Mystical Dimensions of Islam by ANNEMARIE SCHIMMEL MYSTICAL DIMENSIONS OF ISLAM The Universit y of North Carolina Press Chapel Hill 244 / SUFI ORDERS AND FRATERNITIES very popular, but fo r him the samdc was mainly a practical device to dissipate the lust of the dervishes, which might otherwise find other, more dangerous ways of distraction. Abu Sa cid's name is , or rather was , usually connecte d wit h th e first examples of Persian mystical poetry. He is the alleged author of a number o f poem s in which the ruba'i, quatrain, with it s rhyme scheme a a x a, is used as a vehicle for mystical thought. We ca n b e quite sure that none of the quatrains formerly attributed t o him are actually his ; according t o hi s ow n statement , his love-intoxicate d teacher Bishr ibn Yasin was the author o f such verses—a genre tha t later became very popular. 20 A true representative of early Sufi poetry in quatrains, thoug h i n a popular meter and vernacular speech, is Baba Tahir, who died i n Khorramabad in the first part of the eleventh century. 21 Abu Sa cid passed away in 1049 . It is said that on his deathbed h e bestowed his khirqa t o Ahmad-i Jam Zandapil , who was just abou t to be born. Ahmad-i Jam was a Persian saint who was the opposite of Ab u Sa cld i n almos t ever y respect: stern , prou d o f his mystical power, drawing people to repentance, not t o love, and ofte n usin g his spiritual strengt h for revenge and punishment. 22 Abu Sa cid's tomb was destroyed when the wild Ghuzz tribes con- quered Mayhan a about 1180 . B y that time , th e first real Suf i fra- ternities had come into existence—namely, the Suhrawardiyya and the Qadiriyya, which even today are influential in large areas of the Muslim world.

SUFI ORDERS AND FRATERNITIES / 245 Imam Ghazzall's younger brother. Suhraward i is the author o f one of th e most widely read handbooks o f mystical education, Addb al- muridln, "Th e Manner s o f th e Adepts, " a classi c that ha s bee n translated into th e different Islami c language s and ha s often bee n imitated. Even more influential than he was his brother's son, Shihabuddm Abu Haf s c Umar as-Suhraward i (1145-1234) , wh o studie d unde r him and whose treatise on Sufi theories, cAwdrif al-mcfarif, was— partly i n th e Arabi c original , partl y i n translation — even mor e widely read than hi s uncle's book an d becam e one of the standar d works taught in Indian madrasas in courses on Sufism.24 It certainly enhanced th e influenc e of th e Suhrawardiyy a order , whic h soo n spread into India . Abu Haf s cUmar entered upon a political career as well; h e be- came shaykh ash-shuyukh, the official Suf i master of Baghdad, unde r the caliph an-Nasi r at a time when this last enterprising membe r of the Abbasid dynasty dreamed o f reviving the stagnant spiritua l lif e throughout the Islamic lands and was trying to unite Islami c ruler s in defense against the Mongol threat. Abu Hafs served as the caliph's ambassador to the Ayyubid rulers of Egypt and Syria as well as to the Seljukids o f Rum, whose power ha d just reached it s apex i n thei r flourishing capita l o f Konya — the plac e tha t wa s to becom e a ne w center of mystical and religious life in the years following Suhrawar- di's visit. Abu Hafs cUmar's friendly relations with the ruling classes also determined the attitude of his followers in India in later centu- ries; they were usually more open to the exigencies o f the world and more willing to accept political participation than their brethren i n other orders . Abu Haf s cUmar helped th e caliph propagate hi s ideas of renew- ing th e futuwwa ideals ; i t ha s even bee n suggeste d tha t an-Nasi r organized the futuwwa order, in part, to diffuse Suhrawardl's teach- ings.25 For al l practica l purposes , th e calip h ha d institutionalize d the so-called futuwwa movement, which was closely connected with Sufism.

Wilberforce Clarke, trans., The "^Awariful-Ma^drif" written in the thirteenth century b y Shaikh Shahnbu^d-Din Umar bi n Muhammad-i Suhrawardi (1891 ; reprint ed., New York, 1970) , from a Persian translation of the Arabi c text. 25. Herbert Mason, Two Medieval Muslim Statesmen (Th e Hague, 1971) , p. 124 . 246 / SUFI ORDERS AND FRATERNITIES Essentially, the idea of futuwwa goes back to early Sufism. The fata i s "the young man," "th e brav e youth," generou s an d faithful . The Kora n had called the Seven Sleepers fttyan (plural of fata; Sur a 18:10). Hallaj use d th e ter m fo r those who excel by their absolut e faithfulness and loyalty to treaties, including, particularly, Iblis and Pharaoh, wh o remained faithfu l t o their claims . But generally th e term wa s connected wit h C AH ibn Ab i Talib, as the sentenc e goes: "There is no fata but CA1I, and no sword but Dhirl-Fiqar."26 The ter m jawanmard, th e Persia n translatio n o f fata, i s used i n the hagiographies for many Sufis, ofte n fo r those who ar e classifie d among th e sincere malamatls. This connection i s quite likely ; an d Sulami, wh o had compose d a treatise abou t th e Maldmatiyya, de - voted a treatis e t o th e futuwwa a s well, in whic h h e enumerate d 212 definitions of the true fata. Qushayr I followed him b y treatin g the futuwwa i n a special chapter o f his Risala. "The fata i s he wh o has no enemy, and who does not care whether he is with a saint or an infidel; and Muhammad was the perfect fata, for at Doomsday every- body will say 'I,' but he will say 'My community' " (Q 103). On th e whole, one may accept Ibn c Arabi's definition that a fata i s he wh o honors those senior to him, who shows mercy to those junior or in- ferior to him, and prefers those who are his equals to himself. The Sufi ideal of Uhdr, t o prefer others to oneself, is brought t o it s per- fection in the futuwwa concept. In the early thirteenth century, an- Nasir tried once more to revive these ideas, but withou t much suc- cess. Yet futuwwa groups existed in several parts of the Near East, where they constituted an important factor in the social life. In Tur - key, the related groups of the akhi, in which only blameless men of respectable professio n were accepted a s members, maintaine d th e futuwwa ideals throughout the next centuries; the North African traveler Ib n Battut a (d . 1368 ) has told, i n hi s travel account , ho w well he was received by these hospitable sodalities in Anatolia. Ou t of them associations like the "socialist" movement of Akhi Evran in the fourteenth century came into existence ; the relations betwee n futuwwa group s an d th e guild s hav e bee n studie d severa l times , though with different conclusions.

