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.

Student Works (2020-2029)

Salah tafsir teks al-Quran adalah antara isu penting yang dibincangkan dalam pengajian tafsir al-Quran. Sesuai dengan perkembangan zaman yang turut menyaksikan kompleksnya taakulan manusia, rekonstruksi pemahaman al-Quran berlangsung khususnya dalam bidang pentafsiran al-Quran yang dipengaruhi oleh ideologi tertentu dan mengutamakan pertimbangan akal semata-mata akibat meninggalkan peranan wahyu itu sendiri.

Inclusion Of Muslim Perspectives In The International Baccalaureate Economics And Business Curriculum, Farida Salim

Journal of Educational Technology Development and Exchange (JETDE)

The Fall And Rise Of Bengali Muslim Conciousness: Conceptualising The Identity Of The Bangla Universal, Habib Khan

Theses and Dissertations

The emergence of modern-nation states saw the end of the empirical era of exploitation and exercise of inherent racist tendencies towards the 'other'. However, the effect of that colonial system is still ever-present in the creation and governance of these newly independent states. While every new state aims to be 'modern', they adopt the international legal framework of the West as their own - a system they had initially wanted to escape. The concept of Muslim universality in the form of the ummah should have freed Pakistan from the shackles of its former colonial masters. Instead, this phenomenon was replaced …

The World Of Ibn Taymiyya: An Analysis Of The Historical Context Of Ibn Taymiyya’S Anti-Mongol Fatwas, Jarod Devoogd

Theses and Dissertations

Studies into Ibn Taymiyya’s fatwas against the Mongols are relatively new, despite the increasing frequency with which they are cited by modern extremist groups. Detailed explorations into the Mamluk-Ilkhanid War of the late thirteenth and early fourteenth century are also relatively new. Ibn Taymiyya, the early Mamluk Sultanate, and the Mamluk-Ilkhanid War are intricately connected, yet they are often not studied in synthesis. Generally, works that give overviews of the history of this period lack intricate details, studies dedicated to in-depth analysis of specific events are not focused on a connection to Ibn Taymiyya’s writings, and biographies on Ibn Taymiyya …

حقيقة الاستحسان عند الحنفية The Reality Of The Istihsan According To Al Hanafia School, Harith Mohammed Issa

Jordan Journal of Islamic Studies

Al Hanafia School used the Istihsan principle until they became famous for it, where Abu Hanifa was incomparable with it. Istihsan in all its forms is nothing but an alteration of a general rule, texts, an analogy, or an extracted origin for legal evidence that requires modification. This act of Istihsan was not an opinion, preference, self-distance, or derogation of legal evidence, rather the Istihsan was based on evidence that may be a hidden analogy, text, consensus, necessity, custom, interest, or a general jurisprudential rule.
