  • Boctor of $F)Ilos(Op})P I Jn M I I
    SUFI THOUGHT OF MUHIBBULLAH ALLAHABADI Abstract Thesis SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF Boctor of $f)ilos(op})p I Jn M I I MOHD. JAVED ANS^J. t^ Under the Supervision of Prof. MUHAMMAD YASIN MAZHAR SIDDiQUi DEPARTMENT OF ISLAMIC STUDIES ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 2006 Abstract The seventeenth Century of Christian era occupies a unique place in the history of Indian mystical thought. It saw the two metaphysical concepts Wahdat-al Wujud (Unity of Being) and Wahdat-al Shuhud (Unity of manifestation) in the realm of Muslim theosophy and his conflict expressed itself in the formation of many religious groups, Zawiyas and Sufi orders on mystical and theosophical themes, brochures, treatises, poems, letters and general casuistically literature. The supporters of these two schools of thought were drawn from different strata of society. Sheikh Muhibbullah of Allahabad, Miyan Mir, Dara Shikoh, and Sarmad belonged to the Wahdat-al Wujud school of thought; Shaikh Ahmad Sirhindi, Khawaja Muhammad Masum and Gulam Yahya belonged to the other school. Shaikh Abdul Haqq Muhaddith and Shaikh WalliuUah, both of Delhi sought to steer a middle course and strove to reconcile the conflicting opinions of the two schools. Shaikh Muhibbullah of Allahabad stands head and shoulder above all the persons who wrote in favour of Wahdat-al Wujud during this period. His coherent and systematic exposition of the intricate ideas of Wahdat- al Wujud won for him the appellation of Ibn-i-Arabi Thani (the second Ibn-i Arabi). Shaikh Muhibbullah AUahabadi was a prolific writer and a Sufi of high rapture of the 17* century.

  • Family Size Ideals in Pakistan: Precarity and Uncertainty
    Family Size Ideals in Pakistan: Precarity and Uncertainty Abstract Increasing contraceptive use and awareness of the benefits of a small family has been amongst the primary activities of the Pakistan’s family planning program. Despite their efforts, an ideal family size of four children has persisted in Pakistan for the last two decades. A significant body of literature has sought to disentangle and make sense of the dynamics informing these ideals in Pakistan. This work has highlighted financial insecurity, its effects on parents' aspirations for large families, and son preference. Missing, however, is an in-depth investigation of the social, economic, political, and cultural contexts in which family size ideals are embedded. We draw upon 13 months’ worth of ethnographic data from a village in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa to situate family size ideals within their wider sociocultural, political, and economic context. Our findings demonstrate that respondents’ preference for larger families with several sons was an attempt to manage the precarity of daily life structured by regional conflict and violence, structural, intergenerational poverty, class-based exclusion from systems of power and patriarchy. These results allude to the importance of addressing the larger structural factors that contribute to large family size ideals. Introduction Established in 1965, Pakistan’s family planning program has sought to modify the fertility behaviour of Pakistani citizens by increasing their contraceptive use and awareness of the benefits of a small family (Robinson, Shah, and Shah 1981). Despite their efforts, an ideal family size of four children has persisted in the country since the 1990’s (Avan and Akhund 2006, National Institute of Population Studies 2013).

