Conclusion 187-192 Bibliography 193-202 The present research work seeks to investigate "Indian Mushm Women's Contribution to Islamic Studies Since 1947". No work has so far been done on the subject. It is entirely a new field of research work. So far the material of this work is concerned, siroe it is basically a field work, we have visited all the Universities in India where Islamic studies is taught and at the same time we have consulted all other primary and secondary sources available related to this field. The tradition of women's education among the Muslims is as old as their religion Islam. It is the religious necessity for the followers of Islam. Islam is a religion of peace and tolerance and has always advocated the cause of human rights^ brotherhood, fireedom and equality and firatemity. The Quran's first revelation laid great emphasis on the value of knowledge, science and learning. The Holy Quran declares, "Read: in the name of the Lord who createth; createth man fi-om a clot. Read: and thy Lord is the Most Bounteous who teacheth by the pen. Teacheth man that which he knew not." [SCVI; 1-5] Every Muslim must be enlightened to contribute to the development and progress of human knowledge, scientific research and technology. To elevate the womens position and dignity they were given full rights of education. Keeping in view the above facts, a humble attempt has been made to throw light on the system of 'Madrasa Education of Women' their contribution to 'Islamic Studies' by writing books, research articles and many other academic activities related to Islam. This study has concentrated to the contribution of Indian Muslim women to Islamic Studies. The thesis contains ~ -/chapters, which are as follows: Chapter First is on "Introduction" The Sftep/7ci Chapter is on "Muslim Women Education in Islam: The Historical Development", throws light on the education system of Islam, its patronage and development from the Prophetic period to present day and till the day of resurrection. « In Chapter f^ivd critically evaluates, "Contribution of Indian Muslim Women to Madrasa Education", this chapter critically highlights the development of various Madrasas, for Muslim women throughout the country. And chapter fbtir^critically examines "Contribution of Indian Muslim Women to the Discipline of Islamic Studies", this chapter critically deals all aspects of Indian Muslim women's contribution to Islamic Studies.

((Parveen (Banc) VI Cftapter Tirst Introduction Islam is the final form of religion, revealed from Almighty Allah for the welfare of mankind. It is complete, comprehensive and perfect code of numpn life, taking into consideration every aspect, every sphere and every field of human life viz., social, political, economic, cultural. Intellectual, Physical, spiritual. Moral (ethical) etc. i.e., it guides man in totality. It also represents a comprehensive code of civilization encompassing all the dimensions of human thought and life. Holy Quran stresses to achieve knowledge and there is in no room for illiteracy. Prophet (S.A.W.) not only encouraged education but also made elaborate arrangements for religious education. Prophet (S.A.W) was an ardent advocate of the pursuit of knowledge and education. The tradition of women's education among the Muslims is as old as their religion Islam because of religious necessity with the followers of Islam. Islam gives utmost importance to the acquisition of knowledge. The first revelation of the Holy Quran (96:1-5) begins with the word 'Read'. There are many verses in the Quran with usual frequency. Islam considers "Ilm' as a value and an act of Ibadah only if it is pursued for benefit of the as a value and an act of Ibadah only if it is pursued for benefit of the individual or the community and ultimately for gaining the pleasure of Allah. Knowledge offers a basis for discriminating between what is relevant and irrelevant, significant & insignificant virtuous and vicious, good and bad, right and wrong and above all between Haqq and Batil. Not only the holy Quran Provides guidelines for the acquisition of knowledge but also the ahadith of Prophet (SAW) emphasized to acquire, knowledge and according to a tradition "even if it is in China".

    P: ISSN NO.: 2394-0344 RNI No.UPBIL/2016/67980 VOL-I* ISSUE- VIII* November- 2016 E: ISSN NO.: 2455-0817 Remarking An Analisation Evolution of Kashmiriyat (A Case of Socio-Cultural Assimilation During 14th-15th Century) Abstract Kashmiriyat means the uniqueness of Kashmiries in social, religious and cultural aspects. Their centuries-old traditions, spirit of respect for one another and their festivals, rituals, traditions, religiosity, morality and beliefs. The word Kashmiryat has always been used to determine the peace and tolerance whenever Kashmir has witnessed social, political and religious tensions. Kashmiriyat is shaped during 14th to 16th century by the teachings of famous Shaviate Saint Lal Ded, Sufi Saint Sheikh Noor-ud-Din Noorani and under the leadership of Sultan Zain-ul-Abidin and Akbar the great. Since 1980s the Kashmiriyat has been dropping its identity or essence due to unfortunate reasons. Kashmir became a battleground of competing ideologies about Kashmiriyat for Indian nationalists and separatists. In this write up our attempt is to explore that spirit of Kashmiriyat which has lost somewhere in the violent atmosphere. It is mandatory to explore the real prospects of Kashmiryat under historical evidences, what it was, what it stands and what it ought to be.

