Does moral anti-theodicy beg the question?
No full textSome philosophers of religion have argued that moral anti-theodicy begs the question. This paper evaluates the arguments from two such philosophers, writing a decade apart—Robert Mark Simpson, and Lauri Snellman. Simpson argues that any global argument against theodicy must allow for the possibility of there existing a plausible theodicy, and that anti-theodical arguments (the argument from insensitivity, the argument from detachment, and the argument from harmful consequences) all implicitly discount this possibility, thus ending up begging the question. Snellman argues that moral anti-theodicies presuppose that some evils cannot be justified, which would presuppose that theodicy is false from the start, which in turn would beg the question against theodicy. The author of the paper argues that Simpson’s arguments rest on an erroneous assumption regarding the nature of anti-theodicy, and that one of Simpson’s arguments sets a problematic standard for argumentation that the author argues we should not accept. It is also argued that Snellman’s argument relies on an unsupported claim from Toby Betenson. Therefore, the author concludes that Simpson and Snellman have not managed to show that moral anti-theodicies beg the question

Pengaruh pemikiran Ulugh Beg (Zij as-Sulthoni) terhadap hisab awal bulan dalam kitab Sullamun Nayyraen
No full textZij Ulugh Beg merupakan data Astronomi yang dipakai dalam Kitab-kitab taqribi untuk penentuan awal Bulan Qamariah di Indonesia. Secara khusus Kitab Sullamun Nayyraen yang merupakan Kitab induk sistem taqribi di Indonesia juga mengadopsi data astronomi dari Zij Ulugh Beg. Dalam Muqaddimah Kitab Sullamun Nayyraen secara terang-terangan menyebutkan bahwa mengambil data Astronomi (Zij) Ulugh beg, namun tidak dijelaskan sampai sejauh mana data Ulugh Beg yang di adopsi oleh Kitab Sullam Nayyraen. Dalam hal ini Penulis menggali pengaruh pemikiran Ulugh Beg dalam Kitab Sullamun Nayyraen. Dalam penelitian ini Penulis ingin mengetahui beberapa hal yaitu: 1). Bagaimana Sejarah masuknya pemikiran Ulugh Beg di Indonesia ? Bagaimana Pengaruh Pemikiran Ulugh Beg dalam Kitab Sullamun Nayyraen ? penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif. Pengumpulan data diambil dengan teknik kepustakaan. Sementara untuk analisis data menggunakan deskriptif dan komparatif.
Hasil dalam penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa: 1) naskah Ulugh Beg pertama kali dibawa ke Indonesia oleh Syaikh Abdu al-Rahman ibnu Ahmad al-Misri dari Mesir yang kemudian mempunyai murid Habib Utsman dan Ahmad Dahlan al-Samarani. Lalu diteruskan oleh Habib Utsman kepada muridnya yaitu KH. Mochammad Manshur Al-Battawi dengan karyanya Kitab Sullamun Nayyraen. 2) corak Hisab awal Bulan di Indonesia sebelum pemikiran Ulugh Beg masuk masih menggunakan sistem hisab dengan perpaduan antara penanggalan aji saka dan kalender hijriyah, sehingga bersifat aritmatis. Setelah pemikiran Ulugh Beg masuk ke Indonesia sistem hisab awal Bulan di Indonesia berkembang menjadi haqiqi taqribi yang dipelopori oleh Kitab Sullamun Nayyraen. Namun pengaruh pemikiran Ulugh Beg dalam Kitab Sullamun Nayyraen hanya sebatas pada tabel Astronomi dan tidak pada model algoritma penentuan awal Bulannya. Sistem hisab Ulugh Beg dikategorikan sebagai hisab haqiqi bit tahqiq karena dalam mencari waktu ijtima’ dicari selisih bujur ekliptika Bulan dan Matahari sebenarnya kemudian dibagi dengan kecepatan. Selanjutnya model hisab Ulugh Beg menggunakan rumus segitiga bola dalam mencari tinggi hilal. Dalam Zij Ulugh Beg dan Kitab Sullamun Nayyraen terdapat persamaan dan perbedaan. Persamaannya terletak pada tabel penentuan posisi rata-rata Bulan dan Matahari. Sedangkan perbedaannya terletak pada suku koreksi dan nilai ta’dil (koreksi posisi Bulan dan Matahari). Tabel Sullamun Nayyraen menyederhanakan Zij Ulugh Beg dari segi data yang dipakai. Data Ulugh Beg sampai kepada detik sedangkan data Sullamun Nayyraen hanya sampai kepada menit. Elemen-elemen yang digunakan dalam Zij Ulugh Beg dan Kitab Sullamun Nayyraen terdapat penambahan dan pengurangan. Penambahan dalam Kitab Sullamun Nayyraen yakni al-Alamah dan al-hishsah sedangkan pengurangan yakni elemen markaz Bulan, ra’sun dan wasath. Sementara untuk hasil hisab waktu ijtima’ dan tinggi hilal antara Zij Ulugh Beg dan Sullamun Nayyraen, Zij Ulugh Beg menghasilkan waktu ijtima’ dan tinggi hilal yang lebih mendekati dengan hasil perhitungan kontemporer. Selisih untuk waktu ijtima’ berada pada satuan menit yakni〖 0〗^j 〖 2〗^m 〖29〗^d kemudian tinggi hilal yakni〖 0〗^o 〖 24〗^' 〖31,38〗^" pada tahun 1441 Hijriah. sedangkan pada tahun 1442. Perbedaan model hisab ini dipengaruhi oleh sistem hisab yang berkembang pada saat Kitab Sullamun Nayyraen dibuat yang masih bercorak aritmatis.
