The Very Foundation, Inauguration and Expanse of Sufism: a Historical Study
ISSN 2039-2117 (online) Mediterranean Journal of Social Sciences Vol 6 No 5 S1 ISSN 2039-9340 (print) MCSER Publishing, Rome-Italy September 2015 The Very Foundation, Inauguration and Expanse of Sufism: A Historical Study Dr. Abdul Zahoor Khan Ph.D., Head, Department of History & Pakistan Studies, Faculty of Social Sciences, Faculty Block #I, First Floor, New Campus Sector#H-10, International Islamic University, Islamabad-Pakistan; Email: [email protected]; [email protected] Muhammad Tanveer Jamal Chishti Ph.D. Scholar-History, Department of History &Pakistan Studies, Faculty of Social Sciences, Faculty Block #I, First Floor New Campus, Sector#H-10, International Islamic University, Islamabad-Pakistan; Email: [email protected] Doi:10.5901/mjss.2015.v6n5s1p382 Abstract Sufism has been one of the key sources to disseminate the esoteric aspects of the message of Islam throughout the world. The Sufis of Islam claim to present the real and original picture of Islam especially emphasizing the purity of heart and inner-self. To realize this objective they resort to various practices including meditation, love with fellow beings and service for mankind. The present article tries to explore the origin of Sufism, its gradual evolution and culmination. It also seeks to shed light on the characteristics of the Sufis of the different periods or generations as well as their ideas and approaches. Moreover, it discusses the contributions of the different Sufi Shaykhs as well as Sufi orders or Silsilahs, Qadiriyya, Suhrwardiyya, Naqshbandiyya, Kubraviyya and particularly the Chishtiyya. Keywords: Sufism, Qadiriyya, Chishtiyya, Suhrwardiyya, Kubraviyya-Shattariyya, Naqshbandiyya, Tasawwuf. 1. Introduction Sufism or Tasawwuf is the soul of religion. -
English-Language Sufi Devotional Literature in Singapore
English as an Islamic Cosmopolitan Vernacular: English-Language Sufi Devotional Literature in Singapore Lin Hongxuan* The key question this paper addresses is why Sufi devotional literature has been published and consumed in English, and the implications of this phenomenon. The material examined here focuses on literature that is consumed in Singapore: avail- able in bookstores, in institutional archives, online, distributed at Sufi events, and in the private possession of practicing Sufis. I argue that English is used as both a Singaporean vernacular and a cosmopolitan lingua franca, allowing Sufis across the world to communicate with one another. I also argue that the adoption of English is necessarily tied to the rise of digital media and the perception of English as a “modern” marker of prestige and sobriety. This paper is organized in three parts. First, it traces the evolution of a reading public for Sufi devotional literature in Muslim Southeast Asia. Second, it investigates how and why producers of such literature have expressed themselves in English. Third, it analyzes how English operates in conjunction with Arabic in Sufi literature consumed in Singapore. I conclude that Sufi print culture’s adoption of English is a response to both the opportunities and the challenges of the present, constituting a reflection of Sufis’ pedagogical needs as well as an active appropriation of a loaded language. Keywords: Sufism, Singapore, Southeast Asian Islam, Sufi print culture, English Introduction This paper studies the emergence of Sufi devotional literature in English, as consumed and produced in Singapore. In the broader context of South and Southeast Asian Islamic literary networks, this paper traces the historical evolution of the publication and consump- tion of Sufi devotional literature in various media: in print, audio and video recordings, and digital media. -

Sufism should be translated into noble behavior in slave relationship with God and fellow human beings and their environment. In fact, he prohibits physical war against non-Muslim people; holy war is jiha>d al-nafs for the destruction of all hatred against humanity. Good character supported by efforts to absorb the essence of God within ourselves. These properties can cultivate peace for the rest of the life. Keywords: Mysticism, moral, textual studies. A.

