De La Pièce Au Sultan : Une Légitimation Dans Les Marges DE LA PIÈCE AU SULTAN : UNE LÉGITIMATION DANS LES MARGES JEAN-DAViD RiCHAUD Résumé Les Seldjoukides (XIe-XIIe siècles) ont introduit au Moyen Orient de nombreuses innovations, dont un nouvel usage des bor- dures de champ des monnaies. Cette utilisation, inspirée de ce qui se faisait avant eux dans les marges orientales de l’Empire abbasside leur permet d’exprimer une culture, un rapport à la titulature et une organisation de l’Etat qui leur est propre. Mots clés : Seldjoukides, numismatique, marges Abstract The Seljuqs (11th – 12th centuries) introduced in the Middle East a lot of innovations, including a new use of the piece’s bor- der. This news uses, inspired from the practices of the oriental margins of Abbassid’s Empire, let them to express their own culture, titles and State’s organization.

  • A Study on Islamic Human Figure Representation in Light of a Dancing Scene
    Hanaa M. Adly A Study on Islamic Human Figure Representation in Light of a Dancing Scene Islamic decoration does indeed know human figures. This is a controversial subject1, as many Muslims believe that there can be no figural art in an Islamic context, basing their beliefs on the Hadith. While figural forms are rare in Muslim religious buildings, in much of the medieval Islamic world, figural art was not only tolerated but also encouraged.2 1 Richard Ettinghausen, ‘Islamic Art',’ The Metropolitan Museum of Art Bulletin, (1973) xxxiii , 2‐52, Nabil F. Safwat, ‘Reviews of Terry Allen: Five Essays on Islamic Art,’ ix. 131, Sebastopol, CA, 1988, Bulletin of the School of Oriental and African Studies (BSOAS), (London: University of London, 1990), liii . 134‐135 [no. 1]. 2 James Allan, ‘Metalwork Treasures from the Islamic Courts,’ National Council for Culture, Art and Heritage, 2004, 1. 1 The aim of this research is to develop a comprehensive framework for understanding figurative art. This research draws attention to the popularization of the human figures and their use in Islamic art as a means of documenting cultural histories within Muslim communities and societies. Drinking, dancing and making music, as well as pastimes like shooting fowl and chasing game, constitute themes in Islamic figurative representations.3 Out of a number of dancing scenes. in particular, I have selected two examples from the Seljuqs of Iran and Anatolia in the 12th‐13th. centuries.4 One scene occurs on a ceramic jar (Pl. 1) and the other on a metal candlestick (Pl. 2).5 Both examples offer an excellent account of the artistic tradition of the Iranian people, who since antiquity have played an important role in the evolution of the arts and crafts of the Near East.6 The founder of the Seljuq dynasty, Tughril, took the title of Sultan in Nishapur in 1037 when he occupied Khurasan and the whole of Persia.

  • AL-GHAZĀLĪ AS an ISLAMIC REFORMER (MUSLIH): an Evaluative Study of the Attempts of the Imam Abū Hāmid Al-Ghazālī at Islamic Reform (Islāh)
    AL-GHAZĀLĪ AS AN ISLAMIC REFORMER (MUSLIH): An Evaluative Study of the Attempts of the Imam Abū Hāmid al-Ghazālī at Islamic Reform (Islāh) by MOHAMED ABUBAKR A AL-MUSLEH A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Theology & Religion School of Historical Studies The University of Birmingham July 2007 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT Notwithstanding the enduring and rich “legacy of islāh (Islamic reform),” the study of it is relatively scarce and remarkably limited to the modern times. The present study attempts to shed some light on this legacy by evaluating the contribution of an outstanding pre-modern Muslim scholar, al-Ghazālī. Surprisingly, some studies create an absolutely positive picture of him, while others portray him in an extremely negative light. Thus, this study raises the question of whether it is justifiable to classify him as a muslih (Islamic reformer). In light of the analysis of the concept “islāh” and the complexity of al-Ghazālī’s time, the study demonstrates his life- experience and verifies that he devoted himself to general islāh at a late period of his life, after succeeding in his self-islāh.

