Kamaaluddin Wa Tamaamun Ni'ma Vol. 2 Published on Books on Islam and Muslims | Al-Islam.org (https://www.al-islam.org) Home > Kamaaluddin wa Tamaamun Ni’ma Vol. 2 Kamaaluddin wa Tamaamun Ni’ma Vol. 2 Perfection of Faith and Completion of Divine Favor Author(s): Shaykh as-Saduq [3] Publisher(s): Az-Zahra Publications - Mumbai [4] Now it is about 12 centuries passed from Imam Mahdi's hidden life, and the bothering time of his hidden life will continue up to his reappearance. According to imam Ridha (as), Imam's reappearance will be extended to the day of Doom, no one knows this but God, it is hard to people and it will happen suddenly. Therefore, any investigation to find the exact time of his reappearance is fruitless and our duty is to wait. The meaning of "waiting for" is to desire his reappearance desperately and looking forward to his reappearance; this waiting results from faith and it is rewarded. In addition, it has spiritual values. Waiting for him, like other religious practices, has practical aspects which is pointed out by our infallibles. Following infallibles' orders in this regard is the duty of people who live in the time of his hidden life. The book deals with the personality of the Hidden Imam, his occultation and everything related to him in an analytical and systematic manner and is penetrating in its subject and exceptional in its domain. Shaikh Saduq has presented strong arguments from the life-story of the Prophets regarding their occultation [ghaibah] to prove the occultation of the Twelfth Imam; and Ahadith have been quoted extensively from the Holy Prophet sawa and the Infallible Imams in support of the writer's contentions.

And he is the Qaim of us, Ahlul Bayt. Allah, the Mighty and the High will reform his circumstances overnight.” 2 -Narrated to us Ahmad bin Muhammad bin Ishaq Muazi (r.a.): Narrated to us Ahmad bin Muhammad Hamdani Kufi: Narrated to us Ahmad bin Musa bin Furat: Narrated to us Abdul Wahid bin Muhammad: Narrated to us Sufyan: Narrated to us Abdullah bin Zubair from Abdullah bin Shareek from a man of Hamadan that he said: I heard Al-Husain bin Ali (a.s.) that he said: “The Mahdi of this nation is my ninth descendant.

And he is truly the Imam al-Qaim. Allah will enliven the earth after its death through him. And through him triumph His religion over all the religions even if the polytheists may dislike this. There will be occultation for him during which communities will apostize but others will remain steadfast on religion. They will be tortured and told: If you are true when will this promise be fulfilled? Know that one who observes patience during those tribulations will be like one who fights the holy war under the command of the Messenger of Allah (S).” 4 - Narrated to us Ali bin Muhammad bin Hasan Qazwini: Narrated to us Muhammad bin Abdullah Hadhrami: Narrated to us Ahmad bin Yahya al-Hawl: Narrated to us Khallad Muqri from Qais bin Abi Hus’ain from Yahya bin Thaab from Abdullah bin Umar that he said: I heard Husain Ibne Ali (a.s.) say: “Even if only a day remains from the tenure of the world, Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, would prolong it enough to allow a man from my progeny to appear. Then he would fill up the earth with justice and equity just as it would be fraught with injustice and oppression.” The narrator says: I heard the Holy Prophet (S) say the same.” 5 - Narrated to us my father (r.a.): Narrated to us Muhammad bin Yahya al-Attar: Narrated to us Ja’far bin Muhammad bin Malik: Narrated to me Hamadan bin Mansur from Saad bin Muhammad from Isa Khashshab that he said: “I asked Husain bin Ali (a.s.): Are you the master of this affair? He replied: ‘No, the master of the affair is that same ‘Tareed’ and ‘Shareed’1 who is the motor and revenger for his father, who is having the patronymic of his uncle and who would carry his sword on his shoulders for eight months.” 1.

