Signed by the final examining committee: Lynda Clarke__________________________ Chair Shaman Hatley___________________Examiner Richard Foltz__________________________Examiner Lynda Clarke__________________________Supervisor Approved by ________________________________________________ Chair of Department or Graduate Program Director ________________________________________________ Dean of Faculty Date ________________________________________________ Fatima as a Motif of Contention and Suffering in the Early Islamic Sources Vinay Khetia Abstract The death of the Prophet Muhammad in 10/632 left a vacuum of authority in the early Muslim community. Ever since, Muslims of various sectarian persuasions have produced conflicting versions of the events which took place in the wake of Muhammad’s death and the behaviour of certain prominent personalities. This dissertation examines the role played by the surviving daughter of the Prophet, Fatima, during this early, tumultuous period. The objective is not to present a ‘historical’ reconstruction of events, but rather to explore how the formative Islamic histories (2nd- 4th/8th-10th centuries) and Shiite hadith (2nd-6th/8th-12th centuries) creatively shaped the image of Fatima in her conflict with the first caliph and successor to Muhammad, Abu Bakr, and his allies. -

Originally, the existence of the man was a point of consensus amongst historians; however, it was in the 18th century when Orientalists noticed a peculiar pattern regarding his reports which caused a break in the consensus. These narrations came from a single source, namely, Sayf bin Omar Al-Tameemi, a historian that is regarded as weak in the eyes of the scholars of Hadith. This discovery led to the publishing of articles and then books on the subject, which ultimately led Shias, like Murtadha Al-`Askari to adopt the view that Ibn Saba’ was a figment of Al- Tameemi’s imagination. -

Middle-East Journal of Scientific Research 22 (2): 225-232, 2014 ISSN 1990-9233 © IDOSI Publications, 2014 DOI: 10.5829/idosi.mejsr.2014.22.02.21850 Corporate ibadah: an Islamic Perspective of Corporate Social Responsibility 1Mustaffa Mohamed Zain, 23Faizah Darus, Haslinda Yusoff, 4Azlan Amran, 56Hasan Fauzi, Yadi Purwanto and 7Dayang Milianna Abang Naim 1,2,3,7,Accounting Research Institute (ARI) and Faculty of Accountancy, Universiti Teknologi Mara, Shah Alam, Malaysia 4School of Management, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Malaysia 5Faculty of Economics and Business, Sebelas Maret University, Indonesia 6Faculty of Psychology, Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta, Indonesia Abstract: Purpose-The objective of this paper is to explore the Islamic principles and law and formulate a conceptual framework of corporate social responsibility (CSR) based on Islamic values and beliefs. An Islamic CSR (i-CSR) framework is vital in guiding the CSR strategies, policies and practices of Islamic institutions. Design/Methodology/Approach-This notion of CSR in Islam is proposed by incorporating the concept of tawhid and integrating the principles of Maqasid Syariah (Islamic Law) and Maslahah (public good) which completes the mission of mankind on earth i.e. the absolute submission to his obligations in the performance of ibadah, dakwah and as a khalifah. Practical Implications-The establishment of the framework provides a holistic guidance based on Islamic beliefs, values and concepts which should be integrated with and embedded as part of the overall governance and accountability of institutions. This model is practical not only for Islamic organizations and institutions but also for other entities that subscribe to the beliefs that the function of business is a manifestation of the act of devotion to God, i.e. -
Ibadah (Worship) in Islam: a Study of Some Relevant Qur’Anic Text
CONCEPT OF ‘IBADAH (WORSHIP) IN ISLAM: A STUDY OF SOME RELEVANT QUR’ANIC TEXT Samee-Ullah Bhat1, Mohmad Ilham Shiekh2 1 Ph.D Candidate, Shah-i-Hamadan Institute of Islamic Studies, University of Kashmir, Main Campus, Srinagar, (India) 2Ph.D. Research Scholar, Centre for Shaikh-ul Aalam Studies (CSAS), Markaz-i Noor, University of Kashmir, Srinagar (India) ABSTRACT „Ibadah is the purpose of creation. „Ibadah in Islam is a comprehensive concept that embraces all human endeavours. Whatever humans do in sincerity and without disobeying any of Allah‟s commands is a form of worship and they will be rewarded for it. The concept and purpose of worship in Islam is unparallel to any other religion in existence. It combines the mundane with the spiritual, the individual with the society, and the internal soul with the external body. Worship has a unique role in Islam, and through worship, a person is regarded as a true Muslim who accords his entire life to the Will of Allah (s.w.t). This article attempts to describe the concept of „Ibadah (Worship) in Islam in a precise way. Keywords: Human nature, „Ibadah, Islam, Qur‟an, Worship I. INTRODUCTION Allah (s.w.t) created the whole mankind only for „Ibadah (worship) as Allah (s.w.t) says in the holy Qur‟an: “And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me”.1 O mankind, worship your Lord, who created you and those before you, that you may become righteous”.2 The message of all the previous prophets was the same that worship none except Allah (s.w.t). -

Build Students' Character Through Fasting at Muslim
QUALITY Volume 5, Nomor 1, 2017: 40-56 BUILD STUDENTS’ CHARACTER THROUGH FASTING AT MUSLIM SCHOOL Oki Dermawan UIN Raden Intan Lampung [email protected] Abstrak Kecerdasan Spiritual Seharusnya menjadi perhatian utama dalam pendidikan. Hal ini dilakukan dengan mengajarkan nilai etika agama dengan contoh dari keluarga, sekolah dan masyarakat. Melalui ibadah ibadah, seperti berpuasa sebulan di bulan Ramadhan (menahan diri dari makan dan minum atau apapun yang mungkin menyalahartikan puasa, sepanjang hari mulai fajar hingga terbenam di bulan Ramadhan). Puasa, membaca dan memahami kitab suci al- Qur'an, lingkungan fisik dan sosial yang kondusif. Ketika spiritualitas para siswa diorganisasikan, akan lebih mudah untuk mengatur aspek kepribadian lainnya. Puasa selama bulan Ramadhan adalah momentum untuk membangun karakter. Puasa akan membiarkan orang memiliki prinsip, kesabaran, ketulusan yang kuat, dan tidak menyerah dan memiliki solidaritas dan saling mencintai. Prinsip itu kini mulai lenyap. Momen Ramadan juga bisa menjadi agenda sekolah untuk membangun karakter, dengan media ini, siswa diharapkan untuk mengingat dan kembali ke identitas sejati yang sakral dan agung, dengan nilai kemanusiaan dan kebijaksanaan. Bila nilai-nilai kodrat manusia kembali ke jalur, maka kesetaraan dan solidaritas akan mewarnai hari-hari para siswa. Puasa memiliki dimensi horisontal dengan kehidupan sosial yang kuat Seperti amal, menyajikan makanan kepada anak yatim, bersabar dalam menghadapi masalah. Ada beberapa nilai bagus untuk membangun karakter siswa. Memang tepat jika saat puasa Ramadhan akan diwariskan di sekolah sebagai program setelah bulan Ramadhan dalam membentuk karakter siswa melalui kegiatan sunnah puasa (tidak wajib puasa) dua kali seminggu Senin-Kamis, atau Berikan siswa kebebasan berunding untuk menentukan berapa kali dalam seminggu atau setiap bulan mengadakan sunnah puasa bersama, gagasan puasa Sunnah sangat berpengaruh pada terbentuknya karakter siswa secara efektif.
