Questions of the Grave Mar 16, 2017 The Questions of the Grave Mar 16, 2017 The Questions of the Grave- Ihsan ; TheLorem Questions Ipsum Dolor of the Grave MarchSpring 16, 2016 2017 There are levels in Islam: Islam, Iman, and Ihsaan. • From Hujj Wadaa’ – The Prophet said to the men –Ihtawsu with each other. When men meet, they tell each other to be good to your wife, women, etc. Meaning advise each other. You can see the effects the people when the father tells the son and the mother tells the son. • Because she’s in a prison with you=meaning she cannot marry someone else. She’s looking at you for provision, etc. • For example, if a women is at home, does a man always need to be with her? No. Maybe he can go to work or with his friends so that you can listen to class, etc. Men are created to work and women to take care of the house. Because naturally he might interfere too much. But when a man is home, the women has to be home with him and keep him company. Because this is your priority. For fasting, you need to take his permission. Also you need to understand, maybe he will give permission while he has needs because he doesn’t want to stop you from doing a good deed. • Allah says to the men to be with them in goodness except when they commit fahisha mubaiynah – tell them firmly. Then, separation in bed. Then, beating – which is does not leave a mark, not broken bones, not in the face, etc. This is when she did fahisha mubayinah- meaning an apparent sin, something bad. For example, the neighbors know, the parents know, etc. • In Islam, all the rules consider the emotion. Providing for her will make her feel happy. But when she commit fahisha, what will really hurt her? Separate from the bed. Some people abuse this and will sleep in a different room for a petty reason. This separation is a way of reforming her. So it should only be used to make a strong statement. • For example, a mother that always beat her kids will not understand when she will beat them for a grave mistake. Any mistake, big or small is the same reaction so it will not have the same affect. So these things need to be used when you want to make a point. • Fahisha is, for example, he found his wife talking and having a relationship on chat. He should not tell everyone. He should take these means. First to advise her (not tell someone else), then separate beds, then hit without leaving a mark (this is an example of when the Hadith explains the Quran). • If they listen to you--- meaning you are reforming not to punish her or revenge from her, but to reform her to obey Allah. After this discipline, if she obeys, then do not change your treatment with her. For example, do not abandon her. This needs Taqwa because a husband would be really hurt to see his wife talking to another man. • There are rights a husband has on the woman and the wife has on the man. It’s your right upon your wife, ie their duties to you. What is the right of the man on the wife, don’t let anyone who you hate to sit on your house. • What is they’re right upon you? For the men’s right, it didn’t say ihsan. But for the woman, the man needs to do Ihsaan because the man is the caretaker of the women. If you have girls or boys, you do ihsaan to go with the girls more because the boys don’t mind as much. For the men, they don’t need so many things. But Islam special care of the women. 2 ; TheLorem Questions Ipsum Dolor of the Grave MarchSpring 16, 20162017 • How do we know that I am going Ihsan? • The Prophet said, if that’s what your neighbor says. • Don’t make it difficult for your neighbor. The one that’s close to you will know how you really are, any one that company you for example husband, children. May Allah forgive us. • Even if you go to class and memorize and learn. But when you ask the neighbor, they will say, if they go to class, then they will not block my house. Maybe only one car will cause difficulty to the neighbors. • Ask your husband, neighbor, children, servant, if they say that you have ihsan or are good, then you are good. • Will I be accountable for things that I did in Jahiliyah? • If someone is not Muslim and doing sins because he didn’t have knowledge. But still when you are Muslim, you need Islam and Ihsaan. When his past sins will it not accountable against him? If when he enter Islam and try his best, then it will not be accountable what he did in the past. But if he doesn’t try, then he will be accountable of what he did before and after he became Muslim. Before he didn’t have knowledge. But now he has knowledge and that knowledge should change him. If it doesn’t change him, then he will take the sins from before and after. 3 ; TheLorem Questions Ipsum ofDolor the Grave MarchSpring 16, 2016 2017 Types of Writing - Those that make Ihsaan in the wudhu then pray 2 rakahs, facing with your heart and face. Jannah will be waajib from him meaning Jannah is obligatory for him. For Ihsaan Al-Wudhu! - Wudhu is resembling istighfaar because makes the sin quickly going. Ihsaan in the Wudhu affects goodness in other things. - Make wudhu- and say Ashhadu Al-Lailha il Allah, Muhammadan Abduhu wa Rasooluh.

