Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: De store Kaliffer De fire første kaliffer i Islam, Abu Bakr, Umar ibn al-Khattab, Uthman ibn Affan og Ali ibn Abi Talib, må Allah være tilfreds med dem alle, er kendt som ”de retledte kaliffer”. Disse fromme kaliffer var nogle af de sahabah (trosfæller), der var tættest på Profeten Muhammad , må Allahs ypperste velsignelser og fred være med ham. Deres liv er en kilde til inspiration og motivation for troende gennem alle tider. Disse kaliffer levede et simpelt liv som almindelige mennesker, skønt de alle var den øverste leder i et mægtigt imperium. Deres eksemplariske adfærd og høje moralske karakter er lysende eksempler for os. Vi står i stor gæld til dem for deres opofrelse og hengivenhed, som har hjulpet os med at bevare Koranen og sprede Islams budskab ud i verden. Profetens sagde en gang om sine nære følgere: ”Mine følgesvende er som stjerne. Hvis I følger hvilken som helst af dem, er I på den rette vej.” I lyset af denne udtalelse af Profeten, kan fortællingerne om Sahabah fungere som en vejledning og en kilde til spirituel opløftelse for os alle. Vi bør drage lære fra deres liv, så vi kan blive ledt til – og ad - den rette vej. Den vej, som glæder Allah Den Almægtige.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Rechtgeleiteten Kalifen Die ersten vier Kalifen des Islam—Abu Bakr, Omar ibn al-Khattab, Osman ibn Affan und Ali ibn Abi Talib, möge Allah mit ihnen allen zufrieden sein, sind als „die rechtgeleiteten Kalifen“ bekannt. Diese frommen Kalifen gehörten zu den engsten Sahabah (Gefährten) des Propheten Muhammad . Ihr Leben ist eine Quelle der Inspiration und Motivation für Gläubige aller Zeiten. Diese Kalifen, obwohl sie Oberhäupter eines grossen Reiches waren, lebten sehr einfach, wie gewöhnliche Menschen. Ihr beispielhaftes Verhalten und hochmoralischer Charakter sind leuchtendes Beispiel für uns. Wir stehen tief in ihrer Schuld wegen ihrer Opferbereitschaft und ihrer Hingabe, die zur Erhaltung des Korans und der Weiterverbreitung des Islams beitrug. Über die Sahabah sagte der Prophet einmal: „Meine Gefährten sind wie Sterne. Wenn ihr einem von ihnen folgt, werdet ihr auf den rechten Weg geführt.“ Angesichts dieser Aussage dienen die Geschichten von den Sahabah als Rechtleitung und Quelle spiritueller Erhebung für uns alle. Wir sollten Lehren aus ihrer Lebensführung ziehen, um auf den rechten Weg geführt zu werden—den Weg, mit dem Allah zufrieden ist.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les grands Califes Les quatre premiers califes de l’Islam, Abou Bakr, ‘Oumar ibn Al-Khattab, ‘Outhman et ‘Ali, qu’Allah soit satisfait d’eux, sont connus comme « les Califes bien guidés ». Ces pieux Califes faisaient partis des compagnons les plus proches du Prophète Mouhammad . Leur vie est une source d’inspiration et de motivation pour tous les croyants de toute époque. Ces Califes, bien qu’ils fussent à la tête d’un immense empire, avaient des vies très simples, comme des hommes ordinaires. Leur conduite exemplaire et leur haute moralité est un magnifique exemple pour nous. Nous leur sommes extrêmement reconnaissants pour leur sacrifice et leur dévouement qui ont aidé à la préservation du Coran et à la propagation de l’Islam dans le monde. Un jour, le Prophète dit à propos des compagnons : « Mes compagnons sont comme des étoiles. Si vous suivez l’un deux, vous serez guidés sur le droit chemin. » A la lumière de cette parole du Prophète, l’histoire des compagnons est un guide et une source d’élévation spirituelle pour nous tous. Nous devons tirer des leçons de leurs vies, afin que nous puissions être guidés sur le droit chemin, le chemin qui plaît à Dieu, le Tout-Puissant. Au nom de Dieu, le Tout-Miséricordieux, le Très-Miséricordieux.

