The state’s taxation capacities, the extent of centralized control, and the degree of systematic administration tend to be assessed and re assessed. While these concerns were generally not present in medieval writings on the state (except for the role of despotic authority), there were at least two writers, who, some two and a half centuries apart, provided reflections sufficient in scope and consistency to be given the designation of ‘theories’. I propose to deal with them separately, since their premises and conclusions appear in sharp contrast to each other. At the end, I would try to sum up what these contrasts tell us about both the circumstances of the times and the intellectual traditions which produced them. I . Barani has been much studied and commented upon as a historian, and since the work of Mohammad Habib and Afsar Khan in the 1950’s,1 his position as a political theorist has also been recognized. The following pages thus partly represent the re-visiting of explored ground; such verification may perhaps perform some service, even where it confirms what was previously known; and, therefore, one may proceed to one’s task without a long apology. -

Alternative Dispute Resolution in Islam: an Analysis
Summer Issue 2017 ILI Law Review Vol. I ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION IN ISLAM: AN ANALYSIS Dr. Vandana Singh* “O you who believe! Stand out firmly for Allah as witnesses to fair dealings and let not the hatred of others to you make you swerve to wrong and depart from justice. Be just, that is next to piety. Fear Allah, indeed Allah is well acquainted with all that you do.” Quran: Chapter 5 Verse 8 Abstract The purpose of this paper is to look at methods of dispute resolution in Islam which is nearly two thousand years old. It is commonly believed that the Alternative Dispute Resolution has emerged and originated from the west from past few decades. On the contrary, it is claimed by many Islamic Jurist that the ADR processes like Negotiation, Mediation, Med-Arb, and Arbitration are practiced in Islam from 1400 years and are mentioned in holy Quran. The present paper is an attempt to analyze practice and concept of Alternative Dispute Resolution from an Islamic theological perspective. In light of the clear foundation for these guiding principles to govern Islamic dispute resolution, this chapter will outline the foundations for Alternative Dispute Resolution in Islam and assess the theory and practice of sullh and taken in contemporary times. I Introduction ……………………………….................... 137-138 II Historical Background of ADR in Islam ...................... 138-142 III Process of ADR in Islam ……………………………… 142-146 I Introduction AS THE world is getting smaller due to continuous exchange of information and knowledge and boundaries between cultures, religion and civilisationsare gradually gettingcollapsed, the study of cross-cultural and multi-religious practice is of profound need. -

Sharia in the City Negotiation and Construction of Moral Space
SHARIA IN THE CITY NEGOTIATION AND CONSTRUCTION OF MORAL SPACE BY SHARIF ISLAM DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2016 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Behrooz Ghamari-Tabrizi, Chair Associate Professor Zsuzsa Gille Associate Professor Junaid Rana Associate Professor Assata Zerai ABSTRACT This dissertation is primarily concerned with how sharia is practiced by Muslims from a variety of backgrounds in Chicago’s Devon Avenue and how they co-construct physical and moral spaces. More specifically, I am interested in how sharia as a divine, non- contingent moral and legal code is understood and analyzed in various contingent situations and everyday settings such as producing, distributing, marketing and consuming halal food products. Drawing on conversations with residents, employees, and customers who visit stores in Devon Avenue, as well as archival research, my aim is to demonstrate the various multifaceted understandings and implications of sharia for Muslims in the United States. I argue that the multifaceted interpretations and practices of sharia in the United States are connected with the rhythms and everyday practices of Chicago and beyond. These connections, rhythms, and practices are reflected and interpreted in the actions and comments of Muslims and non-Muslims alike. The goal here is not just to show that the religious (for instance, sharia) and the non- religious/secular (grocery stores, restaurants, farms) are intertwined but to what extent these seemingly separate and disparate domains and spaces may be concurrently called upon within the framework of Islam, sharia, and halal food. -