In the spiritual form, under the light of His effulgence they worshipped Him before the creation of the creatures, glorified Allah, the Mighty and Sublime and sanctified Him and they are the Imams of guidance from Aale Muhammad (a.s.).” 2 - Narrated to us Ali bin Abdullah Warraq: Narrated to us Muhammad bin Harun Sufi from Abdullah bin Musa from Abdul Azeem bin Abdullah Hasani (r.a.): Narrated to me Safwan Ibne Yahya from Ibrahim bin Abi Ziyad from Abi Hamza Thumali from Abi Khalid Kabuli that he said: “I came to my master, Ali bin Husain Zainul Abideen (a.s.) and said: O son of Allah’s Messenger, tell about those personalities whose obedience and love Allah has made incumbent on His servants and that after the Messenger of Allah (S) they should follow them. The Imam said: O Kankar, The ones whom Allah has made as Ulil Amr (vested with authority) are Amirul Momineen Ali Ibne Abi Talib (a.s.) and after him, Imam Hasan (a.s.), then Imam Husain (a.s.), sons of Ali Ibne Abi Talib (a.s.) till this position came to me. After that the Imam fell silent. I said: My chief, it is narrated from Amirul Momineen (a.s.) that the earth shall never be devoid of Proof of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime upon His creatures. So who is the Imam and Divine Proof after you? He replied: My son, Muhammad and in Taurat his name is Baqir (splitter) and he will expound knowledge. He will be the Divine Proof after me. And after him his son, Ja’far who will be famous among the folks of the heavens as Sadiq. I said: My chief, why is he named Sadiq (truthful) while all of you are truthful? He replied: My father narrated to me from his father that the Messenger of Allah (S) said: When my great grandson, Ja’far bin Muhammad bin Ali bin Husain bin Ali Ibne Abi Talib (a.s.) is born, name him Sadiq. One of his fifth descendants will be named Ja’far, who will falsely claim Imamate and attribute falsehood to the Almighty Allah. He would be Ja’far Kazzab in the view of Allah. He will claim something he is not worthy of. He will oppose his father and be jealous of his brother. Taking undue advantage of the occultation of Divine Proof he will try to expose the secret of Allah. After that Imam Ali Ibne Husain (a.s.) cried much and then said: “As if I can see Ja’far Kazzab helping the tyrant of the time to search for the Wali of Allah. He will try to spy on him and not knowing about the birth of Imam Qaim, he will become the executor of his father’s estate and will desire that were he to gain upper hand on the Qaim he will eliminate him; and will be greedy for his inheritance, till he usurps it wrongfully.” Abu Khalid says: I said: O son of Allah’s Messenger, is it a prediction? He replied: No, rather by Allah, it is written in the book in our possession that mentions the calamities that shall befall us after the Messenger of Allah (S).

  • Language Ideologies, Schooling and Islam in Qatar
    Language in the Mirror: Language Ideologies, Schooling and Islam in Qatar Rehenuma Asmi Submitted in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctorate of Philosophy under the executive committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 Rehenuma Asmi All rights reserved ABSTRACT Language in the Mirror: Language Ideologies, Schooling and Islam Rehenuma Asmi My study explores language ideologies in the capital city of Doha, Qatar, where school reform movements are placing greater emphasis on English language acquisition. Through ethnography and a revised theory of language ideologies, I argue that as languages come in greater contact in multi-lingual spaces, mediation must occur between the new and old relationships that are emerging as a result of population growth, policy changes and cross-cultural interactions. I interrogate the development concept of the “knowledge economy” as it is used to justify old and new language ideologies regarding Arabic and English. As Qataris change their education systems in response to the economic development framework of the “knowledge economy,” they are promoting language ideologies that designate English as useful for the economy and “global” citizenship and Qatari Arabic and Standard Arabic as useful for religious and cultural reasons. I argue that Standard English, through its association with the “knowledge economy,” becomes “de-localized” and branded an “international” language. This ideology presents English as a modern language free of the society in which it is embedded, to circulate around the globe. In contrast, Standard Arabic is represented as stiff, archaic language of religious traditions and Qatari Arabic is presented as the language of oral culture and ethnonationalism.

    Pre-Modern Iberian Fragments in the Present: Studies in Philology, Time, Representation and Value By Heather Marie Bamford A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Hispanic Languages and Literatures in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Jesús Rodríguez-Velasco, Co-Chair Professor José Rabasa, Co-Chair Professor Hans Ulrich Gumbrecht Professor Ignacio Navarrete Professor David Hult Fall 2010 1 Abstract Pre-Modern Iberian Fragments in the Present: Studies in Philology, Time, Representation, and Value by Heather Marie Bamford Doctor of Philosophy in Hispanic Literatures and Languages University of California, Berkeley Professors Jesús Rodríguez-Velasco and José Rabasa, Co-Chairs This dissertation examines the uses of medieval and early-modern Iberian cultural objects in the present. It draws on the notion of fragment and actual fragmentary testimonies to study how pre- modern Iberian things and texts are reconstituted and used for various projects of personal, institutional, national and transnational reconstitution in the present. The corpus objects are necessarily diverse in chronological scope, with examples from the medieval, early-modern and modern periods, and touch upon works of many genres: chivalric romance, royal and personal correspondence, early-modern and modern historiography, Hispano-Arabic and Hispano-Hebrew lyric, inscriptions, pre-modern and modern biographies and 21st century book exhibitions. The dissertation proposes that Iberian fragments are engaged in various forms of reconstitution or production in the present and, at the same time, are held as timeless, unchanging entities that have the capability to allow users to connect with something genuinely old, truly Spanish and, indeed, eternal.

