Islamic Rulings On Warfare, Sherifa D. Zuhur Dr., Youssef H. Aboul-Enein Ltcdr

Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies

The global war on terror (GWOT) and the battles with specific Islamist groups is, to some degree, a war of ideas. With a better understanding of Islamic concepts of war, peace, and Muslim relations with non-Muslims, those fighting the GWOT may gain support and increase their efficacy. The authors explain the principles of jihad and war and their conduct as found in key Islamic texts, the controversies that have emerged from the Quranic verses of war and peace, and the conflict between liberal or moderate Islamic voices and the extremists on matters such as the definition of combatants, treatment of …

Without Locke Or Lenin* The Impact Of Resurgent Islam On International Politics/ Mohamad Abu Bakar, Mohamad Abu Bakar

Archival Material (2000s)

Contemporary international politics is essentially the function of the interaction between the West and its global strategic environment. The Western mind always has been the directing force. The Lockean idea of the Commonwealth with its inherent war and peace attributes, and the Leninist conception of the world with its emphasis on capitalism and class conflict, are but different manifestations of the Western post-Enlightenment universalism.1 Colonialism and imperialism were mainly European preoccupations, and even with the best of intentions, as encapsulated in the Kipling's version of the "white man's burden", European nations had emerged as predatory states whose activities led to …

Islamic Revival Among Second-Generation Arab-American Muslims: The American Experience And Globalization Intersect, Louise Cainkar

Social and Cultural Sciences Faculty Research and Publications

This article examines the chain of events that facilitated an Islamic revival among second-generation Arab-American Muslims. Based upon research in metropolitan Chicago, it argues against trends in the literature that described Western-born Muslims as foreigners, immigrants or, worse, anti-Western. Similarly, it argues against setting their religious experiences solely in a domestic context. The article begins by documenting the lack of religious institutions and practices among immigrant Arab Muslims before the 1990s and the limited religious socialization of their American-born children. These conditions emerged in part from secular trends in the immigrants' homelands. By the 1990s, a period of global Islamic …

Editor's Introduction: “In The Hope That Something Will Stick”: Changing Explanations For The Book Of Mormon, Daniel C. Peterson

Review of Books on the Book of Mormon 1989–2011

A slightly different version of this essay was first presented at the 2002 conference of the Foundation for Apologetic Information and Research (FAIR; see www.fair-lds.org), in Provo, Utah. It represents a sketch for what I hope will eventually become a more detailed study of the varying counterexplanations that have been offered for the Book of Mormon.

Forfeiting Liberty: A Collective Sense Of Vulnerability And The Need For Proactive Protection After 9/11, Ally Hack

Cardozo Public Law, Policy & Ethics Journal

The note argues that the post-9/11 era has seen a significant erosion of civil liberties, particularly for Arab-Americans and Muslims, drawing parallels to historical episodes of national fear and paranoia, such as Japanese internment during World War II and McCarthyism. It contends that the U.S. response to the attacks, including the expansion of surveillance and detention powers under the USA PATRIOT Act, threatens First Amendment rights and democratic values. The analysis emphasizes the importance of protecting civil liberties and maintaining open debate, even during times of crisis, to ensure a stable and just society.
