Its author, Imam al-Nawawi, needs no intro­ duction to Western Muslims, and the translator, Musa Furber, is indeed to be congratulated on his choice of this work and its fe­ licitous rendering into English. Its publication is a long-awaited event for both traditional Islamic knowledge and the point of that knowledge, which is practice. Allah Himself has used the word tibyan to describe the Holy Quran, the source of all knowledge, which He says He revealed tibyanan Ii kulli shay' or as a clarification of everything. That is, it exposits in detail the things no human being can know, not the mere physical and intellectual dimensions of man in the world, which anyone can findout, but the very context of man and his reality, the "why" of being itself, whence man came, why he ex­ ists, runs his full term, dies, and what he shall meet on the other side of the impenetrable veil of death. In the Quran, our reality itself is a sign, an ayah, something that points beyond itself for those who realize what it signifies, namelythe tawbid or Oneness of Allah. The exposition of these facts in the form of a divine scripture, which no human being could possibly produce, makes it the Supreme Book for mankind. The present work was designed and written to explain to men and women how best to benefit from the Book of Allah. The blessing of the Quran is that whoever recites it as it should be recited is changed by it, and brought by imperceptible degrees to XI ETIQUEITE WITH THE QURAN see why everything is the way it is. The seed of this knowledge is a humble intention to draw nearer to the Divine, the soil in which it takes root are reverence, awe, and love, and its fruit is the CEr­ titude in the eternal truths of faith that bring fe licity in this world and the next. It is well known to everyone conversant with the Islamic dis­ ciplines that the learning of many things does not teach wisdom, and that traditional books do not reveal their secrets or bestow their benefits to those without the key to them. This key is ad­ ab, the "right way of doing things," rendered in the title as "et­ iquette," but in its comprehensiveness a perennial difficulty to translate into English. Books, especially sacred ones, give their knowledge to those of adab, and Westerners who know some­ thing about the sciences of Islam have been waiting for a book like this in English for a long time. NUH HA MIM KELLER AMMAN IO JUNE 2003 XII PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION In the Name of God, Most Merciful and Compassionate This edition is Etiquette With the Quran includes the same con­ tents as the firstedition published by Starlatch Press in 2003. Due to negligent backups on my part, the text here had to be recov­ ered from a manuscript that was one or two revisions before the finalone printed in the firstedition . While I have done my best to duplicate Starlatch's masterful editorial work and to enter in all known mistakes to the firstedition, no human-save the Prophets (peace and blessings of God be upon them)-is saved from erring, and no book-save the Quran-is free from errors.

  • Can Islam Accommodate Homosexual Acts? Qur’Anic Revisionism and the Case of Scott Kugle Mobeen Vaid
    ajiss34-3-final_ajiss 8/16/2017 1:01 PM Page 45 Can Islam Accommodate Homosexual Acts? Qur’anic Revisionism and the Case of Scott Kugle Mobeen Vaid Abstract Reformist authors in the West, most notably Scott Kugle, have called Islam’s prohibition of liwāṭ (sodomy) and other same-sex be - havior into question. Kugle’s “Sexuality, Diversity, and Ethics in the Agenda of Progressive Muslims” ( Progressive Muslims : 2003) and Homosexuality in Islam (2010) serve as the scholarly center for those who advocate sanctioning same-sex acts. Kugle traces the heritage of the Lot narrative’s exegesis to al-Tabari (d. 310/923), which, he contends, later exegetes came to regard as theologically axiomatic and thus beyond question. This study argues that Kugle’s critical methodological inconsistencies, misreading and misrepre - sentation of al-Tabari’s and other traditional works, as well as the anachronistic transposition of modern categories onto the classical sources, completely undermine his argument. Introduction Islam, like other major world religions (with the very recent exception of certain liberal denominations in the West), categorically prohibits all forms of same- sex erotic behavior. 1 Scholars have differed over questions of how particular homosexual acts should be technically categorized and/or punished, but they Mobeen Vaid (M.A. Islamic studies, Hartford Seminary) is a Muslim public intellectual and writer. A regular contributor to muslimmatters.org, his writings center on how traditional Islamic norms and frames of thinking intersect the modern world. As of late, he has focused on Islamic sexual and gender norms. Vaid also speaks at confessional conferences, serves as an advisor to Muslim college students, and was campus minister for the Muslim community while a student at George Mason University.