Agrarian Taxation There is no reference which clearly states as to how the agricultural surplus was appropriated by the state before the Ghorian states. It is difficult to ascertain how it was exacted from the primary producers in the form of landowners claim or as taxes. The inscription gives the name of a number of taxes. The nature of it is not known though. The share of the produce is all the more difficult to ascertain. With the establishment of the Delhi Sultanate the older system was not immediately changed. The new rulers superimposed their demands on the existing system. The ruling class of the older regime paid the demand as tributes. Thus initially there are very little information as to how much was extracted from the peasantry. In the rebellious territories or mawasat such arrangements could not be made. -

Aseel Al-Ramahi S ulh: A Crucial Part of Islamic Arbitration 1 Sulh : A Crucial Part of Islamic Arbitration Aseel Al-Ramahi * Abstract: Arbitration and amicable settlement ( sulh ) have a long history within Arab and Islamic societies and have their roots in pre-Islamic Arabia. Sulh is the preferred result and process in any form of dispute resolution. Further, arbitration is favoured to adjudication in Islamic jurisprudence. In tribal and Islamic cultures, the overarching objective in conflict settlement is collectivity. Group solidarity is explored in this paper and its effect on dispute resolution is examined. The paper looks at the differences between East and West and shows that the Eastern party has an intrinsic community and a collective attitude to conflict whereas the Western party is individually minded and procedurally orientated, thus causing friction between the two sides. The distinctions between them relate to the perceptions of conflict, the formation of procedure and the status and function of the third party intervener. -
Dr. Md. Neyaz Hussain
DR. MD.NEYAZ HUSSAIN ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR & HOD PG DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY MAHARAJA COLLEGE, VKSU, ARA(BIHAR) Barani was an eminent scholar and had written numerous valuable books. The two most well known his works are Tarikh-i-Firozshahi and Fatwa-i-Jahandari, which provide valuable information about the history of that period. He completed his work Tarikh-i-Firozshahi in 1357 and dedicated to the ruling sovereign Firozshah . His other historical work Fatwa-i-Jahandari which he completed after Tarikh-i- Firozshahi analyses the qualities, virtues and talents that a good monarch should possess. He also describes the principles of administration and ideals of government and illustrates them by examples from the history of Iran and other Muslim countries. Barani held that his work was superior to the work of earlier writers. Barani, the first Indian Muslim to compose a history of India as well as connected with the ruling circles of Delhi. As an eye witness of some events and with easy access to the court he had ample opportunity of knowing the accurate details. Barani was the historian who always deals with the king and his administrative success and failures . As professor John Dowson welcome the approach of Barani rather than earlier Muslim writers. He says’ yet has a care for matters besides the interests of his religion and them warlike exploits of the sovereign representatives of his faith’. He freely criticize the action and characters of the kings and great men of the time dealing out his praises and censures in no uncertain terms. Apart from the above two famous eminent writings, he wrote many other valuable books on various subjects (1) Sanai-i- Muhammadi (2) Salat-i- Kabir (3) Enayatnamah-i-Elahi (4) Maasir -i-Saadat (5) Hasrat Namah (6) Tarikh-i-Barmikia Sana-i-Muhammadi deals with the prophet Muhammad and his life. -
Muslim Entrepreneurs in Public Life Between India and the Gulf: Making Good and Doing Good
Muslim entrepreneurs in public life between India and the Gulf: making good and doing good Filippo Osella University of Sussex Caroline Osella School of Oriental and African Studies Muslim entrepreneurs from Kerala, South India, are at the forefront of India’s liberalizing economy, keen innovators who have adopted the business and labour practices of global capitalism in both Kerala and the Gulf. They are also heavily involved in both charity and politics through activity in Kerala’s Muslim public life. They talk about their ‘social mindedness’ as a combination of piety and economic calculation, the two seen not as excluding but reinforcing each other. By promoting modern education among Muslims, entrepreneurs seek to promote economic development while also embedding economic practices within a framework of ethics and moral responsibilities deemed to be ‘Islamic’. Inscribing business into the rhetoric of the ‘common good’ also legitimizes claims to leadership and political influence. Orientations towards self-transformation through education, adoption of a ‘systematic’ lifestyle, and a generalized rationalization of practices have acquired wider currency amongst Muslims following the rise of reformist influence and are now mobilized to sustain novel forms of capital accumulation. At the same time, Islam is called upon to set moral and ethical boundaries for engagement with the neoliberal economy. Instrumentalist analyses cannot adequately explain the vast amounts of time and money which Muslim entrepreneurs put into innumerable ‘social’ projects, and neither ‘political Islam’ nor public pietism adequately captures the possibilities or motivations for engagement among contemporary reformist-orientated Muslims. While historians have written extensively about the participation of elites in processes of social and religious reform in late colonial India (see, e.g., Gupta 2002; Joshi 2001; Robinson 1993 [1974]; Walsh 2004; cf. -