  • The Rise of the Seljuqs and Their State in Central Asia
    Australian Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences, 6(12): 410-417, 2012 ISSN 1991-8178 The Rise of the Seljuqs and their State in Central Asia Arshad Islam, Associate Professor Head, Department of History & Civilization International Islamic University Malaysia. Abstract: The Seljuqs, who arose in the 11thcentury CE in Central Asia, created one of the largest Muslim Empires in the Middle East, unifying the Muslim lands of the Abbasid east and giving a new impetus to the course of Muslim history. They were the most prominent Turkic Muslim dynasty prior to the Ottomans, with dominion throughout central Asia, Iran, Iraq, Kirman, Syria and Anatolia; it was the Seljuq threat to the Byzantine Empire that precipitated the Crusades. However, little is generally known of the origins and rise of the Suljuqs; this paper explores the course of the genesis of Seljuq power and authority. It traces the rise of the Seljuqs from a minor branch of a Turkic tribe through their incorporation into the fabric of the dwindling Samanid province, then the various manoeuvresand struggles that took place between them and rival Turkic peoples – the Ghaznavids and the Qarakhanids and the various wars for supremacy in Khurasan. It then charts the life and campaigns of Sultan Jalaluddin Malikshah, Sultan Rukn Al-Dunya Tughril Beg, relations with the Abbasid Caliphs (including marriage), the accession of Sultan Alp Arslan, campaigns against the Byzantnies, along with numerous intra-Seljuq wars of succession and rebellions, and the important role of the vizier Nizamul Mulk. Based mainly on Arabic, Persian, Urdu and English sources, the study focuses on the intellectual legacy of the Seljuqs, including their interest in the progress of science and philosophy.

Noor Fuady Program Doktor Pendidikan Agama Islam, Pascasarjana IAIN Antasari Banjarmasin Abstrak Puncak kemajuan pendidikan Islam, yaitu pada masa Malik Syah, wazir Nizham al-Mulk dari bani Saljuk yang membangun Madrasah Nizhamiyah yang nantinya menjadi perguruan tinggi terbesar di zamannya. Madrasah Nizhamiyyah telah berjasa dalam mengembangkan madzhab Sunni Syafi’iyah dan menumbangkan madzhab Syi’ah di daerah itu.materi yang diajarkan pada madrasah ini, adalah fiqih dan tauhid, di samping cabang-cabang ilmu agama yang lain seperti ushul fiqh, ilmu-ilmu al-Quran, hadits Nabi, akhlak, diajarkan di situ. Alasannya adalah bahwa setiap muslim wajib (fard al-’ain) mempelajari ilmu-ilmu tersebut cabang-cabang ilmu agama yang lain, seperti nahwu, sharaf, adab juga disajikan disitu meskipun ilmu-ilmu itu hanya sebagai pelengkap. Madrasah ini betul-betul menyeleksi calon Mahasiswanya dengan sangat ketat, sehingga betul-betul menjadi sekolah favorit sampai saat itu dan wajar jika banyak alumninya menjadi ulama besar.Nizhamiyyah sangat mendukung kemajuan ilmu pengetahun, hal ini terbukti pengelola Nizhamiyyah menyediakan beasiswa/biaya bagi guru yang mau mengadakan penelitian untuk menemukan teori-teori baru.

While the cultural and civil conditions of this governments and the elements existing in this culture convince the researcher to take a step, beyond a simple identification and expression of political history, to analyze and explain how these cultural elements entered and what the reasons were and how can the Seljuq architecture be exalted in Kerman. Undoubtedly, one of the main cultural and developmental symbols of the Seljuk government of Kerman is the Turānshah Mosque (the Malek Mosque). Therefore, in the present study, it is tried to firstly explain how the Seljuq government was formed in Kerman and at the second and most important stage, to explain how Malek Mosque was constructed and how its situation is. Therefore, the main questions are: how is the current situation of Malek Mosque? And how does new urbanism affect its physical space? The results of the present study shows that this mosque has been constructed in the Seljuq era and like other architectural monuments of the Seljuq era, it has a lot of strength and beauties.

