  • The Naqshbandi-Haqqani Order, Which Has Become Remarkable for Its Spread in the “West” and Its Adaptation to Vernacular Cultures
    From madness to eternity Psychiatry and Sufi healing in the postmodern world Athar Ahmed Yawar UCL PhD, Division of Psychiatry 1 D ECLARATION I, Athar Ahmed Yawar, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signed: 2 A BSTRACT Problem: Academic study of religious healing has recognised its symbolic aspects, but has tended to frame practice as ritual, knowledge as belief. In contrast, studies of scientific psychiatry recognise that discipline as grounded in intellectual tradition and naturalistic empiricism. This asymmetry can be addressed if: (a) psychiatry is recognised as a form of “religious healing”; (b) religious healing can be shown to have an intellectual tradition which, although not naturalistic, is grounded in experience. Such an analysis may help to reveal why globalisation has meant the worldwide spread not only of modern scientific medicine, but of religious healing. An especially useful form of religious healing to contrast with scientific medicine is Sufi healing as practised by the Naqshbandi-Haqqani order, which has become remarkable for its spread in the “West” and its adaptation to vernacular cultures. Research questions: (1) How is knowledge generated and transmitted in the Naqshbandi- Haqqani order? (2) How is healing understood and done in the Order? (3) How does the Order find a role in the modern world, and in the West in particular? Methods: Anthropological analysis of psychiatry as religious healing; review of previous studies of Sufi healing and the Naqshbandi-Haqqani order; ethnographic participant observation in the Naqshbandi-Haqqani order, with a special focus on healing.

  • Islam and the Challenge of Democratic Commitment
    Fordham International Law Journal Volume 27, Issue 1 2003 Article 2 Islam and the Challenge of Democratic Commitment Dr. Khaled Abou El-Fadl∗ ∗ Copyright c 2003 by the authors. Fordham International Law Journal is produced by The Berke- ley Electronic Press (bepress). http://ir.lawnet.fordham.edu/ilj Islam and the Challenge of Democratic Commitment Dr. Khaled Abou El-Fadl Abstract The author questions whether concurrent and simultaneous moral and normative commit- ments to Islam and to a democratic form of government are reconcilable or mutually exclusive. The author will argue in this Article that it is indeed possible to reconcile Islam with a commitment in favor of democracy. The author will then present a systematic exploration of Islamic theology and law as it relates to a democratic system of government, and in this context, address the various elements within Islamic belief and practice that promote, challenge, or hinder the emergence of an ideological commitment in favor of democracy. In many ways, the basic and fundamental ob- jective of this Article is to investigate whether the Islamic faith is consistent or reconcilable with a democratic faith. As addressed below, both Islam and democracy represent a set of comprehensive and normative moral commitments and beliefs about, among other things, the worth and entitle- ments of human beings. The challenging issue is to understand the ways in which the Islamic and democratic systems of convictions and moral commitments could undermine, negate, or validate and support each other. ISLAM AND THE CHALLENGE OF DEMOCRATIC COMMITMENT Dr. Khaled Abou El Fadl* The question I deal with here is whether concurrent and simultaneous moral and normative commitments to Islam and to a democratic form of government are reconcilable or mutually exclusive.

  • First Caliph of Islam: Abu Bakr As-Saddiq Life and His Love with Prophet (PBUH) (Prepared by Dr. Umer Farooq)
    1 First Caliph of Islam: Abu Bakr As-Saddiq Life and His Love with Prophet (PBUH) (Prepared by Dr. Umer Farooq) If you do not help your Prophet, (it does not matter): Allah helped him before, when the disbelievers forced him to go away from his home, and he was one of the two: when the two were in the cave; when he was saying to his Companion, "Be not worried: indeed Allah is with us. Then Allah sent down peace of mind to him 2 from Himself, and helped him with the forces you did not see, and made the word of the disbelievers abased. and it is the word of Allah alone which is supreme. And Allah is Mighty, Wise. March forth whether you be light or heavy, and exert your utmost in Allah's Way with your wealth and your lives: this is best for you, if only you knew (9-40) Dear brothers and sisters, it is very important to remember the lives of sahaba, it is very important to share the stories about sahaba because those people were early witness of our religion. Sahaba learned Quran and Islam directly from Prophet (PBUH). Sahaba adopted their lives according to sunnah of our beloved Prophet (PBUH) and that's why Prophet ordered us to follow the lives of Sahaba. Prophet (PBUH) said "Verily, my companions are like stars, whichever of them you use as a guide, you will be rightly guided." Dear brothers and sisters, from the life of Prophet (PBUH) you can learn about how to please Allah, but if you want to know how to please Prophet (PBUH) then you have to know about the lives of Sahaba.
