  • Light in Her Eyes FINAL
    POV Community Engagement & Education DISCUSSION GUIDE The Light in Her Eyes A Film by Julia Meltzer and Laura Nix www.pbs.org/pov LETTER FROM THE FILMMAKERS LOS ANGELES, 2012 Filmmaker Julia Meltzer Filmmaker Laura Nix Photo courtesy of Tracey Landworth Photo courtesy of Anne Etheridge In a courtyard off a busy street in Damascus, Syria, boisterous girls run and play before class starts in the women’s side of Al-Zahra mosque. Inside the mosque, preacher Houda al-Habash teaches the Quran, educating women and girls about their religion, and their rights, within their faith. Julia Meltzer lived in Damascus in 2005, and from the moment she first entered Al-Zahra mosque, she recognized what a unique place it was. Houda’s school was well-organized and energized—filled with women and girls supporting each other in their studies. Most people don’t associate Islam with women’s rights, and that’s exactly what we found interesting about the Al-Zahra Mosque Quran School. Inside this community, we uncovered a lively debate about women’s roles as mothers, teachers, wives, workers, sisters and daughters. Houda insists that secular education is an integral part of worship, because it gives her stu- dents the tools to make decisions about their futures. However, the school also emphasizes the importance of modesty and piety. These women and girls are following “the straight path” of Islam, because they want to live according to its structure, rules and ethics. DISCUSSION GUIDE The Light in Her Eyes |2 LETTER FROM THE FILMMAKERS Houda’s version of women’s rights doesn’t look like ours.

  • TITLE of UNIT What Do Muslims Do at the Mosque
    Sandwell SACRE RE Support Materials 2018 Unit 1.8 Beginning to learn about Islam. Muslims and Mosques in Sandwell Year 1 or 2 Sandwell SACRE Support for RE Beginning to learn from Islam : Mosques in Sandwell 1 Sandwell SACRE RE Support Materials 2018 Beginning to Learn about Islam: What can we find out? YEAR GROUP 1 or 2 ABOUT THIS UNIT: Islam is a major religion in Sandwell, the UK and globally. It is a requirement of the Sandwell RE syllabus that pupils learn about Islam throughout their primary school years, as well as about Christianity and other religions. This unit might form part of a wider curriculum theme on the local environment, or special places, or ‘where we live together’. It is very valuable for children to experience a school trip to a mosque, or another sacred building. But there is also much value in the virtual and pictorial encounter with a mosque that teachers can provide. This unit looks simply at Mosques and worship in Muslim life and in celebrations and festivals. Local connections are important too. Estimated time for this unit: 6 short sessions and 1 longer session if a visit to a mosque takes place. Where this unit fits in: Through this unit of work many children who are not Muslims will do some of their first learning about the Islamic faith. They should learn that it is a local religion in Sandwell and matters to people they live near to. Other children who are Muslims may find learning from their own religion is affirming of their identity, and opens up channels between home and school that hep them to learn.

  • Some Notes on Ahl Al-Bayt Shrines in the Early Ṭālibid Genealogies*
    Studia Islamica 108 (2013) 1-15 brill.com/si Shared Sanctity: Some Notes on Ahl al-Bayt Shrines in the Early Ṭālibid Genealogies* Teresa Bernheimer University of Oxford This article examines some of the earliest literary evidence for Ahl al-Bayt shrines, contained in the so-called Ṭālibid genealogies. First written in the mid- to late-9th century, nearly contemporaneously with the development of the earliest shrines themselves, these sources were often written by (and perhaps mainly for) the Ahl al-Bayt themselves, providing a picture that the family itself sought to preserve and convey. According to these sources, by the end of the 9th century there clearly were burial places of the Ahl al-Bayt, and especially of the ʿAlid family, that were visited. Such sites were asso- ciated with a number of ʿAlids who were not Shiʿite imams, but “regular” members of the family; thus they were not places of pilgrimage for the Shiʿa only, but sites of veneration that could be shared and even developed regardless of sectarian affiliation. The sites, moreover, became focal points for the Ahl al-Bayt, many of whom settled around them, and came to ben- efit from their waqf arrangements and the pilgrimage “traffic” around them. Over all, the paper argues that the appearance of—or increased attention to—the Ahl al-Bayt shrines from the 9th century onwards had little to do with Shiʿism or Shiʿite patronage; instead, it may be seen as consistent with the wider development of the socio-religious rise of the Ahl al-Bayt: the development of “ʿAlidism”.

