Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Qu’est-ce qu’être musulman au XXIe siècle ? Pour certains, l’essence de l’islam serait la charia, loi qui dicte le comportement rituel et social, révélée par Dieu au Prophète et à la première communauté de fidèles. Pour d’autres, l’islam serait une spiritualité ouverte sur le monde, célébrant la diversité de l’humanité et la paix. De telles divergences ne sont pas nouvelles. Avec cet ouvrage, John Tolan raconte comment ce dernier-né des trois grands monothéismes s’est développé, non pas en autarcie mais en contact avec les traditions religieuses juives et chrétiennes, dans un mélange de cultures arabe, grecque, perse... Il analyse les fondements et les mutations de l’islam. Cette histoire longue nous montre que les fractures au sein d’un monde musulman tantôt ouvert, tantôt rigoriste, sont autant de défis posés à la possibilité d’une entente entre Orient et Occident.

Download or read book Les d buts de l Islam written by Françoise Micheau and published by Téraèdre. This book was released on 2012-09-15 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La prédication par Muhammad d'une nouvelle religion, les conquêtes arabes et la formation d'un puissant Empire islamique sont des faits bien connus et exposés dans de nombreux ouvrages. Mais cette histoire, qui paraît solidement établie, reflète la vision idéalisée d'auteurs musulmans écrivant deux siècles plus tard, soucieux avant tout de légitimer les califes abbassides et l'islam sunnite. Est-il possible d'écrire une histoire scientifique des débuts de l'Islam ? Et selon quelles voies ?

Schiller, Guillaume Tell. INTRODUCTION : LE DÉCLIN ET LA CHUTE DE L’ANCIEN MONDE ISLAMIQUE L’essor de l’islam est peut-être l’événement le plus étonnant de l’histoire de l’humanité. Issu d’une terre et d’un peuple jusque-là négligeables, l’islam s’est répandu en un siècle sur la moitié de la planète, détruisant de grands empires, renversant des religions établies de longue date, remodelant l’âme des races et construisant un monde entièrement nouveau : le monde de l’islam. Plus on examine de près cette évolution, plus elle paraît extraordinaire. Les autres grandes religions ont gagné leur chemin lentement, au prix de luttes douloureuses, et ont finalement triomphé grâce à l’aide de monarques puissants convertis à la nouvelle foi. Le christianisme a eu son Constantin, le bouddhisme son Asoka et le zoroastrisme son Cyrus, chacun prêtant à son culte choisi la force puissante de l’autorité séculière. Il n’en fut pas de même pour l’islam. Né dans un pays désertique peu peuplé par une race nomade jusque-là inconnue dans les annales humaines, l’islam s’est lancé dans sa grande aventure avec le plus faible soutien humain et contre les plus grandes difficultés matérielles. Pourtant, l’islam a triomphé avec une facilité qui semble miraculeuse, et quelques générations plus tard, le Croissant de Feu a été porté victorieux des Pyrénées à l’Himalaya et des déserts d’Asie centrale à ceux d’Afrique centrale. Ce succès extraordinaire était dû à un certain nombre de facteurs, dont les principaux étaient le caractère de la race arabe, la nature de l’enseignement de Mahomet et l’état général du monde oriental contemporain. Si peu distingués qu’aient été jusqu’alors les Arabes, ils étaient un peuple aux potentialités remarquables, qui cherchait manifestement à se réaliser. Depuis plusieurs générations, l’Arabie était en effervescence. Les Arabes avaient dépassé leur paganisme ancestral et aspiraient instinctivement à des choses meilleures. Au milieu de ce bouillonnement d’esprit et d’âme, l’Islam résonnait comme un appel de trompette. Mahomet, un Arabe parmi les Arabes, était l’incarnation même de l’âme de sa race. Prêchant un monothéisme simple et austère, exempt de tout artifice sacerdotal ou de tout ornement doctrinal élaboré, il puisait aux sources du zèle religieux toujours présent dans le cœur des Sémites. Oubliant les rivalités chroniques et les querelles de sang qui avaient consumé leurs énergies dans des luttes intestines, et soudés en une unité éclatante par le feu de leur foi nouvellement trouvée, les Arabes sortirent de leurs déserts pour conquérir la terre pour Allah, le Seul Vrai Dieu.

