The History of Al-Tabari The History of al-Tabari The Battle of al-Qadisiyyah and the Conquest of Syria and Palestine The Battle of al-Qadisiyyah and the Conquest of Syria and Palestine Volume XII Translated by Yohanan Friedmann The present volume of the History of al-TabarT deals with the years 14 and 15 of the Islamic era, which correspond to A.D. 635-637. The nascent Islamic state had just emerged victorious from the crisis that followed the Prophet's death in 632 and had suppressed what was known as the riddab ("apostasy") rebellion in the Arabian peninsula . Under the leadership of 'Umar b. al- Khattab, the second caliph, or successor to the Prophet Muhammad, the Muslims embarked on the conquests that would soon transform the whole of the Middle East and North Africa into an Arab empire. Most of the present volume describes the battle of al-Qadisiyyah, which took place on the border between the fertile Iraqi lowlands (al-sawid) and the Arabian desert and resulted in the decisive defeat of the Persian army. The Muslim victory at al-Qadisiyyah heralded the downfall of the Sasanian dynasty , which had ruled Persia and Meso- potamia since A.D., the third century ; it also paved the way for the conquest of Iraq and facilitated Islamic expansion into Persia and beyond. The volume also deals with the conquest of Syria and Palestine and the expulsion of the Byzantines from those regions. Particular attention is devoted to the traditions related to the conquest of Jerusalem at the hands of 'Umar b. al-Khattab, the first Muslim prayer on the Temple Mount, and its transformation into an Islamic sanctuary. The volume contains colorful descriptions of the various battles, expatiations on the bravery of the Muslim warriors, and portrayals of the futile negotiations between the parties before the beginning of hostilities. It thus provides the reader with a fascinating insight into the later Muslim traditions related to these crucial events of early Islamic history.

IDS38.11 909'.1-dczo 90-1032.6 CIP For Zafrira, Yasmin, Tamar e Preface THE HISTORY OF PROPHETS AND KINGS (Ta'rikh al-rusul wa'1-mu- luk) by Abu Ja`far Muhammad b. Jarir al-Tabari (839 923), here ren- dered as The History of al-Tabari, is by common consent the most important universal history produced in the world of Islam. It has been translated here in its entirety for the first time for the benefit of non-Arabists, with historical and philological notes for those in- terested in the particulars of the text. Al-Tabari 's monumental work explores the history of the ancient nations, with special emphasis on biblical peoples and prophets, the legendary and factual history of ancient Iran , and, in great detail, the rise of Islam, the life of the Prophet Muhammad , and the history of the Islamic world down to the year 9 r S. The first volume of this translation contains a biography of al-Tabari and a discussion of the method, scope, and value of his work. It also provides information on some of the technical considerations that have guided the work of the translators. The History has been divided here into 39 volumes, each of which covers about two hundred pages of the original Arabic text in the Leiden edition. An attempt has been made to draw the dividing lines between the individual volumes in such a way that each is to some degree independent and can be read as such. The page numbers of the Leiden edition appear on the margins of the translated volumes. Al-Tabari very often quotes his sources verbatim and traces the chain of transmission (isndd) to an original source . The chains of transmitters are, for the sake of brevity, rendered by only a dash (-) between the individual links in the chain. Thus, "According to Ibn viii Preface Humayd-Salamah-Ibn Ishaq" means that al-Tabari received the report from Ibn Humayd, who said that he was told by Salamah, who said that he was told by Ibn Ishaq and so on. The numerous subtle and important differences in the original Arabic wording have been disregarded. The table of contents at the beginning of each volume gives a brief survey of the topics dealt with in that particular volume . It also in- cludes the headings and subheadings as they appear in al-Tabari's text, as well as those occasionally introduced by the translator. Well-known place names, such as, for instance, Mecca, Baghdad, Jerusalem, Damascus, and the Yemen, are given in their English spellings. Less common place names, which are the vast majority, are transliterated. Biblical figures appear in the accepted English spelling. Iranian names are usually transcribed according to their Arabic forms, and the presumed Iranian forms are often discussed in the footnotes. Technical terms have been translated wherever possible, but some, such as sirham and imam , have been retained in Arabic forms. Others that cannot be translated with sufficient precision have been retained and italicized, as well as footnoted. The annotation aims chiefly at clarifying difficult passages, iden- tifying individuals and place names , and discussing textual difficul- ties. Much leeway has been left to the translators to include in the footnotes whatever they consider necessary and helpful. The bibliographies list all the sources mentioned in the annota- tion. The index in each volume contains all the names of persons and places referred to in the text, as well as those mentioned in the notes as far as they refer to the medieval period . It does not include the names of modern scholars. A general index, it is hoped , will appear after all the volumes have been published.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • The Prophet's Family
    The Prophet’s Family The Prophet’s Family Line No 1 – Adam to the Banu Khuza’ah (Based on material gathered from Islamic and Biblical sources) by Sr. Ruqaiyyah Waris Maqsood. The family line of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is one of the most cherished in history. It is extremely well-known from Muhammad to Adnan, but there are variants from Adnan to Isma’il. From Isma’il back to Adam, the line corresponds exactly to the names of the descendants of Adam as given in the Old Testament of the Bible. The generally accepted line of Muhammad goes like this: Muhammad b. Abdullah b. Shaybah (Abdu’l Muttalib b. Amr (Hashim) b. Mughirah (Abdu’l Manaf) b. Zayd (Qusayy) b. Kilab b. Murrah b. Ka’b b. Lu’ayy b. Ghalib b. Fihr b. Malik b. Nadr b. Kinanah b. Khuzaymah b. Amir (Mudrika) b. Ilyas b. Mudar b. Nizar b. Ma’add b. Adnan b. Udd (Udad) b. Muqawwam b. Nahur b. Tayrah b. Yarub b. Yashjub b. Nabut b. Isma’il b. Ibrahim b. Tarih (Azar) b. Nahur b. Sarugh b. Ra’u b. Falikh b. Aybar b. Shalikh b. Arfakhshadh b. Sam b. Nuh b. Lamk b. Mattushalakh b. Akhnukh b. Yard b. Mahla’il b. Qaynan b. Yanish b. Shith b. Adam. Arabs and Jews both descended from the same Patriarch Page 1 of 56 The Prophet’s Family It is commonplace for people to think of the Jews and the Arabs as completely different peoples, and a study of the Old Testament reveals an ongoing conflict between the Banu Isra’il and their enemies on both sides of the river Jordan (which sadly continues into this 21st century!).
