Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’Occident a su faire sa révolution au moment opportun, en déployant sa maîtrise de la technique et du matériel, et en réinventant, en quelque sorte, la façon de considérer le présent et le futur. Il a choisi, pour se faire, de se couper du divin en créant lui-même, d’une certaine façon, ses propres divinités. Si l’euphorie des débuts a semblé lui donner raison, les crises économiques et politiques de ces dernières décennies l’ont rappelé à une réalité inaliénable que l’Orient, lui, a su maintenir, en dépit de ses faiblesses. L’Orient n’a pas oublié son histoire ni son rayonnement passé sur le reste du monde. C’est sur ses terres, et nulle par ailleurs, que les grandes Traditions religieuses monothéistes ont vu naître leurs prophètes. Ces deux mondes qui s’observent comme des chiens de faïence, ont besoin que viennent à leur secours une raison de s’écouter et de se faire mutuellement confiance pour construire un avenir serein et plein de sens. Qui mieux que l’islam peut remplir ce rôle de conciliateur ? qui mieux que l’islam peut rappeler à tout un chacun ce que vivre signifie ? qui mieux que l’islam peut montrer la voie à l’homme moderne et lui tendre la main pour s’extirper de cet abîme dans lequel il est tombé en creusant de ses mains sa propre tombe de son vivant ? Nous avons souhaité, au travers de ce petit opuscule, interroger l’histoire et comprendre comment nous avons pu en arriver à une telle situation. Nous avons surtout voulu montrer et démontrer qu’en dépit de tous les obstacles de cette vie, l’islam pouvait venir au secours de l’homme moderne.-

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chaque génération considère que celle qui a précédé était meilleure, que le monde va mal ou que la fin est proche. Le Prophète صلى الله عليه وسلم lui-même nous a informés que chaque génération qui vient est pire que la précédente (Al Boukhârî), ce qui n’empêche pas que, à chaque époque, des gens droits et intègres s’activent pour participer à la réforme de leurs concitoyens et à l’amélioration de la société dans laquelle ils vivent. Comme l’a annoncé le Prophète صلى الله عليه وسلم en ces termes : « L’islam a commencé comme quelque chose d’étrange et il redeviendra quelque chose d’étrange, alors annoncez la bonne nouvelle aux étrangers. » On lui demanda : « Qui sont ces étrangers, ô Messager d’Allah ? ». Il répondit : « Ceux qui participent à la réforme des gens lorsqu’ils deviennent corrompus. » Notre époque a, cependant, une particularité. Après la destruction de l’ordre traditionnel, voilà que notre monde se trouve en pleine mutation ; il emprunte la voie de la post-modernité sans que personne ou presque ne s’en inquiète ou sans que l’on s’interroge sur ce monde et son devenir. Les rares personnes attentives à ces changements ont des interrogations qui restent encore superficielles et n’interrogent pas fondamentalement l’origine des crises que l’on traverse. La modernité, qui se pose par nature, comme une rupture avec la tradition, engendre un système de pensée qui insuffle à l’individu le désir de conquérir son autonomie, qui le pousse à bouleverser donc les visions du monde traditionnel en faisant de la raison humaine la norme de toute chose. Dans une dynamique permanente de destruction et de rupture, cette modernité a, d’une certaine façon, dépouillé notre existence de but supérieur. Non seulement, elle nous a coupés de Dieu, mais elle tente aussi de nous couper de nous-mêmes, puisqu’elle nous pousse aujourd’hui à nier notre propre réalité biologique, comme en témoigne l’apparition de la théorie du genre par exemple.

Download or read book An Introduction to Islamic Cosmological Doctrines written by Seyyed Hossein Nasr and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1993-07-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the only book to deal with classical Islamic cosmology as it was formulated by the Ikhwan al-S'afa al Biruni and Ibn Sina during the tenth and eleventh centuries. These figures influenced all the later centuries of Islamic history and in fact created the cosmological framework within which all later scientific activity in the Islamic world was carried out--the enduring image of the cosmos within which Muslims have lived during the past millennium. Nasr writes from within the Islamic tradition and demonstrates how, based on the teachings of the Quran and the Prophet, the figures treated in this work integrated elements drawn from various ancient schools of philosophy and the sciences. This book is unique in its treatment of classical Islamic cosmology as seen from within the Islamic world-view and provides a key for understanding of traditional Islamic thought.

