    SHAH WALIULLAH'S CONTRIBUTION TO HADITH LITERATURE A CRITICAL STUDY ABSTRACT THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF iortor of f l|tloHopl|i| IN ISLAMIC STUDIES BY MUHAMMAD MOSLEH UDDIN UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF PROF. ABDUL ALI D.LItt. CHAIRMAN. DEPARTMENT OF ISLAMIC STUDIES DEPARTMENT OF ISLAMIC STUDIES ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 2003 ABSTRACT The present work seeks lo investigate and study critically the contribution of Shah Waliuliah Muhaddith Dihiawi to Hadith literature. Shah WaJiuilah bin Abdur Rahim ai-'Umarial-Dihlawi(lil4H,-1176H./i703-1762) was lived in the eighteenth century C.E., an age of down fall of Muslim power, political dissetllement, social degeneration and educational backward- ness and indigence. Shah Waliuliah Dihiawi was an unparalleled Islamic scholar, thinker and reformer in Indian sub-continent. He spent the whole of his life in the service of religion and education and worked for the interest of Muslim-society. His sole anxiety all the time had been to see the Muslims powerful, strong and ruling based upon the Islamic system. He tried all his best to restore the Muslims' power and reform the society and revive the pure religion and establish an accurate and complete Islamic educational system.' Shah Waiiuiiah completed his education under his father Shaikh Abdur Rahim (d.li31H./1718) and other scholars in India and served as the teacher in Rahimiyah Madrasah which was established by his father in Delhi for twelve years. During this long teaching period he studied deep and widely and taught the students different religious and rational subjects, so he got the opportunity to reflect over a variety of issues.

  • Islamic Studies
    Page 11 Vision Students.in Islamic Studies are expected to develop both an all-inclusive knowledge of Islamic intellectual history and religious thought, as well as mastery of a particular field and the indispensable tools for critical erudition on Islam. We offer an open intellectual environment which produces a structure of study that will enable future generations of scholars to become specialists and experts in Islamic thoughts, culture and ideology. These graduates will be well-equipped to tackle the controversial issues and challenges facing Muslim communities across the globe. Mission The insidious influence of secular materialism and its value system dangerously challenges religious minded individuals and communities. In such a situation it is necessary to teach and promote the fundamental principles of Islamic Faith and virtuous conduct. The Islamic studies curriculum focuses on personality and character development with considerable attention to the real needs and concerns of students. Moreover, it aims at developing the critical thinking and problem-solving skills needed to function successfully as Muslims in society. We make our best effort to foster the prerequisite skills needed to produce competent Muslims who are capable of presenting and defending the genuine and pristine teachings of Islam. Our mission is to positively affect and transform the world and prepare young men and women who are capable of carrying out this mission — morally, intellectually and emotionally. \ I ¢04.1 „..0 ,.,,,,. ,„ 6 .,..,o..v. 2.c,‘ o0 e.4e, Scheme of Studies with detailed Course Outlines (Compiled By: Dr Ata ur Rahman, Dr.Janas Khan & Saeed Akhtar, Deptt: of Islamic Studies UOM Page 12 LAYOUT FOR BS (4 YEAR) ISLAMIC STUDIES AS APPROVED BY HEC Compulsory Elective Courses General Courses Major Courses Requirements within the Major 9 courses 7-8 courses 22-26 courses 4 courses 21-24 25 Credit hours 36-42 Credit hours 12 Credit Hours Credit hours Cr.

  • I Radical Politics and the Urdu Literary World in the Era Of
    Radical Politics and the Urdu Literary World in the Era of South Asian Nationalisms c.1919 - 1952 A dissertation submitted by Sarah Waheed In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History TUFTS UNIVERSITY February 2011 Advisor: Dr. Ayesha Jalal i Abstract This dissertation is a historical study of the cultural and intellectual trends amongst Urdu intellectuals in South Asia during the decades immediately preceding and following the attainment of formal independence in 1947. I argue that linking literary radicalism in late colonial North India to a much longer history of the Urdu language and cultural milieu provides fresh insights for understanding nationalisms in South Asia. The intellectual and cultural history of the upper middle-class strata of Muslim society from cities such as Delhi and Lahore reveals that writers from Muslim backgrounds—representing a relatively small fraction of the entire anti-colonial Indian intelligentsia—came to play a very strong role in the radical, left-leaning literary landscape. I show that a minority community, ostensibly organized around a ‘religious’ identity, became the votaries of ‘secular’ nationalisms—not because of any neat separation between realms of “religion” and concepts of the “secular”—but because of a long-standing history of culturally informed religious social identity to which ethical sensibility (in comportment, character, and moral conduct) was central. These radical writers, known as progressive writers, challenged not only colonial rule, but also the indigenous social hierarchies in their own (Muslim) communities including conservative sexual politics, as well as the culturally exclusive nationalisms of the Indian right.
