Transcendence of God
TRANSCENDENCE OF GOD A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE OLD TESTAMENT AND THE QUR’AN BY STEPHEN MYONGSU KIM A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE PHILOSOPHIAE DOCTOR (PhD) IN BIBLICAL AND RELIGIOUS STUDIES IN THE FACULTY OF HUMANITIES AT THE UNIVERSITY OF PRETORIA SUPERVISOR: PROF. DJ HUMAN CO-SUPERVISOR: PROF. PGJ MEIRING JUNE 2009 © University of Pretoria DEDICATION To my love, Miae our children Yein, Stephen, and David and the Peacemakers around the world. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First, I thank God for the opportunity and privilege to study the subject of divinity. Without acknowledging God’s grace, this study would be futile. I would like to thank my family for their outstanding tolerance of my late studies which takes away our family time. Without their support and kind endurance, I could not have completed this prolonged task. I am grateful to the staffs of University of Pretoria who have provided all the essential process of official matter. Without their kind help, my studies would have been difficult. Many thanks go to my fellow teachers in the Nairobi International School of Theology. I thank David and Sarah O’Brien for their painstaking proofreading of my thesis. Furthermore, I appreciate Dr Wayne Johnson and Dr Paul Mumo for their suggestions in my early stage of thesis writing. I also thank my students with whom I discussed and developed many insights of God’s relationship with mankind during the Hebrew Exegesis lectures. I also remember my former teachers from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, especially from the OT Department who have shaped my academic stand and inspired to pursue the subject of this thesis. -

Ikkinchi xalifa Saffohning ukasi Abu Ja’far Mansur (754-775) Bag‘dod sh.ga asos solib, poytaxtni shu yerga ko‘chirdi. A. hukmronligining dastlabki davrida mulkchilik munosabatlari o‘sib, savdo-sotiq rivojlandi.

Harbiy kuchlar turk sarkardalari qo‘liga o‘tib ketdi. Ular xohlagan vaqtlarida xalifalarni almashtira olar edilar. 10-a. o‘rtalariga kelib A. siyosiy hokimiyatni tamoman qo‘ldan boy berib, musulmonlarning diniy xalifasi (payg‘ambar o‘rinbosari)gina bo‘lib qoldilar. -

Las Matemáticas Del Islam
LAS MATEMATICAS DEL ISLAM Esther Mora Meneses LAS MATEMÁTICAS DEL ISLAM. Trabajo realizado por: Esther Mora Meneses. E.U.I.T.A Explotaciones. 3 LAS MATEMATICAS DEL ISLAM Esther Mora Meneses Curso 2000 / 2001. 1. ANTECEDENTES HISTORICOS Por la época en que Brahmagupta escribía sus tratados matemáticos ya se había derrumbado el imperio Sabeo de la Arabia Felix, y la península arábiga se encontraba sumida en una profunda crisis. Arabia estaba habitada entonces en su mayor parte por nómadas del desiertos, conocidos con el nombre de beduinos, que no sabían leer ni escribir, y en este marco sociopolítico surgió el profeta Mahoma , nacido en la Meca en el año 570 d.c. Mahoma fué el fundador del Islam, religión que se extendió en poco tiempo por toda Arabia y que tiene como dogmas la creencia en un Dios único y en una vida futura, en la resurrección y en el juicio final. La primera parte de su vida, fué la de un ciudadano medio que vive en una ciudad de 25.000 habitantes. A los 40 años empezó a predicar, primero en un pequeño grupo de fieles, después a la población en general, sentando así las bases de la religión islámica. En el año 622 d.C, su vida se vió amenazada por un complot, lo que le obligó a trasladarse a Yatrib, más tarde denominada Medina. Esta “huida”, conocida como la Hégira , señala el comienzo de la Era Mahometana, que iba a ejercer durante siglos una poderosa influencia en el desasrrollo de las matemáticas. La unidad de la civilización islámica se basaba mucho en la religión de Mahoma y en las actividades económicas que en una hegemonía política real. -

