication and explicitness, and presenting assumptions as certainties or straightforward ideas are analyzed. The rhetorical device of metaphor is also considered. For the science of "badi," the study demonstrates that certain topics influence dispelling misconception, focusing on moral enhancements like exaggeration in description—not for the …

Sources Of Income For Women In Islam, Abdulfattah Al-Samman

Jordan Journal of Applied Science-Humanities Series

According to some studies, the feminization of poverty has become a common trend in Islamic societies, with rates exceeding 70%. This situation directly contradicts the essence of Sharia, which provides women with thirty sources of income and ensures their financial independence and care in all circumstances. If a woman is wealthy, Sharia safeguards her wealth and grants her the freedom to spend it as she wishes. In the Muslim community, a breadwinner is typically responsible for meeting her needs, protecting her honor, and providing food, drink, clothing, and housing according to his ability. In the absence of a breadwinner, Allah …

The Concept Of The Contravention Between Realization And Negligence: An Empirical Study, Saeed Dwaikat, Waleed Ali Ali

An-Najah University Journal for Research - B (Humanities)

This research aims to examine the concept of contravention as one of the studies of the fundamentals of jurisprudence (Islamic Fiqh) related to the denotative meaning of expressions, and to present the different viewpoints on the issue under investigation and the weighting between them as well. The researchers opted for dropping their theoretical study on the two holy Quranic verses of Repentance 80 (al –tawbah), and the Rooms: 6 (Al-hujurat), as an applied study on the subject. The two researchers followed the descriptive approach, and divided their study into three parts. The first talks about the concept of contravention, its …

Giving Zakat In Building Mosques And Schools Equipment: Comparative Study, Abdelhamid Ben Ali

An-Najah University Journal for Research - B (Humanities)

This study centered on the rule of the Islamic Sharia in the disbursement of alms giving income to the building of mosques and schools. The problem of this study stems from the point view of Islamic law, which has set alms giving in only eight categories. Moreover, if it said that alms giving is permissible in all public interest, it will cancel the benefit of determining of these alms of giving. There are disquieting questions such as: What if people fail to volunteer in mosques and schools? This study came to achieve a set of objectives, such as: The most …

(Dis)Locating Meaning: Toward A Hermeneutical Response In Education To Religiously Inspired Extremism, Farid Panjwani

Institute for Educational Development, Karachi

A key epistemological assumption in the ideologies of many of the groups termed extremist is that there is an unmediated access to a Divine Will. Driven by this assumption, and facilitated by several other factors, a range of coercive actions (including violence) to force others into submission to the perceived Will of God are seen as justified by some of these groups. A consideration of how religion is discussed in various contexts, from seminaries and schools to media and policy discourses, shows that this assumption about unmediated access to Divine Will is widely shared and that most children grow up …

Cpart Assesses Manuscript Archives In Be_I_Rut, Vc;1,~L~~N

Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship

In February, Daniel C. Peterson and E. Jan Wilson of the FARMS Center for the Preservation of Ancient Religious Texts (CPART) visited with officials in Beirut, Lebanon, and at the Vatican Apostolic Library in Rome to determine the feasibility of digitally imaging ancient religious manuscripts for inclusion in a CD-ROM database. If undertaken, the project stands to benefit not only the many communities whose religious heritages will be preserved, but also Westerners who know very little about Syriac, Christian Arabic, and Armenian theology, liturgy, philosophy, and history-much of it relevant to the study of early Christianity.
