Alevi View of Alevism ABSTRACT Why Label Alevi Islam as Shi`ite?: A Comparative Inquiry into Alevi Identity Outside of the Sunni-Shi`ite Framework by Reyhan Erdogdu Basaran The Alevis represent the most significant minority religious group in Turkey and the Alevi question represents a unique ethnic and religious challenge for the Turkish state. Although the number of academic studies on Alevism have dramatically increased in the last three decades, the question of whether Alevism is a branch of Shi`ism still remains a neglected subject of the Alevi literature. The majority of recent works on Alevism have automatically and straightly classified Alevism as Shi`ite due to the shared religious elements by the two groups. They did not intend, however, to analyze, compare and contrast those Shi`ite currents as to how they are applied/perceived in Shi`ism and Alevism. By using a comparative study of religion methodology, this research seeks to provide an elaborative analysis on the distinguishing features of the Alevi belief system, in relation to the Alid cause. While analyzing the contemporary approaches and archival of the official and historical records on Alevi belief, the particular focus of this dissertation is to understand, decode, and theorize the status of Alevism in conjunction with and separate from Sunnism and Shi`ism. In doing so, this dissertation argues that most of the existing scholarship fails to conceive of the Alevi differences outside of the Sunni-Shi`ite framework. Acknowledgments I would first like to acknowledge the Turkish Ministry of Education for honoring me with a full fellowship to pursue a graduate degree in the United States of America and for their funding of the first two years of my Ph.D. education at Rice University. I would also like to thank the Department of Religion at Rice University for offering funding to cover the remaining three years education of my Ph.D. life. This dissertation would not have been possible without the financial support of both of these respected institutions of learning. Most of my research was done during my visit to the British Library in London and Gazi Üniversitesi Türk Kültürü ve Hacı Bektas Veli Arastırma Merkezi in Ankara. A good number of the archival and historical records and modern materials that I was able to scan and copy in these places paved the way for my writing. I am also very grateful to the staff of the Interlibrary Loan System at Rice University and to the staff of the ISAM (Islam Araş tırmalar Merkezi) Library in Istanbul. Their help and support enabled me to keep working on my research. I am deeply thankful to my advisor, Prof. David Cook, for believing in me since the beginning of my graduate education at Rice until the final stage of this journey and for his endless support, encouragement, and patience. I could always knock at his door when I was in need. His feedback, suggestions and critical review of my work helped me to improve the theme, argument and quality of my research. My sincere thanks also goes to Prof. Jeffrey Kripal whose classes not only made me ‘a confused scholar’ (as we are meant to be), but have inspired me to think critically and taught me to challenge myself as a scholar. It is through such professors as Cook and Kripal that I have come to know that there are great scholars who not only teach their students, but also help identify and guide them through the trouble spots in their work. My gratitude also goes to Lora Wildenthal, who very timely stepped in with her kindness and support to be the third reader of my dissertation. I would like to take this opportunity to express my deep gratitude to all of the iv professors at Rice University, particularly to April D. DeConic, who as chair of the Department of Religion has become to me a leading role model, and to Anthony Pinn and William Parsons who have always been supportive. I am also thankful to Sylvia Louie who was at Rice when I began and was always ready to respond to my questions with kindness and patience. Special thanks go to Lydia Westbrook whose assistance helped me get through the challenges that I faced during the end of my Ph.D. journey. She was always there when I was most in need of administrative help. I am particularly thankful to the professors and staff of the Center for the Study of Women, Gender, and Sexuality for their intellectual engagement and relational support. The classes provided by the Center enabled me to educate myself and flourish in my understanding of gender studies. My sincere gratitude goes to my dear friend, Ian Coulter, for his friendship and scholarly engagement. Meeting with him was one of the best things that happened to me in Houston. We met in 2011 when I was invited to his home for a meal on Thanksgiving Day by his beloved late wife, Mary Coulter. He showed me his rich library consisting of books on Christianity and Islam. Our conversation, regardless of our age difference, bonded us since that day. He has read my work and offered me his thoughts, through which I was able to improve my argument. I am also indebted to the beautiful and brainy colleagues, Erin Prophet, Minji Lee, Itohan M. Idumwonyi, and Linda Ceriello for their friendship and intellectual engagement. Their comfort, and unconditional support made Houston become a second home to me. I would also like to thank Wambui Wa-Ngatho, Renee Ford, Claire Villarreal, Sravana Borkataky-Varma and Rachel Schneider for their friendship and guidance. To Rukhsana Chughtai who welcomed me to her home each time I came to Houston and offered me her sincere friendship, which I cherish. I am indebted to all of my friends of different nationalities — American, Turkish, Arabian, Persian, Korean, Japanese, and Pakistani — for their hospitality and friendship over the years I have spent in Houston. Through their love and generosity, I was able to overcome all the difficulties of living in a new country. To my mother and father, sisters and brother who provided me emotional and spiritual support throughout my life. Also to my family-in-law who helped me to achieve this success by taking care of my son when I was away from home. v I dedicate this dissertation to the three great men of my life: my beloved husband, Erhan Basaran, and my two sons, Yusuf Bahadır and Mert Mustafa. The love, friendship, support and encouragement of my partner enabled me to balance my life, to be a good mother, and to pursue my dream to be an ambitious scholar. In 2011, when we were newly married, we came to the Rice University Intensive English Program with the intention to pursue graduate studies at Rice University. In 2012, our dream came true as Erhan began his masters at the Department of Earth Science, and I got accepted to the Department of Religion for a Ph.D. degree. The respect and love we offered one another successfully brought us to the end of this journey. Thank you for supporting me to attain my academic and professional goals. Having Yusuf in my life was the main source of joy during the long stress-filled process of writing this dissertation. While preparing myself to defend my thesis, I am excited to hold my second boy, Mert, in my arms.

