  • The Wayangand the Islamic Encounter in Java
    25 THE WAYANG AND THE ISLAMIC ENCOUNTER IN JAVA Roma Ulinnuha A Lecture in Faculty of Ushuluddin, Study of Religion and Islamic Thoughts, UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta. Email: [email protected] Abstrak Penelitian ini membahas hubungan antara wayang dan proses penyebaran Islam. Wayang adalah fenomena budaya Jawa yang digunakan oleh para wali pada sekitar abad ke-15 dan ke-16 sebagai media dakwah Islam. Tulisan ini fokus pada Serat Erang-Erang Nata Pandawa yang mengulas tentang karakter Pandawa dalam hubungannya dengan Islam. ﻣﺴﺘﺨﻠﺺ – (Wayang ) ) . ( . (Serat Erang-Erang Nata Pandawa ) - ( ) . Keywords: Wayang, Serat Erang-Erang, Javanese, Wali A. Introduction It has been an interesting stance to discuss the relationship between religion and community in terms of the variety of possibilities of some unique emergences in the process. While people regards religious realms a total guidance that relates the 26 Millah Vol. X, No. 1, Agustus 2010 weakness of human being to the powerful—the Covenant, Javanese people, views religion providing a set of beliefs, symbols and rituals which have been faced a rigorous encounter along with the development of communities in the past, in the present and in the future. The dawn of Islam in Java shared the experience of this relationship, found in why and how the wali used the wayang in supporting their religious types of activities under the authority of the Court of Demak. The research discusses the relationship between the wayang and the role of wali ‘Saint’ in spreading Islam under the patron of the Court of Demak from the fifteenth to the sixteenth centuries. There have been some research conducted on the same field, but this aims at discussing the wayang as the phenomena of cultural heritage of the Javanese descendents and inhabitants, while the wali ‘Saint’ is framed as the element of religious representation in Java at the time.

  • THE FADÂIL AL-QUR'ân GENRE and ITS SOCIO-POLITICAL SIGNIFICANCE Dr. Asma AFSARUDDÎN
    THE FADÂIL AL-QUR'ÂN GENRE AND ITS SOCIO-POLITICAL SIGNIFICANCE Dr. Asma AFSARUDDÎN* ÖZET FEDÂİLÜ' L-KUR'ÂN TÜRÜ VE SOSYO-POLİTİK ÖNEMİ Fedâilü'l-Kur'ân, muhtelif hadîs koieksİyonlarmdaki bölümlere ya da Kur'ân'm faziletlerini konu edinen müstakil çalışmalara verilen genel bir başlıktır. Genel olarak, bu konuyla ilgili literatür görmezden gelinmiş ve tarihçi için ciddi anlamda malzeme içer­ mediği düşüncesiyle derinliğine çalışılmamıştır. Ben bu makalede, hem dinî tarih hem de sosyal tarih çalışanları için bu literatürün çok yararh olduğunu ve Kur'ân tarihiyle ilgili veriler yanında, ilk dönem dinî ve entelektüel muhitin oluşumuyla ilgili de zengin bir muhteva taşıdığını göstermeye çalışacağım. Bunun için de fedâilü'l-Kur'ân türünde oluştu­ rulmuş belli başlı eserlerin muhtevasım tespit ve tahlil edeceğim. SUMMARY Fadâil al-Qur'ân is the usual title given to chapters in various hadith compilations or to individual works that deal with the "excellences" or "virtues of the Qur'ân." It is a sub-category of a rather voluminous literature in Islam called fadâil or manâqib ("virtues" or "excellences"). In general, the fadâil material has not been studied in depth, usually dismissed as praise or hagiographie literature that is not worthy of the historian's serious attention. In this paper, I seek to show that both the religious and the social historian may profitably mine the fadâil al-Qur'ân literature for valuable insights into, for example, early attitudes towards writing conventions in the mushafs, manner of recitation, the probity of accepting wages for teaching the Qur'ân, and the authoritativeness of oral vs. written transmission of the Qur'ânic text.

  • On Conservation and Development: the Role of Traditional Mud Brick Firms in Southern Yemen*
    On Conservation and Development: The Role of Traditional Mud Brick Firms in Southern Yemen* Deepa Mehta Graduate School of Architecture, Planning & Preservation** Columbia University in the City of New York New York, NY 10027, USA [email protected] ABSTRACT A study of small and medium enterprises that make up the highly specialized mud brick construction industry in southern Yemen reveals how the practice has been sustained through closely-linked regional production chains and strong firm inter-relationships. Yemen, as it struggles to grow as a nation, has the potential to gain from examining the contribution that these institutions make to an ancient building practice that still continues to provide jobs and train new skilled workers. The impact of these firms can be bolstered through formal recognition and capacity development. UNESCO, ICOMOS, and other conservation agencies active in the region provide a model that emphasizes architectural conservation as well as the concurrent development of the existing socioeconomic linkages. The primary challenge is that mud brick construction is considered obsolete, but evidence shows that the underlying institutions are resilient and sustainable, and can potentially provide positive regional policy implications. Key Words: conservation, planning, development, informal sector, capacity building, Yemen, mud brick construction. * Paper prepared for GLOBELICS 2009: Inclusive Growth, Innovation and Technological Change: education, social capital and sustainable development, October 6th –