© 2019 JETIR June 2019, Volume 6, Issue 6 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) Ancestral Centers of Kerala Muslim Socio- Cultural and Educational Enlightenments Dr. A P Alavi Bin Mohamed Bin Ahamed Associate Professor of Islamic history Post Graduate and Research Department of Islamic History, Government College, Malappuram. Abstract: This piece of research paper attempts to show that the genesis and growth of Islam, a monotheistic religion in Kerala. Of the Indian states, Malabar was the most important state with which the Arabs engaged in trade from very ancient time. Advance of Islam in Kerala,it is even today a matter of controversy. Any way as per the established authentic historical records, we can definitely conclude that Islam reached Kerala coast through the peaceful propagation of Arab-Muslim traders during the life time of prophet Muhammad. Muslims had been the torch bearers of knowledge and learning during the middle ages. Traditional education centres, i.e Maqthabs, Othupallis, Madrasas and Darses were the ancestral centres of socio-cultural and educational enlightenments, where a new language, Arabic-Malayalam took its birth. It was widely used to impart educational process and to exhort anti-colonial feelings and religious preaching in Medieval Kerala. Keywords: Darses, Arabi-Malayalam, Othupalli, Madrasa. Introduction: Movements of revitalization, renewal and reform are periodically found in the glorious history of Islam since its very beginning. For higher religious learning, there were special arrangements in prominent mosques. In the early years of Islam, the scholars from Arab countries used to come here frequently and some of them were entrusted with the charges of the Darses, higher learning centres, one such prominent institution was in Ponnani. -
MPSE-004 Social and Political Thoughts
MPSE-004 Social and Political Thoughts POLITICAL THOUGHT INDIA: THE DIVERSE STRANDS Structure 1.1 Jntroductioti 1.2 State and Sovereignty in Ancient India 1.3 State and Sovereignty in Medieval India 1.4 Religion and Polity l .S Summary 1.6 Exercises 1 .I INTRODUCTION To understand ~nodcrnIndian political thought, it is essential to have a broad view of the historical processes through which the modern polity has emerged. We have civilisation which is comparable with the Grcek civilisation and as Plato and Aristotle are considered as the pionecrs of westcrn political tradition, so are our ancient and medicval texts on statecraft. Whether it is tlie concept of monarchy, republicanism, council of ~ninisters,welfare state, diplomacy, espionage syste~nor any other political concept/inslitutio11isitutioi which is known in 111odet-npolitical parlance, all tliese Iiave refercnces in our early political traditions. Stale, society and governance are interlinked to each other. If we look at our past we will find that there was a rime when people used to live in small groups based on kinship ties and there was no need felt for a11 authority to coiltroi people's life. But with the growth of population atid claslics between groups of people, the need was felt for an authority wlio would provide the rcquired protection to his people and whose order would be obeyed by all. With the coming of groups of peoplc together, society came into existeilce which was followed by the emergence of state aiid the art of governance. So in a way we can say that individual nceds led to tlie c~licrgc~~ceof society and it is the collective need of the society which in turn led to tlic forn~ulationof various structures and theories related to state and governance.