    Tape Transcription Islam Lecture No. 1 Rule of Law Professor Ahmad Dallal ERIK JENSEN: Now, turning to the introduction of our distinguished lecturer this afternoon, Ahmad Dallal is a professor of Middle Eastern History at Stanford. He is no stranger to those of you within the Stanford community. Since September 11, 2002 [sic], Stanford has called on Professor Dallal countless times to provide a much deeper perspective on contemporary issues. Before joining Stanford's History Department in 2000, Professor Dallal taught at Yale and Smith College. Professor Dallal earned his Ph.D. in Islamic Studies from Columbia University and his academic training and research covers the history of disciplines of learning in Muslim societies and early modern and modern Islamic thought and movements. He is currently finishing a book-length comparative study of eighteenth century Islamic reforms. On a personal note, Ahmad has been terrifically helpful and supportive, as my teaching assistant extraordinaire, Shirin Sinnar, a third-year law student, and I developed this lecture series and seminar over these many months. Professor Dallal is a remarkable Stanford asset. Frederick the Great once said that one must understand the whole before one peers into its parts. Helping us to understand the whole is Professor Dallal's charge this afternoon. Professor Dallal will provide us with an overview of the historical development of Islamic law and may provide us with surprising insights into the relationship of Islam and Islamic law to the state and political authority. He assures us this lecture has not been delivered before. So without further ado, it is my absolute pleasure to turn over the podium to Professor Dallal.

  • The Differences Between Sunni and Shia Muslims the Words Sunni and Shia Appear Regularly in Stories About the Muslim World but Few People Know What They Really Mean
    Name_____________________________ Period_______ Date___________ The Differences Between Sunni and Shia Muslims The words Sunni and Shia appear regularly in stories about the Muslim world but few people know what they really mean. Religion is important in Muslim countries and understanding Sunni and Shia beliefs is important in understanding the modern Muslim world. The beginnings The division between the Sunnis and the Shia is the largest and oldest in the history of Islam. To under- stand it, it is good to know a little bit about the political legacy of the Prophet Muhammad. When the Prophet died in the early 7th Century he not only left the religion of Islam but also an Islamic State in the Arabian Peninsula with around one hundred thousand Muslim inhabitants. It was the ques- tion of who should succeed the Prophet and lead the new Islamic state that created the divide. One group of Muslims (the larger group) elected Abu Bakr, a close companion of the Prophet as the next caliph (leader) of the Muslims and he was then appointed. However, a smaller group believed that the Prophet's son-in-law, Ali, should become the caliph. Muslims who believe that Abu Bakr should be the next leader have come to be known as Sunni. Muslims who believe Ali should have been the next leader are now known as Shia. The use of the word successor should not be confused to mean that that those that followed the Prophet Muhammad were also prophets - both Shia and Sunni agree that Muhammad was the final prophet. How do Sunni and Shia differ on beliefs? Initially, the difference between Sunni and Shia was merely a difference concerning who should lead the Muslim community.

OPEN LETTER TO POPE BENEDICT XVI OCTOBER 4TH, 2006 WRITTEN AND SIGNED BY LEADING MUSLIM SCHOLARS AND LEADERS IN RESPONSE TO POPE BENEDICT XVI’S REMARKS ON ISLAM AT THE REGENSBURG LECTURE ON SEPTEMBER 12, 2006 In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful, And may Peace and Blessings be upon the Prophet Muhammad OPEN LETTER TO HIS HOLINESS POPE BENEDICT XVI In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful, Do not contend with people of the Book except in the fairest way . (The Holy Qur’an, al-Ankabuty 29:46). YOUR HOLINESS, WITH REGARDS TO YOUR LECTURE AT THE University of Regensburg in Germany on September 12th 2006, we thought it appropriate, in the spirit of open exchange, to address your use of a debate between the Emperor Manuel II Paleologus and a “learned Persian” as the starting point for a discourse on the relationship between reason and faith. While we applaud your efforts to oppose the dominance of positivism and materialism in human life, we must point out some errors in the way you mentioned Islam as a counterpoint to the proper use of reason, as well as some mistakes in the assertions you put forward in support of your argument. THERE IS NO COMPULSION IN RELIGION You mention that “according to the experts” the verse which begins, There is no compulsion in religion (al-Baqarah 2:256) is from the early period when the Prophet “was still powerless and under threat,” but this is incorrect.