Development of Sufism in Bengal
DEVELOPMENT OF SUFISM IN BENGAL ABSTRACT Thesis Submitted for the degree of JBottor of $I)tlo£iopIi|> IN ISLAMIC STUDIES BY MUHAMMAD ISMAIL Under the supervision of Mr. AZOUDDIN KHAN READER DEPARTMENT OF ISLAMIC STUDIES ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 1989 1 The present work seeks to investigate the Development of Sufism in Bengal from the thirteenth to the twentieth century. Mo serious attempt has so far been Tiade to reconstruct the history of Sufism in i^-'ngal. The attention of the most of the scholars has centred- round the political history of Bengal,- making occasior. 1 references to its Saints but their accounts are uncritical and generally based upon the later hagiological material. In the present work an attempt has been made to make a fairly extensive and critical use of all sources available. Throughout the work we have attempted to justify by reasonable argument our reliance on a parti- cula'r source, wherever there has been a conflict of evidence or a contradiction. This aspect of the development of Sufism in Bengal is based on brief references found in the chronicles of Northern India and on the data collected from a study of inscriptions, coins and other archae^ogical evidence.. There is, however, sufficient materials in these chronicles as well as in the contemporary literature both Persian and Bengali available, with the help of which Develoo- nent of Sufisn in ^engal can be reconatructecl. In fact the Islaiaic proslelytization of India did not begin with coercion and blloashed; the first conversion were made by its Saints. Bengal's contact with the wiUslims, in the field of trade, colonization, and missionary work, began much earlier than its conquest in the thirteenth century. -
The Nature and Role of Sufism in Contemporary Islam
The Nature and Role of Sufism in Contemporary Islam: A Case Study of the Life, Thought and Teachings of Fethullah Gülen A Dissertation Submitted to The Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By Heon Choul Kim August 2008 © by Heon Choul Kim 2008 All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Title: The Nature and Role of Sufism in Contemporary Islam: A Case Study of the Life, Thought and Teachings of Fethullah Gülen Candidate’s name: Heon Choul Kim Degree: Doctor of Philosophy Temple University, 2008 Doctoral Advisory Committee Chair: Dr. Mahmoud M. Ayoub The resurgence of Sufism in the contemporary world has necessitated reexamining the nature and role of Sufism in contemporary contexts. A series of the reexaminations reveal that contemporary Sufism cannot be fully explained by traditional theories; instead it must be understood in accordance with changing contexts. On this basis, this dissertation directs itself to an investigation of the contemporary manifestations of Sufism. It specifically examines Sufism in the life, thought and teachings of Fethullah Gülen (b. 1941), as its case study. Gülen is known to be one of the most influential contemporary Muslim leaders, and has led a fast-growing movement expanded to global proportions. Much of the research that has consequently followed the inception of the growth of the movement presents Gülen as one of the major figures in defining the contemporary global Islamic experience, and suggests that the studies of Gülen contribute to a better understanding of contemporary issues in Islamic studies including the resurgence and transformation of Sufism. -
Kritik Ibn Al-Jawzi< Terhadap Ulama
Kritik Ibn Al-Jawzi< Terhadap Ulama Muhammad Kudhori STAI Al-Fithrah Surabaya Jl. Kedinding Lor 99 Surabaya 60129, E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Discourse about critic’s thought in the great religion teacher, both in us}u>l or furu>‘ has been finished yet. The difference of understanding the religion texts often makes some problems between them. Ibn’ al-Jawzi> is one of religion teacher who almost give critics to them who does not have the same opinion with him. Even, some of great religion teachers from any disciplines of study get a critic also from him. Tasawuf great religion teacher is one of his target in his book Talbi>s Ibli>s. The effect from this critic can be felt until nowadays. Some groups that refused tasawuf often use ibn al-Jawzi’s argument to attack tasawuf without looking at the basic essential critic through it. His critic to the great religion teacher is not based on their knowledge essential but it is based on their irrelevance in any disciplines of study. Ibn al-Jawzi’s critic also can be caused by the difference in understanding the religion texts as well as the difference of ijtihad in deciding a hadi>th. Keywords: Ibn al-Jawzi>, critic, great religion teacher, tasawuf. Abstrak: Diskursus tentang kritik pemikiran di kalangan ulama, baik yang bersifat us}u>l maupun furu>‘ belum pernah selesai. Perbedaan pemahaman atas teks-teks agama sering kali menimbulkan gesekan di antara mereka. Ibn al-Jawzi> merupakan salah satu ulama yang sangat gencar dalam melakukan kritik terhadap ulama yang dianggap ‚menyimpang‛. -

The Strange Career of the Rule of Law in Colonial Punjab
Calm amid Choas: The Role of Shah Ghulam ‘Ali in the Revival of Sufi Traditions in the 19th- century India and beyond Tanvir Anjum The nineteenth century is considered to be one of the most eventful times in the history of the Indian Sub- continent. The latter half of the eighteenth and the first half of the nineteenth century was the period that witnessed the process of transition from the centuries-old Mughal rule to the colonial domination of the British, extending over a period of almost a century. Marked by a gradual but cataclysmic shift in the political arrangements, the era holds historical significance since the political transformation taking place at the centre and elsewhere was heralding changes in varied spheres of society as well. However, the gradual erosion of the political power of the Mughals was not accompanied by a complete decline in the social, cultural and religious spheres of the polity. Historical evidence bears ample testimony to the fact that despite political chaos and decay, there were certain strikingly observable signs of growth and vitality in varied spheres of the Indian society. Though there emerged sectarian, communitarian and ideological conflicts between the Shias and the Sunnis, and the Hindus and the Muslims, many religious, social and cultural institutions generally retained their vitality. Calm amid Choas: The Role of Shah Ghulam 107 One such sphere that vividly manifested exuberance was the religio-spiritual sphere, where the institution of the Sufi circles or Sufi silsilahs (literally meaning a connection, a link or a chain; a spiritual lineage or an initiatic genealogy) flourished in the khanqahs (Sufi dwellings). -

These spiritualists have existed since the beginning of time. This paper looks into the notions of Sufism, its historical and contemporary existence in the United States, and the beliefs of one specific tariqa, the Oveyssi Shahmaghsoudi order. Ethnographic research with participant observation from November-December 2018 in the Oveyssi Shahmaghsoudi khaneghah of Dallas details numerous activities and practices, which illustrate the core teachings of the order and its uniqueness amongst all others.
