    The water resources structures on the Syrian and Egyptian pilgrim routes to Makka and Medinah

    AI-Hajj in Arabic means the pilgrimage to MAKKA. This was an ancient rite which was recognised a long time before the rise of Islam. According to the holy Quran and Islamic tradi tion, AI-Haj j goes back to the time of the prophet Ibrahim. Thus MAKKA was a focus for worship but it was also a commercial centre and a way station/stopping place on the ancient trade caravan road between south western -Arabia and Bilad AI-Sham,' now Syria. In part the inhabitants of MAKKA practised this trade because their environment was not suitable for other alternative economic activities. The importance of MAKKA, as a ritual place increased after the rise of Islam because it became Qibla-Kiblah - the direction to which muslims turn in praying towards AIKa'aba. Yathrib - later to become Medinah - is the second holy city. In fact it was not a ritual place, but like MAKKA it was a stopping place on the ancient trade caravan road. The inhabitants of Medinah practised agriculture because their environment was more suitable than that at MAKKA; water was available and the land was fertile so that in addition to trade, they also practised agriculture. The importance of Medinah as a holy place only developed after AI-Hijra - the immigration of the prophet Mohammad, peace be upon him, to it and his establishing of Islam at that site. Medinah became the capital of the Islamic state both religiously and politically. Islam then spread from Medinah over the Arabian Peninsular to the world beyond. The consequence of the conquest of Iraq, Bilad AI-Sham, Egypt, the north coast of Africa and Persia was that the majority of the population of these countries accepted and adopted Islam as their religious faith. As a result of this the populations of these countries came annually to make AlHajj and in doing so developed several additional pilgrim caravan routes. However, it is the Syrian and Egyptian pilgrim routes - Tareeq AI-Hajj AI-Shami and Wal Masri which are the objects of this work. In both these cases the pilgrim caravan routes were previously ancient trade caravan routes which travelled through Arabia, particularly through the western province of Al Hijaz. The geographical location of Arabia, the cross roads of three continents, Asia, Africa, and Europe, made important the pre-Islamic routes which ran through it. Of course the function of this network at that time was commercial but after the rise of Islam the function of this network of routes became to transport the pilgrims. The geological and topographical features, as well as climatic conditions, in Arabia played a great role in determining the ancient routes in Arabia. The availability of water was a very important consideration on these routes and was influenced by environmental conditions. Since the rainfall is insufficient, the resulting absence or shortage of water on the pilgrim caravan routes made the caliphs pay great concern to providing the pilgrim routes with the most essential facilities, particularly water supplies and storage. Ever since the earliest Islamic times, they provided for the travellers Al birak, water tanks; Ahwadh cisterns; Qanawat - channels; and abyar - wells, in order to make AI-Hajj journey more comfortable. The pilgrim caravans in general, and the Syrian and Egyptian pilgrim caravan routes in particular, passed through several stages of development since their origin in early Islamic times and these evolutionary stages can be seen until the beginning of this century. Because the object of this thesis is to document the remains of the water resource structures, an extensive survey and investigation has been completed on the Syrian and Egyptian pilgrim caravan routes. The field work has been conducted in Saudi Arabia, particularly in the north western region where the Syrian and Egyptian pilgrim routes cross the country. The field work mainly aimed at ascertaining the location of all the way stations and their names and surveying each station in order to record the surviving remains of water resource structures. The field work covered a large area of about 8, OOOkm transect and extended from MACCA in the south through Medinah to the North as far as Halat I Ammar on the north at the border between Saudi Arabia and Jordan. From N.W. to S .Wit stretched from Haql on the Gulf of AI-' Aqaba as far as MAKKA. These routes consist of the major, or principal caravan routes as well as a number of traverse routes which allow travellers a choice of transit as well as connecting routes. There are large way stations as well as small minor way stations. As part of this dissertation, almost all the stopping places have been identified and documented by mapping and photography