He competed with philosophers with the power of his knowledge. He was a famous religious scholar of the Abbasi period. During the heyday of Islam, two schools of thought became famous. One school of thought became famous as the Motazilies and the other discipline of thought became known as the Ash'arites. Abu al-Hasan al-Ash'ari remained a supporter of the Mu'tazilites for forty years. Then there was a disagreement with Mu'tazilah about the issue of value. Imam al-Ghazali is one of the leading preachers of his Ash'arite school of thought. Abu al-Hasan al-Ash'ari inherited a passion for collecting books. As a child, he used to collect books from his hobby. Sometimes there are very difficult places in the path of knowledge, only a real student can pass through these places safely. He has been remembered by the Islamic world in very high words. There was a student who drank the ocean of knowledge but his thirst was not quenched.

  • False Accusations Against the Hanaabilah
    hanaabilah.co m http://www.hanaabilah.com/2012/07/false-accusations-against-hanaabilah.html False Accusations Against the Hanaabilah I decided to write this af ter being f alsely accused of kuf r by not f ollowing Imam Ahmad in the "correct way", In which case the person posted this Article to show what Imam Ahmad "Really" believed. I realize the article is old, however, the age of it doesn't prevent people f rom relying on it, and even though I didn't search to f ind if it was ever answered, Insha'a Allah what I wrote here will benef it people in order to expose the mistakes the Original author presented as the truth. From here on out the Color RED in Italic f ont will symbolize the Original Authors words. Nuh Ha Mim Keller Said: ""Regarding the question of whether Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal (d. 241/855) was an anthropomorphist, this is something that has been asked since early times, particularly since someone forged an anthropormorphic tract called Kitab al-sunna [The book of the sunna] and put the name of Imam Ahmad’s son Abdullah (d. 290/903) on it.I looked this book over with our teacher in hadith, Sheikh Shu‘ayb al-Arna’ut, who had examined it one day, and said that at least 50 percent of the hadiths in it are weak or outright forgeries. He was dismayed how Muhammad al-Qahtani, the editor and commentator, could have been given a Ph.d. in Islamic faith (‘aqida) from Umm al-Qura University in Saudi Arabia for readying for publication a work as sadly wanting in authenticity as this.

  • Al Azhar - Study Exchange Programme
    Al Azhar - Study Exchange Programme Egypt and England – a significant study exchange: Christians and Muslims learning about each other’s faith A significant development and strengthening of the relationship between the Anglican Communion and Al Azhar Al Sharif, the centre of Islamic learning in Cairo, Egypt, has taken place during November through two significant study visits. The first is that of the Grand Mufti of Egypt, His Eminence Dr Ali Gomaa, who delivered a talk at the University of Cambridge during the first week of November. A longer stay for study, of a month’s duration, was made by three younger Muslim scholars (El Sayed Mohamed Abdalla Amin, Farouk Rezq Bekhit Sayyid, Sameh Mustafa Muhammad Asal, graduate teaching assistants at the Faculty of Languages and Translation, Department of Islamic Studies in English, Al Azhar University) to Ridley Hall Theological College, Cambridge, England, November 1-29. Ridley Hall is well-known as a training centre for future Anglican clergy. Study exchange linked to Anglican Communion Al Azhar dialogue This double visit, of both Dr Gomaa, an eminent international Muslim scholar, and of three future Muslim religious leaders, is linked to the study exchange agreement signed by the Anglican Communion and Al Azhar Al Sharif in September 2005 at Lambeth Palace and ratified in the presence of Sheikh Al Azhar, Dr Mohamed Tantawy, at a meeting held at Al Azhar in September 2006. This process of study exchange has been developed to further the aims of the initial agreement between the Anglican Communion