Understanding Islam: an Approach to Witness
UNDERSTANDING ISLAM: AN APPROACH TO WITNESS By Dwight L. Baker Baptist Literacy Missions Center at Baylor 0 1 UNDERSTANDING ISLAM: AN APPROACH TO WITNESS Copyright © 1989 by Dwight L. Baker ISBN: 0-9624512-1-5 Photography by Adrian Vaughan Printed by Baylor Printing Service All rights reserved. No part of this book may be used or reproduced in any manner whatsoever without written permission, except in the case of brief quotations embodied in critical articles and reviews. Published with use of the Bettie Draper Literacy Missions Publishing Fund by the Baptist Literacy Missions Center at Baylor Lester Meriwether, Director B.U. Box 7291 Waco, TX 76798-7291 The Baptist Literacy Missions Center at Baylor is a joint project of Baylor University and the Baptist General Convention of Texas. Note: this book is currently out of print, 2013. 2 3 INTRODUCTION It is my privilege to introduce to you a special book written for special people and published through a rather out-of-the-ordinary cooperative effort. UNDERSTANDING ISLAM: AN APPROACH TO WITNESS was born of the work of life-long Southern Baptist missionary Dr. Dwight Baker. I met Dr. Baker at Baylor University where he served as Visiting Professor in the Department of Religion. Dr. Baker presented some of the material shared in this book in seminars in November of 1988 in a meeting for volunteers in church ministries to internationals. Dr. Baker then shared with me his dream of having these lectures published. Thus began the cooperative effort that depicts the publishing of this book. As Dr. Baker notes in his comments, the Department of Religion at Baylor was responsible for the typing of his original manuscript. -
Learn Islam in Your Language KALEMAH
Learn Islam in your language KALEMAH KALEMAH ISLAMIC CENTER is a community center for all. Kalemah was founded in 2007 and is managed by a Board of Emirati Nationals, an Executive Committee and a staff of over a dozen full- time employees. We operate based on charitable donations from philanthropic individuals, organizations and governmental bodies. We are a non profit organization officially registered under the Islamic Affairs and Charitable Activities Department (IACAD) Government of Dubai. Our Mission: To propagate the pristine, unadulterated teachings of Islam to Muslims and non-Muslims in Dubai in the most effective and appropriate way. Our Vision: The souls of a nation, connected to their Creator. Ikhtiṣār ʿUlūm al-Ḥadīth By Ibn Kathīr (d.774H) All praise be to Allāh and may peace be upon His chosen slave. To proceed: Verily the science of the prophetic narrations, in which a group of scholars – old and new – have taken an interest in speaking about; like al-Hākim, al-Khatīb, those who preceded them from the scholars and those who came after from the Hufāz of this nation. It is from the most complete/important and beneficial sciences which I would love to comment on in a beneficial, comprehensive summarised manner to reach the benefits, and to make easy the obscure matters. The book that I relied upon to abridge is [by] al- Shaykh al-Imām al-Alāmah Abū Amr ibn al- Salāh – May Allāh encompass him with His mercy – from the well-known books amongst the students of this field, and maybe some of the skilful from the young have memorised it – treading behind him, to divide that which has been opened, to summarise that which has been explained, and to organise that which has preceded. -
Schools of Qur'anic Exegesis
Schools of Qur’anic Exegesis Qur’anic exegesis has become the battleground of political Islam and theological conflict among various Muslim schools of thought. Using comparative and con- trastive methodology, examples from the Qur’an are investigated in the light of various theological views to delineate the birth, development and growth of Qur’anic exegesis. The political status quo, in the past and at present, has impinged upon Qur’anic exegesis more than on any other discipline in Islamic studies. This book illus- trates the dichotomy between mainstream and non-mainstream Islam, showing how Qur’anic exegesis reflects the subtle dogmatic differences and political cleavages in Islamic thought. Chapters explore in depth the intrusive views of the compilers of early exegesis manuscripts, the scepticism among Western scholars about the authenticity of early Muslim works of exegesis and of prophetic tradi- tion, and the role of exegesis as a tool to reaffirm the Qur’an as a canon. Broader themes encompassed include the interpretations of exegetical terms; use of the notion of free will and pre-determinism to justify the political misfortunes of Muslim leaders and the sufferings of their people; politicization of Ramadan; and the disparity between jihad and non-jihad. Written to appeal to those with comparative exegetical interests as well as those focused on Islamic studies in general, this book will be an important refer- ence for research students, scholars and students of Islamic studies, Theology, Religious studies and Middle Eastern studies.

WITTES: Well, good afternoon, everyone, and welcome. I’m Tamara Wittes. I direct the Center for Middle East Policy here at Brookings and delighted to have you all here. To all of those who are observing the holy month, let me being saying Ramadan Kareem. In a few minutes we will hear from Shadi Hamid, a senior fellow in our project on U.S. Relations with the Islamic World, about his new book. And he will then be joined in conversation by our Isaiah Berlin senior fellow for Culture and Policy, Leon Wieseltier, for what I know will be a fascinating and enlightening conversation. After we finish our program here in Falk, we will have a reception across the hall. And I hope that you can all stay to join us and celebrate Shadi’s new scholarship. The proper role of Islam in modern politics has of course been a subject of intense debate in Muslim majority countries, at least since the 19th century with the end of the Caliphate and the rise of the modern nation state. -
