دلالة أشبه ومشتقاتها في كتاب الجرح والتعديل لابن أبي حاتم Similar Sign And Its Derivatives In The Book Al-Jarh And Al-Ta’Dil By Ibn Abi Hatim, Muhammad Aziz Al-Azmi

Jordan Journal of Islamic Studies

قمت بحصر لفظة "أشبه ومشتقاتها عند ابن أبي حاتم في كتابه الجرح والتعديل" فبلغت (73) مرة على الإجمال. وبالتفصيل جاء قوله "أشبه" (35) مرة، وكانت دلالتها مختلفة، حيث استعملت في (10) مواضع للدلالة على العبادة والعلم، و(4) للدلالة على الضعف، و(21) للدلالة على الترجيح والتقوية. وأما قوله "يشبه" فجاءت (32) مرة فهي كأشبه في اختلاف استعمالها، فجاء استعمالها (11) للدلالة على التشبه في العبادة والكيس والمعرفة والسمت، و(12) للدلالة على الضعف، و(9) للدلالة على الترجيح والتقوية. وأما قوله "تشبه" فجاءت (3) مرات ودلالتها على الضعف. وقوله "شِبه الريح" في (3) مرات: مرتان بهذا اللفظ، ومرة بلفظ "منزلة الريح"، ودلالتها أنها …

ملخص

يتناول هذا البحث موضوع خلافة الإنسان والتحولات الحضارية من خلال الحفر في مسار الحضارة التي أنبأتنا بالصورة التي تكفّل فيها الإنسان بتحمّل الأمانة الكبرى، وبمستويات النجاح وحدود الانتكاس، فإلى أي مدى يمكن للإنسان أن يتجاوز صعوبة الواقع الحضاري ويعيد مهمّة الخلافة إلى مسارها الذي يُمكّن الإنسان من تحقيق مراد الخالق من المخلوق؟

والبحث أصيل في بابه إذ هو محاولة جادة للإجابة عن سؤال الاستخلاف، والتحولات الحضارية التي تشرح مسار الوظيفة المناطة بعهدة الإنسان والتي …

Jordan Journal of Islamic Studies

ملخص

تناولت هذه الدراسة مسألة القراءة التفسيرية وأثرها في توجيه القراءات، فبيّنت تعريف القراءة التفسيرية، وعالجت مفهوم الترجيح بين القراءات، ووضّحت أنّ الترجيح إنّما هو بين توجيه القراءات وليس معناه ردّ شيء منها، وخلصت الدراسة إلى أنّ القراءة التفسيرية هي كل قراءة خالفت رسم المصحف الإمام أفادت معنى في التفسير، وأنّ الترجيح بين القراءات هو ترجيح بين التوجيهين لا بين القراءتين المتواترتين فكلاهما ثابت ثبوتاً قطعياً، وأنّ القراءة التفسيرية قد تكون المعتمد الذي رجّح فيه العلماء توجيه قراءة تفسيرية على أخرى.

"Nothing But The Son Of A Black Woman": Anti-Blackness, Gender Dynamics, And Muslim Communities Of Memphis, Zari Muhammad May 2022

"Nothing But The Son Of A Black Woman": Anti-Blackness, Gender Dynamics, And Muslim Communities Of Memphis, Zari Muhammad

Senior Honors Papers / Undergraduate Theses

The Nation of Islam (NOI) is largely responsible for the growth of Islam in America during the 20th century. However, they are often isolated from their Muslim counterparts, being framed as an “inauthentic” Islamic school of thought by Sunni Muslim communities. This is due in part to the different practices of Islam, but also a result of American systemic anti-Blackness. Furthermore, Black Muslim women face numerous problems in the NOI , as the internal gender dynamics are based on white nuclear family systems that lead to further gendered ostracization within these same communities. This is exemplified in Memphis, Tennessee, where …


The Rise Of Neo-Fascist Populism And Islamophobia In The West, Mohamed Tawfiq Said Tabib May 2022

The Rise Of Neo-Fascist Populism And Islamophobia In The West, Mohamed Tawfiq Said Tabib

Dissertations and Theses

Trumpism can be defined as racist right-wing neo-fascist populism and nativism combined with a cult of personality. There is very little distinction between neo-fascists, the alt-right, and far-right groups. All can be identified by their socio-political philosophy and vehement beliefs of racial supremacy, ultranationalism, populism, xenophobia, nativism, and anti-immigrant sentiment, as well as being opposed to liberal Western democracy and its values. This thesis explores why there has been a popular international resurgence of far-right neo-fascist movements throughout the European Union and the United States and examines the impact on inter-group social and political relations with those of different racial …

Theses and Dissertations

The research engages in an exploration of human rights in Islam. Human rights issues are then contrasted with international law positions. The data gotten is then used for investigating women’s human rights issues in Shariʾa penal tradition regarding zinā (adultery) in Nigeria.

