Book excerpt: This book is about the monumental achievements of one of the most open-minded, tolerant, peace-loving theologians, scholars and philanthropists of our time, namely His Eminence Sayyid Hussain Isma eel al-Sadr. When you read this book, you will find out that this compliment is not merely a courtesy but an under-statement: He deserves much more. A "balancing theory" is discussed throughout this book, one advocating that all humans on our planet are members of one and the same family, that in all reality, if we open our hearts and minds, walls that separate us from each other will crumble, we will then be closer to each other as family members should be, and we shall live a happier and more fulfilled life, the one intended for us by the Creator of life itself.

The texts offer a lively picture of Istanbul and Cairo in the early years of the 20th century, the repressive regime of Sultan Abdulhamid II and the heady days of the Young Turk revolution of July 1908.

Download or read book Songs of Wisdom and Circles of Dance written by Tazim R. Kassam and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1995-08-17 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coursing though cultures and time, tuneful verse has given moving expression to the human longing for the divine. As poetry strung on sweet melodies, hymns bear testimony to the religious life of the devout, and to the inspiring teachings of minstrels and saints. Such is the ginan tradition of the Satpanth Isma'ilis, Indian successors of the Fatand Nizari Isma'ili sect of the Shi'ah Muslims. Traditionally recited during daily ritual prayers, ginans have been revered for generations among the Satpanth Isma'ilis as sacred compositions. This work offers for the first time an extensive translation of hymns attributed to the Isma'ili saint-composer, Pir Shams (ca. 13th century), who is at once one of the most pivotal and yet most enigmatic figures of this literary tradition. It also presents a cogent historical reconstruction of the beginnings of Satpanth Isma'ilism--a phase of Isma'ili history that has spanned over eight centuries.
