  • Prophets of the Quran: an Introduction (Part 1 of 2)
    Prophets of the Quran: An Introduction (part 1 of 2) Description: Belief in the prophets of God is a central part of Muslim faith. Part 1 will introduce all the prophets before Prophet Muhammad, may the mercy and blessings of God be upon him, mentioned in the Muslim scripture from Adam to Abraham and his two sons. By Imam Mufti (© 2013 IslamReligion.com) Published on 22 Apr 2013 - Last modified on 25 Jun 2019 Category: Articles >Beliefs of Islam > Stories of the Prophets The Quran mentions twenty five prophets, most of whom are mentioned in the Bible as well. Who were these prophets? Where did they live? Who were they sent to? What are their names in the Quran and the Bible? And what are some of the miracles they performed? We will answer these simple questions. Before we begin, we must understand two matters: a. In Arabic two different words are used, Nabi and Rasool. A Nabi is a prophet and a Rasool is a messenger or an apostle. The two words are close in meaning for our purpose. b. There are four men mentioned in the Quran about whom Muslim scholars are uncertain whether they were prophets or not: Dhul-Qarnain (18:83), Luqman (Chapter 31), Uzair (9:30), and Tubba (44:37, 50:14). 1. Aadam or Adam is the first prophet in Islam. He is also the first human being according to traditional Islamic belief. Adam is mentioned in 25 verses and 25 times in the Quran. God created Adam with His hands and created his wife, Hawwa or Eve from Adam’s rib.

  • Mistranslations of the Prophets' Names in the Holy Quran: a Critical Evaluation of Two Translations
    Journal of Education and Practice www.iiste.org ISSN 2222-1735 (Paper) ISSN 2222-288X (Online) Vol.8, No.2, 2017 Mistranslations of the Prophets' Names in the Holy Quran: A Critical Evaluation of Two Translations Izzeddin M. I. Issa Dept. of English & Translation, Jadara University, PO box 733, Irbid, Jordan Abstract This study is devoted to discuss the renditions of the prophets' names in the Holy Quran due to the authority of the religious text where they reappear, the significance of the figures who carry them, the fact that they exist in many languages, and the fact that the Holy Quran addresses all mankind. The data are drawn from two translations of the Holy Quran by Ali (1964), and Al-Hilali and Khan (1993). It examines the renditions of the twenty five prophets' names with reference to translation strategies in this respect, showing that Ali confused the conveyance of six names whereas Al-Hilali and Khan confused the conveyance of four names. Discussion has been raised thereupon to present the correct rendition according to English dictionaries and encyclopedias in addition to versions of the Bible which add a historical perspective to the study. Keywords: Mistranslation, Prophets, Religious, Al-Hilali, Khan. 1. Introduction In Prophets’ names comprise a significant part of people's names which in turn constitutes a main subdivision of proper nouns which include in addition to people's names the names of countries, places, months, days, holidays etc. In terms of translation, many translators opt for transliterating proper names thinking that transliteration is a straightforward process depending on an idea deeply rooted in many people's minds that proper nouns are never translated or that the translation of proper names is as Vermes (2003:17) states "a simple automatic process of transference from one language to another." However, in the real world the issue is different viz.

Yaqeen Institute for Islamic Research 3 | Theological Non-Commitment (Tawaqquf) in Sunni Islam and Its Implications for Muslim Acceptance of ​ Human Evolution Abstract Traditional Muslims have been resistant to the idea of human evolution, justifying their stance by the account of Adam and Eve being created without parents as traditionally understood from the apparent (ẓāhir ) meaning of the Qur’an and ​ Sunnah. The account of the creation of these two specific individuals belongs to a category of questions that Sunni theologians refer to as the samʿiyyāt, “revealed ​ ​ knowledge.” These are matters for which all knowledge comes exclusively from Islam’s sacred texts.

  • The Conceptual Elements of the Development Worldview in the Qur'an: a Study of Thematic Exegesis
    American International Journal of Social Science Vol. 2 No. 3; May 2013 The Conceptual Elements of the Development Worldview in the Qur’an: A Study of Thematic Exegesis Mohd Shukri Hanapi, Ph.D Lecturer of Islamic Development Management Program Centre for Islamic Development Management Studies (ISDEV) School of Social Sciences Universiti Sains Malaysia 11800 Penang, Malaysia. Abstract This paper aims to identify and analyze selected verses of the Qur'an that are related to the conceptual elements of the development worldview (tasawwur). Development worldview here refers to the comprehensive view and a true and correct picture of Islamic-based development (IbD). It aims to explain the whole characteristics of the IbD holistically, as the basis of all development activities in human life. In the Qur'an, the verses of the conceptual elements of the development worldview are actually located separately in many chapters (surah). The question then is which ones of the verses could be accounted as the verses of the development worldview? What are the conceptual elements of the development worldview in the Qur'an that could be constructed from these verses? This paper attempts to seek for the answer through three main purposes. Firstly, to identify the selected verses of the Qur'an that is related to the development worldview. Secondly, using a thematic exegesis approach, to analyze the identified Quranic verses of the development worldview; and thirdly, to develop the conceptual elements of the development worldview based on the identified verses of the Qur‘an. The main objects studied in this paper are the Quranic verses themselves.

How many prophets did God send to mankind? This is a debated issue, but what we know is what God has told us in the Quran. God says he sent a prophet to every nation. He says: Imam Ja'far ibn Muhammad al-Sadiq “For We assuredly sent amongst every People a Messenger, (with the command): ‘Serve God, and eschew Evil;’ of the people were [as] some whom God guided, and some on whom Error became inevitably (established). So travel through the earth, and see what was the Ibid. p. 200, no. 4 end of those who denied (the Truth)” (Quran 16:36) This is because one of the principles by which God operates is that He will never take a people to task unless He has made clear to them what His expectations are.

The examination and analysis is based on the selected verses of the Qur’an that are related to development worldview. In the Qur'an, the verses of the development worldview are actually located separately in many chapters (surah). The question then is which ones of the verses could be accounted as the verses of the development worldview? What are the conceptual elements of the development worldview in the Qur'an that could be constructed from these verses? This article attempts to seek for the answer through three main purposes. Firstly, to identify the selected verses of the Qur'an that are related to the development worldview. Secondly, to analyze the conceptual elements of the development worldview in the identified Quranic verses; and thirdly, to develop the conceptual elements of the development worldview based on the identified verses of the Qur‘an. All these are analyzed using a content analysis method. It will be shown that there are six conceptual elements of development worldview found in the Qur‘an. They are Oneness of Allah, servitude of self/worship to Allah, vicegerent on earth, natural resources, time frame – world of al-ruh, present world, and the world hereafter, and pleasures of Allah. It is based on these six conceptual elements of development worldview that the Islamic- based development (IbD) worldview is constructed.
