He was born blind. His mother would make excessive duā for him until one night she saw the Prophet Ibrahīm (alayhi salām) in her dream. The Prophet Ibrahīm (alayhi salām) gave her glad tidings that Allah had restored her son’s eyesight because of her excessive duā. Imām Bukhāri passed away on Friday, the 1st of Shawwāl, 256 H (the night before Eid al-Fitr). (Al-Hady al-Sāri – pg.477). Bardizba, the ancestor of Imām Bukhāri was a fire worshipper. In Bukhāra, Bardizba meant a farmer. Mawlānā Badr-e-Alam Sāhib stated that he met a Russian alim who pronounced it as Bardazba and he said that it means an expert. -

British Muslims Caught Amidst Fogs—A Discourse Analysis of Religious Advice and Authority
religions Article British Muslims Caught Amidst FOGs—A Discourse Analysis of Religious Advice and Authority Usman Maravia 1,* , Zhazira Bekzhanova 2 , Mansur Ali 3 and Rakan Alibri 4 1 ESRC Centre for Corpus Approaches to Social Science (CASS), Lancaster University, Lancaster LA1 4YW, UK 2 English Language Program, Astana IT University, Nur-Sultan 010000, Kazakhstan; [email protected] 3 Centre for the Study of Islam in the UK, School of History, Archaeology and Religion, Cardiff University, Cardiff CF10 3EU, UK; [email protected] 4 Department of Languages and Translation, University of Tabuk, Tabuk 47512, Saudi Arabia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: This paper discusses the symbolic capital found within Islamic documents that were circu- lated in the UK during the COVID-19 outbreak. Specifically, the work explores “fatwas” and “other” similar documents as well as “guidance” documents (referred to as FOGs) that were disseminated in March–April 2020 on the internet and social media platforms for British Muslim consumption. We confine our materials to FOGs produced only in English. Our study takes its cue from the notion that the existence of a variety of documents created a sense of foggy ambiguity for British Muslims in matters of religious practice. From a linguistic angle, the study seeks to identify (a) the underlying reasons behind the titling of the documents; and (b) the construction of discourses in the documents. Our corpus-assisted critical discourse analysis (CA-CDA) found noticeable patterns that hold symbolic capital in the fatwa register. We also found that producers of “other” documents imitate the fatwa register in an attempt to strengthen the symbolic capital of their documents. -

Demystifying the Muslimah: changing subjectivities, civic engagement and public participation of Muslim women in contemporary South Africa Fatima Asmal A dissertation submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Social Sciences (Masters) in the Programme of Historical Studies, School of Social Sciences, College of Humanities, University of KwaZulu-Natal, 2015 1 I, Fatima Asmal (941300984), hereby declare that this is my own work and that all sources that I have used have been acknowledged and referenced. No part of the dissertation has been submitted for any other degree. Any views expressed in the dissertation are those of the author and are in no way representative of those of the University of KwaZulu-Natal. The dissertation has not been presented to any other University for examination, either in the Republic of South Africa, or overseas. Signature: Date: 2 ABSTRACT Demystifying the Muslimah: changing subjectivities, civic engagement and public participation of Muslim women in contemporary South Africa This study interrogates the validity of generalisations about Muslim women. While Islam is undoubtedly important in the lives of most practising Muslim women, rather than regarding their actions and behaviours as governed by Islamic law, the study seeks to historicise their experiences through a life history approach of five women engaged in the civic life of their communities (however widely this may be defined) and in public participation in various ways. Using oral history as a methodology, it investigates what drew these women to civic participation; the nature of their participation in terms of the organisations they are members of and the activities they are involved in; the stimulus for civic engagement and public participation and their achievements in this regard as well as the impact of participation on their identities and subjectivities. -
The Quality of Life, Social Care and Family Relationships of Older Unmarried Saudi Women Living in Jeddah: a Qualitative Study
The Quality of Life, Social Care and Family Relationships of Older Unmarried Saudi Women Living in Jeddah: A Qualitative Study Seham Hassan Salamah Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Sociology Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences University of Surrey September 2017 82,201 - word count Abstract __________________________________________________________________ Changes in the Saudi family structure are having profound effects on the current cohort of older Saudi women. This is reflected in living arrangements whereby family patterns have been transformed from extended to nuclear ones. Previous social research has not examined the current situation of older Saudi women, with little known about their Quality of Life (QoL). This study explores the QoL of older unmarried Saudi women by analysing their family relationships, social lives and daily activities. It examines how family relationships, social integration, health and financial aspects are influenced by social policies and gender-related issues. The study is based on in-depth interviews with a purposive sample of 50 widowed, divorced and never-married women aged 60-75 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia from a range of socio-economic classes; 25 lived alone and 25 lived in inter-generational households. Gender segregation was a decisive factor that adversely affected the QoL of interviewees. They were dependent on their family or maids socially, instrumentally, and some financially on the ‘Goodwill’ of their children or relatives. Older divorced women were particularly likely to experience financial and social problems. Lower class and many middle class older women who lived alone were dissatisfied and suffered from depression, isolation and loneliness, whereas higher class women living alone demonstrated greater autonomy, independence and life satisfaction. -
