I have been concerned to study the responses of Indian sufism to the growth of the colonial state, which established new forms of knowledge and new forms of order, and to the emergence of Muslim movements of revival and reform, which saw, and still see, sufism as inimical to the capacity of Muslims to sustain an Islamic society. It is a context more hostile for sufism than ever experienced before. I have approached the problem by examining the responses of three working spiritual traditions in nineteenth and twentieth century India.

  • Aden: Capital of Yemen LOCAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY
    Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized CommercialAden: Capital of Yemen LOCAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY Foreword Since 000, with the issuance of the Local Authorities Law No. 4, Yemen has been pursuing an ambitious decentralization agenda. This agenda aims to delegate greater fiscal and administra- tive authority to local governments and to give communities –public leaders, residents, and inves- tors – more control over the economic and social development of their cities and towns. To date, city development strategies (CDS) have been initiated in four of Yemen’s largest urban areas – Sana’a, Aden, Hodeidah, and Mukalla. With support from Cities Alliance and The World Bank, the CDS process in each of these cities has brought together public and private sector leadership to assess the strengths and weaknesses of the city, think strategically about opportuni- ties for equitable economic growth, develop a long-term vision, and draft a prioritized action plan. In all four cases, the CDS process has been coupled with revisions to the cities’ master plans to ensure a strong link between economic development plans and infrastructure. The benefits of the CDS process go far beyond the writing of the CDS document. To create a long-term vision for the city required the participation of a variety of public, private, and civil soci- ety leaders who do not often have the occasion to come together to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing the city. The structure for cross-sectoral communication provided under the umbrella of the CDS has had a lasting effect in terms of helping to align the city’s social, eco- nomic, and environmental interests.

  • Documenting the Virtual 'Caliphate'
    1 Documenting the Virtual ‘Caliphate’ By Charlie Winter Foreword by Haras Rafiq 2 Quilliam is the world’s first counter-extremism think tank, set up to address the unique challenges of citizenship, identity, and belonging in a globalized world. Quilliam stands for religious freedom, equality, human rights, and democracy. Challenging extremism is the duty of all responsible members of society. Not least because cultural insularity and extremism are products of the failures of wider society to foster a shared sense of belonging and to advance democratic values. Quilliam seeks to challenge what we think and the way we think. It aims to generate creative, informed, and inclusive discussions to counter the ideological underpinnings of terrorism, whilst simultaneously providing evidence-based recommendations to governments for related policy measures. The author would like to thank all those interviewed in the course of researching this report. The author would also like to thank Lloyd Randle, Sarah Sinno and Rachel Bryson whose contributions as research assistants were invaluable.

The work also covers critically the opinions of both sides of the argument as to their standing. Ibnu Abidin himself was a “Sayyid” and in his work extols his position as one. Nevertheless, his article provides a number of hadiths that can help provide a balanced look at the claims of a special position of the family of the Prophet as defined by history, tradition and culture. 7KHZRUNRI,EQލƖELGLQHQWLWOHGEvident Knowledge on the Benefit of Pure Lineage, written in mid 1200s A.H., discusses the position of the descendants of Prophet Muhammad ) to him in the Hereafter.

By members of the family of the Prophet, we are examining the designation as understood in its strictest sense, that is, to mean Ali, Fatima, Hassan and Hussein which is mentioned in several hadiths.
