1991-1992 Catalog j, ·-. - .I . ·, ; . ·· . GENERAL CATALOG COlLEGE OF THE SEQUOIAS . Welcome to College of the Sequoias \ College of Sequoias ~; is part of this nation's largest system of higher education. In California alone 1.5 million students enroll in community colleges every year. COS now serves more than 8,500 students. For the past four years, COS has experienced significant enrollment increases placing a greater demand on the existing facilities and equipment at the college. With the UC and CSU systems facing decreased funding and the rise in unemployment, more and more students will turn to community colleges for lower­ division course requirements and retraining in new technologies. The COS Board of Trustees supports an ag­ gressive facilities construction plan to accommodate the Keith Sheffield/Campus Staff increasing number of students seeking admission. Construction and planning for future construction will be a way of life at COS for the next several years. Recognizing the need for innovative solutions in difficult times, COS and Fresno State University have formed a partnership allowing many residents to further their education on the COS campus by taking upper division courses offered by Fresno State University. COS will continue to explore partnerships with business and education with an emphasis on building for the future while adapting to the changing needs of the residents of our District. Robert A.

  • 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.

  • Islam and the Salvation of Others
    CHAPTER 6 Islam and the Salvation of Others Mohammad Hassan Khalil Abstract A prevailing view in Islamic thought is that at least some non-Muslims will be saved in the afterlife. I submit that the most often-cited scriptural justification for this inclusiv- ist doctrine has been Quran 17:15, specifically the declaration that God does not punish individuals until He has sent them a messenger. Yet since it is not entirely clear what this entails (at what point does one qualify as having received God’s message, and spe- cifically the final message revealed to Muhammad?), Muslim theologians have arrived at a plurality of inclusivisms. In the present article I examine three particularly influ- ential premodern versions of Islamic inclusivism, all of which are commonly cited in modern Muslim writings. Two of these, one espoused by Ibn Taymiyya and the other by Ibn Arabi, correspond roughly to opposing ends of the inclusivist spectrum. The third, championed by Ghazali, represents a middle-of-the-road approach. What happens to non-Muslims in the afterlife? Are they all doomed? Or are they just as likely as Muslims to inhabit Paradise? The disparate responses that Muslim theologians provide to these and related questions reveal the great soteriological schisms that exist in Islamic thought: Exclusivists hold that only Muslims will be saved; inclusivists maintain that salvation may be attained by “sincere,” “righteous” non-Muslims, who, for whatever reason, could not have been expected to recognize the truth of Muhammad’s message; and plural- ists assert that, whatever the circumstances, there are multiple paths that are equally salvific.

Shahadah. of Allah’ What is Tawhid? In its basic form, Tawhid is a very simple idea. It is just the assertion that there is only one God. Islam is therefore a monot heist ic religion. This is a religion that only believes in one God. How is Islam different to Christianity? Like Islam, Christianity is a monotheistic religion that only believes in one God. However, to Christians, God has three parts (Father, Son and Holy Spirit). Muslims deny this as seen in the part of the t ext under neat h. To Muslims, God i s one being and cannot be separated.

    THE FIFTEENTH CENTURY By S. Abul Hasan Ali Nadwi ACADEMY OF ISLAMIC RESEARCH Et PUBLICATIONS LUCKNOW (INDIA) All Rights Reserved i11 f avour of: Academy of Islamic Research and Publications Tngore Mnrg, Nadwntul Ulama, P. O. Box No. 119, Lucknow-226 007 (India) SERlES NO. 143 Printed at : NADWA PR ESS Lucknow. (AP-NS: 58) PREFACE Celebrations in connection with the advent of the fifteenth century of Islamic Era were started well in advance, before its beginning on the 1st of Muharram 1401 A .H. (10 h November, 1980). Elaborate arrangements were started for celebrating the occasion in a befitting manner right from 1400 A.H., both within and outside the Islamic world. There were numerous political and other reasons incl uding the impact of a variety of Islamic movements which had lent an importance to this change-over (which occurs after the turn of every century) as had never been accorded earlier to the beginning of a new century. In the Arab and non-Arab countries a series of con­ ferences, maetings and seminars were planned under different pretexts, and even a secular country like India decided to celebrate the occasion as well as issue a commemorative postal stamp to mark the occasion. Several newspapers and journals published by the Muslims started preparations to bring out special issues in commemoration of the fifteenth century. I was also asked to participate in several of these conferences and to contribute to the special issues of these journals. But, in spite of world-wide rejoicing on this occasion. I could not bring myself to join the celebrations.

  • < IMAM Ja‛Far Al-Ṣādiq and the AHL Al-BAYT
    ARCHITECTS of CIVILISATION – July 2014 IMAM Ja‛far al-Ṣādiq and the AHL al-BAYT Karim Douglas Crow Ja‘far al-ṢĀDIQ (83–148 H / 702–765) was a prominent spokesman in Madinah of the Banū Hāshim – descendents of the Ahl al-Bayt or Family of God’s Messenger Muḥammad(Ṣ) – during the eighth century CE / first-half of the second century Hijrah. During his lifetime the Umayyad dynasty was vanquished by the ‘Abbāsid revolution in 132 / 750. Ja‘far received his honorific title “ṣādiq truthsayer” because of his veracity in narrating traditions, or perhaps due to his predictions reportedly verified by later events. He boasted of double maternal descent from the first Caliph Abū Bakr al- Ṣiddīq(r.ḍ.) through his mother Umm Farwah bint al-Qāsim b. Muḥammad b. Abī Bakr, and through her mother Asmā′ bint ‘Abd al-Raḥmān b. Abī Bakr, affirming “Abū Bakr bore me twice.” Ja‘far reportedly declared: “I am not hoping for anything through the intercession of ‘Alī (on Judgement Day) save that I hope the same through the intercession of Abū Bakr.” Ṣādiq was esteemed among majority Sunnī Muslims as a paragon of exemplary wisdom, particularly among the Ṣūfīs who revered his reputation for spiritual initiation and for esoteric elucidation (ta′wīl) of the Qur′an. As the direct descendent of the Prophet Muḥammad(Ṣ) al-Ṣādiq is also venerated as the sixth spiritual-chief or imām of the Imāmīyah (Twelver Shi‘ah), or fifth imam of the Ismā‘īlīyah Shi‘ah, both of whose doctrines he clearly helped establish. The Ja‘farī legal school of the Imāmīyah is named after him; while the latter trace their imamate through his first-born son Ismā‘īl b.