ABSTRACT:
Zij Ulugh Beg is Astronomical data used in the Books of Taqribi to determine the beginning of the Qamariah in Indonesia. Specifically the Book of Sullamun Nayyraen which is the parent book of the taqribi system in Indonesia also adopts astronomical data from Zij Ulugh Beg. In the Muqaddimah the Book of Sullamun Nayyraen blatantly states that taking the Astronomy (Zij) data of Ulugh beg, but it is not explained to what extent the Ulugh Beg data adopted by the Sullam Nayyraen Book. In this case the author explores the influence of Ulugh Beg thought in the Book of Sullamun Nayyraen. In this study the author wants to know several things, namely: 1). How is the history of Ulugh Beg's thought in Indonesia? How does the influence of Ulugh Beg's thought in the Book of Sullamun Nayyraen? This research is a qualitative research. Data collection is taken by library technique. While for data analysis using descriptive and comparative.
The results in this study indicate that: 1) the Ulugh Beg manuscript was first brought to Indonesia by Shaykh Abdu al-Rahman ibn Ahmad al-Misri from Egypt who then had pupils Habib Uthman and Ahmad Dahlan al-Samarani. Then passed on by Habib Uthman to his student, KH. Mochammad Manshur Al-Battawi with his work The Book of Sullamun Nayyraen. 2) Hisab style of the beginning of the month in Indonesia before Ulugh Beg's thought entered still using the reckoning system with a combination of aji saka calendar and the hijri calendar, so that it is arithmetic. After Ulugh Beg's thoughts entered Indonesia, the early Moon reckoning system in Indonesia developed into haqiqi taqribi, which was pioneered by the Book of Sullamun Nayyraen. However, the influence of Ulugh Beg's thought in the Book of Sullamun Nayyraen is limited to the Astronomy table and not to the algorithm for determining the beginning of the Moon. The Ulugh Beg reckoning system is categorized as reckoning haqiqi bit tahqiq because in finding the time of ijtima 'the difference in ecliptic longitude of the Moon and the Sun is actually then divided by speed. Furthermore, the Ulugh Beg reckoning model uses the spherical triangle formula in finding the height of the new moon. In Zij Ulugh Beg and the Book of Sullamun Nayyraen there are similarities and differences. The equation lies in the average positioning table of the Moon and the Sun. While the difference lies in the correction term and ta'dil value (correction of the position of the Moon and Sun). The Sullamun Nayyraen table simplifies Zij Ulugh Beg in terms of the data used. The Ulugh Beg data reached seconds, while the Sullamun Nayyraen data only reached minutes. The elements used in Zij Ulugh Beg and Sullamun Nayyraen are additions and subtractions. Additions in the Book of Sullamun Nayyraen namely al-Alamah and al-Hishsah while the subtraction of the elements markaz moon, ra’sun and wasath. While for the results of the reckoning of ijtima time 'and hilal height between Zij Ulugh Beg and Sullamun Nayyraen, Zij Ulugh Beg produces ijtima time' and hilal height which are closer to the results of contemporary calculations. Difference for time ijtima 'is in units of minutes that is 〖 0〗^j 〖 2〗^m 〖29〗^d then the hilal height is 〖 0〗^o 〖 24〗^' 〖31,38〗^" "in 1441 Hijriah whereas in 1442. The difference in the reckoning model was influenced by the reckoning system that developed when the Book of Sullamun Nayyraen was made that was still in an arithmetic pattern

This Is an Abridged Account of Delhi Which Is an Old City and One of the Chosen Ones amongst the Cities
No full textThe second part of the translation has three segments. The first is dedicated to the history of Delhi from the time of the Mahabharat to the periods of Anangpal Tomar to the Mughal Emperor Humayun as also Sher Shah, the Afghan ruler. In the second and third segments Mirza Sangin Beg adroitly navigates between twin centres of power in the city. He writes about Qila Mubarak, or the Red Fort, and gives an account of the several buildings inside it and the cost of construction of the same. He ambles into the precincts and mentions the buildings constructed by Shahjahan and other rulers, associating them with some specific inmates of the fort and the functions performed within them. When the author takes a walk in the city of Shahjahanabad, he writes of numerous residents, habitations of rich, poor, and ordinary people, their mansions and localities, general and specialized bazars, the in different skills practised areas, places of worship and revelry, processions exemplifying popular culture and local traditions, and institutions that had a resonance in other cultures. The Berlin manuscript gives generous details of the officials of the English East India Company, both native and foreign, their professions, and work spaces. Mirza Sangin Beg addresses the issue of qaum most unselfconsciously and amorphously.</p