At the Ballantyne Press CX/vW^ INTRODUCTION Professor Sheldon Amos once remarked to me that Egyptian Arabic had been a hopeless puzzle to him, which he despaired of ever being able to master, until he fell across Spitta Bey's grammar of the language. Then all became clear at once. Spitta's work was indeed a model of the way in which a spoken living language should be scientifically studied. But it was necessarily the work of a pioneer. It opened the way which others should follow and complete. The work that was begun by Spitta seems to me to have been finished by Mr. Willmore. The present volume contains an exhaustive account of the Cairene dialect of Egyptian Arabic as it is spoken to-day. On the practical side it will be welcomed by those who live in Egypt and wish to understand and be understood by the natives. But it will be qiiite as much welcomed by the student of scientific philology.

  • The Contribution of Arabic Literature to World Literature: Radwa Ashour’S Siraaj a Case in Point By: Dr
    Dr. Doaa Nabil Embabi The Contribution of Arabic Literature to World Literature: Radwa Ashour’s Siraaj a Case in Point By: Dr. Doaa Nabil Embabi Dept. of English Language and Literature, Faculty of Arts, Ain Shams University Why world literature? Radwa Ashour identifies herself as an Arab woman and a Third World citizen (“My Experience with writing” 170). Throughout her career she has also consciously referred to her upbringing in the Cairo of the fifties and the sixties and her early schooling in a French school where teachers and students were predominantly French, and made her and her other Egyptian classmates feel inferior (“Tajrubati fil Kitaba” 121). She is also a graduate and later a scholar/ academic of English literature, in addition to the fact that she earned her PhD from the University of Massachusetts in the USA. This biographical snapshot is not meant introduce Ashour. It is rather meant to give a brief idea of the rich experience she had and to reflect on Ashour’s existence –by virtue of her background, historical moment, education, and choice – between the Arabic speaking world and the English speaking world in various capacities. Given her makeup as a person, academic and writer, and based on personal choices, Ashour was also an ‘oppositional’ and ‘worldly’ intellectual in the Saidian sense of the term. According to Edward Said, the critic/ criticism is “worldly and in the world so long as it opposes monocentrism, a concept …[Said] understand[s] as working in conjunction with ethnocentrism, which licenses a x I (83) The Contribution of Arabic Literature to World Literature: culture to cloak itself in the particular authority of certain values over others” (53).

  • Otto Zwartjes the ANDALUSI KHARJAS
    Otto Zwartjes THE ANDALUSI KHARJAS: A Courtly Counterpoint to Popular Tradition?l 1. Introduction The subject of this article is the interaction or interference of popular and courtly or 'learned elements' in Andalusi strophic poetry. Since many scholars have considered the kharjas to be manifestations of pop­ ular lyric, the first objective of this article is to determine to what de­ gree we can classify these texts as 'popular'. The second objective is to relate these texts to the 'courtly' context where they were performed. The multicultural and multilingual character of Andalusi society is re­ flected in Andalusi strophic poetry, as well as the rivalry between Berber and Arabic-Andalusi culture. Languages and alphabets of the Muslim, Christian, and Jewish populations were used in the final lines, the kharjas. We notice a great discrepancy in the aesthetic judgments of Andalusi Arabic strophic poetry and in its popularity in different periods. These non-classical genres are usually not included in the an­ thologies of prestigious literature. During the Berber dynasties this lit­ erary tradition reached the status of 'court literature' and we see that 'innovation' became a new 'tradition'. Later, we see even that this 'popular' poetry became the 'classical' Maghribi musical tradition. The higher esteem these poems earned in al-Andalus contributed to their wide diffusion in the Maghrib and other regions of the Islamic world. 2. Andalusi strophic poetry In al-Andalus two new forms of poetry, the strophic muwashshal:i and the zajal, developed within Arabic literature. The muwashshal) is SCRIPTA MEDITERRANEA, Vols XIX-XX 1998-1999, 45 1 This text is an elaborated version of my lecture at the 31st International Congress on Medieval Studies.