Download or read book The House of Wisdom written by Jim Al-Khalili and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2011-03-31 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A myth-shattering view of the Islamic world's myriad scientific innovations and the role they played in sparking the European Renaissance. Many of the innovations that we think of as hallmarks of Western science had their roots in the Arab world of the middle ages, a period when much of Western Christendom lay in intellectual darkness. Jim al- Khalili, a leading British-Iraqi physicist, resurrects this lost chapter of history, and given current East-West tensions, his book could not be timelier. With transporting detail, al-Khalili places readers in the hothouses of the Arabic Enlightenment, shows how they led to Europe's cultural awakening, and poses the question: Why did the Islamic world enter its own dark age after such a dazzling flowering?

Download or read book That Greece Might Still be Free written by William St. Clair and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2008 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When in 1821, the Greeks rose in violent revolution against the rule of the Ottoman Turks, waves of sympathy spread across Western Europe and the United States. More than a thousand volunteers set out to fight for the cause. The Philhellenes, whether they set out to recreate the Athens of Pericles, start a new crusade, or make money out of a war, all felt that Greece had unique claim on the sympathy of the world. As Byron wrote, 'I dreamed that Greece might Still be Free'; and he died at Missolonghi trying to translate that dream into reality. William St Clair's meticulously researched and highly readable account of their aspirations and experiences was hailed as definitive when it was first published. Long out of print, it remains the standard account of the Philhellenic movement and essential reading for any students of the Greek War of Independence, Byron, and European Romanticism. Its relevance to more modern ethnic and religious conflicts is becoming increasingly appreciated by scholars worldwide. This new and revised edition includes a new Introduction by Roderick Beaton, an updated Bibliography and many new illustrations.
Download or read book Demystifying Islam written by Harris Zafar and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2023-06-14 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A welcome correction to the politically tortured conceptions of Islam so prevalent today . . . An important, original new examination of Islam.” —Kirkus Reviews Despite heightened interest in the study of the Muslim faith, for many people Islam remains shrouded in mystery and confusion. What really is Shariah law? How is a Muslim to understand Jihad? Does Islam oppose Western values such as free speech or freedom of religion? What place do women have according to Islam? Understanding that this confusion has as much to do with the behavior and words of Muslims as it does with allegations made by anti-Islam activists, Demystifying Islam offers refreshingly bold answers to provocative questions about Islam today. Author Harris Zafar—lecturer, writer, teacher and national spokesperson for Ahmadiyya Muslim Community USA—is forthright about issues where Muslims disagree, and he digs into history through vast research and scholarship to track the origins of differing beliefs. From the burqa to the role of Jesus in Islam, Demystifying Islam is an essential resource and concise guide to understanding the fastest growing religion in the world. “This book is less of a spiritual introduction than it is a cultural one, and an excellent starting point for people navigating interfaith relationships or working to improve understanding and representation in organizations and public discussion.” —Publishers Weekly “A significant contribution to the global conversation on peace, freedom, and justice in a world mystified and threatened by geopolitical and religious tensions.” —Paul Louis Metzger, author of Connecting Christ

Download or read book The Expansion of Prophetic Experience written by Abdulkarim Soroush and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2008-11-30 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abdulkarim Soroush is known primarily for his epistemological/hermeneutical theory, the “Contraction and Expansion of Religious Knowledge,” and its application to Islamic political theory and religious pluralism. While his Reason, Freedom and Democracy in Islam applies that theory to plurality and the historicity of understanding and interpretation of religion, this book captures some of his original theories about religion itself. The Expansion of Prophetic Experience treats the historicity of the Prophet Muhammad’s revelatory experience, including human and contextual influences on the genesis of the sacred Text. It presents substantial aspects of Soroush’s Neo-Rationalist hermeneutical project for an Islamic reformed theology and ethics, systematically leading Islamic reformation beyond conventional projects of piecemeal adjustments to the Shariʿah or selective re-interpretations of the Qurʾān.
