She was not only as one of the earliest reporters of the authentic sayings of the Prophet Muḥammad, but also a great source for conveying his private family life. The article seeks to show that ‘Ā’isha’s life in the 7th century Arabia is especially remarkable when examined through the lenses of contemporary times. Her main characteristic was her critical, ever-inquisitive, and curious mind. Through the questions she was able to ask, ‘Ā’isha became a bridge between the time of the Prophet and the contemporary Muslim life. The important role she played in the scholarly efforts of Muslim men and women in learning and teaching knowledge needs to be examined and properly emphasized. Her sound scholarship in Islamic disciplines include but was not necessarily be limited to hadith, tafsīr, fiqh, literature, and poetry. Today Muslim women may take ‘Ā’isha not only as a pious example, but follow her intelligence, curiosity, and reasoning. [Dengan kecerdasan dan kepercayaan diri yang khas, Ā’isha terkenal sebagai seorang ulama perempuan yang ideal. Tidak hanya dikenal sebagai perawi hadis, dia juga merupakan rujukan yang hebat mengenai masalah-masalah pribadi dan keluarga.

His scholarly and unbiased analysis of the subject invites the attention of the Muslims all over the world to view the subject dispassionately and try to differentiate and dissociate the authentic from the unauthentic and fabricated Hadith. In this way it will be a great service to Islam to introduce it in its true colours and contours through the help of reliable and authentic Hadith.

As the Quran and religious law, and issuing Islamic scholar Khaled Abou El Fadl notes, fatwas (rulings on questions of Islamic law), “certain families from Damascus, Cairo, and women rarely perform such actions today. Baghdad made a virtual tradition of training Most Muslim countries, including those in female transmitters and narrators, and… the Middle East, do not allow women to these female scholars regularly trained serve as judges in Islamic courts.

  • Interpreting the Qur'an and the Constitution
    INTERPRETING THE QUR’AN AND THE CONSTITUTION: SIMILARITIES IN THE USE OF TEXT, TRADITION, AND REASON IN ISLAMIC AND AMERICAN JURISPRUDENCE Asifa Quraishi* INTRODUCTION Can interpreting the Qur’an be anything like interpreting the Constitution? These documents are usually seen to represent overwhelming opposites in our global legal and cultural landscapes. How, after all, can there be any room for comparison between a legal system founded on revelation and one based on a man-made document? What this premise overlooks, however, is that the nature of the founding legal text tells only the beginning of the story. With some comparative study of the legal cultures that formed around the Qur’an and the Constitution, a few common themes start to emerge, and ultimately it turns out that there may be as much the same as is different between the jurisprudence of Islam and the United States. Though set against very different cultures and legal institutions, jurists within Islamic law have engaged in debates over legal interpretation that bear a striking resemblance to debates in the world of American constitutional theory.1 We will here set these debates next to * Assistant Professor, University of Wisconsin Law School. The author wishes to thank Frank Vogel and Jack Balkin for their support and advice in the research that contributed to this article, and Suzanne Stone for the opportunity to be part of a stimulating conference and symposium. 1 Positing my two fields as “Islamic” and “American” invokes a host of potential misunderstandings. First, these are obviously not mutually exclusive categories, most vividly illustrated by the significant population of American Muslims, to which I myself belong.

  • Jerusalem Studies in Arabic and Islam 33(2007)
    The Institute of Asian and African Studies The Max Schloessinger Memorial Foundation O print from JERUSALEM STUDIES IN ARABIC AND ISLAM 33(2007) Uri Rubin The hands of AbuLahab and the gazelle of the Ka,ba THE HEBREW UNIVERSITY OF JERUSALEM THE FACULTY OF HUMANITIES JSAI 33 (2007) THE HANDS OF ABU LAHAB AND THE GAZELLE OF THE KA,BA Uri Rubin Tel Aviv University Qur-an111:1 deals with AbuLahab, one of Muh. ammad's paternal un- cles, and a prominent gure among the BanuHashimof the Quraysh. Verse 1 places a curse upon his two hands: Tabbat yadaAbLahab... \Perish the two hands of AbuLahab..." (the form tabbat is usually explained as du,a-, \imprecation"). Various interpretations were put forward to explain such a harsh attack on Muh. ammad's uncle. The most common asbabal-nuzul tradition says that when AbuLahab heard some of Muh. ammad's rst public sermons he said: Tabban laka (\curse be upon you"), whereupon the sura was revealed. But from this neat story it is still not clear why the Qur-anturns to AbuLahab's hands, in- stead of keeping to AbuLahab's own style and saying: Tabban li-AbLa- hab. Other interpretations provide an answer to the problem by taking the \hands" literally and by describing various physical acts which Abu Lahab supposedly committed against Muh. ammad and his followers. One exceptional tradition connects this Qur-anicchapter not so much to AbuLahab's enmity to Muh. ammad as to his devotion to the worship of the goddess al-,Uzzawhose sanctuary was outside Mecca, in Nakhla.

