  • Patterns of Affliction Among Mappila Muslims of Malappuram, Kerala
    International Journal of Management and Applied Science, ISSN: 2394-7926 Volume-4, Issue-10, Oct.-2018 http://iraj.in PATTERNS OF AFFLICTION AMONG MAPPILA MUSLIMS OF MALAPPURAM, KERALA FARSANA K.P Research Scholar Centre of Social Medicine and Community Health, JNU E-mail: [email protected] Abstract- Each and every community has its own way of understanding on health and illness; it varies from Culture to culture. According to the Mappila Muslims of Malappuram, the state of pain, distress and misery is understood as an affliction to their health. They believe that most of the afflictions are due to the Jinn/ Shaitanic Possession. So they prefer religious healers than the other systems of medicine for their treatments. Thangals are the endogamous community in Kerala, of Yemeni heritage who claim direct descent from the Prophet Mohammed’s family. Because of their sacrosanct status, many Thangals works as religious healers in Northern Kerala. Using the case of one Thangal healer as illustration of the many religious healers in Kerala who engage in the healing practices, I illustrate the patterns of afflictions among Mappila Muslims of Malappuram. Based on the analysis of this Thangal’s healing practice in the local context of Northern Kerala, I further discuss about the modes of treatment which they are providing to them. Key words- Affliction, Religious healing, Faith, Mappila Muslims and Jinn/Shaitanic possession I. INTRODUCTION are certain healing concepts that traditional cultures share. However, healing occupies an important The World Health Organization defined health as a position in religious experiences irrespective of any state of complete physical, social and mental religion.

The ruler, therefore, needs persons to help him in the matters concerned with 'the sword,' 'the pen,' and finances; and among them the pen ranks high."1 It may have been thought to rank even higher than the sword and finances, for, according to Muslim tradition, the pen was the first object God created.2 Of its power and creativeness in Islamic culture there can be no doubt, and those who wielded the pen enjoyed great esteem. Poets and literati lent their talents to the business of government and, according to Ibn al-Sayrafl, achieved "with the pen what the sword and the lance over a long period of years had been unable to produce."3 Unfortunately, the use of the pen as an instrument of Muslim policy and the preservation of the products of the pen, namely offi- cial documents, have received too little attention so far. As a re- sult, archives-keeping in the Muslim states during the Middle Ages has not been fully recognized as a continuation of preceding prac- The author, Fellow and past president of the Society, continues with this essay his history of archives administration begun in Archives in the Ancient World [Cambridge, Mass., Harvard University Press; xviii, 283 p., illus.; bibliography, index; $>io] pub- lished in May 1972.

Polish text with English summaries. This seminal book is an attempt to summarise and chart new directions in the on-going historical de- bate relating to the formation and spread of Christianity throughout the European continent. The authors examine the processes of the emergence and consolidation of Christianity along with the birth of the foundations of the institutional Church within Imperium Romanum. The question of the Christianisation of tribes and the emergent barbaric states is also explored. The study covers subjects up to the formation of medieval Respublica Christiana circa 1000, and, going beyond the issues of Christianity, addresses also issues appertaining to pagan religions in Europe and to other Christian denominations, Judaism and Islam.

  • Translatability of the Qur'an In
    TRANSLATABILITY OF THE QUR’AN IN REGIONAL VERNACULAR: DISCOURSES AND DIVERSITIES WITHIN THE MAPPILA MUSLIMS OF KERALA, INDIA BY MUHAMMED SUHAIL K A thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Qur’an and Sunnah Studies Kulliyyah of Islamic Revealed Knowledge and Human Sciences International Islamic University Malaysia JULY 2020 ABSTRACT Engagements of non-Arab Muslim communities with the Qur’an, the Arabic-specific scripture of Islam, are always in a form of improvement. Although a number of theological and linguistic aspects complicate the issue of translatability of the Qur’an, several communities have gradually embraced the practice of translating it. The case of Mappila Muslims of Kerala, India, the earliest individual Muslim community of south Asia, is not different. There is a void of adequate academic attention on translations of the Qur’an into regional vernaculars along with their respective communities in general, and Malayalam and the rich Mappila context, in particular. Thus, this research attempts to critically appraise the Mappila engagements with the Qur’an focusing on its translatability-discourses and methodological diversities. In order to achieve this, the procedure employed is a combination of different research methods, namely, inductive, analytical, historical and critical. The study suggests that, even in its pre-translation era, the Mappilas have uninterruptedly exercised different forms of oral translation in an attempt to comprehend the meaning of the Qur’an both at the micro and macro levels. The translation era, which commences from the late 18th century, witnessed the emergence of huge number of Qur’an translations intertwined with intense debates on its translatability.

Although it is now almost two years since we were first involved in the preparation of materials on the Middle East for a course in the problems of American democracy, world events continue to remind us of the critical importance of the Mediterranean area. Our students were aware of an increasing variety of proposals for the role the United States should play in easing the tensions in the Middle East, but they were relatively unfamiliar with the general history and geography of the area.