  • Manifestation of Religious Authority on the Internet: Presentation of Twelver Shiite Authority in the Persian Blogosphere By
    Manifestation of Religious Authority on the Internet: Presentation of Twelver Shiite Authority in the Persian Blogosphere by Narges Valibeigi A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Arts in Sociology Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2012 © Narges Valibeigi 2012 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. Narges Valibeigi ii Abstract Cyberspace has diversified and pluralized people’s daily experiences of religion in unprecedented ways. By studying several websites and weblogs that have a religious orientation, different layers of religious authority including “religious hierarchy, structures, ideology, and sources” (Campbell, 2009) can be identified. Also, using Weber’s definition of the three types of authority, “rational-legal, traditional, and charismatic” (1968), the specific type of authority that is being presented on blogosphere can be recognized. The Internet presents a level of liberty for the discussion of sensitive topics in any kind of religious cyberspace, specifically the Islamic one. In this way, the Internet is expanding the number and range of Muslim voices, which may pose problems for traditional forms of religious authority or may suggest new forms of authority in the Islamic world. The interaction between the Internet and religion is often perceived as contradictory, especially when it is religion at its most conservative practice. While the international and national applications of the Internet have increased vastly, local religious communities, especially fundamentalists, perceived this new technology as a threat to their local cultures and practices.

    Veneration of the Sacred or Regeneration of the Religious: An Title Analysis of Saints and the Popular Beliefs of Kurdish Alevis Author(s) Wakamatsu, Hiroki Journal 上智アジア学, (31) Issue Date 2013-12-27 Type 紀要/Departmental Bulletin Paper Text Version 出版者/Publisher http://repository.cc.sophia.ac.jp/dspace/handle/123456789/358 URL 31 Rights The Journal of Sophia Asian Studies No.31 (2013) Veneration of the Sacred or Regeneration of the Religious: An Analysis of Saints and the Popular Beliefs of Kurdish Alevis WAKAMATSU Hiroki* Introduction For a long time, anthropologists have been describing the importance of religion for all human communities. They have shown that humans will always be interested in dimension of faith, belief, and religion, and established that there is a crucial relationship between the holistic signification and the social institution. At the same time, they have laid out the various reasons why the religion is important for people, such as the way it enables a form of social solidarity among people to add meanings to human life and uncertainty (suffering, death, secret, and illness). For all human progress, the embodiments of religion and faith and the process of discovery are related to collective cultural structuring, social representation, and cultural function.(1) The purpose of anthropology is to investigate people, social relations, and social structure, so faith is one of the most fascinating subjects for anthropologists. Atay mentions that religious anthropology explores religiosity, religious motives and practices that have been formed to represent the way of life and culture rather than their religious contents and sacred/divine sources.(2) Therefore anthropologists have researched the dialectic relationship This is a revised edition of the paper presented as “Ocak in the Globalizing Alevism: An Anthropological Analysis on Dedelik-Seyitlik,” at the 1st International Symposium of Alevism from Past to Present, Bingöl University,Turkey, October 3-5, 2013.

  • İmamet Nazariyesi Bağlamında Zeydiyye'nin İmamiyye'ye Yönelik
    İmamet Nazariyesi Bağlamında Zeydiyye’nin İmamiyye’ye Yönelik Eleştirileri Yrd. Doç. Dr. Yusuf GÖKALP Atıf / ©- Gökalp, Y. (2014). İmamet Nazariyesi Bağlamında Zeydiyye’nin İmamiyye’ye Yönelik Eleş- tirileri, Çukurova Üniversitesi İlahiyat Fakültesi Dergisi, 14 (1), 89-126. Öz- Bu makalenin amacı, ilk dönem Şii düşüncede ortaya çıkan fırkalaşma süreci çerçevesinde Zeydi-İmami farklılaşması ve imamet nazariyesi bağlamında Zeydiyye’nin İmamiyye’ye yönelt- tiği eleştirileri ortaya koymaktır. Zeydiyye’nin eleştirileri, Kasım b. İbrahim er-Ressi’nin “er-Red ale’r-Ravafız” isimli risalesi ve Mansur Billah Abdullah b. Hamza’nın el-Ikdu’s-Semin fi Ahka- mi’l-Eimmeti’l-Hadin isimli eserinden hareketle tespit edilmeye çalışılacaktır. Şii geleneğin iki önemli unsurunu oluşturan Zeydiyye ve İmamiyye arasındaki anlaşmazlık konularından en dikkat çekici olanı imamet konusudur. Zeydiler, özellikle, imamın açık bir nass ile tayini, imam- ların masumiyeti ve mucize sahibi olmaları, imamların gizli ve açık olan şeyler hakkında özel bir bilgiye sahip olmaları, takiyye, mehdi, bed’a ve ricat gibi belli başlı konularda İmamiyye’yi eleş- tirmektedir.