  • The Influence of Arabic on Indian Language: Historically and Lingustically
    International Journal of Management and Applied Science, ISSN: 2394-7926 Volume-2, Issue-11, Special Issue-1, Nov.-2016 THE INFLUENCE OF ARABIC ON INDIAN LANGUAGE: HISTORICALLY AND LINGUSTICALLY 1MUNA MOHAMMED ABBAS ALKHATEEB, 2HASANEIN HASAN 1,2College of Basic Education, Babylon University, IRAQ E-mail: ¹[email protected], ²[email protected] Abstract- Having talked with many people from India when we studied there from 2007 till 2014, we were often fascinated by words that sounded Arabic in origin. When asking about the meaning, they were indeed Arabic. And I could detect more words in the few Hindi Bollywood movies that I have seen as well. Historicallyspeaking , Arabic has been used in India almost exclusively by its Muslim population,and has been a key force in delineating and shaping Indian Muslim identity. This is not surprising, for it is generally acknowledged that the Arabic language has a predominantly sacred character outside the Arabic speaking Middle East. A thorough study of Indian history suggests that India's first substantial contact with the Arabic language came when the Arab Muslims settled in the western Indian province of Sind. Subsequently, the Arabic language continued to flourish further under the patronage of the Mughal rulers in India. In the Islamic epochs, the usage of Arabic was liturgical. But after the independence of India, non-sacred Arabic gained momentum. However, the functional manifestation of the language in the subcontinent has great historical significance and has not been systematically explored.To this end, this paper presents an attempt to analyze the processes and extent of development and uses of Arabic in India since its arrival in the eighth century through the twentieth indicating career prospects in the days to come, inasmuch as they bring into sharper focus the scriptural face of Indian Arabic.

  • I an Ethnographic Investigation of Swara Among the Pashtun People of Jalalabad, Afghanistan
    i An Ethnographic Investigation of Swara among the Pashtun People of Jalalabad, Afghanistan: Exploring Swara as a Conflict Settlement Mechanism from the Perspective of Men By Masood Khan A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Department of Anthropology University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2016 by Masood Khan ii Abstract This thesis presents an ethnographic analysis of the practice of swara marriage among the Pashtun people of Jalalabad, Afghanistan, based on nine weeks of fieldwork in 2015. Swara is a form of compensation marriage practiced by Pashtun people in Pakistan and Afghanistan through which disputes between men are resolved through the giving away in marriage of girls, often minors, by guilty parties to victim parties. By employing practice theory and the theory of sacrifice, swara marriages are analyzed through the conceptualizations of honor, revenge, and ghairat (“bravery”). Focusing on six swara cases, the first half of the thesis explores the concepts of honor, revenge, and ghairat during the time of feuds. The second half of the thesis directly focuses on swara marriages and analyzes them through the concepts of symbolic capital and sacrifice. iii Acknowledgements Though only my name appears on the cover of this thesis, it is the product of efforts of many people. First and foremost, I would like to express my sincerest and deepest gratitude to my advisor, Dr. Ellen Judd. Her guidance and mentorship have been invaluable not only throughout this thesis project, but also over the past three years of my graduate program.

  • CONSTRUCTION of BENGALI MUSLIM IDENTITY in COLONIAL BENGAL, C
    CONSTRUCTION OF BENGALI MUSLIM IDENTITY IN COLONIAL BENGAL, c. 1870-1920. Zaheer Abbas A thesis submitted to the faculty of University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2010 Approved by: Yasmin Saikia Daniel Botsman Charles Kurzman ABSTRACT Zaheer Abbas: Construction of Bengali Muslim Identity in Colonial Bengal, c. 1870-1920 (Under the direction of Yasmin Saikia) This thesis explores the various discourses on the formation of Bengali Muslim identity in colonial Bengal until 1920s before it becomes hardened and used in various politically mobilizable forms. For the purpose of this thesis, I engage multiple articulations of the Bengali Muslim identity to show the fluctuating representations of what and who qualifies as Bengali Muslim in the period from 1870 to 1920. I critically engage with new knowledge production that the colonial census undertook, the different forms of non-fictional Bengali literature produced by the vibrant vernacular print industry, and the views of the English-educated Urdu speaking elites of Bengal from which can be read the ensemble of forces acting upon the formation of a Bengali Muslim identity. I argue that while print played an important role in developing an incipient awareness among Bengali Muslims, the developments and processes of identity formulations varied in different sites thereby producing new nuances on Bengali Muslim identity. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter INTRODUCTION……………………………………………………………..1 Debate on Bengali Muslim identity…………………………………..............3 I.
