Book excerpt: Most Islamic scholars agree that Sura 66 of the Holy Quran alludes to the most controversial events in the alleged history of Prophet Muhammad. These events, however, are prophecies fulfilled in the life of the Messiah, the Honorable Louis Farrakhan. This book reveals the truth interpretation of Sura 66. As such, it shows that the grave circumstances described in this Sura are borne of the struggle within the Messiah¿s family, the Believing Community and the common people to see Him in His proper light. Why is this so? The Messiah evolves into Divine Power while among the people so that everyone alive during His tenure has the basis for coming to terms with His identity.This book shows that the essence of Sura 66 involves the Messiah¿s obedience to Divine Commands; and the disobedience, on the part of others, to follow the moral precepts that Allah established through the Holy Quran¿specifically as it relates to upholding oaths, and refraining from secret counsels and slander. This book further explains how the Messiah¿s unifying mission involves forming alliances and relationships with other ¿peoples¿ of the Earth, especially among the Original People. Some of these alliances occur through marriage. Why? In highly civilized societies, marriage unites families to common destinies. Marriage demonstrates a high level of commitment to alliances of great consequence, meaning such marriages advance civilization. This book also describes how the Messiah¿s polygamous marriage advances Allah¿s Will.
Download or read book Elite Malay Polygamy written by Miriam Koktvedgaard Zeitzen and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2018-09-14 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elite Malay women’s polygamy narratives are multiple and varied, and their sentiments regarding the practice are conflicted, as they are often torn between personal and religious convictions. This volume explores the ways in which this increasingly prominent practice impacts Malay gender relations. As Muslims, elite Malay women may be forced to accept polygamy, but they mostly condemn it as women and wives, as it forces them to manage their lives and loves under the “threat” of polygamy from a husband able to marry another woman without their knowledge or consent; a husband that is married but available.

Download or read book Islam Revealed written by Anis Shorrosh and published by Thomas Nelson Publishers. This book was released on 1988 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thumb through any newspaper, listen to any newscast, and the terms "Islamic Al Jihad" or "Shi'ite Muslims" will inevitably be linked with bombings, hijackings, and other terrorist acts. What do you know about this religion that boasts "the greatest joy is to kill and be killed for Allah"? In Islam Revealed, Dr. Anis Shorrosh explains the driving force behind the fanatical, as well as the moderate and conservative sects of Islam. Drawing on his experience as a Palestinian-born Arab Christian and years of research and study, Dr. Shorrosh takes a hard look at an ever-growing religion that currently numbers 900 million members. Through comparisons of Islam's Quran and the Hebrew-Christian Bible, Dr. Shorrosh outlines the contradictions and inaccuracies that form the basis for the Muslims' beliefs, and contrasts the turbulent life of Muhammad with the life of Jesus. In light of recent terrorist activities in America and the continuing tensions in the Middle East, Islam Revealed is a timely reference to the belief system of one in five people on earth.

Download or read book Polygamy and Law in Contemporary Saudi Arabia written by Maha A. Z. Yamani and published by ISBS. This book was released on 2008 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The topic of polygamy in Islamic countries is generally perceived by outsiders as something linked to harems and Hollywood-style foreign intrigues. The practice is frequently viewed through sexual connotations and male power versus female powerlessness. This book sheds light on the often misunderstood polygamous situation in modern Saudi Arabia. Through a unique series of local interviews with both men and women involved in polygamy, both maritally and professionally, the author invites the reader into the homes and personal lives of the people directly affected. The result is a moving, candid examination of the frame of mind, impulses, incentives, reasons, and circumstances that drive individuals towards polygamy, as well as the social, legal, economic, and emotional consequences that inevitably follow. The book also examines the historical origins of Islamic polygamy in Mecca and Medina, as well as the legal situation in Saudi Arabia today. The author argues that a combination of gender differences created through local laws and public policy decisions, the revival of customary tribal practices, and the pressures created by the sudden materialism of modern life have all led towards a misapplication of the original Islamic legal essence of the practice, and a re-adaptation of the laws regulating it.
Download or read book Female Stereotypes in Religious Traditions written by Ria Kloppenborg and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-09-24 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains a collection of studies describing and analyzing stereotypes of women in the religions of Ancient Israel and Mesopotamia, and in Zoroastrianism, Judaism, Medieval Christianity, Islam, Indian Sufism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Tibetan religions, and modern Neopaganism. In all these traditions the stereotypes are based on generalizations, which are socially, culturally or religiously legitimized, and which seem to have a lasting influence on society's conceptions of women. They represent oversimplified opinions, which are, however, regularly challenged by the women who are affected by them. In all traditions the stereotypes are ambiguous, either because women have challenged their validity, or because historical developments in society have reshaped them. They influence public opinion by emphasizing dominant views, as a strategy to restrain women and to keep them controlled by the rules and morals of a male-dominated society.

Download or read book The Polygamy Question written by Janet Bennion and published by University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The practice of polygamy occupies a unique place in North American history and has had a profound effect on its legal and social development. The Polygamy Question explores the ways in which indigenous and immigrant polygamy have shaped the lives of individuals, communities, and the broader societies that have engaged with it. The book also considers how polygamy challenges our traditional notions of gender and marriage and how it might be effectively regulated to comport with contemporary notions of justice. The contributors to this volume—scholars of law, anthropology, sociology, political science, economics, and religious studies—disentangle diverse forms of polygamy and polyamory practiced among a range of religious and national backgrounds including Mormon and Muslim. They chart the harms and benefits these models have on practicing women, children, and men, whether they are independent families or members of coherent religious groups. Contributors also address the complexities of evaluating this form of marriage and the ethical and legal issues surrounding regulation of the practice, including the pros and cons of legalization. Plural marriage is the next frontier of North American marriage law and possibly the next civil rights battlefield. Students and scholars interested in polygamy, marriage, and family will find much of interest in The Polygamy Question. Contributors include Kerry Abrams, Martha Bailey, Lori Beaman, Janet Bennion, Jonathan Cowden, Shoshana Grossbard, Melanie Heath, Debra Majeed, Rose McDermott, Sarah Song, and Maura Irene Strassberg.
