  • Question: Is There Any Narration in Sunnite Books Which Signifies
    Question: Is there any narration in Sunnite books which signifies distorting Quran? Answer: 1- it has been quoted from Ibn Abas that Umar ibn Khatab said in his oration that: “God truly sent Muhammad (s.a.w.) as a prophet and sent down the Quran to him, therefore it contains the Rajm (stoning adulterers) verse and we recited and memorized it, the Prophet (s.a.w.) throw stone at people who committed adultery and we imitated him and I fear that if it takes a long time, people say that: we did not find Rajm verse at the Quran, so because of the abandonment of an obligatory duty which has been sent down by God, they will go astray, thus if a married man or woman commits adultery, he/she should be stoned, whenever a clear proof be provided or woman becomes pregnant or he/she confesses to commit adultery, I swear to God if no one had said that Umar added more verses into the Quran, I would have truly written this verse into the Quran”. (1) This narration has been quoted in Musnad Ahmad ibn Hanbal, Sahih Muslim, Sahih Bukhari, Sunan Tirmizi, Mawtta Malik, Sunan ibn Majah and Sunan Darimi with differences in some terms. It has been quoted in Sharh Nuwi about Sahih Muslim that: this is the Rajm verse: ﺍﻟﺸﻴﺦ ﻭ ﺍﻟﺸﻴﺨﻪ ﺍﺫﺍ ﺯﻧﻴﺎ ﻓﺎﺭ ﺟﻤﻮﻫﻤﺎ ﺍﻟﺒﺘﺔ (2) “If an old man and an old woman committed adultery, surely they should be stoned”. Then he explains that this verse was abrogated but its command is valid.

  • An Analysis of the Sources of Intepretation in the Commentaries of Al-Tabari, Al-Zamakhshari, Al-Razi, Al-Qurtubi, and Ibn Kathir
    AN ANALYSIS OF THE SOURCES OF INTEPRETATION IN THE COMMENTARIES OF AL-TABARI, AL-ZAMAKHSHARI, AL-RAZI, AL-QURTUBI, AND IBN KATHIR Ismail Lala INTRODUCTION I propose, in this study, to scrutinise the sources of the tafsirs (sing. tafsir, pl. tafasir) of Abu Ja‘far Muhammad ibn Jarir al-Tabari (d. 310/923), Abu al-Qasim Mahmud ibn ‘Umar al-Zamakhshari (d. 538/1143-4), Fakhr al- Din Muhammad ibn ‘Umar al-Razi (d. 606/1209-10), Abu ‘Abd Allah Muhammad ibn Ahmad al-Qurtubi (d. 671-1273), and ‘Imad al-Din Isma’il ibn ‘Umar ibn Kathir (d. 774/1373). All of these exegetes outline, in their respective introductions, whom they consider to be competent commentators of the Qur’an. Al-Tabari affirms the status of the Companions of the Prophet as being the foremost in the interpretation of the Qur’an. Many accounts are related about the profundity of their understanding of the divine text. He writes, Muhammad ibn ‘Ali ibn al-Husayn ibn Shaqiq al- Marwazi informed us, “I heard my father say, ‘al-Husayn ibn Waqid told us, ‘al-A‘mash told us on the authority of Shaqiq, on the authority of Ibn Mas‘ud, he said, ‘If someone among us memorised ten verses, they would not proceed beyond them (lam yujawizuhunna) until he knew their meaning, and acted upon them.’”1 Al-Tabari shortly names some leading sources. Ibn ‘Abbas and Ibn Mas‘ud, somewhat predictably, head the list, after which Mujahid, al- Dahhak, al-Sha‘bi, al-Suddi, and Qatada are mentioned. Their inferiority to Ibn ‘Abbas and Ibn Mas‘ud, however, is explicitly highlighted.2 It is evident from this roster that, according to al-Tabari, the first four generations’ interpretation of the Qur’an is the most correct and as such, they should be the ones an exgete turns to in his commentary.