Here, the prophet Muhammad (c. 570-632 CE), the messenger of God and founder of the Muslim faith, was born. Here, too, within the city’s Great Mosque, is the most sacred Muslim shrine, the Ka’aba. According to tradition, this cube-shaped building, draped in black cloth embroidered with a band of sacred verses in gold and silver thread, was originally built as a replica of a heavenly prototype. It was sacred to the Meccans before the time of the Prophet. And since the birth of Islam in the seventh century, it has been the focal point of the hajj, now the world’s largest annual pilgrimage. One of the “five pillars” of Islam, the hajj lasts several days, during which pilgrims must carry out certain rituals in Mecca and at sacred sites nearby. Muslims consider the city and an area several miles around it to be haram (“restricted,” “sacred”) and off-limits to non-Muslims.

  • ICLI 2020 Calendar
    Islamic Center of Long Island Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh Dear Brothers and Sisters in Islam: I hope and pray that this year brings you and your families abundant blessings and mercy from Allah (swt) and that you may stay in the best state of Iman (faith) and health. We all are familiar with the most famous proverbs “Time is money” and “Time is Gold”. Time has great importance in the life of a human being. Humanity has always been anxious with time, the passage of time, the measurement of time, and the scientific qualities of time. Time is a blessing on all of us. We should concentrate on how we use time ac- cording to our Islamic perspective. Allah Almighty has clearly stated the value of time in the Quran. We should make the use of time wisely to increase our faith in this life and the hereafter too. Our beloved Prophet (SAW) said about time in a Hadith: “There are two blessings which many people lose: (They are) health and free time for doing good” (Bukhari). From this saying, we can conclude that we should utilize our time for doing good deeds for the sake of Almighty Allah’s plea- sure. We order our lives around time and in Islam lives are structured around the daily prayers. We should offer prayers on time which are obligatory on every Muslim. In Islam, believers are encouraged to be certain of time, to know its importance and to organize it intelligently. If human beings do not waste or abuse time, but rather think of it as a bless- ing from Allah (swt), then they have every reason to hope for success both in this life and in the hereafter.

  • Al Haram Mosque Mecca
    Al Haram Mosque Mecca Location Mecca, Saudi Arabia The number of pilgrims during the annual Muslim Hajj to Medina (Madinah) and Mecca (Makkah), the most holy sites of Islam in Saudi Arabia, is growing rapidly – a situation which Built demands urbanistic and architectural changes on site. The international competition 2008, 1st prizeExecution: 2008 “King Abdallah Grand Expansion Project” of the Al Haram - GFA: 420,000 s qmGreen Building: passive building Mosque in Mecca, the biggest mosque in the world, aims to increase its capacity to 1,500,000 pilgrims. Currently maintenance and rescue services are not well organised. Thus the number of people being able to perform the Tawaf (circling) and Sa’ee (ritual walk) is limited. Also luggage and sanitary services are not sufficient or not easy to reach. The planned extension, which is only the first of several future additions, foresees an extension of the pilgrims’ facilities into the nearby valley and the hills north of the Al Haram Mosque. This expansion presents a unique opportunity for the sustainable development of an iconic building of exceptional scale. ingenhoven architects made a ground-breaking proposal for this expansion as part of an international design competition in 2008.The proposal is based on a cluster of canopies providing shade for people, plazas and buildings while reducing the heat island effect. Retractable canopies allow for natural cooling and prayer under the starry sky and protect pilgrims from the hot sun during daytime. While retaining the existing building, a circle with a radius of 660 m was drawn around the Ka’aba, defining the new outer edge of the site dedicated to the Al Haram Mosque.

  • ETIQUETTES of VISITING a MOSQUE (Masjid)
    ETIQUETTES OF VISITING A MOSQUE (Masjid) Introduction Muslims would usually be delighted to show others their place of worship. It is the sharing of what they hold very dear to their heart. It is hoped, however, that the visitors observe certain basic rules of conduct. The term Mosque is commonly used by non-Muslims to define the Muslim place of worship but its correct name is Masjid and this is the term used by Muslims. It would be preferable for non-Muslims to adapt to this correct terminology. Before going to visit a Masjid, it is important that visitors give some thought to how they feel. The Muslims being visited would not want visitors to feel unease. Likewise, they would not want to be made ill at ease themselves by criticisms of their way of worship or of their religion. Questions are always welcomed but negative comparisons with the visitor’s own customs are unlikely to promote a friendly relationship. Whether visiting alone, or as a group, it is important to follow the guidelines for clothing and behaviour so as not to cause offence. For groups, it is important not to talk loudly, thus disturbing anyone who may be at prayer. If any group members have special needs, let the place being visited know in advance so that they can prepare to help. For example, although the custom of the Mosque is to sit on the floor, chairs can often be provided for elderly, infirm or disabled visitors. Clothing in a Mosque Clothing should be modest for both men and women.