    Islamic studies (dirosah islamiyyah) should be carried out and developed dynamically like scientific studies in general. But unfortunately on the contrary, Islamic studies seem to have stagnated or not experienced significant progress amidst various social issues that continue to develop. Even when there are Islamic studies conducted by Muslim insiders, they often appear dull and poor in approach and methodology. Islamic studies should be open to the methods and approaches currently being developed. Ibrahim M. Abu Rabi tries to open up this void through his study of the history of Islamic thought and awakens intellectuals so that they fully understand the role and importance of advancing Islamic studies. The scientific opinion is currently being developed. Problems that are increasingly complicated and complex cannot be explained satisfactorily by classical Islamic research theories that rely solely on textual research. According to him, Islamic studies must be open to contemporary scientific disciplines.Kajian Islam (dirosah islamiyyah) harusnya dijalankan dan dikembangkan secara dinamis seperti kajian ilmiah pada umumnya. Namun sayang sebaliknya, kajian Islam tampak mengalami stagnasi atau tidak mengalami kemajuan berarti di tengah berbagai isu sosial yang terus berkembang. Bahkan ketika ada kajian Islam yang dilakukan oleh orang dalam Muslim (insider), mereka sering nampak membosankan dan miskin dalam pendekatan dan metodologi. Kajian Islam hendaknya terbuka terhadap metode dan pendekatan yang sedang berkembang saat ini. Ibrahim M. Abu Rabi berusaha membuka kekosongan tersebut melalui kajiannya tentang sejarah pemikiran Islam dan menyadarkan kaum intelektual agar memahami sepenuhnya peran dan pentingnya dalam memajukan kajian Islam. Pendapat ilmiah saat ini sedang dikembangkan. Persoalan yang semakin pelik dan kompleks tidak dapat dijelaskan secara memuaskan oleh teori-teori penelitian Islam klasik yang hanya mengandalkan penelitian tekstual. Menurutnya, kajian Islam harus bersifat terbuka terhadap disiplin ilmu kekinian

    TMK’ya göre gerçekleşen boşanmaların islam hukuku açısından değerlendirilmesi

    No full text
    Discussions on marriage and divorce started with the adoption of the new Turkish Civil Law (TMK) on 4 October 1926 have not finished yet. One of the topics discussed is that whether divorcements performed according to TMK are valid in terms of Islamic law or not. After enduring discussions on the dilemma of "civil marriage – religious marriage", most of the modern scholars of Islamic law has declared that a civil marriage performed "in accordance with terms" is valid in terms of religious/Islamic principles. But we can't say the same about a civil divorcement performed with the court decision according to TMK. Because such civil divorcements have not been discussed sufficiently by modern scholars of Islamic law, so a common or widespread opinion on this matter hasn't been reached. Also there is no tangible proposals for the solution of social problems emerging because of this matter. This work aims to study this issue which causes some important social problems in our society in terms of "some special cases in Islamic law" and in terms of "procedure (forms) of divorce in Islamic law", and to put the issue in discussion agenda of Islamic law scholars

    Islamisation or Malaynisation? : a study on the role of Islamic law in the economic development of Malaysia : 1969-1993

    No full text
    The thesis examines the role of Islam and Shariah (Islamic law) in the economic development of Malaysia and it rejects the assumption that Islam and Shariah inhibit economic development. In contemporary Malaysia, there are two 'policies' adopted by the Government. Firstly, 'Islamisation' which is for the advancement of Islamic law and institution building. Secondly, 'Malaynisation' which promotes the socio-economic development of the Malay ethnic group. The study adopts a holistic approach which covers the political economy of law in Malaysia. The thesis explores the relationship between the two policies considering in particular whether they are essentially the same. The study covers the pre-colonial, colonial and post-colonial periods although the focus is on the post-1969 period which involved the application of the New Economic Policy (NEP). The NEP was a pro-Malay Policy to rectif,' the economic imbalance of the Malays vis-à-vis other communities. Therefore, the focus of this thesis is on the Malay- Muslim population of Peninsular Malaysia who form the bulk of the Bumiputera (indigenous people). Two Bum iputera and Islamic organisations, Bank Islam (BIIMB) and Tabung Haji (TH) as well as the Bumiputera unit trust scheme, Amanah Saham Nasional (ASN) are used as the case studies. Their establishment, structure and organisation are examined. There is a specific focus on the extent to which they are examples of Islamisation or Malaynisation. It is clear that in contemporary Malaysia, Islam and Shariah are being used by the Government to promote economic development. Islamic values have been used to further Malay economic participation in the commercial sector. As a consequence, the economic position of many Malay-Muslims has greatly improved. However, the Government position is questioned by the Islamic opposition who say that the Islamisation policy in many respects is either contrary to Islam or merely cosmetic, and want a 'pure' Islamic approach. The thesis therefore involves a critical examination of the perspectives of both the Government and the Islamic opposition

