  • The Rise of Islam As a Constitutive Revolution
    Chapter 5 Revolution in Early Islam: The Rise of Islam as a Constitutive Revolution SAÏD AMIR ARJOMAND We conceive of revolution in terms of its great social and political consequences. In a forthcoming comparative and historical study of revolutions, I contrast to the state-centered revolutions of modern times with another ideal-type of revolution which I call the ‘integrative’ revolution (see the Appendix). This ideal type of revolution – which is an aspect of all revolutions – expresses two simple ideas: revolutions 1) bring to power a previously excluded revolutionary elite, and 2) enlarge the social basis of the political regime. This makes integrative revolu- tions not just political but also ‘social revolutions.’ Integrative revolution is in turn divided into three subtypes, the two sub-types I derive from Aristotle-Pareto and Ibn Khaldun are so labeled. The ‘constitutive’ type is my own invention, of- fering the sharpest contrast to the state-centered or ‘Tocquevillian’ type in that it is the typical pattern of radical change in the political order through the enlarge- ment of political community in ‘stateless societies,’ be they of 6th century BCE Greece or 7th century CE Arabia. In addition to this structural typology, we need to come to terms with the mo- tives and goals of the revolutionaries as historical actors, and here I do what may be politically incorrect from the viewpoint of the theory community by using the term teleology, not in the strict Aristotelian sense but rather as a term denoting the directionality of revolution. Through teleology, I seek to capture the distinc- tive direction of a revolution, its intended or intentionally prefigured conse- quences.

Battles Of The Prophet In Seerah Curriculum A Critical Evaluation Of Its Validity-- Palarch’s Journal Of Archaeology Of Egypt/Egyptology 17(4), 1233-1242. ISSN 1567-214x Key Words: Prophet's Conquests;Seerah Curriculum;Violence ABSTRACT Teaching and learning through stories is an accepted principle. The curriculum requires highlighting historical stories, tales of national heroes and anecdotes of the glorious past of nations. This is general false assumption that war and victory stories evoke feelings of terrorism. How can stories of national victors who fought against oppressors, usurpers and invaders be instigators of terrorism? The Messenger of Allah fought for peace. He fought for the oppressed class. He accepted the bloodshed only when there was no other way. But some sections have raised the question that the true stories of the Prophet's conquests incite Muslim students to war. However, violent people are found in different races, religions and countries around the world Who go astray for any reason but no one learned violence from a curriculum story. This research paper addresses the question that terrorism is not related to the stories of Prophetic battles taught in the curriculum.

  • The Jihād of the Caliphs and the First Battles of Islam: Memory, Legitimization and Holy War, from Cordoba to Tinmal
    The Jihād of the Caliphs and the First Battles of Islam: Memory, Legitimization and Holy War, from Cordoba to Tinmal JAVIER ALBARRÁN Universidad Autónoma de Madrid1 ([email protected]) Abstract This paper analyzes how the memorialization and commemoration of early conflicts in Islamic history influenced the performance and legitimization of jihād, especially on the part of caliphs who ruled in the Islamic West. Jihād is defined here as an ideology, a discursive tool that appealed to accepted and shared sacred elements; created a framework for the justification of specific actions on the part of the caliphs; and generated new authority. The paper also discusses the importance of the maghāzī and futūḥ, as well as its later impact, reception, reinvention, and re-contextualization. The focus of this study, however, is the key role that military expeditions during the founding period of Islam played in the conceptualization of jihād, which turned primitive episodes of war into legitimizing elements by utilizing the image of ideal behavior enjoyed by Muḥammad and the rāshidūn within the Umma. This study considers the Cordoban Umayyad caliphate and the Almohad movement, two periods during which al-Andalus was ruled directly by a caliph. By considering both chronological and geographical contexts, the paper analyzes the commemoration of the first battles of Islam, wherein both caliphates in the Islamic West presented themselves as a renewal of the early “golden age” of Islam. A comparison between the caliphates illuminates their similarities and differences. n the year 840/1411 Ibn Nuḥās died near Damieta while defending the town of al-Ṭīnah1 against a crusader attack.

  • BATTLE of HUNAYN 1. How Did the Muslims React When Ambushed by the Opposing Army? They Were Able to See Part of the Opposing Army at the End of the Hunayn Valley
    BATTLE OF HUNAYN 1. How did the Muslims react when ambushed by the opposing army? They were able to see part of the opposing army at the end of the Hunayn valley. They could not see the greater part of the enemy’s army who were hiding behind the valley. They were totally surprised by the sudden attack, fell into chaos and began fleeing the battleground. 2. What caused the Muslim army to gain control of the battle? Rasoolullah called on the retreating Muslims to gather around him. He said, “I am the Messenger of Allah. No doubt I am the grandson of Abdul Mutallib. Just come back to me, oh servants of Allah”. The Prophet’s great courage, therefore, made the Muslim army gain control over the situation. 3. What was the reason behind the Hawazin accepting Islam? The Prophet’s prayer, “Oh Allah guide the hearts of Thaqeef to Islam” and the will of Allah caused Malik ibn Awf, the leader of Hawazin, to embrace Islam first. Then the tribe of Hawazin embraced Islam due to the influence of their leader. 4. Who was Ash-Shaymaa and how did she locate the Prophet? Ash-Shaymaa was the foster daughter of Haleemah and so the Prophet’s foster sister. She, being one of the captives of Hunayn, was able to locate the Prophet recalling the bite mark he had given her a long time ago when they were playing as very small children. 5. Why were their women captive after the battle? When Malik ibn Awf organised his soldiers, he also took women to be part of his army.

  • Positive Thinking and Action in Islam: Case Studies from the Sirah of Prophet Muhammad
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 5, No. 1; January 2015 Positive Thinking and Action in Islam: Case Studies from the Sirah of Prophet Muhammad Salih Yucel Associate Professor Centre for Islamic Studies and Civilization Charles Sturt University Australia Abstract The Prophets are embodiments of positive thinking and positive action. This was a necessity for the fulfillment of their mission. Their relationship with God and the resulting knowledge and understanding of the universe strengthened their capacity in regards to positive thinking and action. This work analyses three caseswhich capture the positive thinking and positive action style of Prophet Muhammad. These include his relationships with two great enemies of Muslims, Khalid ibn Walid, Abu Sufyan, and the young Abu Mahzurah who mocked an Islamic symbol. The Prophet’s interaction and mention of these people are guides to how Muslims should respond to negativity and hatred. This article argues that a solid understanding of the Prophet’s positive thought and action is lacking within many Muslims, and this in turn leads to great misunderstandings and misapplications of faith. Keywords: Positive thinking, Prophet Muhammed, Islam, sunnah, negative thinking Introduction The Prophets are embodiments of positive thinking and positive action1. This was a necessity for the fulfillment of their mission. Their relationship with God and the resulting knowledge and understanding of the universe strengthened their capacity in regards to positive thinking and action. There is a strong correlation between the two. The deeper a person’s understanding of the macrocosm, also known as the book of the universe, and the microcosm, which is the human being,2 the greater his or her degree of positive thinking.
