Through a detailed analysis to Ghada Karmi's In Search of Fatima and Yasmin Hai's The Making of Mr. Hai's Daughter, the study moves beyond national and cultural borders to highlight some of the shared political and aesthetic concerns of Arab and South Asian writers, especially concerning the case of diaspora, displacement and exile writings. The study will deploy comparable literary tropes through addressing similar issues in these memoirs to prove that at least these similarities stem from a shared history of colonialism. Further, drawing upon Homi Bhabha‘s influential ideas about colonial ambivalence, hybridity and "Third place", the paper will offer an account on some of the problems suffered by any colonised person who lives in a colonial society for a long time through a special focus on the authors' personal lives. Finally, the paper will discuss the life of the female authors as being cultural mediators in the way they functioned as interpreters of the norms of their own cultures by revealing their personal stories as migrant writers.

  • 35 Ahmadiyya
    Malaysian Journal of International Relations, Volume 6, 2018, 35-46 ISSN 2289-5043 (Print); ISSN 2600-8181 (Online) AHMADIYYA: GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF A PERSECUTED COMMUNITY Abdul Rashid Moten ABSTRACT Ahmadiyya, a group, founded in 19th century India, has suffered fierce persecution in various parts of the Muslim world where governments have declared them to be non-Muslims. Despite opposition from mainstream Muslims, the movement continued its proselytising efforts and currently boasts millions of followers worldwide. Based on the documentary sources and other scholarly writings, this paper judges the claims made by the movement's founder, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, analyses the consequences of the claims, and examines their proselytizing strategies. This paper found that the claims made by Mirza were not in accordance with the belief of mainstream Muslims, which led to their persecution. The reasons for their success in recruiting millions of members worldwide is to be found in their philanthropic activities, avoidance of violence and pursuit of peace inherent in their doctrine of jihad, exerting in the way of God, not by the sword but by the pen. Keywords: Ahmadiyya, jihad, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, Pakistan, philanthropy INTRODUCTION The Qur’an categorically mentions that Muhammad is the last in the line of the Prophets and that no prophet will follow him. Yet, there arose several individuals who claimed prophethood in Islam. Among the first to claim Prophecy was Musailama al-Kazzab, followed by many others including Mirza Hussein Ali Nuri who took the name Bahaullah (glory of God) and formed a new religion, the Bahai faith. Many false prophets continued to raise their heads occasionally but failed to make much impact until the ascendance of the non-Muslim intellectual, economic and political forces particularly in the 19th century A.D.

  • Palestinian Christians and the Old Testament
    1 The Elements of Palestinian Christian Hermeneutics of the Old Testament The reader will at once recognize the inherent complexity of the title, “Palestinian Christian Hermeneutics of the Old Testament.” It contains at least four aspects. The first, and the foundation of the present discussion, is the question of hermeneutics, or as more generally described, the “art of understanding.”1 The second facet of the title qualifies the task of hermeneutics and limits its scope to the understanding of a given text, namely, in this case, one in the Old Testament. This is further qualified by the interpretation of the Old Testament from a Christian perspective, and if that were not multi- faceted enough, the Christian hermeneutics of the Old Testament under consideration here is modified by yet another factor, namely, 1. Hermeneutics can have two dimensions. “Used in a narrower sense, hermeneutics can refer to the method and techniques used to interpret a text. In a wider sense, it can refer to the conditions which make understanding possible and even to the process of understanding as a whole.” Bernard C. Lategan, “Hermeneutics,” 3: 149. ABD 3 PALESTINIAN CHRISTIANS AND THE OLD TESTAMENT a class of individuals and communities commonly identified as “Arab Christians” who live in Israel and Palestine. As the title states, this chapter examines Palestinian Christian hermeneutics of the Old Testament (PCHOT). Each of the aforementioned components has a significant bearing on PCHOT and thereby warrants a brief explanation. As intimated above, hermeneutics