    Classical Persian Literature Bahman Solati (Ph.D), 2015 University of California, Berkeley [email protected] Introduction Studying the roots of a particular literary history enables us to better understand the allusions the literature transmits and why we appreciate them. It also allows us to foresee how the literature may progress.1 I will try to keep this attitude in the reader’s mind in offering this brief summary of medieval Persian literature, a formidable task considering the variety and wealth of the texts and documentation on the subject.2 In this study we will pay special attention to the development of the Persian literature over the last millennia, focusing in particular on the initial development and background of various literary genres in Persian. Although the concept of literary genres is rather subjective and unstable,3 reviewing them is nonetheless a useful approach for a synopsis, facilitating greater understanding, deeper argumentation, and further speculation than would a simple listing of dates, titles, and basic biographical facts of the giants of Persian literature. Also key to literary examination is diachronicity, or the outlining of literary development through successive generations and periods. Thriving Persian literature, undoubtedly shaped by historic events, lends itself to this approach: one can observe vast differences between the Persian literature of the tenth century and that of the eleventh or the twelfth, and so on.4 The fourteenth century stands as a bridge between the previous and the later periods, the Mongol and Timurid, followed by the Ṣafavids in Persia and the Mughals in India. Given the importance of local courts and their support of poets and writers, it is quite understandable that literature would be significantly influenced by schools of thought in different provinces of the Persian world.5 In this essay, I use the word literature to refer to the written word adeptly and artistically created.

  • Exploratory Notes on the Futuwwa and Its Several Incarnations
    Chapter 14 Exploratory Notes on the Futuwwa and Its Several Incarnations Daniel C. Peterson t is a privilege and a pleasure to participate in this volume in Ihonor of Professor S. Kent Brown, who has been a major help to me at pivotal points in my career. I first went to the Middle East in a Jerusalem semester abroad group that he led during the first half of 1978. And then, when I returned to Egypt in the autumn of 1978 with my new bride, it was Kent Brown who met us at the Cairo airport and allowed us to stay with his family until we found housing of our own. He was also instrumental in setting the stage for my receiving a job offer at Brigham Young University and has remained a valued colleague, a friend, and a model of Christian liv- ing ever since. These notes were first compiled in a 1981 graduate seminar at the American University in Cairo for Professor George Scanlan. Despite my intention of getting back to the subject, however, I had not. So, when I was invited to contribute to this volume in honor of a friend whom my wife and I will always associate with our time in Egypt, it seemed a good opportunity to resurrect something that I commenced there. My hope is either to pursue this topic further myself or, at least, to encourage some other researcher to look at it. Beyond minor mechanical changes (the paper was written on a 288 Ƶ Daniel C. Peterson typewriter), I have also made explicit some of the similarities that I perceive between the movements described here and the Gadian- ton robbers of the Book of Mormon—similarities that, for obvious reasons, I left unnoted in that first draft in Egypt.

  • Were Customs Dues Levied at the Time of the Prophet Muhammad?
    WERE CUSTOMS DUES LEVIED AT THE TIME OF THE PROPHET MUHAMMAD? Michael LECKER The Hebrew University of Jerusalem When was the customs duty introduced in Islam? According to W. Bjorkman, writing in the wake of C. H. Becker, it was adopted at about the beginning of the Umayyad period or shortly before it. * In what follows it is argued that the levying of this time-old tax in Islam started already at the time of the Prophet Muhanmiad who continued existing practice in Arabia. ^ 1. MlfflAMMAD'S KHARÀJ-FREE MARKET WAS A MARKET WITHOUT RENT Before discussing customs dues proper, we should examine the meaning of the term kharàj when it is used in connection with the market of the Prophet in Medina. It will be argued that it did not mean customs but rent, and hence should be eliminated from the discussion of customs in early Islam. In a seminal though concise article which appeared twenty-five years ago, M. J. Kister drew attention to several reports that shed Hght on an important aspect of the clash between Muhammad and the Jews of Medina, namely the economic rivalry between them. ^ In ' EP, S.V. Maks; Becker, C. H., Papyri Schott-Reinhardt, I, Veroffentlichungen aus der Heidelberger Papyms-Sammlung, IE, Papyri Schott-Reinhardt, Heidelberg, 1906, 53-54, who argues that customs dues were introduced much later than the poll-tax and land-tax, hence the opposition to them among the pious. But the evidence on the levying of customs from the time of Muhammad onwards quoted later in this study seems to be overwhelming.