There are Muslim perspectives that exist on the practice of veiling. The pro- veiling and anti-veiling. The latter had a backing of the feminists and other people, some of whom started associating veiling with a form of slavery, backwardness and oppression to a woman. The instruments for data collection comprised of questionnaires, oral interviews and focus group discussions. A total of 80 questionnaires were distributed to gather information. Three questionnaires were not returned. This represented a 3.75% of those who did not return the questionnaires. Respondents were ulamas, community elders, women who previously unveiled, women currently veiling, the Muslims and the non- Muslims.

  • Qawamah in Islamic Legal Discourse: an Analysis of Traditionalist and Modernist Approaches
    QAWAMAH in Islamic Legal Discourse: An Analysis of Traditionalist and Modernist Approaches Shagufta Omar* Abstract The status and role of women in Islamic societies has become one of the major topics of discussion ever since the women’s rights movement gained momentum globally under the auspices of the United Nations. While discussing the status and rights of women under Islam, it is important to differentiate between the Islamic teachings and the present status of women in the Muslim world with the vast diversity varying from culture to culture and often within the same culture. It is realized that the Islamic perspective concerning many aspects of women related issues of contemporary times is unclear rather misunderstood in the minds of non-Muslims as well as less informed Muslims. The position of women in Islam has been the subject of repeated controversy due to perceived misconception of the religion enforcing gender inequality and oppression for women particularly regarding the family relations. Criticism is raised either on account of doubts created by the Western mind set or on account of some misleading interpretations of basic provisions of the Quran and the hadith; or due to several malpractices or injustices induced by traditions or cultural influences. The present paper is aimed to highlight few deeply engraved misconceptions about the notion of Qawwamah (the family leadership) and in its light the husband wife relationship and family working in Muslim societies focusing Pakistan. It will be discussed in the light of the verse 34 of Sura Al Nisa which describes the dynamics of family relationships when two equal human beings join together to found an institution of family, the basic and vital unit of the society.

  • Of Lesbian Acts in Iran: Interpretative Moves, Hidden Assumptions, and Emerging Categories of Sexuality
    Journal of Lesbian Studies, 16:416–434, 2012 Copyright © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC ISSN: 1089-4160 print / 1540-3548 online DOI: 10.1080/10894160.2012.681263 The “Invention” of Lesbian Acts in Iran: Interpretative Moves, Hidden Assumptions, and Emerging Categories of Sexuality ELIZABETH M. BUCAR Department of Philosophy and Religion, Northeastern University, Boston, Massachusetts, USA FAEGHEH SHIRAZI Department of Middle Eastern Studies, The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, Texas, USA This article describes and explains the current official status of les- bianism in Iran. Our central question is why the installation of an Islamic government in Iran resulted in extreme regulations of sex- uality. The authors argue that rather than a clear adoption of “Islamic teaching on lesbianism,” the current regime of sexuality was “invented” through a series of interpretative moves, adoption of hidden assumptions, and creation of sexual categories. This article is organized into two sections. The first sets the scene of official sex- uality in Iran through a summary of (1) the sections of the Iranian Penal code dealing with same-sex acts and (2) government support for sexual reassignment surgeries. The second section traces the “in- vention” of a dominant post-revolutionary Iranian view of Islam and sexuality through identifying a number of specific interpretive moves this view builds on. KEYWORDS lesbianism, Islamic Republic of Iran, transsexuality, sexual ethics, Qur’an Before the 1979 Islamic revolution, back in the years when I worked as a judge in Iran, consensual sexual relations between adults did not figure in the country’s criminal code. The revolution enacted a version of Islamic law, which is extraordinarily harsh even by the standards of the Islamic world.