  • The First Turkish Navy Admiral: Chaka Bey

Wczoraj i dziś perspectives on culture No. 31 (4/2020) Sabire Arık http://orcid.org/0000-0003-3662-9866 Ankara University, Ankara [email protected] DOI: 10.35765/pk.2020.3104.06 The First Turkish Navy Admiral: Chaka Bey ABSTRACT Turks paid special attention to the organization of ground troops due to their geographical location in Central Asia which is why they built the strongest land army in the world. Their first naval endeavor emerged after the conquest of Anatolia. This was because of Anatolia’s geographical position, being an Asian peninsula extending towards the west and situated between the con- tinents of Europe and Asia, and also a conjunction of land and sea routes between the continents. With the start of the Turkish conquest of Anatolia after the victorious Battle of Malazgirt in 1071, the strategy of Turkish domi- nation changed. The new rulers of the area surrounded by sea from three sides realized that the way to protect their territory was the domination of the seas. During this period, mass migration took place from Turkey to the region of western Anatolia, and on the other hand, Chaka Bey (Çaka Bey) managed to dominate Smyrna (Izmir) after the change on the throne of the Byzantine Empire in 1081. He established a Turkish Seaside Principality (Türk Sahil Beyliği or İzmir Türk Beyliği). Although his life was short, the first coastal Turkish state is significant from the point of view of Turkish history, meaning that the history of the Turkish navy starts in 1081, which is the date of the first fleet built by Chaka Bey.

I learned about the concepts of just rule in HIST 121 Middle Eastern History: 1200-1800 during fall quarter of 2018. I remember being fascinated by how this concept could hold empires together. I have taken three other courses with Dr. Zarinebaf (HIST 122, 128, 197) from Iranian film and literature to urban studies of Middle Eastern cities. Dr. Zarinebaf provided an abundance of feedback on my drafts, both in class and in office hours, and I owe a great debt of gratitude to her. My grandmother Mary (1933-2015) always provided me the resources and strength to accomplish any task I set my mind to. Though she didn’t live to see the completion of this project, this work is as much hers as it is mine. My parents, Ahmud and Debra, supplied their unconditional love and support throughout my time researching and writing this project. My brother Joseph drove 100 miles to visit me and treat me to lunch when I needed it the most.

  • Selçuklu Ve Ismâilî Kalesi Girdkûh*
    Türkiyat Mecmuası, c.27/1, 2017, 249-257 SELÇUKLU VE İSMÂİLÎ KALESİ GİRDKÛH* Cihan PİYADEOĞLU** ÖZ Girdkûh, İran’ın kuzey doğusundaki Dâmgân yakınlarında, tarihi çok eskilere dayanan müstahkem bir kaledir. Sahip olduğu su kaynağı ve tarım ürünlerinin bolca yetiştiği bir coğrafyada bulunması, önemini daha da arttırmaktadır. Kale, Sultan Tuğrul Bey zamanında Kutalmış b. Arslan Yabgu’nu sayesinde Selçuklular’ın hâkimiyetine girmiştir. Bir süre Kutalmış’ın idaresinde kaldıktan sonra yerel bir hanedan olan Ziyârîler’e bırakılmıştır. Kutalmış’ın Tuğrul Bey’e isyan ettiği sırada sığındığı kaledir. Sonraki dönemde hakkında fazla bilgi bulunmayan kale, Sultan Berkyaruk zamanında İsmâilîler’in kontrolü altına girmiştir. Bu tarihten sonra uzun süre İsmâilî hareketinin en önemli merkezlerinden biri durumundadır. Hattâ hareketin merkezi olan Alamut’a zor zamanlarında en büyük desteği veren yine Girdkûh’tur. Bu süreç Moğollar’ın bölgeye gelişine kadar devam etmiş, ardından İsmâilîler ile başlatılan mücadeleler sırasında önemli hedeflerden biri olmuştur. Ancak kalenin müstahkem bir mevkide bulunması Moğollar’a uzun süre direnmesini sağlamış, on yedi yıl süren kuşatma sonucunda ele geçirilebilmiştir. Ele geçirilmiş olan diğer İsmâilî kaleleri yıkılmış olmasına rağmen Girdkûh onlardan farklı olarak Moğollar tarafından kullanılmaya devam etmiştir. Kale hakkındaki en son kayıt 786/1384 tarihine aittir.

Since the castle dominated a fertile agricultural area and had an ample water supply, it possessed a great strategic advantage. Gerdkūh came under the Seljukid control during the reign of Sultan Tughril (1040-1063) through the efforts of Qutalmish ibn Aslan Yabgu.