  • SHIRK: Prohibited in Islam
    Bismillah-ir-Rahman-ir-Raheem SHIRK: Prohibited In Islam 1. Shirk is an unforgivable sin in Islam. 2. The foundation of Islam all over the world is the centrality of One God (Allah) and this principle applies throughout both the known parts of the universe to mankind and the unexplored parts of the universe to mankind. 3. One God (Allah) is everywhere, on earth and throughout the universes. 4. In short, Shirk is any form of practising idolatry or polytheism. 5. The centrality of One God also means that God is the single Supreme Power, Whose greatness is beyond all material descriptions known to humanity. 6. Shirk also means the deification of any person, object, idol, statue, picture, Trinity or other deification fractions of God. 7. Inclusion of any partners to God, such as a consort or any off-spring (i.e. a son of God) are all practises of Shirk and there is no forgiveness for Shirk. 8. Some people also worship few of the great scholars of religion (Pir worship), including the graves of those who have died; and this aspect is strictly prohibited in Islam as yet another practice of Shirk. 9. It is important to note what Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) directly stated about Shirk. There are several Hadith and here is an example: “Whoever dies claiming that Allah has a rival, will enter Hell.” This is in Hadith Sahih Bukhari 4497 and Hadith Sahih Muslim 92. 10. Further, the wearing of taweez as amulets for self-protection is another example of Shirk. 11. Belief in astrology and belief and practising citations in horoscopes are also examples of Shirk, practised by many religious and cultural communities.

  • Understanding Shirk
    Islamic Centre – Leicester Towards Understand Aqeedah – Session II Programme Two; Understanding Shirk. 2.0 Shirk- Introduction. Shirk is to associate somebody or something in Allh’s inherent nature or in any of His attributes. This is the greatest of all crimes according to Allh, as the Qur’n states that He is willing to forgive all types of sins except Shirk (4:116). This fact is sufficient to warn us of the magnitude of this crime. 2.1 Defining Shirk; Imam al-Qurtub"’s definition. The Qur’anic scholar Allama Qurtub( (d. 673 A.H./1273 C.E.) offers a detailed definition of Shirk in his Tafs(r, al-Jmi’ li Ahkm al-Qur’n. 1 He writes that there are three different stages or forms of Shirk, and all three and forbidden (Harm). (i) To consider a being other than Allh (a tree, idol, person, jinn etc.) worthy of worship. This is the major form of Shirk, and the type of Shirk committed by the people of the Jhiliyya period. 2 (ii) To consider another being other than Allh can perform and create certain actions independently (without Allh), even if the person does not believe that that person/being is a God. (iii) Lastly, Shirk in worship, and this is Riy (showing off). This too is a form of Shirk. From this we can appreciate that Shirk is when someone (i) ascribes a partner to Allh in His essence or attributes (ii) with the knowledge and belief that this being/object is worthy of such accolade and that it can be done independently of Allh.

  • Rethinking the Authority of Muslim Religious Scholars and Mosques in Shaping Religious Discourse in Pakistan: an Ethnographic Account
    Muhammad Bilal: Rethinking the authority of Muslim religious scholars and mosques in shaping religious discourse in Pakistan: An ethnographic account Rethinking the authority of Muslim religious scholars and mosques in shaping religious discourse in Pakistan: An ethnographic account Muhammad Bilal Fatima Jinnah Women University, [email protected] Abstract The mosque is the fundamental institution in any Islamic society, its role extending far beyond its function as a religious centre. The question that arises for this ethnographic study in Pakistan is whether the mosque is still as central as it was in the past, or as it is understood to be. A similar question can be raised for those Muslim religious scholars trained in Islamic law who frequent the mosque and serve the religious community as prayer leaders. This study explores the part played by the mosque – and by the Muslim religious scholars – in the life of worship and, beyond that, in the everyday social struc- ture. The study suggests that no longer can the Muslim religious scholars or mosques be called representative of Pakistani society. KEYWORDS: Muslim religious scholars, mosque, Islam, everyday life, religious schools, Pakistan Introduction In each neighbourhood (maHallah)1 of Muslim Town, there are mosques affiliated with rival tendencies of practice within Islam. In ordinary everyday speech, these tendencies are referred to as sect or school of thought (maslak; plural masaalik). The sectarian af- filiations of the mosques are typically indicated at their main doors. Two principal divi- sions within the Sunni branch of Islam (which are also referred to as the people of the Sunnah (Ahl-e-Sunnat) are identified at the mosque (masjid; plural masaajid) doors as Deoband and Barelvi.