  • The Authority of the Sunnah According to the Qur'anic Text
    ajiss301-latest_ajiss 12/10/2012 6:55 PM Page 48 The Authority of the Sunnah According to the Qur’anic Text Ahmad Eldridge Cleaver Abstract This study analyzes what the Qur’an ascribes to the Sunnah of Muhammad and highlights the existence of indicators within the Qur’anic text as to the Sunnah’s significance, role, and legal au- thority. Insight into its place and role is researched according to the Qur’an, and answers are sought as to its significance in Is- lamic law and thought. The answers presented are the ones found in the Qur’anic discourse circulating around Muhammad. The analysis, which examines thirty-five Qur’anic verses that mention Muhammad, is organized according to several themes, among them obedience to God and to Muhammad and the lat- ter’s judicial role. Introduction The Qur’an, the first source of the Islamic lifestyle,1 contains numerous rules and broad guidelines related to religious, spiritual, moral, legal, social, and economic matters, as well as to what is acceptable in war and peace.2 Such verses are often constructed as a direct dialogue with Muhammad (Q. 2:80, 97, 135; 3:154; 8:38; 17:110). For example, Q. 2:80 proclaims: Ahmad Eldridge Cleaver is an American Ph.D. candidate in Islamic studies at the Interna- tional University of Africa in Khartoum, Sudan.

She used to sit with the other women and transmit the knowledge that she had received from the Prophet SAW long after he had died. Although she was still very young, Aisha participated in them all, bringing water for the Muslims warriors, and helping to look after the wounded. The issue of Aisha's age at the time she was married to Muhammad has been of interest since the earliest days of Islam. Truly such a thing is in God's sight an enormity. Shia believe that Ali had been chosen to lead by Muhammad; Sunni maintain that the community chose Abu Bakr, and did so in accordance with Muhammad's wishes. Yet no claims of this sort were raised for hundreds and hundreds of years, whether by the pagan Arabs, the Romans, or any of the subsequent societies, until very recently.

  • Ruqya in Islam - a Brief Outline
    !1 Ruqya in Islam - a brief outline. Introduction - what is ruqya? Ruqya is the practice of reciting Qur’ānic verses and supplications for the sake of seeking a cure.1 Allāh in reality is the One who provides the cure for all illnesses. There is no bene>it except through Him. But in the same manner Allāh Almighty can provide relief via (i) a doctor (ii) certain foods and medicine, He can also provide the cure via the means of religious words. It is abundantly clear that performing ruqya is proven from the sacred texts, whether it is done (i) via the means of a relic (ii) via blowing after recitation (iii) via an amulet (ta’wīz) that contains religious words. Ruqya via the means of a relic *Umm Salama (may Allāh be pleased with her) possessed some blessed hairs of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him). When people were ill or affected by the evil eye, then they would come to her with water in a basin. She would then dip the hairs of the Prophet in the water. They would then drink this water or bathe from it as a means of cure.2 Ruqya via the means of blowing after recitation *Uthmān ibn Abī al-Ās (may Allāh be pleased with him) informed the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him) that he suffered from body pains. He was told to place his hands on the affected part, recite bismillāh three times and then to recite the following seven times: ِ ِ ِ ِ اَ ُع ْوذ بعزَة ال َو ُق ْد َرته من َش ِر ما اَ ِج ُد َو اُحاذ ُر As a result of this ruqya, he was cured of his pains.3 *The Mother of the Faithful Ā’isha (may Allāh be pleased with her) reports that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him) would recite Sūrah al-Falaq and Sūrah al-Nās upon himself and then blow upon his blessed body (by blowing on his hand, then wiping them on his face and body).4 *In a beautiful report narrated by Imām al-Bukhārī in his Sahih, Abū Sa’īd al-Khudrī (may Allāh be pleased with him) reported: 1 Mirqāt al-Mafātīh Sharh Mishkāt al-Masābīh, Mulla Alī Qārī.