Marteijn PhD Candidate, School of Divinity, Centre for the Study of World Christianity, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, UK [email protected] Abstract Palestinian Christians are a minority of approximately 1 or 2% in a context marked by conflict, expulsions, and ongoing emigration. Despite all this, Palestinian Christians have made a significant contribution to society in the spheres of politics, the arts, sci- ence, and social welfare. Moreover, from the 1980s onwards, this Palestinian context of struggle has also been the source for the emergence of a socially and politically committed contextual theology. This article analyses the development of Palestinian contextual theology by examining theological publications by Palestinian theologians. It identifies liberation, reconciliation, witness, ecumenism, and interfaith-dialogue as some of the dominant theological themes. What unites these publications is a theological engagement with the Palestinian Christian identity in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Keywords contextual theology – Israeli-Palestinian conflict – Kairos theology – Palestinian Christianity – Palestinian theology – public theology 1 An Arab Christian Awakening Palestinian Christians feel deeply rooted in Palestinian society. They under- stand themselves as part of the Palestinian community and actively contribute to its flourishing.

  • The Purpose of This Thesis Is to Trace Lady Katherine Grey's Family from Princess Mary Tudor to Algernon Seymour a Threefold A
    ABSTRACT THE FAMILY OF LADY KATHERINE GREY 1509-1750 by Nancy Louise Ferrand The purpose of this thesis is to trace Lady Katherine Grey‘s family from Princess Mary Tudor to Algernon Seymour and to discuss aspects of their relationship toward the hereditary descent of the English crown. A threefold approach was employed: an examination of their personalities and careers, an investigation of their relationship to the succession problem. and an attempt to draw those elements together and to evaluate their importance in regard to the succession of the crown. The State Papers. chronicles. diaries, and the foreign correspondence of ambassadors constituted the most important sources drawn upon in this study. The study revealed that. according to English tradition, no woman from the royal family could marry a foreign prince and expect her descendants to claim the crown. Henry VIII realized this point when he excluded his sister Margaret from his will, as she had married James IV of Scotland and the Earl of Angus. At the same time he designated that the children of his younger sister Mary Nancy Louise Ferrand should inherit the crown if he left no heirs. Thus, legally had there been strong sentiment expressed for any of Katherine Grey's sons or descendants, they, instead of the Stuarts. could possibly have become Kings of England upon the basis of Henry VIII's and Edward VI's wills. That they were English rather than Scotch also enhanced their claims.

Stéphanie Anna Loddo École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales, Paris DO NOT QUOTE WITHOUT THE AUTHOR’S PERMISSION © Stéphanie Loddo 2006 The phenomenon of diasporization has received a great deal of scholarly attention as an epitome of globalization and for its impact on cultural production. Diasporas are considered by some as “exemplary communities of the transnational moment” (Tölölyan 1991: 5), while others see diasporas as the sites for the production of new forms of culture that in the future will replace or transcend the cultures of nation-states (Appadurai 1996).

  • Anglicans in Palestine/Israel and Christian–Muslim Relations
    ATR/96.1 Between a Rock and a Hard Place: Anglicans in Palestine/Israel and Christian–Muslim Relations Yvonne Yazbeck Haddad* This study provides an overview of the current Christian–Muslim relations in Palestine/Israel and the efforts to establish dialogue between the two communities under the Israeli occupation. It takes note of the catastrophic impact of the establishment of the State of Israel on Christians in the Holy Land, their forced expul- sion, Israeli anti-goyem policies, and the presence and theological teachings of the Christian Embassy in Jerusalem, as well as the impact of Western Christian support for Israel on the dialogue. The “Arab Spring” rolled eastward from Tunisia and toppled sev- eral autocratic dictatorial regimes, leaving in its wake turbulence and turmoil and in its aftermath what appears to be an increasingly vul- nerable indigenous Christian population. Once again the Christians of the Middle East found themselves under scrutiny, caught between discredited regimes that had provided a modicum of security and sta- bility in their lives and new orders struggling to get established with no compass to reveal future direction. As a consequence, insecurity, apprehension, and fear of an unpredictable future have intensified the emigration of Christians to Australasia, Canada, Europe, and the United States, further depleting the number of Christians in the Arab world. The emigration of Christians from the Arab world to the West is not a new phenomenon. It has its roots in the nineteenth century with the intrusion of foreign powers into the Ottoman Empire and the scramble by the various European nations to claim local Christian com- munities as protégés to be protected and/or manipulated.
