  • Following Sayyida Zaynab: Twelver Shi'ism in Contemporary Syria
    Following Sayyida Zaynab: Twelver Shi‘ism in Contemporary Syria by Edith Andrea Elke Szanto Ali-Dib A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for the Study of Religion University of Toronto © Copyright by Edith Szanto, 2012 Following Sayyida Zaynab: Twelver Shi‘ism in Contemporary Syria Edith Szanto Ali-Dib Doctor of Philosophy Centre for the Study of Religion University of Toronto 2012 Abstract Outsiders, such as Lebanese and Syrian Shi‘is often refer to Twelver Shi‘is in the Syrian shrine-town as ‘traditional,’ and even ‘backward.’ They are not the only ones. Both Saddam Hussein and Ayatollah ‘Ali Khamenei have called the bloody flagellation practices, which have only increased in popularity in Sayyida Zaynab over the past few decades, ‘backward’ and ‘irrational.’ Why do these outsiders condemn these Twelver Shi‘is and their Muharram rituals? Why are ‘traditional’ practices popular in the Syrian shrine-town of Sayyida Zaynab? What does ‘tradition’ mean in this context? This dissertation begins with the last question regarding the notion of ‘tradition’ and examines seminary pedagogy, weekly women’s ritual mourning gatherings, annual Muharram practices, and non-institutionalized spiritual healing. Two theoretical paradigms frame the ethnography. The first is Talal Asad’s (1986) notion that an anthropology of Islam should approach Islam as a discursive tradition and second, various iterations of the Karbala Paradigm (Fischer 1981). The concepts overlap, yet they also represent distinct approaches to the notion of ‘tradition.’ The overarching argument in this dissertation is that ‘tradition’ for Twelver Shi‘is in Sayyida Zaynab is not only a rhetorical trope but also an intimate, inter-subjective practice, which ties pious Shi‘i to the members of the Family of the Prophet.

  • Annual Report (2014 to 2015)
    www.sufra-nwlondon.org.uk Registered Charity No. 1151911 Annual Report 2014-2015 In the last year, Sufra NW London provided emergency food aid for 3,858 people and supported 10,024 people through welfare support and training. Give together | Eat together What does “Sufra” mean? The word “Sufra” originates from the Persian meaning “table-setting” or “that on which food is served”. It carries similar connotations in Arabic, Turkish and Urdu. Traditionally, the “Sufra” was made of a round cloth or woven palm-leaves, although more recently the term is used in cultural settings to describe long rolls of plastic or paper placed on the floor within a community building to serve large numbers of guests. The term strongly indicates hospitality and generosity towards guests through the service of food and refreshments. Food Bank users are referred to us as “guests” – we consider each family that attends the food bank to be recipients of our hospitality. A traditional “sufra” in the Indian Subcontinent Letter of Support OFFICE OF THE LEADER OF BRENT COUNCIL Brent Civic Centre Engineers Way Wembley Middlesex HA9 0JF 020 8937 2121 www.brent.gov.uk On behalf of Brent Council, I would like to congratulate Sufra NW London for its valuable service in supporting families living in food poverty. I have been very impressed by the passion, commitment and determination of your staff and volunteers whose efforts are testimony to the charity’s achievements over the past year. Whilst I continue to be moved by the tragic stories of families struggling to afford the basic amenities of life, I am reassured that Sufra NW London provides an essential safety net for local people, ensuring that they can live with dignity and access services that allow them to reengage with mainstream opportunities.
