Signifying Notiiing That Which Is Not There
liUlillIMI.IIJ thresholds 19 Signifying Notiiing This article seeks to ground itself In two literal understandings of the invisible, that is, as something, which is simply not there, or as some- thing which has been hidden. It works out from the intuitive response to the human body as a commonplace object with which we are all inti- mately familiar, and of which we commonly expected a state of com- plete presence to be normal. The body is of course also an object to which strategies of covering and exposure are applied, in a highly differ- entiated set of systems across times and cultures. That Which Is Not There A discomforting thought. I had sufficient elbow room to begin writing this on a Greyhound bus only because the young woman seated next to me had no arm from above the elbow, or at least, from above where her elbow should have been. That which is not there grasps, uninvited, our attention. j^ ^^^ ^^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^ ^^^ other. Another story about a chair and a missing arm. There is a chair, designed by Lutyens that has but one arm. One cannot sit in this chair without assuming a certain pose, legs crossed, left hand resting, fingers curled, on one's right thigh, right hand, raised to the chin, perhaps fram- ing one's mouth, holding the others' attention to one's face, one's con- versation. It is difficult for anyone at all comfortable within his or her own skin not to assume that pose, or the demeanor which that pose accompanies. If one is not comfortable, the only choice is to sit bolt "We deliberately left out one arm- upright, hands together on one's lap, perhaps fidgeting the one with the rest to give more ease to the body. -
Pre-Islamic Arabia
Pre-Islamic Arabia The Nomadic Tribes of Arabia The nomadic pastoralist Bedouin tribes inhabited the Arabian Peninsula before the rise of Islam around 700 CE. LEARNING OBJECTIVES Describe the societal structure of tribes in Arabia KEY TAKEAWAYS Key Points Nomadic Bedouin tribes dominated the Arabian Peninsula before the rise of Islam. Family groups called clans formed larger tribal units, which reinforced family cooperation in the difficult living conditions on the Arabian peninsula and protected its members against other tribes. The Bedouin tribes were nomadic pastoralists who relied on their herds of goats, sheep, and camels for meat, milk, cheese, blood, fur/wool, and other sustenance. The pre-Islamic Bedouins also hunted, served as bodyguards, escorted caravans, worked as mercenaries, and traded or raided to gain animals, women, gold, fabric, and other luxury items. Arab tribes begin to appear in the south Syrian deserts and southern Jordan around 200 CE, but spread from the central Arabian Peninsula after the rise of Islam in the 630s CE. Key Terms Nabatean: an ancient Semitic people who inhabited northern Arabia and Southern Levant, ca. 37–100 CE. Bedouin: a predominantly desert-dwelling Arabian ethnic group traditionally divided into tribes or clans. Pre-Islamic Arabia Pre-Islamic Arabia refers to the Arabian Peninsula prior to the rise of Islam in the 630s. Some of the settled communities in the Arabian Peninsula developed into distinctive civilizations. Sources for these civilizations are not extensive, and are limited to archaeological evidence, accounts written outside of Arabia, and Arab oral traditions later recorded by Islamic scholars. Among the most prominent civilizations were Thamud, which arose around 3000 BCE and lasted to about 300 CE, and Dilmun, which arose around the end of the fourth millennium and lasted to about 600 CE. -

Haj Al-Qiran Hajj Al-Qiran Involves Combining Umrah and Hajj, with Only One Ihram for Both
Haj Al-Qiran Hajj al-Qiran involves combining Umrah and Hajj, with only one Ihram for both Stages of Al-Qiran In this section we give details of each stage of Hajj al-Qiran and provide advice on the rituals that must be performed if the Hajj is to be completed satisfactorily. Ihram Bathe yourself (ghusl). Put on the white clothing of Ihram. The white garment of the Ihram consists of two pieces of white cloth: the cloth covering the upper part of the body is the Rida'; the cloth covering the lower part of the body is the Izar. After donning the white garment of Ihram and verbally declaring the intention to perform Umrah and the specific type of Hajj, recite the Talbiyah. Now that you are in a state of Ihram, you are subject to a number of prohibitions. You must NOT: wear sewn clothes cut or pluck hair clip nails cover your head wear perfume engage in sexual intercourse Other prohibitions include entering into a marriage contract, hunting, or cutting down trees in the Sacred Precinct. Performing the Welcome Tawaf and Sa'y The correct procedure for these rites is set out in the Rituals of Umrah but we repeat them here for the convenience of the user: Enter the Holy Sanctuary (al Masjid al Haram), preferably right foot first through the Bab as-Salam gate, reciting the Talbiyah: 'Labbayk, Allahumma Labbayk. Labbayk, La Shareeka laka labbayk. Innal-hamda wan-ni'mata laka wal-mulk La shareeka lak' The above means: 'Here I am O Allah, (in response to Your call), here I am. -