  • TEORI HUKUM JA'fariyah (Analisis Historis Mazhab Fikih Ja'far As
    eISSN: 2549-4198 ALHURRIYAH : Jurnal Hukum Islam pISSN: 2549-3809 Vol. 03., No. 02. ,Juli-Desember 2018 TEORI HUKUM JA’FARIYAH (Analisis Historis Mazhab Fikih Ja’far As-Shadiq Dan Implikasinya Pada Produk Hukumnya) Bahrul Hamdi Dewan Masjid Tablighiyah Garegeh, [email protected] Ayen Saputra Pengadilan Agama Lubuk Sikaping, [email protected] Diterima: 28Juli 2018 Direvisi : 10 November 2018 Diterbitkan: 30 Desember 2018 Abstract There are two major streams in Islam which up to now have a very significant influence in the Islamic community, namely the Shiite sect and the Ahlus Sunnah wa al-Jama'ah sect. Apart from differences in theological discourse, the differences between these two sects also touch the jurisdictions (fiqh). The most obvious differences in fiqh products, for example, appear in the permissibility of marriage if married (contract marriage). Some non-fundamental differences occur in other discourses, such as in prayer, azan, etc. This article intends to discuss legal theory that animates legal products in the Ja'fari school. The presence of Imam Ja'far in his capacity as a respected founder of the Ja'fari school, both Sunni and Shiite, will be discussed specifically in this paper. In addition, this article also discusses a number of fiqh Ja'fari products which may be fundamentally different from the Sunni fiqh products, including about khumus and mut'ah. The legal sources used in the Ja'fari school are not much different from the legal sources used in Sunni schools, which revolve around the Qur'an, Sunnah, Ijma', and Intellect. Although there is an understanding of the different definitions of the sources of the law, this does not indicate that Syi'ah and Sunni have different principles in determining the law.

  • The Formation of the Ja Far Ī Shi a Islamic School of Law from Its
    The Formation of the Ja ʿfar ī Shi ʿa Islamic School of Law from its Inception to the Occultation A F Z A L S U M A R Introduction The history of the development of the Ja ʿfar ī Shi ʿa Islamic legal school has always fascinated me, all the more so when I continuously observed that existing academic works in the English language purporting to discuss the origins and development of the Islamic legal schools almost always ignored discussions of the inception and development of this school. This is even though Imam al-Ṣādiq (d. 148 AH / 765 AD) and the other Shi ʿa Imams both prior to and succeeding him, who contributed to the Ja ʿfar ī madhhab ’s development, were well known and respected contemporaries of the scores of legists who formed personal schools of law during the first and second century of the hijrah , many of which schools are now defunct except for the four existing Sunni schools. Indeed many of these early legists including the eponyms of the four existing Sunni legal schools had scholarly interactions with and transmitted from the Imams ʿAl ī ibn al-Ḥusayn (d. 95 AH / 713 AD), Mu ḥammad ibn ʿAl ī (d. 114 AH / 743 AD), Ja ʿfar ibn Mu ḥammad, and ʿAl ī ibn M ūsā (d. 203 AH / 818 AD), as will be shown during the course of this essay, and held them in high repute. Yet even though the four Sunni legal schools had and continue to have many areas of differences between them, with some of them rejecting the tools of legal deduction prominently used by another, their development tends to be discussed together in one volume and mention will even be made of those legists whose legal schools are non-existent today, yet Imam al-Ṣādiq or al-Bāqir will hardly get a passing mention! Indeed, I was surprised at how studiously Wael Hallaq avoided mentioning Imam al-Ṣādiq or al-Bāqir throughout his otherwise worthy book on the history of Islamic law.

  • The Early Muslim (The Arab) Contribution to the Development of Historiographical Traditions and Methods: a Critical Appraisal
    Humera Naz Humera Naz* The Early Muslim (The Arab) Contribution to the Development of Historiographical Traditions and Methods: A Critical Appraisal This article aims to highlight impacts and contribution of the early Muslims (The Arabs) to the field of historiography in terms of different traditions and methods. The early Muslims or the Arab contribution is significant for the genesis and introduction of some emerging trends and traditions in this field. This research is fundamentally based upon analysis of the early Muslim historical literature which offers an overview of the sirah, hadith, maghazi literature concerning the characteristics adopted from the pre-Islamic historical traditions. The paper explores the genesis and major trends set up during the formative phase of early Muslim (The Arab) historiography in terms of authentication and assessment of historical data. The paper tries to highlight some emerging categories in history introduced by the early Muslim historians besides the non-Arab (the Persian) contribution in the field of history writing. * Teaching Faculty, Department of History (General), University of Karachi, Karachi, Pakistan 105 Journal of Social Sciences and Humanities: Volume 21, Number 1, Spring 2013 Introduction he term Tarikh (History) is derived from the Arabic root ‘arkh’ that means ‘recording the time of an event.’ It T actually means the ‘time’ at which an event takes place.1 On the other side, it termed as ‘era’ or ‘chronology’.