ISLAM AND HOMOSEXUALITY: RELIGIOUS DOGMA, COLONIAL RULE, AND THE QUEST FOR BELONGING SHAFIQA AHMADI * INTRODUCTION It is widely believed that homosexuality is forbidden in Islam. However, a distinction should be made between homosexual acts and homosexual persons. Under the laws of some Islamic countries, homosexual acts are considered a crime and are punishable by death or by isolation, if not actual criminal proceedings. Being a homosexual person and not publicly acting on homosexual feelings, however, is within the bounds of the law in many Muslim countries. These distinctions create a serious clash between Islam and homosexuality. Some argue that this clash is reconcilable, while others push to maintain the perceived severance. While there are liberal Muslims who accept homosexuality and consider it to be natural,1 other Islamic writings on homosexuality consider this identity a perversion that needs to * Shafiqa Ahmadi, J.D. is an Assistant Professor of Clinical Education at the Rossier School of Education at the University of Southern California.

  • The Obligatory Conditions for an Islamic Hijab
    http://www.saaid.net/ ?The Hijab .. Why Dr: Muhammad Ismail Translation & Comments Dr: Saleh As-Saleh & "A View Through Hijab" A Japanese Woman INTRODUCTION ALL praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds, the Most Merciful, the Beneficent, and the Master of the Day of Judgment. O Allah! Have Your Salat(1) and Salam (peace) and blessing upon Your slave and Messenger Muhammad and upon all of his companions. Extraordinary consideration has been given by the Islamic Law to women's affairs. Such consideration is sufficient to protect her chastity, to honor her and to secure her position in life. The "restrictions" placed upon her regarding her dress and the display of her beauty and ornament is only to guard against all ways of corruption arising from such dazzling displays. What Islam has established is not a restriction on the freedom of women but is a firm protection for her from falling down to the lowest levels of humility. In this work, we mention the virtues of a critical aspect of this protection: the HIJAB. The characteristics of the Hijab are discussed, bringing the glad tidings promised (by Allah) to those women adhering to it. We also point out the danger of dazzling displays of ornaments and beauty as well as the terrible repercussions in this life and in the hereafter for those who practice Tabar'roj. This is the second edition of this book. It comes at a time when more women are throwing away their revealing clothes, and wearing the Hijab. It goes to print when Muslim women are being raped and tom in their Hijabs in "civilized" Europe(2)! and when France(3) prevents Muslim women from wearing the Hijab at school.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 2 ABSTRACT The thesis deals with Mahmud Shaltut (Shaykh al-Azhar 1958- 63), an important contemporary Muslim scholar and reformer. Following a chapter on Shaltut's life and reform work at the Azhar, the material is divided into three major chapters, on tafsir, law and social issues. The chapter on tafsir describes the innovations of the Muhammad cAbduh school of tafsir and the work of certain key scholars prior to Shaltut, with a brief description of developments after Shaltut. A detailed analysis of his methodology with reference to form and content aims to show the extent of his contribution to that development. The chapter on law is divided into four sections: (1) the sources of law, where we see Shaltut's theoretical exposition of the workings of the Sharlca; (2) Shaltut's fatwas, which illustrate his practical application of those principles; (3) penal law, chosen as a case study because Shaltut deals with it in considerable depth, and (4) comparative jurisprudence, an area in which Shaltut took an especial interest in connection with his work for al-taqrib bayna al-madhahib (the coordination of the schools of law).

Though research indicates multiple causes of IPV, Islam is singled out as the main cause for violence against women in Muslim societies, based on the interpretation of verse 4:34 (which seemingly supports wife beating). This verse is often interpreted out of context and Islam’s position on IPV is confused with the issue of nushuz (contentiously translated as wife’s disobedience, flagrant defiance, and/or misbehavior). The lack of accurate translations compounds the problem for English readers. This article critically examines the legal meanings and implications of nushuz found in verse 4:34 within the context of IPV; and the authors contend that contextual understating of this is imperative for positive clinical engagement with Muslim clients.