These events raised concerns about Shariʾa penal traditions’ legality and relationship with other legal traditions operational in Nigeria, a secular political space. …


Islamic Bioethics: National Regulations And Guidelines Of Human Stem Cell Research In The Muslim World, Azza Mahmoud May 2022

Islamic Bioethics: National Regulations And Guidelines Of Human Stem Cell Research In The Muslim World, Azza Mahmoud

International Studies (MA) Theses

The utilization of human stem cells emerged recently in the Muslim world as one of the essential valuable areas of medicine for their vital role in developing regenerative medicine and treating chronic and incurable diseases. Existing studies indicate that most human stem cell researchers rely on varying schools of thought in Islamic law or on an individual base to define legitimate practices. From a policy perspective, the different Islamic religious decrees do not constitute a unified legal framework to promote essential international collaborations. The existing literature exhibits a limitation in comprehensive studies on human stem cell research (HSCR) in the …

“Whenever We Crossed A Mountain / On This Earth, Yet Another One Appeared”: Circumstantial Poetry In ʿAbd Al-Ghanī Al-Nābulusī’S (D. 1143/1731) Travelogues, Tom J. Abi Samra Apr 2022

“Whenever We Crossed A Mountain / On This Earth, Yet Another One Appeared”: Circumstantial Poetry In ʿAbd Al-Ghanī Al-Nābulusī’S (D. 1143/1731) Travelogues, Tom J. Abi Samra

Comparative Literature M.A. Essays

This essay identifies an early modern aesthetic that mobilizes the mundane to make a point about the world or the grandiose. Through a close reading of the poetry in the travelogues of the 17th-century Ottoman Damascene scholar ʿAbd al-Ghanī al-Nābulusī (d. 1143/1731), this essay identifies, theorizes, and historicizes early modern Arabic circumstantial verse—what the 19th-century French poet Stéphane Mallarmé calls vers de circonstance. By drawing on Mikhail Bakhtin’s concept of the “chronotope,” this essay shows how the poetry in Nābulusī’s travelogues fits within, and sometimes advances, their linear narrative. If poetry is expected to transcend the chronotope in which …

From City State To Medina: The Timeless Wisdom Of Aristotle’S Polis, Spencer Koehl Apr 2022

From City State To Medina: The Timeless Wisdom Of Aristotle’S Polis, Spencer Koehl

Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection

Many philosophers and thinkers have considered the idea of community and what makes it strong, beneficial, and enduring. The Ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle is no exception. Aristotle wrote thoroughly on the nature of the ideal community, which he observed in Greek city-states. Called a “polis”, this ideal community, according to Aristotle, is one that provides for its residents to live a good life above all else. In doing so, it usually is small enough that all its residents share a similar lived experience while being big enough to be self-sufficient. While Aristotle wrote on this subject over 2000 years ago, …


Digital Islam And Muslim Millennials: How Social Media Influencers Reimagine Religious Authority And Islamic Practices, Bouziane Zaid, Jana Fedtke, Don Donghee Shin, Abdelmalek El Kadoussi, Mohammed Ibahrine Apr 2022

Digital Islam And Muslim Millennials: How Social Media Influencers Reimagine Religious Authority And Islamic Practices, Bouziane Zaid, Jana Fedtke, Don Donghee Shin, Abdelmalek El Kadoussi, Mohammed Ibahrine

All Works

Digital platforms have empowered individuals and communities to re-negotiate long-established notions of religion and authority. A new generation of social media influencers has recently emerged in the Muslim world. They are western-educated, unique storytellers, and savvy in digital media production. This raises new questions on the future of Islam in the context of emerging challenges, such as the openness of technology and the often-perceived closedness of religious and cultural systems within Muslim societies. This paper uses a multiple case research design to examine the roles of social media influencers in reimagining Islam and reshaping spiritual beliefs and religious practices among …

The Eurasia-Pacific is a dynamic region of rapid economic growth, cultural awareness, natural resource exploration, and military buildup.