Download or read book Islam written by Richard W. Bulliet and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard Bulliet's timely account provides the essential background for understanding the contemporary resurgence of Muslim activism around the globe. Why, asks Bulliet, did Islam become so rooted in the social structure of the Middle East and North Africa, as well as in those parts of Asia and Africa to which it spread after the tenth century? In assessing the historical evolution of Islamic society, Bulliet abandons the historian's typical habit of viewing Islamic history "from the center", that is, focusing on the rise and fall of imperial dynasties. Instead, he examines the question of how and why Islam became - and continues to be - so rooted in the social structure of the vast majority of people who lived far from the political center and did not see the caliphate as essential in their lives. Focusing on Iran, and especially the cities of Isfahan, Gorgan, and Nishapur, Bulliet examines a wide range of issues, including religious conversion; migration and demographic trends; the changing functions and fortunes of cities and urban life; and the roots and meaning of religious authority. The origins of today's resurgence, notes Bulliet, are located in the eleventh century. "The nature of Islamic religious authority and the source of its profound impact upon the lives of Muslims - the Muslims of yesterday, of today, and of tomorrow - cannot be grasped without comprehending the historical evolution of Islamic society", he writes. "Nor can such a comprehension be gained from a cursory perusal of the central narrative of Islam. The view from the edge is needed, because, in truth the edge ultimately creates the center".

Download or read book Karl Marx Man and Fighter RLE Marxism written by Boris Nicolaievsky and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-04-24 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strife has raged about Karl Marx for decades, and never had it been so embittered as at the time of this book’s first publication, 1936. Marx had impressed his image on the time as not other had done. To some he was – and still is – a fiend, the arch-enemy of human civilisation, and the prince of chaos, while to others he is a far-seeing and beloved leader, guiding the human race towards a brighter future. The arena in which Marx was fought about in 1936 was in the factories, in the parliaments and at the barricades. In both camps, the bourgeois and the socialist, Marx was first of all, if not exclusively, the revolutionary. This book sets out to describe the life of Marx the fighter.

Download or read book Spaces and Identities in Border Regions written by Christian Wille and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2015-11-30 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spatial and identity research operates with differentiations and relations. These are particularly useful heuristic tools when examining border regions where social and geopolitical demarcations diverge. Applying this approach, the authors of this volume investigate spatial and identity constructions in cross-border contexts as they appear in everyday, institutional and media practices. The results are discussed with a keen eye for obliquely aligned spaces and identities and relinked to governmental issues of normalization and subjectivation. The studies base upon empirical surveys conducted in Germany, France, Belgium and Luxembourg.

Download or read book Blue White Red written by Alain Mabanckou and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2013-02-21 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Mabanckou dazzles with technical dexterity and emotional depth” in his debut novel, winner of the Grand Prix Littéraire de l’Afrique Noire (Publishers Weekly, starred review). This tale of wild adventure reveals the dashed hopes of Africans living between worlds. When Moki returns to his village from France wearing designer clothes and affecting all the manners of a Frenchman, Massala-Massala, who lives the life of a humble peanut farmer after giving up his studies, begins to dream of following in Moki’s footsteps. Together, the two take wing for Paris, where Massala-Massala finds himself a part of an underworld of out-of-work undocumented immigrants. After a botched attempt to sell metro passes purchased with a stolen checkbook, he winds up in jail and is deported. Blue White Red is a novel of postcolonial Africa where young people born into poverty dream of making it big in the cities of their former colonial masters. Alain Mabanckou’s searing commentary on the lives of Africans in France is cut with the parody of African villagers who boast of a son in the country of Digol. Praise for Alain Mabanckou and Blue White Red “Mabanckou counts as one of the most successful voices of young African literature.” —Internationales Literaturfestival Berlin “The African Beckett.” —The Economist “Blue White Red stands at the beginning of the author’s remarkable and multifaceted career as a novelist, essayist and poet . . . this debut novel shows much of his style and substance in remarkable ways . . . Dundy’s translation is excellent.” —Africa Book Club “Mabanckou’s provocative novel probes the many facets of the ‘migration adventure.’” —Booklist

Download or read book Divine Names on the Spot written by Fabio Porzia and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Ancient Greek and Semitic languages resorted to a large range of words to name the divine. Gods and goddesses were called by a variety of names and combinations of onomastic attributes. This broad lexicon of names is characterised by plurality and a tendency to build on different sequences of names; therefore, the Mapping Ancient Polytheisms project focuses on the process of naming the divine in order to better understand the ancient divine in terms of a plurality in the making. A fundamental rule for reading ancient divine names is to grasp them in their context - time and place, a ritual, the form of the discourse, a cultural milieu...: a deity is usually named according to a specific situation. From Artemis Eulochia to al-Lat, al-'Uzza and Manat, from Melqart to "my rock" in the biblical book of Psalms, this volume journeys between the sanctuary on Mount Gerizim and late antique magical practices, revisiting rituals, hymnic poetry, oaths of orators and philosophical prayers. While targeting different names in different contexts, the contributors draft theoretical propositions towards a dynamic approach of naming the divine in antiquity.'
