  • Arh 362: Islamic Art
    ARH 362: ISLAMIC ART CLUSTER REQUIREMENT: 4C, THE NATURE OF GLOBAL SOCIETY COURSE DESCRIPTION This course surveys the art and architecture of the Islamic world from the 7th through the 20th centuries. By looking at major themes and regional variations of Islamic art and architecture, the course examines how meanings in various socio-political and historical contexts have been encoded through forms, functions, as well as the aesthetic features of arts, crafts, and the built environment. The last portion of the course, spanning the 19th to the late 20th centuries, examines the West’s discovery of the Islamic arts as well as the integration of Western ideas into indigenous ones. This course can only briefly address some of the major themes. The topics (especially those pertinent to the modern period) are introduced through a number of key readings, but they should be merely seen as introductions, providing possible directions for future and more advanced studies. Discussions and questions are always encouraged. The readings, which have been selected to supplement the required textbooks, are particularly chosen to serve this purpose. COURSE-SPECIFIC OUTCOMES Gain valuable information about Islamic art and design as well as the cultures that gave shape to them Read critically and interpret and evaluate art historical issues in relation to socio-political conditions in non-Western contexts Develop a foundation for writing good critical essays about non-Western art and material culture Research non-Western art in a museum context Comparative studies of Western and Non-Western styles in a variety of media, including 2D and 3D art and design as well as architecture.

  • ISLAMIC-MONUMENTS.Pdf
    1 The Masjid-i Jami of Herat, the city's first congregational mosque, was built on the site of two smaller Zoroastrian fire temples that were destroyed by earthquake and fire. A mosque construction was started by the Ghurid ruler Ghiyas ad-Din Ghori in 1200 (597 AH), and, after his death, the building was continued by his brother and successor Muhammad of Ghor. In 1221, Genghis Khan conquered the province, and along with much of Herat, the small building fell into ruin. It wasn't until after 1245, under Shams al-Din Kart that any rebuilding programs were undertaken, and construction on the mosque was not started until 1306. However, a devastating earthquake in 1364 left the building almost completely destroyed, although some attempt was made to rebuild it. After 1397, the Timurid rulers redirected Herat's growth towards the northern part of the city. This suburbanization and the building of a new congregational mosque in Gawhar Shad's Musalla marked the end of the Masjid Jami's patronage by a monarchy. 2 This mosque was constructed in 1888 and was the first mosque in any Australian capital city. It has four minarets which were built in 1903 for 150 pounds by local cameleers with some help from Islamic sponsors from Melbourne. Its founding members lie in the quiet part of the South West corner of the city. 3 The Cyprus Turkish Islamic Community of Victoria was established in Richmond, Clifton Hill, and was then relocated to Ballarat Road, Sunshine in 1985 The Sunshine Mosque is the biggest Mosque in Victoria, and has extended its services to cater for ladies, elderly and youth groups.

His reaction to the city, often quoted, captures a feeling that was to engender a staunch nostalgia to his era among subsequent generations of Egyptians. He wrote I beheld the metropolis of the world, orchard of the universe, hive of nations, iwan of Islam, throne of royalty, bursting with palaces and iwans within, shining on the horizon with khanqahs and madrasas, illuminated by the moons and stars of its learned scholars.1 Despite its ornateness, Ibn Khaldun’s passage held true for many of his contemporaries who waxed lyrical about Cairo’s vast expanse, diverse population, and architectural splendor.

  • 9 Steps to Re-Opening Mosques Safely 2020
    9 Steps to Re-Opening Mosques Safely 2020 This guide is designed to help UK mosque leaders carefully plan and decide when and how to reopen, ahead of the expected easing of restrictions on places of worship for congregational prayer, whilst maintaining the safety and wellbeing of their communities. It is a non-exhaustive list of considerations based on feedback received to date, and should be interpreted according to your local community needs and context. [email protected] mcb.org.uk/coronavirus 2 9 Steps to Re-Opening Mosques Safely Re-Opening Mosques Safely In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficient, the Most Merciful When Muslims across the world closed their mosques in response to the unprecedented Coronavirus pandemic, we realised that this was one of the most difficult decisions we would have to take. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “There is no wisdom equal to good planning.” Several months on with lockdown restrictions easing, the new challenge of how to re-open mosques safely is proving to be not any easier. Alhumdulillah, there are literally dozens of different plans being drawn up across the world. We have attempted to bring together the best features of these plans in a simple 9-point plan. This also draws on feedback we have received from mosque leaders across the country through surveys, feedback webinars and one-to-one conversations during May and early June 2020, and is an updated version of the initial discussion guidelines issued in mid-May. It is important to note that the points within this document are suggestion, and should be interpreted in the context of the local situation of each mosque and with reference to local scholars and medical professionals.

This means it is based on five very important things that we MUST follow. 1. Shahadah - To believe in and worship only Allah. To believe that Muhammad (pbuh) is His messenger. 2. Salah - We must pray the Salah five times a day. The daily prayers are Fajr, Zohr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha. 3. Zakah - We purify our wealth by giving a small amount to the poor. This is given from our extra wealth. 4. Sawm - Means fasting in the month of Ramadhan. We fast from before Fajr until Maghrib (sunset). 5. Hajj - Is the pilgrimage to Makkah. We perform the Hajj at least once in our lifetime, if we can do it. I is for Islam WWW.MUSALLA.ORG Islamic Activity Lessons Page 4 I ISLAM Islam is the deen of the Muslims. Islam is an Arabic word which is taken from the words peace and submission. We submit to Allah by choosing to follow His guidance and to not do anything against His wishes. When we follow Islam, there is peace: peace in our lives; peace in the community and peace in the world. Islam is not only a religion but a way of life. Islam is the way of life for all the Muslims in the world.