THE ARAB AND ARAB ISLAMIC AND MUSLIM ARCHITECTURE OF THE OLD HOLY MASJID AND AL-KA'ABAH A Monadic Interpretation of the Two Holy Buildings by Eduard Franciscus Schwarz A Thesis Submitted to Massey University Wellington Campus, New Zealand in Part Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Philosophy Massey University of Wellington 2005 The Holy Complex in Makkah al-Mukarramah in Saudi Arabia Acknowledgments Although I belong to those who were indirectly indoctrinated by the Bauhaus, Architecture has moved well away from the Bauhaus architecture and Bauhaus philosophy into that can be referred to as labyrinth architecture with a poetic base. However, the tendency to perceive architecture as a body poetic needs to be queried. That architecture had moved away from the architecture advocated by the Bauhaus was particularly realized during my study at Massey University, Wellington Campus, during 2004. Contact with art students and staff, trained in art and fashion were very useful. Without the help of others, the writing of the thesis would have been more difficult. My thanks go to Professor Duncan Joiner, who was my supervisor. I am also thankful to the Massey University Library, Wellington Campus that carried out a literature search in support of this work. Massey University also provided me with computers for the writing of the work, Brian Halliday, now retired, needs mentioning here, so does Ken Elliot for the constant help he gave computer-wise. -
The History of Implementation of Pilgrimage in the Pagan Era
International Journal of Academic Research in Business and Social Sciences 2017, Vol. 7, No. 12 ISSN: 2222-6990 The History of Implementation of Pilgrimage in the Pagan Era 1Rizalman Muhammad, 2Faiz Hakimi Mat Idris, 3Kamaliah Salleh, 2Ahmad Zahid Salleh, 2Mohamad Zaidin Mohamad 1Institut Pendidikan Guru, Ipoh Campus, Malaysia 2Faculty of Islamic Contemporary Studies, UniSZA, Malaysia 3Faculty of Law, Accountancy & International Relations, UniSZA, Malaysia Email: [email protected] DOI: 10.6007/IJARBSS/v7-i12/3636 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.6007/IJARBSS/v7-i12/3636 Abstract The first pilgrimage performed by the Prophet Abraham which was in the 20th century BC had eventually been mixed with polytheism and heresy elements before Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) was sent to this world. In this regard, this article aims to reveal the ritual of the hajj in the ancient Arab society which is different from the current practice of Muslims nowadays. This article is a qualitative study using content analysis. The finding reveals that although Arab community remained to believe in Allah, but in view to the long gap between the two ages of Prophet Abraham and Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H.), they had mixed up the implementation of a true and wrong rituals in their pilgrimage. Keywords: Pilgrimage, Pagan Arabs, Kaaba, Mecca Introduction The term Jahiliyyah is derived from jahl which connotes a description of pre-Islamic Arab society who were ignorance of the God, the prophets, the way of life, and who were also arrogantly and imperiously proud of their lineage (Ibn Manzur n.d.). It was a dark age of the Arab history with the absence of divine light to guide their faith, and their lives were fully deviated and strayed from the religious method. -

MECCA: Cosmopolis in the Desert
MECCA: Cosmopolis in the Desert THE HOLY CITY: ARCHITECTURE AND URBAN LIFE IN THE SHADOW OF GOD Salma Damluji Introduction In 1993, I was asked to head the project for documenting of The Holy Mosques of Makkah and Madinah Extension. The project was based at Areen Design, London, the architectural office associate of the Saudi Bin Ladin Group. Completed in Summer 1994, the research and documentation was published in 1998.1 Several factors contributed to the complexity of the task that was closely associated with the completion of the Second Saudi Extension that commenced in 1989 and was completed in 1991. Foremost was the nature of the design and construction processes taking place and an alienated attempt at reinventing “Islamic Architecture”. This was fundamentally superficial and the architecture weak, verging on vulgar. The constant dilemma, or enigma, lay in the actual project: a most challenging architectural venture, symbolic and equally honourable, providing the historic occasion for a significant architectural statement. The rendering, it soon became apparent, was unworthy of the edifice and its historical or architectural connotations. In brief an architectural icon, the heart of Islam, was to be determined by contractors. The assigned team of architects and engineers responsible were intellectually removed and ill equipped, both from cultural knowledge, design qualification or the level of speciality required to deal with this immense, sensitive and architecturally foreboding task. The Beirut based engineering firm, Dar al Handasah, was originally granted the contract and commenced the job. We have no information on whether the latter hired specialised architects or conducted any research to consolidate their design. -

Its outcome will determine the future direction of the Muslim world.” Building moderate Muslim Networks, RAND Institute The concept of ‘islah’ (reform) is a concept unknown to Muslims.