Hamidia Arts & Commerce College, Bhopal (M.P.),India. 2 Assistant Professor Dept. of History Institute for Excellence in Higher Education Bhopal (M.P.),India. 3 Professor Dept. of History, Govt. Hamidia Arts & Commerce College, Bhopal (M.P.) ,India. *Corresponding Author: Javid Ahmad Reshi Abstract Environmental protection is a practice of protecting the natural environment at individual, national or global level. Due to overpopulation, consumption of natural resources is raising day by day resulting environmental degradation. The present study is an attempt to bring the limelight on the ecological perspective of the contribution of Sheikh Nur-ud-Din Rishi (R.A)* in wisely guiding our values and attitude towards the preservation of environment. He conveys in his message, that cultivation and supply of good material is essential for the existence of life which depends on plants for which forests play a great role. Sheikh Nur-ud-Din Rishi (R.A) led to the compilation of an inventory of plant species with the broad objective for sustainable development. He emphasized mainly on the preservation of forest and the ways to overcome the environmental issues. He also gives message on moral and ethical grounds against damages or destruction of plants in general and herbal plants in particular. He has symbolically used these plants to convey some higher message of morality and eco-consciousness to the society.

    Classic Poetry Series Lalleshwari - 100 poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: PoemHunter.Com - The World's Poetry Archive Lalleshwari (1320 – 1392) Lalleshwari (््््््््््) (1320–1392), also known as Lalla, Lal Ded or "Lal Arifa".She was a mystic of the Kashmiri Shaivite sect, and at the same time, a Sufi saint. She is a creator of the mystic poetry called vatsun or Vakhs, literally 'speech'. Known as Lal Vakhs, her verses are the earliest compositions in the Kashmiri language and are an important part in history of Kashmiri literature. Lal Ded and her mystic musings continue to have a deep impact on the psyche of Kashmiri common man, and the 2000 National Seminar on her held at New Delhi led to the release of the book Remembering Lal Ded in Modern Times. A solo play in English, Hindi and Kashmiri titled 'Lal Ded' (based on her life), has been performed by actress Mita Vashisht all over India since 2004. Biography Lalleshwari was born in Pandrethan (ancient Puranadhisthana) some four and a half miles to the southeast of Srinagar in a Kashmiri Pandit family. She married at age twelve, but her marriage was unhappy and she left home at twenty-four to take sanyas (renunciation) and become a disciple of the Shaivite guru Siddha Srikantha (Sed Bayu). She continued the mystic tradition of Shaivism in Kashmir, which was known as Trika before 1900. There are various stories about Lal Ded's encounters with the founding fathers of Kashmiri Sufism. One story recounts how, when Sheikh Nooruddin Noorani (Nund Rishi) was born, he wouldn’t feed from his mother.

    Social Guarantee for Women in the Quran: Theory and Reality

    Social Guarantee for Women in the Quran: Theory and Reality Syamruddin Nasution1 and Khoiruddin Nasution2 1UIN Sultan Syarif Kasim, Pekanbaru 2UIN Sunan Kalijaga, Yogyakarta Keywords: social, guarantee, justice, equal, status, wife and husband. Abstract: Islam is a religion of renewal. The renewed aspects of Islam can be grouped into five. First is the belief system of the polytheist system that is renewed into monotheistic. Second, the familial system of the patriarchal system that becomes bilateral & egalitarian. Third, the social system of hierarchical-structured that becomes egalitarian. Fourth, the economic system of the bourgeois-capitalistthat is reformed to a justice economy. Fifth, the collective (tribal) responsibility system that is renewed by Islam to become individual. The role of wife is one of many that is renewed by Islam in regards of the familial system. In line with it, in Indonesia where Muslim is the majority, it has tried various efforts to ensure the social justice that Islam provides to the wife. One of these efforts is enacted in marriage regulation in which wife quite hard in rights like it should be. This paper seeks to show the social justice that Islam provides for women with thematic studies of the Quran. Then shows why social security provided by Islam has not been obtained in society or even judiciary, especially the Islamic Courts in Indonesia. In fact, from 106 cases coming to the Islamic Court, only two of them providing the guarantee of the right of wife. 1 INTRODUCTION majority of thinkers still understand the Qur’an partially. Likewise, the available books are still Islam is a religion of renewal.

    Master of Arts Intercultural Theology Georg-August-Universität Göttingen August 2020 Narrative of Mary and Maryam as An Alternative Solution for Intolerance in Indonesia Submitted by: Mikhael Sihotang 21801251 Supervised by: PD. Dr. Fritz Heinrich Prof. Dr. Peter Gemeinhardt 1 Acknowledgement It never occurred to me that the universe would actually take me to Germany to continue my theological education to a master level. I was clueless. It is true that since I was a child I often shared my dream of studying in Germany, even though if I was asked at that time how would I get to Germany, I would not give any answers. The fact that I come from an ordinary family, financially, this dream seemed even more impossible to me then. However, thanks to the help of many noble people around me this dream has finally come true and I left for Germany in October 2018. I confidently can claim it was one of the happiest moments I have ever had. This happiness was beyond description. I was so amazed that I had difficulty accepting this dream really come true. Even until a few months living in Germany, I was still often pensive and had difficulty believing that I was actually sitting in a class at Goettingen University, Germany with 22 other students from 16 countries. So fabulous. For this precious opportunity, I would like to humbly dedicate this thesis to all those who have played their part in helping me achieving many things to date. First, I want to dedicate this thesis to the Lord Jesus Christ who has provided me many things needed to ensure this journey of mind and spiritual come to the reality.