    Jejak Peradaban Profetik Ibrahim Dalam Islam

    Dalam beberapa literatur, Nabi Ibrahim dianggap sebagai sosok penting peletak dasar monoteisme, sehingga dikenal sebagai Bapak Monoteisme. Hal ini, sebab hadirnya Nabi Ibrahim dengan syariat yang dibawanya di masa dia hidup dianggap menjadi penanda transisi peradaban profetik dari umat nabi-nabi sebelumnya yang terbelenggu oleh paham ketuhanan politeistis ke arah paham monoteistis.  Simpulan ini tentu tidak dapat dikatakan benar sepenuhnya, khususnya ketika dipandang dari persepektif Islam yang meyakini bahwa monoteisme bahkan telah ada sejak diturunkannya Adam sebagai manusia pertama. Penelitian yang tergolong penelitian kepustakaan (library research) ini, menggunakan metode deskriptif. Penelitian ini menghasilkan kesimpulan sebagai berikut. Pertama, bahwa setelah banjir besar yang menenggelamkan kaum Nuh yang kufur, peradaban manusia mengalami perkembangan yang pesat, seperti penyebaran umat manusia ke berbagai benua. Setelah penyebaran tersebut, dan generasi-generasi yang beriman sudah mulai terkikis, diutuslah Hud kepada kaum ‘Ad yang menjadi kaum pertama yang menyembah berhala dan menganut paham politeisme, begitupun pada kaum Tsamud yang kepada mereka Saleh diutus. Monoteisme baru kembali muncul pada masa Ibrahim yang ditandai dengan penyelidikan radikalnya terhadap konsep ketuhanan. Kedua, pada masa peradaban profetik Ibrahim, terjadi peristiwa-peristiwa penting yang kelak menjadi dasar bagi ritual-ritual ibadah dalam Islam yang dibawa oleh Nabi Muhammad

    Ibrahim Paşa Döneminde Cebel-i Lübnan'da Siyasi ve Hukuki Dönüşüm

    No full text
    When Mount Lebanon came under the rule of Kavalali Ibrahim Pasha in 1832, various political transformations resulted in several legal changes; as a result, the Druze and Maronites underwent change related to family law, including marriage, divorce, and inheritance. The Druze attempted to protect their traditional laws during the period of Ibrahim Pasha, and the Maronites began to gain autonomy in their legal status along the political process. This study examines the political and legal status of the Druze and Maronites during the Egyptian rule and shows the legal changes that occurred in these two sects during the Ottoman administration. © 2020 Islam Tetkikleri Dergisi.

    Political Instrumentalisation of Islam, Persistent Autocracies, and Obscurantist Deadlock

    No full text
    The empirical literature has established a strong link between the fact of being a Muslim-dominated country and indicators of political performance and democracy. This suggests the possible existence of a relation between religion, Islam in this instance, and societal characteristics. Bernard Lewis and others have actually argued the case for such a relation, pointing to aspects of the Islamic religion and culture that make the advent of democracy especially difficult. These arguments fall into the general idea of the Clash of civilisations put forward by Samuel Huntington. In this paper, we discuss this sort of argument and show that there is a systematic misconception about the true nature of the relationship between Islam and politics: far from being merged into the religious realm, politics tends to dominate religion. Because of the particular characteristics of Is-lam, namely, the lack of a centralised religious authority structure and the great variability of interpretations of the Islamic law, there is a risk of an obscurantist deadlock in the form of a vicious process whereby both the ruler and his political opponents try to outbid each other by using the religious idiom. This risk looms particularly large in crisis situations accentuated by international factors.