  • Make This Your Best Ramadan Yet! in the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
    A DAILY PLANNER AND GUIDE FOR ALL AGES! 3655 Wheeler Ave Alexandria, VA 22304 IRUSA.ORG 1-855-447-1001 Tax ID# 95-4453134 Make this your best Ramadan yet! in the name of allah, the most gracious, the most merciful All thanks and praise is due to Allah alone, the Lord of the Worlds. We praise Him, seek refuge with Him, and seek His forgiveness. We seek refuge with Allah from the evils of our souls, and the mistakes in our actions. Whomever Allah Guides, there is none who can misguide him, and whoever Allah misguides, there is none who can guide him. Verily, there is none worthy of being worshipped except Allah, and Muhammad (Peace be upon him) is His servant and Messenger. Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) reminds us in the Qur’an that the month of Ramadan contains limited precious days — with an extraordinary opportunity to reach out and connect to Him. He tells us of this powerfully, All the actions of people are for them, except for fasting. Fasting is for Me and it is I who rewards it. Hence the purpose of this month is Allah — and Allah (swt) alone. Fasting is a means to attain nearness to Him. Keeping this in mind, we must make the most of these days. The best way to take advantage of Ramadan is to develop a Ramadan action plan — because a failure to plan is a plan for failure. If you don’t set goals, it gets difficult to measure yourself and assess the current state of your worship.

  • Haj Al-Qiran Hajj Al-Qiran Involves Combining Umrah and Hajj, with Only One Ihram for Both
    Haj Al-Qiran Hajj al-Qiran involves combining Umrah and Hajj, with only one Ihram for both Stages of Al-Qiran In this section we give details of each stage of Hajj al-Qiran and provide advice on the rituals that must be performed if the Hajj is to be completed satisfactorily. Ihram Bathe yourself (ghusl). Put on the white clothing of Ihram. The white garment of the Ihram consists of two pieces of white cloth: the cloth covering the upper part of the body is the Rida'; the cloth covering the lower part of the body is the Izar. After donning the white garment of Ihram and verbally declaring the intention to perform Umrah and the specific type of Hajj, recite the Talbiyah. Now that you are in a state of Ihram, you are subject to a number of prohibitions. You must NOT: wear sewn clothes cut or pluck hair clip nails cover your head wear perfume engage in sexual intercourse Other prohibitions include entering into a marriage contract, hunting, or cutting down trees in the Sacred Precinct. Performing the Welcome Tawaf and Sa'y The correct procedure for these rites is set out in the Rituals of Umrah but we repeat them here for the convenience of the user: Enter the Holy Sanctuary (al Masjid al Haram), preferably right foot first through the Bab as-Salam gate, reciting the Talbiyah: 'Labbayk, Allahumma Labbayk. Labbayk, La Shareeka laka labbayk. Innal-hamda wan-ni'mata laka wal-mulk La shareeka lak' The above means: 'Here I am O Allah, (in response to Your call), here I am.

  • Īmān, Islām, Taqwā, Kufr, Shirk, and Nifāq: Definitions, Examples and Impacts on Human Life
    IIUC Studies 14(2) DOI: https://doi.org/10.3329/iiucs.v14i2.39882 Īmān, Islām, taqwā, kufr, shirk, and nifāq: Definitions, examples and impacts on human life Md. Mahmudul Hassan Centre for University Requirement Courses (CENURC) International Islamic University Chittagong (IIUC), Bangladesh Abstract The Holy Qur‟an encompasses the comprehensive code for mankind to live a rewarding life in this world, to rescue from the Jahannam and to enter the Jannah in the Hereafter. Īmān, Islām, taqwā, kufr, shirk, and nifāq are, the six significant terms, used in the Noble Qur‟an frequently. All of them represent the characteristics of human beings. The possessors of these characters will go to their eternal destination; the Jannah or Jahannam. The Jannah is the aftermath of īmān, Islam and taqwā. On the other hand, kufr, shirk, and nifāq lead to the Jahannam. This study intends to present the definitions and examples of these six terms according to the Qur‟anic statement, and then shed light on the impact of each character on human life quoting the evidence from the Holy Qur‟an and the Traditions of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). The possessors of these six remarkable terms are entitled successively as mu'min, muslim, muttaqī to be rewarded Jannah and kafīr, mushrik, and munāfiq to be punished in Jahannam. Keywords The Comprehensive code, Eternal destination, Qur‟anic terms Paper type Literature review 1. Introduction Īmān, Islām, and taqwā are three positive divine instructions whereas, kufr, shirk, and nifāq are three negative characteristics which are strongly prohibited by divine decrees. The Jannah and the Jahannam are two eternal destinations of humanities in the Hereafter.

    THE HADITH PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Bill Warner | 70 pages | 01 Dec 2010 | CSPI | 9781936659012 | English | United States The Hadith PDF Book The reports of Muhammad's and sometimes companions behavior collected by hadith compilers include details of ritual religious practice such as the five salat obligatory Islamic prayers that are not found in the Quran, but also everyday behavior such as table manners, [52] dress, [53] and posture. Hadith have been called "the backbone" of Islamic civilization , [5] and within that religion the authority of hadith as a source for religious law and moral guidance ranks second only to that of the Quran [6] which Muslims hold to be the word of God revealed to his messenger Muhammad.

This narrative is verified by Abu Bakr who has the least narrations of the Hadith of all the companions of the prophet despite him being the companion that was with him the most. The first people to hear hadith were the companions who preserved it and then conveyed it to those after them.