Download or read book The Closing of the Muslim Mind written by Robert R. Reilly and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2023-06-20 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Islam's Intellectual Suicide—and the Threat to Us All People are shocked and frightened by the behavior coming out the Islamic world—not only because it is violent, but also because it is seemingly inexplicable. While there are many answers to the question of “what went wrong” in the Muslim world, no one has decisively answered why it went wrong. Until now. In this eye-opening new book, foreign policy expert Robert R. Reilly uncovers the root of our contemporary crisis: a pivotal struggle waged within the Muslim world nearly a millennium ago. In a heated battle over the role of reason, the side of irrationality won. The deformed theology that resulted, Reilly reveals, produced the spiritual pathology of Islamism, and a deeply dysfunctional culture. Terrorism—from 9/11, to London, Madrid, and Mumbai, to the Christmas 2009 attempted airline bombing—is the most obvious manifestation of this crisis. But Reilly shows that the pathology extends much further. The Closing of the Muslim Mind solves such puzzles as: · why peace is so elusive in the Middle East · why the Arab world stands near the bottom of every measure of human development · why scientific inquiry is nearly dead in the Islamic world · why Spain translates more books in a single year than the entire Arab world has in the past thousand years · why some people in Saudi Arabia still refuse to believe man has been to the moon · why Muslim media frequently present natural disasters like Hurricane Katrina as God’s direct retribution Delving deeper than previous polemics and simplistic analyses, The Closing of the Muslim Mind provides the answers the West has so desperately needed in confronting the Islamist crisis.
Download or read book Horse of Karbala written by D. Pinault and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-30 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Horse of Karbala is a study of Muharram rituals and interfaith relations in three locations in India: Ladakh, Darjeeling, and Hyderabad. These rituals commemorate an event of vital importance to Shia Muslims: the seventh-century death of the Imam Husain, grandson of the Prophet Muhammad, at the battlefield of Karbala in Iraq. Pinault examines three different forms of ritual commemoration of Husain's death - poetry-recital and self-flagellation in Hyderabad; stick-fighting in Darjeeling; and the 'Horse of Karbala' procession, in which a stallion representing the mount ridden in battle by Husain is made the center of a public parade in Ladakh and other Indian localities. The book looks at how publicly staged rituals serve to mediate communal relations: in Hyderabad and Darjeeling, between Muslim and Hindu populations; in Ladakh, between Muslims and Buddhists. Attention is also given to controversies within Muslim communities over issues related to Muharram such as the belief in intercession by the Karbala Martyrs on behalf of individual believers.
Download or read book A Thesaurus of English Word Roots written by Horace Gerald Danner and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2014-03-27 with total page 1007 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Horace G. Danner’s A Thesaurus of English Word Roots is a compendium of the most-used word roots of the English language. As Timothy B. Noone notes in his foreword: “Dr. Danner’s book allows you not only to build up your passive English vocabulary, resulting in word recognition knowledge, but also gives you the rudiments for developing your active English vocabulary, making it possible to infer the meaning of words with which you are not yet acquainted. Your knowledge can now expand and will do so exponentially as your awareness of the roots in English words and your corresponding ability to decode unfamiliar words grows apace. This is the beginning of a fine mental linguistic library: so enjoy!” In A Thesaurus of English Word Roots, all word roots are listed alphabetically, along with the Greek or Latin words from which they derive, together with the roots’ original meanings. If the current meaning of an individual root differs from the original meaning, that is listed in a separate column. In the examples column, the words which contain the root are then listed, starting with their prefixes, for example, dysacousia, hyperacousia. These root-starting terms then are followed by terms where the root falls behind the word, e.g., acouesthesia and acoumeter. These words are followed by words where the root falls in the middle or the end, as in such terms as bradyacusia and odynacusis.. In this manner, A Thesaurus of English Word Roots places the word in as many word families as there are elements in the word. This work will interest linguists and philologists and anyone interested in the etymological aspects of English language.