Download or read book The New Cambridge History of Islam Volume 1 The Formation of the Islamic World Sixth to Eleventh Centuries written by Chase F. Robinson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-11-04 with total page 1057 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume One of The New Cambridge History of Islam, which surveys the political and cultural history of Islam from its Late Antique origins until the eleventh century, brings together contributions from leading scholars in the field. The book is divided into four parts. The first provides an overview of the physical and political geography of the Late Antique Middle East. The second charts the rise of Islam and the emergence of the Islamic political order under the Umayyad and the Abbasid caliphs of the seventh, eighth and ninth centuries, followed by the dissolution of the empire in the tenth and eleventh. 'Regionalism', the overlapping histories of the empire's provinces, is the focus of Part Three, while Part Four provides a cutting-edge discussion of the sources and controversies of early Islamic history, including a survey of numismatics, archaeology and material culture.
Download or read book Le Cycle de Abd al Mu alib written by Aomar Hannouz and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2024-02-06 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to demonstrate that the accounts that feature Muḥammad’s grandfather in Ibn Isḥāq’s Sīra are the product of narrative engineering. Through a narrative sequence in which ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib is the hero, several intriguing episodes follow one another in a causal manner and lead to the birth of a future prophet. Articulated with a historical anthropology, the narrative analysis reveals that the Sīra is the heir to the royal literature of the ancient Near East. Using motifs and themes from the culture of the Fertile Crescent, the Sīra makes ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib a royal figure in the service of legitimising the Abbasid dynasty, heir par excellence to Ishmael and restorer of the Abrahamic covenant. Cet ouvrage entend démontrer que les récits qui mettent en scène le grand-père de Muḥammad dans la Sīra d’Ibn Isḥāq sont le produit d’une ingé nierie narrative. À travers une séquence narrative dont ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib est le héros, plusieurs épisodes intriguants s’enchainent d’une manière cau sale et aboutissent à la naissance d’un futur pro phète. Articulée à une anthropologie historique, l’analyse narrative révèle que la Sīra est l’héritière de la littérature royale du Proche-Orient ancien. À partir de motifs et de thématiques issus de la culture du croissant fertile, la Sīra fait de ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib une figure royale au service de la légitimation de la dynastie abbasside, héritier par excellence d’Ismaël et restaurateur de l’alliance abrahamique.

Download or read book The Great Islamic Conquests AD 632 750 written by David Nicolle and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-06-20 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few centuries in world history have had such a profound and long-lasting impact as the first hundred years of Islamic history. In this book, David Nicolle examines the extensive Islamic conquests between AD 632 and 750. These years saw the religion and culture of Islam erupt from the Arabian Peninsula and spread across an area far larger than that of the Roman Empire. The effects of this rapid expansion were to shape European affairs for centuries to come. This book examines the social and military history of the period, describing how and why the Islamic expansion was so successful.

Download or read book The Quranic Noah and the Making of the Islamic Prophet written by Carlos A. Segovia and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-09-25 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Still in its infancy because of the overly conservative views and methods assumed by the majority of scholars working in it since the mid-19th century, the field of early Islamic and quranic studies is one in which the very basic questions must nowadays be addressed with decision. Accordingly, this book tries to resituate the Qur'ān at the crossroads of the conversations of old, to which its parabiblical narratives witness, and explores how Muhammad’s image – which was apparently modelled after that of the anonymous prophet repeatedly alluded to in the Qur'ān – originally matched that of other prophets and/or charismatic figures distinctive in the late-antique sectarian milieu out of which Islam gradually emerged. Moreover, it contends that the Quranic Noah narratives provide a first-hand window into the making of Muhammad as an eschatological prophet and further examines their form, content, purpose, and sources as a means of deciphering the scribal and intertextual nature of the Qur'ān as well as the Jewish-Christian background of the messianic controversy that gave birth to the new Arab religion. The previously neglected view that Muhammad was once tentatively thought of as a new Messiah challenges our common understanding of Islam’s origins.
Download or read book Representing the Crusades written by Sandra Gorgievski and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2023-09-11 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How are the Crusades portrayed in popular culture today? Have the medieval images of chivalric and military heroes survived the eras of Orientalism and decolonization? The first of its kind, this comparative study examines representations of the Crusades in both European and Arab medieval texts and in 20th and 21st century transmedia recreations. It follows the cartography and illuminated manuscripts of the Middle Ages through modern, hybridized narratives in novels, film, comics and gaming. The shifting literary tastes, political agendas and cultural exchanges of audiences on both sides of the Mediterranean reflect their anxieties and ideals.
Download or read book L autorit religieuse et ses limites en terres d islam written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2013-03-15 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reprenant à nouveaux frais la question de l'autorité religieuse, ce livre présente différents cas d'étude en Asie centrale, à travers l'Empire ottoman, dans les Balkans et en Turquie. Sont examinés les rapports complexes qu'entretiennent, avec le pouvoir politique, cheikhs soufis, oulémas, sheikh ul-islâm, hégoumènes, ou encore clergé latin à l'époque prémoderne. Les XXe et XXIe siècles sont analysés du point de vue des transformations de l'autorité religieuse, certes fragmentée mais vigoureuse, en particulier chez les réformistes musulmans bosniaques et les Bektashis albanais, également parmi les Alévis d'Anatolie ou bien dans le soufisme féminin à Istanbul. Il apparaît que l'autorité religieuse dépasse le seul cadre des autorités traditionnelles et se heurte sans cesse à des limites théologiques, politiques, sociales ou institutionnelles. Ont contribué/contributors include: Elisabetta Borromeo, Xavier Bougarel, Rachida Chih, Nathalie Clayer, Jérôme Cler, Benoît Fliche, Anna Neubauer, Alexandre Papas, Nicolas Vatin, Gilles Veinstein. Reconsidering the question of religious authority, L'autorité religieuse et ses limites en terres d'islam offers various case studies located in Central Asia, throughout the Ottoman Empire, in the Balkans and in Turkey. The present volume discusses the complex relationships between political power and religious authorities, such as Sufi shaykhs, ulamas, sheikh ul-islâm, hegumens, and the latin clergy in the premodern period. The 20th and 21th centuries are analysed from the perspective of the transformation of religious authority - certainly fragmented but vigorous - among the Bosnian Muslim Reformists, the Albanian Bektashis, the Alevis of Anatolia, and in female Sufism in Istanbul. It appears that religious authority is not limited to traditional authorities and is continuously confronted with limits, whether theological, political, social or institutional.