A Description of the Surrounding Environs of Dar-ul Khilafa Shahjahanabad, AND THE INSCRIPTIONS [ON] THE BUILDINGS OF OLD DELHI
No full textFinally, Mirza Sangin Beg tackles a huge assemblage of eclectic human exertions in the environs, centred around areas of trade and commerce, piety, landscaped spaces, cemeteries, and natural surroundings of rivers and hillocks. While structures such as the Jantar Mantar and the Firoz Shah’s lat are alluded to, it is stories about the human agencies that are privileged above these spaces. There are detailed renderings of activities in areas such as Pahar Ganj, Subzi Mandi, and Qadam Sharif, the biannual fair at Hanuman Temple, celebrations of Salono, numerous chhariyan melas, and worship of Goga. A fantastic account of Makhdum Jahanian Jahan Gasht coexists with an intense belief in relics of Prophet Muhammad, Hazrat Ali, and Imam Husain. Mirza Sangin Beg goes beyond the geographical region of Delhi towards north, west, and southwest. He writes of Bu Ali Shah Qalander’s dargah in Panipat and of the English platoon, officers, and gentlemen stationed between Gurgaon and Pataudi. The author has placed a variety of inscriptions and epitaphs from equally diverse structures and graveyards in a fatuous manner. Certain inscriptions seem to satisfy the self-esteem of the builders, some are laudatory while several are informative.</p

The Action of the Beg Officials in Yarkand under the Control of the Qing Focusing on the Defense against the Campaign of Muḥammad Yūsuf (1830)
No full textapplication/pdfIn 1759, the Qing conquered South Xinjiang, where many Turkic Muslims lived. The Qing appointed begs, influential Turkic Muslims, as officials. Under the control of the Qing, beg officials administered South Xinjiang. The Kashgar Khwāja family, descendants of Makhdūm-i Aʻẓam, resisted the Qing troops and escaped from the country. From the 1820s to the 1860s, the Kashgar Khwāja family attacked the western cities of South Xinjiang, including Kashgar, Yangi Hisar, Yarkand, and Khotan, with the assistance of the Khōqand Khanate.
This article examines the actions of the beg officials in the defense of Yarkand District against the campaign of Muḥammad Yūsuf. It shows that, under the supervision of Qing imperial agent Bichang, ‘Abd al-Raḥmān, the ḥākim beg at Yarkand, and other beg officials, gained the cooperation of the ākhunds, islamic religious leaders, and foreigners such as the people of Badakhshān. They mobilized Turkic Muslim troops and residents to defend Yarkand District and Huicheng, the muslim city, from Khwāja armies. As a result, the beg officials succeeded in defending some parts of the district and the city. The author argues that the beg officials took effective measures to defend the villages and the muslim city in Yarkand.departmental bulletin pape
Coastal sea responses to atmospheric forcings at two different resolutions
No full textWe investigated coastal sea responses to three, multi-day strong wind episodes that occurred in the middle Adriatic during the Target Operational Period (TOP) of the European COastal sea OPerational observing and forecasting system (ECOOP) project. A high-resolution oceanographic model (1 km horizontal, 16 σ vertical layers) based on the modified Princeton Ocean Model (POM) was applied to a highly complex domain located in the coastal area of the eastern Adriatic Sea. The oceanographic model was nested into the Adriatic REGional model (AREG-2) covering the entire Adriatic Sea. Meteorological forcing was prepared by two atmospheric models. The coarser model was the European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecast model (ECMWF, with horizontal and temporal resolutions of 0.25° and 6 h, respectively), and the finer one was the Aire Limitée Adaptation dynamique Développement InterNational model (ALADIN, with horizontal and temporal resolutions of 8 km and 3 h, respectively, and winds dynamically adapted to a horizontal resolution of 2 km). The results show that small-scale atmospheric features, which arise due to the orographically complex mainland and the number of islands and were not reproduced by the coarser atmospheric model, substantially affected surface currents, mass transports, sea surface temperature (SST) and surface salinity in the coastal area during strong Bora. For strong Sirocco, the atmospheric model's resolution was important for currents on the lee sides of islands. © Author(s) 2011
